From the Baton of Krzysztof Urbański
an Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra production
The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra welcomes Music Director Krzysztof Urbański back to the podium for a spectacular performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. The ISO— along with the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir and vocal soloists—will perform what is arguably Beethoven’s greatest masterpiece—as we thank Maestro Urbański for his years of leadership and service with the ISO. As part of the Beethoven 2020 celebration, the ISO commissioned French composer Guillaume Connesson to write a piece to be paired with this symphony, which he dedicated to Maestro Urbański.
