A JOYOUS TOUR OF ALL NINE SYMPHONIES!

Bernard Haitink celebrates his four-year tenure as principal conductor of the CSO with a three-week festival dedicated to the most beloved composer of all time. In addition to the complete symphonic cycle, we feature the Tempest Piano Sonata performed by Ingrid Fliter; a Beethoven Chamber Music Showcase with the Brentano String Quartet and pianist Jonathan Biss; and a series of talks, interviews and discussions exploring Beethoven�s extraordinary musical genius.

The CSO is delighted to acknowledge Sandra and Earl Rusnak, Jr. for their support and chairmanship of the Beethoven Festival.

The Beethoven Festival is sponsored in part by a generous grant from The Chicago Community Trust.
