ABOUT THE EVENT
Phoenixville Public Library will host a free presentation, “Exploring the Immortally-Beloved Beethoven”, on Tuesday, December 15 at 7:00 PM. Jason C. Tramm, noted conductor and professor, will be the speaker. Tramm will explore Beethoven’s enduring legacy. Major compositions will be explored alongside life events in an attempt to view the man behind the music. As we celebrate the 250th year of Beethoven’s birth, join us as we explore one of the most important and fascinating composers.
Jason C. Tramm has been hailed as a “conductor to watch” by Symphony Magazine and “filled with Italianate passion” by the Huffington Post. Maestro Tramm’s work in the operatic, symphonic and choral realms has received critical acclaim throughout the United States and abroad. He currently serves as the Director of Choral Activities at Seton Hall University (where he was named the 2017 University Faculty Teacher of the Year), Director of Music Ministries at the Ocean Grove Great Auditorium, Artistic Director of MidAtlantic Artistic Productions, and Principal Guest Conductor of the Long Island Concert Orchestra. Pre-Covid he was highly in demand as a guest conductor, with important orchestral/opera debuts cancelled last summer in Prague, Vienna and Italy. He is the host of “Music Matters with Jason Tramm”, a podcast that explores artistic innovation under extreme circumstances, as seen through the eyes of distinguished artists.
