Explore the musical connections between composers. Subito Con Forza by Unsuk Chin is a tribute to Beethoven written in honor of his 250th birthday. This work will follow Beethoven’s Coriolan Overture. Schumann and Brahms were tied together personally and professionally. Schumann’s Symphony No. 4 was written in 1841, then greatly revised and published in 1851. In 1891, however, Brahms, who much preferred the first version, published it against the wishes of Schumann’s wife, Clara. One of Brahms’s most beloved choral works, Schicksalslied, will be performed with the Syracuse University Oratorio Society.
