BARBER Adagio for Strings
BEETHOVEN Symphony No 5
in C minor, Op 67

Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings is one of the most emotionally charged works of the 20th century. It has been played to honour the passing of the world’s beloved characters, both real and fic onal. While you may recognise it from films such as Platoon or The Elephant Man, this s rring American composi on was also played at the funerals of Albert Einstein and Grace Kelly. Take a deep breath a0er the final note, because Beethoven’s thrilling Fi0h will strike next on this program.
