This special performance at the Arvada Center Outdoor Amphitheatre on August 2 showcases your Colorado Symphony performing the composers iconic First Symphony.

This yearlong event will celebrate Beethoven’s unmatched brilliance with over two dozen performances in Boettcher Concert Hall and across Colorado, bringing the full orchestra and chamber ensembles to underserved communities in the state where access to live symphonic music is often difficult or impossible to realize.
