George Szell  (1897-1970) was a Hungarian-born conductor. He is widely considered one of the twentieth century's greatest conductors.  He is remembered today for his long and successful tenure as music director of the Cleveland Orchestra of Cleveland, Ohio, and for the recordings of the standard classical repertoire he made in Cleveland and with other orchestras.
 
Szell came to Cleveland in 1946 to take over a respected if undersized orchestra, which was struggling to recover from the disruptions of World War II.  By the time of his death he was credited, to quote the critic Donal Henahan, with having built it into "what many critics regarded as the world's keenest symphonic instrument."
 
Szell quickly realized that he was never going to make a career out of being a composer or pianist, and that he much preferred the artistic control he could achieve as a conductor.  The Vienna Symphony's conductor had injured his arm, and Szell was asked to substitute. Szell quickly turned to conducting full-time.
 
At the outbreak of war in Europe in 1939, Szell was returning via the U.S. from an Australian tour; he ended up settling with his family in New York City. From 1940 to 1945 he taught composition, orchestration, and music theory at the Mannes College of Music in Manhattan.
 
He died in 1970.

During WWII Winston Churchill used Beethoven's Fifth Symphony as his "victory" music which was played throughout the war as they faced hardship, going into difficult battles against the enemy, encouraging the soldiers and citizens of England and other nations.   (Many will recognize this movement.)
 
The music is strong, joyous, overcoming just as our lives through God should be as we live on this present earth.

Evil spirits often fled when skillful music was played to people in the Bible.  And the people of God praised God by playing all manner of instruments as they rejoiced.
 
2 Samuel 6:5  And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.
 
By music we express great joy and victory and power and praise.
 
And by these scriptures in the Bible we see when David played skillfully upon his harp, evil spirits left king Saul. (I Sam. 16)
 
Just enjoy the magnificent sounds made by very talented individuals.
