A true 'apotheosis of the dance' in the words of Richard Wagner, Beethoven's Seventh has enjoyed perennial popularity ever since its premiere - unlike his sole ballet, The Creatures of Prometheus, of which only the overture has remained (more or less) familiar to us. To offer a new version of a key work in Beethoven's corpus while reviving the complete version of one of his most unjustly forgotten masterpieces: such is the challenge brilliantly taken up by the musicians of the Freiburger Barockorchester, under the direction of their Konzertmeister Gottfried von der Goltz.

Véritable "apothéose de la danse" selon les mots de Richard Wagner, la Septième de Beethoven n'a jamais vu sa popularité décroître depuis sa création… contrairement à son unique ballet, ces Créatures de Prométhée dont seule l'ouverture nous était restée (un peu) familière. Proposer une nouvelle version d'un incontournable du corpus beethovénien tout en ressuscitant la version intégrale de l'un de ses chefs-d'œuvre les plus injustement oubliés : tel est le défi relevé avec brio par les musiciens du Freiburger Barockorchester, sous la direction de leur premier violon Gottfried von der Goltz.

Beethovens 7. Sinfonie, eine veritable „Apotheose des Tanzes" (Richard Wagner), hat seit ihrer Uraufführung nie an Beliebtheit eingebüßt, ganz im Gegensatz zu seinem einzigen Ballett, den Geschöpfen des Prometheus, von dem uns einzig die Ouvertüre (ein wenig) vertraut geblieben ist. Eine neue Lesart eines Schlüsselwerks von Beethoven zu präsentieren sowie eines seiner am meisten zu Unrecht vergessenen Hauptwerke in Gänze wieder aufleben zu lassen: Diese Herausforderung meistern die Mitglieder des Freiburger Barockorchesters unter der Leitung ihres Konzertmeisters Gottfried von der Goltz mit Bravour.
