Have you ever listened to a symphony and wanted to know more about it?

We will be delving into what makes Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 so great. A guest speaker will give a talk, along with example musical excerpts from the orchestra.

SBMS will then give a full performance of, in Beethoven’s own words, “one of my best works.”

This concert is sponsored by the Hervey Benham Charitable Trust.
