NSO: Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony tickets

Bask in the brilliance of Beethoven with the National Symphony Orchestra, under its esteemed music director Gianandrea Noseda, and Wolf Trap Opera artists. This all-Beethoven program opens with the Handel-inspired overture to The Consecration of the House and his rarely performed Elegiac Song before concluding with Beethoven’s Ninth, the symphony by which all others are measured. The cosmic drama of this colossal masterwork—its grand, emotional melodies and the tremendous closing “Ode to Joy”—reminds us why Beethoven’s final symphony resounds as loudly today as it did two centuries ago.
