Opening with Schoenberg’s ethereal hymn for eternal peace Friede auf Erden, this program also includes one of the most life-affirming works of music in its celebration of hope and the human spirit: Beethoven’s monumental Ninth and its celebrated "Ode to Joy." And in the hands of the legendary Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Franz Welser-Möst, this will likely be one of the most spirited and joyous performances of the season.
