KING STEPHEN (KÖNIG STEPHAN) 

With the concert "Beethoven & Kotzebue", we shed light on an exciting collaboration that took place more than 200 years ago. Namely, Ludwig van Beethoven has written music for the play King Stephen (König Stephan) of August von Kotzebue, an outstanding playwright, theatre director, and estophile, who was one of the founders of the Tallinn Professional Theatre and has worked in Tallinn and Germany. King Stephen (König Stephan) is being performed for the first time in Estonia by ERSO and the orchestra’s Chief Conductor and Artistic Director Olari Elts, young actors and musicians of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre, and the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir.
