You don’t have to know Beethoven to recognize the opening to his 5th Symphony. It’s an ingenious hook: short, memorable, insistent. And Beethoven spins that famous hook into a high-speed thrill ride. Hear the piece along with music by two Atlanta composers: James Oliverio’s Dynasty, a quirky crowd-pleaser written for two exceptionally talented brothers, and Emory University Professor Richard Prior’s symphonic poem …of shadow and light… Hear the Prior and Oliverio before their upcoming ASO CD release.
