BEETHOVEN, Ludwig van

Symphony no. 9 in D minor op. 125

III. Adagio molto e cantabile

Jesús López Cobos, guest conductor

Orquesta Sinfónica Freixenet de la Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía

In this rehearsal, Maestro López Cobos works on aspects such as dynamics and phrasing. There should be a lot of precision in the rapport between strings and winds when articulating phrase endings. Rhythmical accuracy is also very important to reach the filling between instruments, so it is important not to rush. When we breathe, a color change is possible if it is required by phrasing. They correct tuning issues, especially in winds. After the pizzicato, the violins must quickly prepare to play with the bow. It is necessary to find the balance between the voices and the melodic phrases.
