$20, 30, 35

Conducted by Leon Botstein, music director

The American Symphony Orchestra's 2009–10 season at the Fisher Center is the first of a two-year journey through some of the most beautiful symphonic music ever written: between October 2009 and April 2010, the orchestra will perform the first five of Beethoven's symphonies in the acoustically exquisite Sosnoff Theater (the other four will be performed in 2010–11). Few people have had the experience of hearing all of Beethoven's symphonies performed live, let alone hearing them in relatively quick succession. It took Johannes Brahms, who venerated Beethoven, over 30 years to accomplish this feat.

Anton Bruckner
Symphony No. 3

Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphony No. 3 in E-flat Major, Op. 55 ("Eroica")
