Beethoven's Fifth
The Detroit Symphony Orchestra plays Beethoven's Fifth Symphony on Thursday, January 14, at 7:30 p.m. at Orchestra Hall in Detroit. The program also features Anna Thorvaldsdóttir's ARCHORA and Katherine Balch's violin concerto Artifacts. Tickets run $20.95 to $110.25.
This concert is a journey to beginnings. In ARCHORA, Anna Thorvaldsdóttir looks for the origins of life in music shaped by primordial forces. Katherine Balch's violin concerto Artifacts is a tribute to her friendship with DSO Concertmaster Robyn Bollinger. Beethoven's Fifth then builds a whole world from the smallest musical seed.
A 30-minute pre-concert talk starts one hour before the performance, with conductors, musicians or other experts sharing background on the music. Seating for the talk is general admission in Orchestra Hall, so you can try a different spot than your ticket. The concert is part of the PVS Classical series.
