Although the title of each year edition of the Ludwig van Beethoven Easter Festival is different all of them are based on a fixed formula: solo, chamber, symphony and oratorio concerts are accompanied by an exhibition of sketches, manuscripts and first editions at the Jagiellonian Library. The whole is completed by International Musicological Symposium giving musical, scientific and humanistic view of Beethoven’s music and its influence on the art of other composers. The fruits of symposium are academic books documenting sessions reports (1st book contains reports from 1997, 1998, 1999, 2nd – from 2000, 2001, 2002) and published in two language versions: Polish and German.
The keynote of 9th International Musicological Symposium is The Music of Beethoven Between the North and the South of Europe.
