Beethoven's Fifth Symphony
Taa-taa-taa-taa… Beethoven's Fifth Symphony probably has the best-known classical intro of all time. It will be played on August 27 by the Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra. Founder Keri-Lynn Wilson also conducts Wagner’s poignant Liebestod, with soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen.

Australian Youth Orchestra
Every summer, the Concertgebouw invites numerous national and international youth orchestras to come and play. This year, the Australian Youth Orchestra performs Tchaikovsky’s autobiographical Fourth Symphony on July 23. Violin prodigy Christian Li performs as soloist in Mendelssohn’s beloved Violin Concerto, and Didgeridoo player William Barton performs Earth Cry, a powerful call to listen to Mother Earth.

About The Royal Concertgebouw
The Royal Concertgebouw was built over 135 years ago at what is now Museumplein. At that time, however, it was located in the middle of a meadow, with a ditch running in front of it and cows grazing nearby. By sheer luck, the building happened to have amazingly good acoustics, which now draws musicians and listeners from all over the world to Amsterdam.
Currently, there are about 750 concerts per year from which you can choose, even during the summer months. Come rain or shine, there is music to be enjoyed almost every night.
