Sonoma Paradiso Family Concert Series
Beethoven Lives Upstairs

Richard Loheyde, conductor
Classical Kids Live!

This world-famous production features a lively exchange of letters between young Christoph and his uncle about the "madman" who has moved into the upstairs apartment of Christoph's Vienna home. Through a touching correspondence dramatically underscored with the composer's most beautiful excerpts, including Moonlight Sonata, Fur Elise, and the great Fifth and Ninth symphonies, Christoph comes to understand the genius of Beethoven, the beauty of his music, and the torment of his deafness.
