Beethoven’s Ninth is the unquestioned champion of the concert hall, a work that sums up the Classical age, looks forward to what would follow, and has come to represent courage, hope, and triumph around the world. Every December, innumerable Ninths are performed throughout Maestro Shimono’s homeland to mark the turn of the year. Symphony Silicon Valley last played it to packed houses for the Symphony’s 10th anniversary.
For this concert, it will be preceded by one of Dvořák’s most joyful short works, festive and deeply felt.
