Post Subject: My first time hearing BeethovenPosted by clarkjohnsen on: 10/17/2007
I'll never forget... although it wasn't that long ago...

Twenty years, maybe.

Symphony Hall, the Leipzigers under Masur.

And only an encore: The Egmont Overture.

After it was over I turned to my buddy and said, "I think I've just heard Beethoven for the first time!"

He agreed.

Which is to say, I'm with Romy here.
