Beethoven & Andreas Delfs

A new season for your Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra is upon us, and it begins with Beethoven: The Ruin of Athens Overture, Beethoven's Symphony No. 5, and his Violin Concerto in D with soloist Gil Shaham. RPO Music Director Andreas Delfs sat down to chat with WXXI Classical music director Julia Figueras about their impact despite bad premiers, Beethoven's journey from darkness to light, and what the Amsterdam rhythm is.

A Strong Memorial baby and Greece Arcadia grad, Julia Figueras is the Music Director and mid-day host for WXXI-FM. She is also the producer and host for the award-winning monthly interview/performance show, Backstage Pass.
