The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra Beethoven Symphony Cycle: 6 & 8 Nature & Play
The VSO continues their look at Beethoven as Innovator with nature’s grandeur balanced with the composer’s playful humour. His Pastoral Sixth Symphony, one of the first great programmatic symphonies, paints a vivid landscape of countryside life. After the break, delight in Beethoven’s witty Symphony No. 8, filled with plenty of rhythmic and harmonic jokes.
Conducted by Maestro Otto Tausk
