I'll watch this as a form of celebration.

"It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now to give it the perfect ending was a bit of the old Ludwig van."

Occasionally I'll put on the headphones turn out all the lights lay flat on my back and crank Beethoven's 5th. It's mind blowing.

I’m a bigger fan of the 3rd and 7th, but yes, the 5th is brilliant.

How was the show? Did you have a good time?

I will be celebrating a bit late by having my 5th graders play the little snippet that is in their methods book tomorrow

It went well. That last movement is always a bit stressful, but there were no real hangups.

Can't play that, so I was only watching and listening to the anniversary concert that was broadcasted in TV.

Hope this is visible in every country. It took place in 4 different cities across Europe (Leipzig, Paris, Milano, Vienna). What a celebration.
