Sibelius Symphonies 1 and 2

The music of Sibelius defies simple generalizations. It is music of broad, sonorous Romantic gestures, but often is concentrated and taut. Compare these two symphonies of the composer who became a Finnish national hero.



Exploring Beethoven

Beethoven stands as the most revolutionary composer in music. Trace the development of his musical style, from its roots in the Viennese Classical tradition through the monumental late works. Explore symphonies, sonatas and other compositions.



Mozart Symphonies

Mozart may have been the greatest musical genius of all time. Study his symphonies in their musical and cultural context, the role of the symphony in his creative life, and his contribution to the genre as it evolved during his lifetime.



Performances each evening by Peabody artists and exceptional students. Free access to world-class Walters Art Museum across the street.



Program in association with Peabody Institute of The Johns Hopkins University, providing musical training since 1857.



Baltimore

Once a center of shipbuilding on the Eastern seaboard, Baltimore remains an active port dedicated to preserving its maritime heritage. From historic neighborhoods to famed cultural and educational facilities, Baltimore is a world-class city.
