Discover Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 Like Never Before

On Saturday, October 5, 2024 at 7:00 PM, La Seine Musicale invites you to a special musical event: the concert “You Think It’s Classical? Beethoven, Symphony No. 7”, conducted by the talented maestro Mathieu Herzog and performed by the Appassionato Orchestra. This concert offers a unique experience where classical music is made accessible to everyone—even to those who've never attended this kind of performance. For about 1 hour and 15 minutes, the conductor will speak directly to the audience, revealing the secrets behind the most famous works and sharing fascinating anecdotes around them.

A New Approach to Classical Music

“You Think It’s Classical?” is much more than a concert; it’s an immersion into the world of classical music where prejudice is left at the door. Mathieu Herzog and his orchestra Appassionato will guide you through Beethoven’s masterpieces, especially his famed Symphony No. 7. Herzog’s interactive presentation will make this experience unforgettable, highlighting the elements that make this symphony so special and its deep connection with cinema.

Beethoven and Cinema: A Timeless Symphony

Beethoven’s music has often been used in film because of its evocative and dramatic power. The second movement of Symphony No. 7, Allegretto, is particularly prized by filmmakers and appears in various types of films—from X-Men: Apocalypse to The King’s Speech and Lola by Jacques Demy. This haunting and sublime theme gradually spreads through all the instruments of the orchestra, creating an emotional blaze like no other.

A Joyous and Festive Work

Symphony No. 7 by Beethoven is not just about its famous Allegretto. The work as a whole is a whirlwind of joy, starting with a slow introduction that showcases the oboe before plunging into contagious euphoria that spreads throughout the orchestra. The later movements are especially festive and dance-like, with an exuberant finale used by Wes Anderson in The Darjeeling Limited. This symphony, where rhythm and dance drive the emotion, is a true celebration of music.

An Evening for Everyone, Ages 7 to 77

One of the great strengths of this concert is its accessibility. Mathieu Herzog and his orchestra Appassionato have designed this series of concerts to be enjoyed by all, from age 7 to 77, including those who have never stepped foot in a concert hall. It’s a unique opportunity to discover or rediscover classical music in a new light, in a relaxed and interactive atmosphere.
