Beethoven's Ode to Joy — The Season Finale!
This program brings together two complementary visions of hope: in Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, the call for universal brotherhood resounds—a true humanist epic where the chorus exalts joy as a shared horizon.
Jimmy López, the OSM’s composer-in-residence, responds to this ideal with a deeply contemporary metaphor: the migration of monarch butterflies, a fragile yet determined journey echoing that of human beings seeking a place to thrive. His Symphony no. 6, given its world premiere by the Orchestra, traces this trajectory at the heart of a nature in motion, vibrant with energy and light. Together, these two works draw the same line: that of a humanity moving forward, dreaming, and united by music beyond all borders.
