To mark the 200th anniversary of Ludwig van Beethoven’s death.
music Ludwig van Beethoven
piano Louis Lortie
The profound connection with the original structure and material returns in the second tribute to Beethoven, performed on the piano by Louis Lortie. A world-renowned Franco-Canadian pianist, acclaimed by critics for the clarity of his musical thinking and his highly personal stylistic signature, Lortie approaches this programme with a powerful and lucid interpretative force. Through his performance of the ‘Eroica’ Variations, Op. 35, and the monumental Third Symphony in Franz Liszt’s historic transcription, the listener witnesses a monumental act of excavation. Stripped of its orchestral garb, the symphonic edifice reveals its primordial framework. It is a return to the earth spearheaded by Liszt’s genius: an act of critical devotion that penetrates the structural roots of symphonic music to restore its raw, compelling and revolutionary power.

The Teatro Regio in Parma is fully accessible. From the entrance, a straight, level path leads directly to the stalls, where four seats are reserved for wheelchair users. A seat is reserved for a companion in the row adjacent to each seat designated for disabled spectators. The companion must remain present throughout the entire visit to the theatre if the spectator is unable to move independently.
Spectators with temporary mobility impairments who hold a ticket or season ticket of any category (stalls, box, gallery) must notify the Box Office in good time; the Box Office reserves the right to change seat allocations where necessary in accordance with safety regulations. The Theatre also reserves the right to alter the number of available seats for technical or staging requirements.
Please also note that the layout of the emergency exits does not allow spectators entering the theatre in a wheelchair to sit down independently in a seat; therefore, to ensure they can leave the building as quickly as possible, such spectators are required to remain seated in their wheelchair for the entire duration of the performance. Similarly, spectators using mobility aids must take their seats in the reserved areas, which allow the aid to be stored nearby for rapid use in the event of an emergency. To use these seats, a prior request must be made by email to the Box Office (biglietteria@teatroregioparma.it), which will process the request and respond by allocating the most suitable seat in accordance with safety regulations and subject to availability. A standard ticket purchased by means other than those indicated above does not guarantee access to the Theatre for people using wheelchairs or mobility aids.
