Join us for a thrilling evening of classical music from the Romantic era, featuring Brahms Symphony No. 1 and Beethoven Symphony No. 8.
Beethoven’s Eighth is pure fun. It’s got that famous “tick-tock” movement that sounds like a metronome, but somehow becomes completely magical. This is Beethoven when he’s not trying to change the world—just enjoying himself and showing off his incredible skill.
Brahms No. 1 premiered in 1876, marking his debut as a symphonic composer. The symphony famously took 14 years to compose, as Brahms struggled under the burden of being seen as Beethoven’s musical heir. He deeply admired Beethoven's music and sought to carry on his legacy while also carving out his own path as one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era.
