Ludwig van Beethoven was born on this day in 1770, and we are celebrating his birth anniversary with ourEvening Masterwork tonight: the Symphony No. 4. Actually, Beethoven’s even-numbered symphonies are often overshadowed by their odd-numbered neighbors. Robert Schumann even referred to Beethoven’s Fourth Symphony as a “slender Greek maiden between two Nordic giants.” The Symphony No. 4 by Beethoven is our Evening Masterwork tonight at 7 on Classical WSMR 89.1 and 103.9.
