Notes

This concert featured Beethoven's Fifth Symphony but presented in a very unusual order by today's standards. In between the first and second movements, the audience heard the ballads "Love's Young Dream" and "The Gipsy Girl's Dream" (by request, according to the program), followed by a dramatic scene from Auber's Fra Diavolo and a piano concerto by J.N. Hummel. The second movement of Beethoven's Fifth concluded the first half of the program, and only after intermission did the orchestra perform the rest of the symphony.
