Symphony Rehearsal Ends Season With Beethoven Ninth
At Symphony Hall Mr. Fiedler gave a final season appearance presenting Mozart in D major and Beethoven’s Ninth. Despite rain the hall sold out and many were turned away from cheap balcony seats. The Mozart piece impressed with a virile opening, brilliant instrumentation, and modern harmonies, while Beethoven’s Ninth was rendered with fervor though the finale lacked perfect unity. The critic praised Fiedler’s editing of the Ninth and noted Beethoven’s quest to speak to the world through music, even as the piece sparked debate on absolute music and artistic aspiration.
