Two fundamentally different symphonies: both works explore feelings from anentirely different point of view. The Fourth is about human feelings andmoods: obsession, love (what a melody in the second movement!), happiness,fun, wit, (Beethoven's most humorous finale!). The Sixth is about feelingsthat nature awakens in us: calmness, meditation, thankfulness.It has been an especially creative process to work on these masterpieces. Wediscovered that the Fourth Symphony sounds better with natural horns andtrumpets. In the Pastorale we used a different seating arrangement, with the winds scattered among the strings, so that each soloist was surrounded bymusicians playing the flow of Beethoven's nature music. After the storm, when we hear the first tentative horn call with a bagpipe-like accompaniment, suggesting signals across the mountains, we found it appropriate to answer with a solo violin, which is gradually joined by the whole orchestra. Iván Fischer
