The RTÉ Concert Orchestra Presents Beethoven Night Featuring John O’Conor
Celebrating University Concert Hall's 30th Anniversary, the RTÉ Concert Orchestra invites you to an evening of Beethoven featuring internationally renowned pianist John O'Conor and conducted by Joshua Gersen. A force of nature, an innovator and a revolutionary genius, Beethoven fought crippling depression and deafness to compose some of the greatest, most exhilarating and memorable music ever written. Widely recognised as one of the great Beethoven interpreters of our time, John O’Conor performs Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.3 in a programme that brings together some of the most heroic music from this titan of composition.
