Why Beethoven?
The opening four-note motif of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony is one of the most recognizable and iconic sequences in classical music. Beethoven's influence is immeasurable, and he left an enduring legacy that continues to inspire musicians and audiences. It is also known that Beethoven found inspiration in nature and often composed while walking in the countryside. He believed that spending time outdoors helped stimulate his creativity. We invite you to celebrate Beethoven, classical music, and FSO with us this June for the Beethoven 5K.

Run for the Arts—How YOU Make a Difference: The Beethoven 5K supports Flagstaff Symphony Orchestra’s mission to bring powerful, transformative music to our community.
