Beethoven year extended
The Supervisory Board of Beethoven Jubiläums GmbH has decided that the celebrations in honor of Beethoven's 250th birthday will continue until September 2021.
It is of great concern to him that as many of the projects planned so far can be realized, writes the Supervisory Board. For example, Beethoven's 250th baptismal anniversary, December 17, 2020, will not be the finale, but a highlight of the celebrations of the Bonn-born composer.
Beethoven Jubiläums GmbH is also sticking to the concert planned for this day with Daniel Barenboim and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra in the presence of the Federal President as patron of the anniversary.
The BTHVN2020 program comprises 300 projects. Updates to the program planning are published in the central event calendar on www.BTHVN2020.de pictured.
