The titan of the classical music world returns! Beethoven’s Leonore Overture No. 3, one of four versions for his only opera Fidelio, this one including the famous offstage trumpet signal, is followed by the ta-ta-ta-da opening of the fifth symphony. There’s no better sound than the TSO filling the Music Hall with the unparalleled might of the Fifth. Bartók’s elegant and strongly folk-music influenced Concerto for Orchestra is one of his most popular works and with good reason— This concert is available as part of a Classic Series or Create Your Own Subscription. Linda Ronstadt Music Hall has a clear bag policy. Read more about this venue Friday’s concert is expected to last approximately 2 hours, including intermission. The Friday concert only will be presented in the Classics With a Twist format: there will be on-stage introductions to the music and your chance to ask questions of the artists in a post-concert Q&A. Friday parking and travel: a professional bull riding event at Tucson Arena begins at 6:45. Consider arriving early since parking may become congested. Sunday’s concert is expected to last approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes, including intermission. The Sunday concert only will be preceded by Concert Comments, a pre-concert talk, beginning at 1:00 p.m. Beethoven’s Fifth has been adapted multiple times in popular culture, from Chuck Berry’s “Roll Over Beethoven” and a disco version in the movie Saturday Night Fever to the theme music for TV show Judge Judy. Written in the U.S. as a commission for the Boston Symphony, Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra incorporates eastern European folk music from his native Hungary.Plan Your Visit
