This programme explores the question of how Beethoven’s ideas continue to influence us today. The focus is on the character of Leonore from 'Fidelio', who stands for freedom and the struggle against oppression. Arnold Schoenberg later took up these ideas in his 'Ode to Napoleon'. Thinkers such as Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and Friedrich Hölderlin also shaped this era. Beethoven used these influences to create a new musical language that still feels modern today.

- Friedrich Hölderlin, texts
