Astor Piazzolla's fiery and rhythmic tangos are performed by Åsbjørg Ryeng on bandoneon. This is followed by Ludwig van Beethoven's energetic and powerful Seventh Symphony, one of the composer's personal favourite works. Beethoven himself called it ‘one of the happiest products of my poor talents’. With its dancing rhythm and driving energy, this symphony has thrilled audiences for over 200 years.
