Yet another Beethoven Symphony is on the schedule this week at Severance Music Center, as the Cleveland Orchestra offers not only his Symphony No. 6 (“Pastoral”), which is filled with echoes of natural sounds, but also opens the concert with his overture to Egmont, part of his incidental music for Goethe’s 1787 play Egmont.
In between, they’ll perform Joseph Haydn’s Cello Concerto No. 1 from 1765, with Quebec-born French cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras in the solo role. The program is conducted by veteran Belgian conductor Philippe Herreweghe.
