Beetovan's Fifth & Sixth Symphonies

It was just two Saturdays after the attacks on the WTC on 9/11 that my husband and I attended a concert at Carnegie Hall. Claudio Abbato conducted the Berlin Philharmic. Under the circumstances, It was decided that the program was to be changed to Beethovan's 5th & 6th Symphonies. The performance by the Berlin Philharmonic was extremely moving. It felt like the Orchestra was trying to console the audience. It was incredibly moving. There's probably no recording of that particular performance, but maybe the Berlin Philharmonic has recorded those symphanies. Either way, I'd like to hear those pieces on 9/11. Thank you.
