Kinks and Quirks: Beethoven’s First Symphony

At First Congregational Church of Berkeley

Southside

Hear Beethoven's First Symphony exactly as early audiences did: on gut strings, valveless horns, and wooden flutes that deliver a clarity modern instruments can't replicate. Violinist Shunske Sato leads the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra through a program of witty, unpredictable classics that launched a musical revolution.
