About

Music Director Giancarlo Guerrero leads a fascinating look into two of Beethoven’s brilliant, but less well-known symphonies. On the 200th anniversary of Beethoven's death, discover these two works of genius, every bit as deserving of celebration as his more famous symphonies. The extraordinary Second Symphony was composed in 1802 as Beethoven’s hearing loss worsened. The Eighth Symphony was one of Beethoven’s favorites for its quirky, fun-loving nature. He described this rowdy work as “unbuttoned!”
