DESCRIPTION:
Another CoolCleveland.com video exclusive.

First, pianist Mitsuko Uchida, in a flourescent green see-thru jacket, beat the hell out of the Steinway on Beethoven's Piano Concerto #4, then it was The Cleveland Orchestra's turn with his Symphony No.5, a blistering triumph served up by music director Franz Welser Moest at a breathtaking tempo.

But if #5 was knocking on fate's door, the Fridays@7 after-concert with Beat The Donkey in the lobby of Severance Hall was the apocalypse rattling the rafters. Watch this video and see if it doesn't make you want to Beat The Donkey, or at least pee your pants. http://www.ClevelandOrchestra.com
