Beethoven's 5th

October 9th, 2003

Program:

Arriaga - Los esclavos felices

Haydn - 85th Symphony, La Reine

Beethoven - 5th Symphony

Orchestra: Trondheim Philharmonic

Conductor: Walter Weller

It was a pleasant evening with Beethoven and Haydn. It's been a long time since I've been to a concert and we were almost late as well. But once it got started it was nice to be back. I did not know the two preceeding pieces, but Haydn was done rather well. Then the highlight of the evening, Beethoven's 5th and I was a little disappointed. It would have liked it bolder, bold IS beautiful. With a work like that one would like them to let go a good amount, to let the music really speak for itself, not be bound by the interpretation so much.

Next week it's Mozart's 40th, I'm really looking forward to it.
