Artists / Performers
Event Details
The great composer, conductor and teacher Nadia Boulanger said, ?A genius can only be original, therefore a genius need only try to imitate in order to be original.? Intended as an homage to his illustrious predecessors Mozart and Haydn, Beethoven?s First Symphony was, inescapably, original. Host Rob Kapilow explores how this symphony ? which launched the symphonic career of the young Beethoven in Vienna in 1800 ? honored the Viennese tradition in a voice that was unmistakably original and uniquely his own.
