Symphony in 60: Beethoven's Fifth
November 21, 2019
BEETHOVEN’S FIFTH
VERDI Overture from La forza del destino
FAURÉ Suite from Pelléas et Mélisande
BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 5
Thomas Wilkins, conductor
SYMPHONY IN 60 Verdi’s vigorous overture to The Force of Destiny introduces the theme of fate knocking at the door, echoed in the most famous “four notes” ever composed, in Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5. The destiny of lovers Pelléas and Mélisande unfolds in a languid suite by Fauré. And we welcome guest conductor Thomas Wilkins from the Hollywood Bowl and the Boston Symphony.
