Symphony no. 9 in C major 'The Great'

Album by Franz Schubert & Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment & Charles Mackerras

Symphony No. 9 in C major 'The Great' is a symphony by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, composed between 1825 and 1828. The work is characterised by expansive, lyrical melodies, broad orchestral textures and an unusually large scale for Schubert, illustrating a shift from Classical proportions toward the breadth of early Romantic symphonic writing and standing as the culmination of his orchestral output.
