What would Beethoven do?
Description
Classical music doesn't exactly have a reputation for being hip. But What Would Beethoven Do? gives an old genre a new twist by exposing classical music through the eyes of renegades, from composers flirting with modern mediums, to young musicians dedicated to changing the narrative, to a man who's bringing turntables and orchestras together. This documentary captures the rise of an exciting revolution as innovative individuals break stereotypes and bring classical music to today's audience.
