Details & tickets

Beethoven's ballet music "The Creatures of Prometheus" was almost forgotten. Of course - the theme of the final movement later became famous. Beethoven also made it the final theme of his Eroica. But that is almost everything.  

 

The Basel writer Alain Claude Sulzer made a virtue out of necessity and wrote a new version of the text. One could almost speak of a new, "Basel dramaturgy". Because you can expect a listening experience between newly told Prometheus mythology, performed by the great actor Peter Simonischek.
