An all-Beethoven program marked Oktoberfest at the Koger Center for the Arts in Columbia. The South Carolina Philharmonic opens with a dramatic overture and closes with one of the master’s most popular symphonies. In between the orchestra welcomes pianist Hugo Kitano for the third of Beethoven’s five piano concertos. After that there are highlights from another Oktoberfest concert, this time with the Greenville Symphony Orchestra. They perform Baroque music by Gluck and J. S. Bach.
