Beethoven Symphony no.3 in E flat ‘Eroica’
Two hundred years before Live Aid, Ludwig van Beethoven organised a concert that he hoped would help lift the burden of the oppressed. For this pivotal occasion, he wrote a symphony that would encapsulate ideals of liberty in music of intense endurance and fortitude. In its volume, length and emotional power, Beethoven’s ‘Eroica’ left critics and audiences dumbfounded. Two centuries on, you can still hear why.
