On April 17 at 3 p.m., members of the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra (CSO) played Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony from their homes. Without seeing or hearing one another, each musician played their part, held space for their colleagues, and trusted that the wholeness of the score connected them. The musicians decided to perform this unique performance as a gesture of gratitude for music, one another, the CSO, and their communities.
