Paavo Järvi and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen.

Not only does Beethoven's Sixth Symphony have five movements instead of the usual four. Also unique is the fact that the third, fourth and fifth movements flow seamlessly into one another. The triple-movement episode begins with a "Merry gathering of country folk," with "Allegro" (rapid-action) the specified tempo.

Altogether, the Symphony No. 6 in F Major, opus 68 anticipates what later went by the name of "program music:" music that describes a situation or tells a story. In the "merry gathering" we hear an oom-pah-pah village band that doesn't quite play together but, for that, is all the more boisterous. It's great fun.

Deutsche Welle and Unitel Classica present Estonian conductor Paavo Järvi, conductor of the year 2019, and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, recorded at the Beethovenfest in Bonn.
