Beethoven – Symphony No. 9 – en Español

The “Ode to Joy,” sung in Spanish – Sunday, March 14, 2027
2:00 PM
Schiller’s poem imagined a day when all people become brothers. Beethoven set it as the most famous finale in music. Now the New Mexico Symphonic Chorus sings the Ninth in Spanish, carrying that universal message to this community in the world’s second most spoken language. After the acclaim of Mesías and the Brahms Requiem, the Spanish-Masterworks series takes on the summit. A message meant for everyone, sung so everyone hears it.
