Manfred Honeck leads the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Swedish Radio Choir and the Eric Ericsson Chamber Choir and four soloists in a concert featuring masterpieces in the spirit of freedom and peace. It includes Arnold Schönberg’s ethereal Friede auf Erden and Beethoven’s last symphony, Symphony No. 9, best known for the euphoric choral finale based on the “Ode to Joy” theme.
