Los Angeles Philharmonic: Beethoven's 9th July 10, 2012

The opening of the classical season is big...Beethoven big. After setting the stage with music by three gifted contemporary women composers, Slatkin leads Beethoven's epic, world-changing symphony, the beloved Ninth. For the choral finale, with its famous 'Ode to Joy,' the LA Phil and the Getty have commissioned video imagery inspired by Gustav Klimt's stunning Beethoven Frieze, in honor of the artist's 150th birthday.
