Classical Music Playlist, September 28, 2022
Haydn's Symphony #96 got the nickname the "Miracle" symphony when a chandelier fell from the ceiling of the symphony hall during the premiere performance. A chandelier DID apparently fall into the audience seats with no one injured (thus, the "miracle") but not during the Symphony #96. It happened during the premiere in London of Haydn's Symphony #102, and you can hear that actual "miracle" symphony today at 2:00 pm.
