Barenboim Conducts Beethoven Symphonies 5 and 6
Daniel Barenboim conducts the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra in a programme that includes both Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony and the Fifth, plus two short works by Pierre Boulez.
Daniel Barenboim's complete cycle of Beethoven symphonies reaches its mid-point, as he conducts his ensemble of young Arab and Israeli musicians, the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, in a programme that includes both the Pastoral Symphony and that most iconic of all orchestral masterpieces, Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. Alongside, Barenboim programmes two short works by Pierre Boulez - Memoriale for flute and ensemble, and Messagesquisse, which showcases the virtuosity of the orchestra's cello section.
