Beethoven Coming UP at Atlanta Symphony Orchestra

May 20th, 2010

The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra is one of the city’s primary cultural establishments and also one of its impressive and prestigious professional arts companies. In addition to the great concerts it has, which frequently feature top professional and well known guest artists, there are other programs and events that it hosts and sponsors throughout the year. The various educational programs are some of the most respected of their kind and as is true for most quality music institutions, there is a strong focus on the new generation of musicians. Attending a symphony concert is one of the common agenda items for many of the guests in the Atlanta hotels and program schedule information is frequently available at the front desks.

One of the special events provided by the Atlanta Symphony is the Symphony Socials, which are incredibly popular with patrons. These events allow attendees to experience great music by the orchestra and also to mix it up with other young professionals. In addition to all of the great special programs and educational offerings provided by this orchestra, the season itself is incredibly exciting and enough to keep audiences entertained, inspired and coming back for more.

The performances of Love Blooms: Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto 2 with Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet Suite came to a close this weekend, however the season is far from over and there are many great events remaining on the schedule. Included with this month’s future offerings are Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. One of the performances of this amazing work will also offer the popular Inside the Music Pre-Concert Talk. This educational and interesting talks are free to ticket holders and offer insights into the music they are about to hear. Beethoven is well known and to this day loved for the incredible passion of his music and the tremendous feelings they continue to inspire. This can be even more meaningful to listeners when they have more of an understanding of the work they are listening to.
