Beethoven: Symphony No 9 in D minor
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
This is my favorite classical music composition ever. This performance is delivered with precision and passion by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra:
Symphony No 9 in D minor, Op 125 “Choral”
Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven
(1770, Bonn, Germany — 1827, Vienna, Austria)
Beethoven is widely regarded as the greatest composer who ever lived. His 9th Symphony combines the worlds of vocal and instrumental music in a manner never before attempted. His personal life was marked by a heroic struggle against encroaching deafness, and some of his most important works were composed during the last 10 years of his life when he was quite unable to hear.
