Exhilarating Beethoven by López Bellido, Beethoven, Sib 18 Jan 2025, Minn (2025/2025), Surmast Direttur David Danzmayr, Smith Auditorium (Williamette University), Salem, United States

A showstopping ode to the power of dance, Beethoven's Seventh Symphony brims with an unbridled energy certain to make your heart race. The composer's Violin Concerto — which ends with its own rollicking tune — trades in technical fireworks for transcendent lyricism, while Jimmy López Bellido's Fiesta! shakes up Baroque dance forms with elements of pop, techno, and Latin music.
