On tour with Beethoven

In their first collaboration, the Chamber Orchestra of Europe (COE) and pianist Sunwook Kim combine Beethoven’s piano concertos with works by two contemporary British composers: Anna Clyne’s string piece Stride, which is inspired by Beethoven’s music, and Helen Grime’s Elegiac Inflections, which explores the diverse sonic possibilities of a wind ensemble.

“We are particularly thankful to Hyundai Motor whose generous support has made this project possible and whose headquarters are located just down the road in Offenbach am Main.” (Chamber Orchestra of Europe)
