About the concert
In this concert, part of the Essentials series, you can get to know Hector Berlioz’s opium-dream masterpiece, Symphonie Fantastique, performed by the Concertgebouw Orchestra with Antonio Pappano conducting. With some background before the concert starts (note: in Dutch).
Essentials
The Essentials series introduces you to the masterpieces you will be happy to know, performed by the world-famous Concertgebouw Orchestra and complete with a lively introduction by the incomparable Thomas Vanderveken. At Essentials we welcome a new generation of music lovers, and the concerts typically have a pleasant informal atmosphere.
Obsessive infatuation
Hector Berlioz’ passions ran high. Indeed, he turned his obsessive infatuation into a musical vision, the artist descending into a series of increasingly hallucinatory dreams, culminating in a maniacal nightmare. Sound strange? The work would become a huge success, and has remained so for 200 years. The Symphonie Fantastique is not only groundbreaking, but also irresistible. Sir Antonio Pappano is the perfect conductor for such theatrical music.
Essentials starts at 9 p.m. with an imaginative introduction to the programme (in Dutch).
