Ludwig van Beethoven – Sinfonia n. 9 in Re minore op. 125

Director: Zubin Mehta

Sopran: Julianna Di Giacomo
Mezzo-Soprano: Lilly Jørstad
Tenor: Michael Schade
Bass: Wilhelm Schwinghammer
Orchestra and Chorus of the Teatro Massimo
Maestro of the Chorus: Piero Monti

The Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125 (also known as “the Choral”), is Ludwig van Beethoven’s final complete symphony. Completed in 1824, the symphony is one of the best-known works in classical music. It is almost universally considered by critics to be one of Beethoven’s greatest works, and many consider it one of the greatest compositions in the western musical canon. The symphony was the first example of a major composer using voices in a symphony (thus making it a choral symphony). The words are sung during the final movement by four vocal soloists and a chorus. They were taken from the “Ode to Joy”, a poem written by Friedrich Schiller in 1785 and revised in 1803, with text additions made by the composer. In the 2010s, it stands as one of the most performed symphonies in the world.

In 2001, Beethoven’s original, hand-written manuscript of the score, held by the Berlin State Library, was added to the United Nations Memory of the World Programme Heritage list, becoming the first musical score so honored.
