Ludwig van Beethoven — Symphony No. 6 in F major, Op. 68 "Pastorale"
Under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle, the great Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra performs cornerstones of the symphonic repertoire and the US premiere of a new work by composer Thomas Adès, co-commissioned by Carnegie Hall. Hear Beethoven's Sixth Symphony, "Pastoral," a five-movement masterpiece and one of the composer's most cherished creations, and Wagner's Prelude and Liebestod, the opening and climax of his operatic wonder Tristan und Isolde. Of the illustrious pairing of Adès and Rattle, The Guardian recently wrote: "Classical music has many stars. Yet true creative thinkers, who mold the cultural landscape, are a different species."
