Conga del Fuego Nuevo — This orchestral dance, a conga of fire, has color, character, and flair. Energetic dance rhythms and a fiery percussion section create a dramatic atmosphere for all.

Beethoven considered the Seventh Symphony his "most excellent symphony." The slow movement, perhaps the most enthralling, has had a profound impression on listeners from the beginning — it's simply irresistible!
