It’s obvious that every piece of music had a first performance. But at the same time some pieces just seem to have been around forever, and it’s hard to imagine the excitement that must have surrounded their first-ever outing. Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony (you know it: da da da daaaa) would likely have been pretty shocking for its first audience. Music that was this radical, this unrelenting, this euphoric, just hadn’t been heard before. There’s no one like the charismatic Nil Venditti to make it seem like new either.
