Experience the euphoric "Beethoven 9" with Maestro Ponti and your PSO. Easily one of the most powerful and influential pieces of classical music, the Ninth Symphony was composed by a completely deaf, frustrated, and depressed Beethoven. Despite this, the famous Ode to Joy, in his final symphony, is understood as a call for hope, peace, and goodwill across cultures everywhere.

Features the PSO Chorus, Paducah Singers, and guest choirs.

Maribeth Crawford, soprano
Kate Tombaugh, mezzo-soprano
Gregory Turay, tenor
David Dillard, baritone
Raffaele Ponti, conductor
