Fridays with the Maestro: Beethoven’s Heroes
Course | Registration opens 12/7/2026 8:00 AM EDT
Epic adventures await! Beethoven’s sole opera, Fidelio, spins a tale that weaves together the transformative strength of love and bravery put to the test. Egmont takes you through a dramatic tale from despair to triumph. The York Symphony and Chorus bring this vivid music to life and shines a light of hope in the darkness.
Join Lawrence Golan as he discusses the work to be performed the following night at the Strand Theater.
