The Trans-Siberian Orchestra will perform its album Beethoven’s Last Night.

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra is going to recreate the final night of Ludwig van Beethoven’s life at the MTS Centre this spring.

The orchestral prog-metal group will perform its entire 2000 concept album, Beethoven’s Last Night, in its entirety at the MTS Centre on April 13, according to the band’s official website. Ticket details weren’t released.

The band, featuring Jon Oliva and Al Pitrelli of the band Savatage, is known for its extravagant live shows and Christmas rock operas. Beethoven’s Last Night is the imagined story of the composer’s final night alive in 1827 following the completion of his Tenth Symphony.
