The opening concert of our annual Firefly Music Festival celebrates the 200th anniversary of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9. The Missouri Symphony Orchestra will kick off the concert with Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1. After intermission, they will be joined by the Columbia Choral and four of the most exciting young solo voices from across the country to present the 9th Symphony, which was first performed just over 200 years from this date. With its well-known final movement, commonly known as “Ode to Joy,” the audience will leave excited for what is to come the rest of the festival.
