Beethoven

Tonight we went to the final performance of the Western Australian Symphony Orchestra (WASO) playing Beethoven's Symphony number 8 and 9.

Nine was brilliant! I could easily have been in Vienna.

What is incredible is that Beethoven was completely deaf when he wrote his last symphony number 9.

Took a night shot of the Concert Hall before we went in. Looks pretty devoid of people but the Beethoven Festival had been on for ten days and was booked out every night.

Lots of versions of 9 - here is a short but fun street version Symphony 9

Enjoy!
