Most likely, if you hear about it at all, you’ll hear about it from traveling tradesmen or merchants. Not many others traveled around very much and even they probably had a reasonably limited circuit.
If you wanted to hear it yourself, you’d probably have to hope that either you’re rich enough to be able to travel to a foreign court yourself (i.e. are a noble yourself) or if it’s something that a bard or wandering minstrel could play then they might come to you. Either way, you’re a little early for a symphony
