Programme:
Ludwig van BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 6
If someone thinks that Beethoven’s music can only be dramatic and thunderous, this is the best opportunity to join Goran Gora and get to know a different Beethoven entirely. He is not the most loquacious composer, but he did comment on his Sixth, whose full title is Pastoral Symphony, or Recollections of Country Life, that it is “more an expression of feeling than painting”. Each movement has poetic titles in addition to the habitual indication of tempo, and it only serves to prove how important this work was for the composer. The pastoral score will reflect springtime in nature, bringing joy and freshness to your ears.
