Music has a pulse, a heartbeat that connects us all. Sibelius’ Valse Triste begins in a hush, a waltz that feels like a dream just out of reach. Then, LSO’s own Matthew Beck steps forward for Puts’ Marimba Concerto, a piece that plays with rhythm, texture, and the sheer joy of sound. We close with Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, a piece that never stands still—its rhythms drive forward, lifting us higher with every note. This is music that asks us to move, to feel, to be present in the moment.
