Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony is treasured by generations of music fans for its whirling dance rhythms and majestic Allegretto movement. It finds an admirable interpreter in Czech conductor Petr Popelka, who “lets the music glow without overshadowing details” (Der Standard). Composed in his youth, Schubert's exuberant Sixth Symphony draws inspiration from Beethoven. Conductor Herbert Blomstedt has withdrawn from these concerts due to health reasons.

Ticket holders for March 5 may exchange into the March 1 or 2 concert dates, or another CSO concert this season. Learn more: cso.org/performances/23-24/cso-classical/schubert-and-beethoven
