Share1. Beethoven and Mahler
Two life-affirming musical tales narrated by two passionate storytellers. James Ehnes says of the Beethoven Violin Concerto, “It’s an incredibly uplifting, optimistic piece of music, one that makes you feel good about mankind.” Mahler’s First Symphony expresses a vast range of human emotion, from innocence to sorrow to triumph. “In Mahler,” says Music Director Stéphane Denève, “there is nowhere to hide. You must live all of his emotions.”

5. Beethoven's Ninth - Ode to Joy
In a cramped apartment, a man hunches over papers. At 52, Beethoven looks older—he is in constant pain, and rarely appears in public. He is poring over a copy of the popular poem “Ode to Joy” by Friedrich Schiller. His new symphony will be an ambitious, experimental, political work. It will be without precedent, written for orchestra, chorus, and soloists. Its joyful celebration of community will cross the globe. It will change music forever.
