The works of Ludwig van Beethoven are among the most played and the most listened to, and his personality has always been a subject of fascination and admiration. What has made his music so universal and timeless? Who is the person hidden behind this musical genius? Beethoven Reloaded explores these questions by talking to audiences and performers around the world. At the same time, critics and historians retrace Beethoven’s career and highlight the revolutionary and avant-garde aspects of his music, as we listen to his best-known pieces for piano, chamber group, and symphony orchestra. A spectacular documentary that casts a contemporary eye on the “Beethoven phenomenon” and is addressed to both music lovers and the general public
