Symphony No. 9 "Choral"

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & The Philadelphia Orchestra & Riccardo Muti

Symphony No. 9 "Choral" is the ninth symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1824. The work blends classical symphonic form with extended orchestration and a choral finale featuring vocal soloists and mixed choir, employing bold harmonic turns, expansive thematic development and formal experimentation that characterise Beethoven's late period and influenced subsequent symphonic composition in the 19th century.
