From Fire to Joy invites audiences on a transformative journey through Beethoven’s music—from mythic origins to universal brotherhood. The evening begins with the spirited Overture to The Creatures of Prometheus, celebrating the symbolic gift of fire—creativity, knowledge, and defiance. The Piano Concerto No. 4 follows with its quiet, introspective voice: a musical meditation on struggle and resilience, where dialogue replaces conflict. The program culminates in Beethoven’s monumental Symphony No. 9, where the composer—deaf and isolated—reaches outward to proclaim a vision of unity and joy. This concert is not only a tribute to Beethoven’s genius but a reflection on the enduring human capacity for hope, transformation, and connection.
