Honolulu Symphony: Hayden's Creation November 8, 2009

Haydn's great oratorio, 'The Creation,' is a story of optimism that celebrates peace and balance in a world of universal harmony. Haydn, who considered 'The Creation' to represent the pinnacle of his career, imbued the choral masterpiece with a foundation of hopefulness that belies even the world's darkest of forces. Audiences will relish the fusion of elegance and exuberance that, even after 200 years, still delivers a wonderfully moving experience.
