Tuned to the joyful tones of the famous finale of Beethoven's 9th Symphony.
Beethoven's last great work, his "Symphony No. 9 in D minor," premiered in Vienna in 1824. Also known as the Ode to Joy Symphony, it was received with numerous standing ovations, with some members of the audience enthusiastically waving hats and handkerchiefs to show their appreciation for the composer who could no longer hear the applause. The words in the choral finale were taken from a poem by Friedrich Schiller, and the music from this movement has been adopted as the official European Anthem.
