  • Description

    In this complete recording, Beethoven's incidental music to Goethe's "Egmont", which includes the popular and well-known overture, can be experienced in its entirety. CD1 offers the complete version with declamation and music, while CD2 features only Beethoven's music. The box also includes a recording of Beethoven's overture "Zur Namensfeier", Op. 115.

    In September 1809, the Vienna Hofburg Theatre commissioned Ludwig van Beethoven to create new incidental music for Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's "Egmont". The music itself makes it clear that this commission was close to Beethoven's heart - it far exceeds the level of incidental music common at that time. That applies not only to the compositional demands but also to the relationship of the music to the drama.
