24 Hours BEETHOVEN!

The “24 Hours Series” is back! Over the past two years, Weiwuying has invited its audience to immerse themselves in the enchanting music of SCHUBERT and MOZART, allowing them to “wander” through the Concert Hall and Recital Hall overnight. Now, in 2024, due to popular demand, the “24 Hours Series” is set to welcome a universally acclaimed classical music superstar – none other than BEETHOVEN himself!

BEETHOVEN was born in Bonn, Germany in 1770. Over the course of his extraordinary 56-year life, he shattered the conventional belief that musicians were merely intended to serve the princes and nobles, ascending to the rank of an independent artist. Across a spectrum of diverse creative realms, BEETHOVEN achieved groundbreaking milestones, leaving an indelible mark on all future composers. Remarkably, even in the face of deafness in his later years, BEETHOVEN persisted in his creative endeavors, offering compelling evidence that his music was undeniably a testament to his innermost self.
