Symphony no. 9 in C major, D. 944 "Great"

Album by Franz Schubert & London Classical Players & Sir Roger Norrington

Symphony No. 9 in C major, D.944, known as the 'Great', is a symphony by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, completed in 1825. The expansive four-movement work features long-breathed melodies, broad harmonic progressions and rich orchestral textures, and marks a late-period statement that bridges Classical forms and emerging Romantic orchestral practice.
