NOTE: Due to the current pandemic situation, Basel Symphony Orchestra, together with Basler Gesangverein and Knabenkantorei Basel, have decided to withdraw the planned performance of Hans Huber's oratorio Weissagung und Erfüllung from the programme.
Instead, Beethoven's 3rd Symphony, the Eroica, will be performed alongside Samuel Barber's organ concerto Toccata Festiva.
Updated programme:
Samuel Barber (1910-1981):
Toccata Festiva (1960)
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827):
Symphony No. 3 Eb major, Eroica, op. 55 (1802/03)
