Ring in the New Year in a joyous fashion with Seattle Symphony and Beethoven's Ninth
End 2018 on a jubilant, life-affirming note in the company of the Seattle Symphony as they perform Beethoven's uplifting paean to the triumph of the human spirit, helmed by Associate conductor Alastair Willis. They'll be joined by soprano Yasko Sato, mezzo-soprano Eve Gigliotti and the Seattle Symphony Chorale amongst others.
A declaration of universal brotherhood in the face of Europe's oppressive political environment at the time of its writing, the symphony is home to one of the most recognisable passages of music of all time, the Ode To Joy. The glorious choral masterwork is bound to raise spirits and send audiences home renewed and refreshed.
