The concert featured on this Carolina Live program is titled Oktoberfest, but it’s filled with music that’s wonderful any month of the year. You’ll hear Weber’s Overture to Der Freischutz, the Schicksalslied (Song of Destiny) by Brahms, Beethoven’s “warm-up” to the 9th Symphony, his stirring Choral Fantasy, plus Mendelssohn’s powerful Symphony No. 5 in d-minor. It’s a full and appetizing menu of musical delights, just right for whenever you may hear it.
