The Choral Music of Beethoven

Listen Up: Seminars on Music is a weekly gathering of music lovers every Wednesday morning, hosted by AZMF’s Resident Artist, Josh Condon. Each session combines music history, analysis, active listening, and discussion, designed to enhance your listening experience and overall music appreciation. Listen Up covers all genres, emphasizing our common humanity across all musical styles! Coffee provided. Although Beethoven is celebrated for his symphonies, his contributions to choral music are equally remarkable. We’ll explore the monumental works Hallelujah from Christ on the Mount of Olives; Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, culminating in The Choral Fantasy, discovering how Beethoven forever expanded the expressive possibilities of the human voice.
