Civic Plays Beethoven 5
Overview
Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony encompasses one of the most gripping journeys in all orchestral music, from its fateful four-note opening to the triumphant coda. Ken-David Masur opens the program with Iman Habibi’s Every Tree Speaks — a powerful, Beethoven-inspired response to the current environmental crisis — and Hindemith’s Symphonic Metamorphosis, which brings the 19th-century sounds of Weber into the modern age.
