Park Avenue Chamber Symphony Announces INSIDE BEETHOVEN'S 7th with David Bernard and PACS

Do you miss live classical music? Are you growing tired of static video streams to quell your thirst for something that resembles a live concert? Be sure to catch the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony's next INTERACTIVE Livestream-INSIDE BEETHOVEN'S 7th AND MORE on Saturday, February 6th at 3PM (access tickets and more information are available here: https://bit.ly/PACSLivestreamFeb2021. In this event, you will not only experience an exciting program performed live with outstanding production quality, but you will be able to interact with the musicians as you explore Beethoven's exciting Seventh Symphony, Holst's brilliant First Suite and Wood's evocative tone poem "Mannin Veen".

This is an online event like no other. November's event brought together audience members from all over New York and as far as Paris and Moscow, to experience a performance both as listeners and active participants. Take a look at this video with highlights from the November event, BEETHOVEN'S BOMBSHELL:

"During this pandemic, where many orchestras are prohibited from having 'in-person' audiences, we are all looking for ways to recapture the thrill of live performances," says David Bernard, music director of the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony and InsideOut Concerts. "For our November event, we focused on bringing just the right combination of digital technologies, interactive format, and live elements to our audience members so they not only felt they were in the room with us, but also were able to interact and shape the event directly. And it was a huge success-audience members were moved to tears through the immersive and interactive experience we created," says Bernard.

Audience participants will be encouraged to interact with the conductor and the musicians through "audience avatars"-surrogate audience members who will field remove audience member observations, questions and comments throughout the event.
