Concerto Copenhagen: 1774 – a symphonic year

Take a unique musical journey back to the decisive year 1774, when the symphony really became its own independent genre.

Symphonies were formerly used as opening music for other settings, but in the late 18th century the form of the symphony was dramatically expanded and refined. The symphonies from 1774 show an incredible variety, and this evening you can look forward to experiencing four wonderful symphonies from a time when a composer, if he lived long enough, could write over 100 symphonies.
