New Jersey Symphony Orchestra | New Quiz | “Name that Tune” – Famous 5th Symphonies Trivia

by Michael Rosin

The New Jersey Symphony Orchestra has some 5th symphonies coming up (the boys on the top row-Mendelssohn & Sibelius) so I decided to do “Name that Tune” trivia quiz of 5th Symphonies (with the Almighty symphonist, Beethoven, at the center of the picture, of course) for our next quiz. What is it about 5th Symphonies that summoned a new level from a composer? Challenged their voice? Called upon them to take a new path? So many composers have a famous 5th symphony; they are so powerful that some must be heard to be believed. Be sure to get to the last question, and you’ll hear why. It has been a favorite of mine since my high school days, and I promise, it will be one of the most beautiful things you’ll ever hear in your life…it comes from deep, deep within the human spirit.
