NSO – Beethoven & American Masters: George Walker & Beethoven's Second Symphony

Ludwig van Beethoven — Overture to Egmont, Op. 84
George Walker — Sinfonia No. 1
Ludwig van Beethoven — Coriolan Overture, Op. 62
Ludwig van Beethoven — Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 36

Beethoven's Second marks a new boldness in the composer's work. It bristles with intensity, pushing harmonic boundaries with energy, comedy, and rebellious bravado. Gianandrea Noseda pairs this dramatic piece with two of Beethoven's most famous overtures and George Walker's Sinfonia No. 2, a mysterious and hopeful masterwork.
