1808 primephonic BEETHOVEN PREMIERES HIS WORKS IN A FOUR-HOUR CONCERT 22 December 1808 Ludwig van Beethoven premiered a few of his most celebrated works in Vienna, in a concert that lasted four hours. The performance at Theater an der Wien included his Fifth Symphony, Sixth Symphony, Piano Concerto and Choral Fantasy, all conducted by Beethoven himself. It was the writer E.T.A. Hoffmann who first noted down and published elements that established the principles of Romanticism in a review of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony around 18 months later, declaring it one of the most important works of the time. His terms were in contrast to the formality and restraint that were the defining features of classical forms. 1910 FIRST BROADCAST FROM NEW YORK’S METROPOLITAN OPERA 13 January 1910 The first experimental broadcasts of live performances from the stage of the Metropolian Opera New York took place.
