Beethoven - Symphony No. 6 'Pastorale', Op. 68
Beethoven composed his Symphony No. 6 between 1802 and 1808. Nicknamed Pastorale, this piece is one of the few examples of program music in the work of the German composer. Unlike other Beethoven symphonies, this work has five rather than four movements, each with a programmatic title. This performance of Symphony No. 6 was performed in 2017 by the Sinfonia Rotterdam Orchestra, under the direction of Conrad van Alphen, at St. Willibrord Basilica in Hulst, The Netherlands.
