2027 is a Beethoven year, died in 1827. In May 2027, Copenhagen Soloists will celebrate it with two symphonies -- No. 4 and 7. Copenhagen Soloists is an ensemble that specializes in playing on historical instruments according to so-called "historically informed practice". The ensemble's performances of classical and romantic repertoire have been groundbreaking within the national music scene due to their special performance practice. About the ensemble's performance of Mozart's Requiem in a packed Symphonic Hall in Aarhus in 2019, reviewer Rachel Einarsson wrote in Jyllandsposten: "Five stars to the death-mass" and "a welcome addition to the musical offerings". Beethoven's Symphony No. 4 is one of the more rarely performed of Beethoven's symphonies. However, it can be mentioned that later composers such as Mendelssohn, Schumann, and Berlioz admired the symphony greatly, and Berlioz considered the heavenly second movement as "a sigh of Archangel Michael." It also contains Beethoven's characteristic surprise moments as well as audacity, expressed especially in the finale. Symphony No. 7 is one of the most popular of Beethoven's symphonies, which he himself regarded as one of his best works. It contains colossal energy, not least in the dancing second movement and the unceasing finale - where Wagner chose to call the symphony "the apotheosis of dance."
