I only came for the Freude schöner Götterfunken Choir but stayed for the whole thing, because it just took my breath away. Imagining that Beethoven composed this masterpiece deaf is just another level. He was a genius and I‘m in awe of these harmonies and arrangements.
George Szell conducting the Cleveland Orchestra on CBS Masterworks. It was sitting on the kitchen counter, unopened in the late 70's. I was in 6th grade and thought it was a box of Andes mint chocolates...I was wrong....it was God damn tapes. I thought, "well, I'm going to get in trouble so I might as well listen to it." I had no idea who Beethoven was. I was a latchkey child and have an odd form of synesthesia - I hear motion and unbeknownst to my mother, had been playing what I heard on her piano for two or three years. I had bought my first three tapes about a month earlier: YES: Tormoto, Led Zeppelin II and Queen: News of the World and though I liked them, they bored me after the first week, or so. So, I started listening to this "Beethoven" jerk. I was too young to understand all the emotion in his work but was fascinated with his counterpoint. When I heard the first movement of the 5th I realized this was the original because compared to what I was hearing, the Disco version that was all over the radio at the time sucked eggs. When I got to the 3rd movement of the 9th, I was surprised: it was horrible....that was the only time I listened to the whole movement. I still hate it. Before anyone busts my chops about that remember, Verdi thought the fourth movement was incompetent. And I quickly lost interest in the 4th movement - I didn't understand that the performers weren't yelling. I was sitting at my desk doing I don't know what....I'm certain it wasn't homework, though...and something in the back of my mind said "what is this? Oh... it's over...rewind that part and listen to it." It was the tenor - Richard Lewis - I had no idea what the hell he was singing but it was obvious Beethoven thought it was important, Lewis believed every stinking word of it and was singing like he just jumped on the back of a grizzly bear and was riding it to Valhalla. I got out the liner notes because I had to know what was so important that Beethoven would frame it the way he did. I found "Froh!"....read the translation of the tenor solo and thought, "Wow...those have to be the the greatest words ever set to music." And they are. If you take all the words ever sung and made them into a mountain, the three words that would be at the the very top would be, "Like A Hero" Ever since that day, I've written nothing but orchestra music. Sorry to be such a bore....hearing this recording again brought back a flood of memories. (My mother never mentioned my taking the tapes. Years later I asked her about it and she said, "what was I going to do....yell at a 12 year old boy for loving Beethoven?")
Just cant get enough of this piece. I'm 30 and I listen to it carefuly since I was 17... Its like watching the same movie over and over again and getting new details each time. Without a shadow of a doubt, the greatest thing a human being ever created.
Yes, I am taking part in a performance on Sunday 9 October in St Cuthbert's Church at the West End of Edinburgh under the direction of Robert Dick, with his Canongait Orchestra. This video is extremely helpful for an alto learning the part! Thank you!
Performed this with Hartford Symphony in college- sang in Opera Chorus. It was finals week. Contralto section was asked to sing tenor because they were weak😂. Rehearsal night bunch of people fell asleep during third movement and FELL OFF THEIR CHAIRS WHEN THE HORNS STARTED THIS MOVEMENT- priceless!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Our group Southern Nevada Musical Arts Society will be performing this great work on June 7, 2024 with the Henderson Symphony Orchestra @ the Lee Family center in Las Vegas @ 7:30 p.m. Thanks for providing this video!
The Springfield Symphony (Ohio) is performing this on May 18, 2019. I just joined the Springfield Symphony Chorale to learn and perform this piece. I agree with Jacob Moreno that this is a very difficult work. I will be practicing hard for the next several weeks!
I’ve been fortunate to have experienced this through 3 avenues. 1st time was in undergrad back in 2006 at music school and the local chorus was looking to increase its numbers. So I sang baritone/tenor. Mind you, I’m a viola player. 2nd time was 2015 with a local orchestra, and I played the bass part. My hands wanted to fall off after the 3rd movement. Now 2024, I finally get to play it on viola 2 days from now as I type this. The 9th is the greatest work I’ve played. Though the hardest work I’ve played, looking at you Richard Strauss Alpine, and but definitely is a test of endurance and chops.
I sang this almost a year ago, and haven't looked at it since, and was still able to sing along! Beethoven wanted to challenge both musicians and singers and does so, so very beautifully. One of my favorite choir pieces to listen to and sing.
Performing this on Sunday June 18th in Symphony Hall Birmingham! Great resource for learning the pronunciation and how the chorus part fits in with everything else
It was so so great seeing the German choir notes with the music and the translation for this magnificent masterpiece. I will be seeing this again to learn the Baritone part and be able to sing with it when I listen to it in the not too distant future! Thank you so much. God bless you!
I'm performing this piece at the Kimmel Center in Philly and I am so excited. I've never studied the translation in depth until now and it's so beautiful and especially still holds up now.
I sang the baritone solo at with the sidney high school choir, and their band/orchestra. I was a senior in school that year, 2 years ago lol. Aged only 17
27 July 2019, 7:30pm, for the Mendocino Music Festival. We last performed this in 2008; it was one of the most thrilling experiences of my life. Standing on a stage, surrounded by exquisitely glorious music -- the very best! I can hardly wait for this summer's performance. And yes, just exercising my soprano voice (more used to singing jazz & folk) back up to strength for those high A's requires dedication. Love it!
I have just discovered your channel, and I must say that your quality is superior to other sheet music channels! Keep up the good work mate, get back to making videos!
Thank you so much for this! Members of the Mendelssohn Chorale in Rockford, Il will be performing this in May with the Kishwaukee Symphony Orchestra at NIU. This will be my 3rd time singing it but it's been a few years & I need all the practice I can get!!
Thank you, JamesSMV. Except for about 2 years of piano lessons and watching Leonard Bernstein's Young People's Concerts way back when, I've had no formal music training. Strictly self-taught, but I've directed several choruses over the last 25+ years. Nothing like this, of course, but I find following score helped me understand what's going on. Your care in editing so it fits the screen AND includes the score reduction is greatly appreciated. Congratulations...and many, many thanks.

here in Espírito Santo, a state of Brazil, The choir of the Universidade do Espírito Santo will present it on March, 21th. I'm so proud of singing it again! It is so amazing!!!
This was composed in 1824,it was an priemeire in Vienna,more than 20,000 people attended his symphony no.9 4th movement,when it’s done,the Composer that composed for him touched his shoulder and the people show joy to Beethoven so he can understand they all liked the performance,during his death,20,000+ people attanded before he already died 3 years later in 1827
We will perform this Symphony on a couple weeks. Alongside, we'll be sharing seats with the Choir and the Orchestra from Maracay. Just here to check out Baritone's notes. Still having difficulties on these ones, though :P
I was in awe of Beethoven before seeing the sheet music for the recitative and fugue. Now I'm just speechless. (edit) performing with the University of Chicago
As someone who knows nothing about music, what exactly is a fugue and when does it come on in this piece? Is it the part when the entire chorus bursts out singing ‘freude schöner gotterfunken.....’ ?
according to google a fugue is "a contrapuntal composition in which a short melody or phrase (the subject) is introduced by one part and successively taken up by others and developed by interweaving the parts." The actual fugue in this piece starts at 17:20
This is closing the Three Choirs Festival this year!! I'll be in the cheap seats singing soprano in the Festival Chorus! If we've Brexited by then I'll be in tears!!!
Hey. Thank you for all your videos. They have been a huge help. University Choir of Costa Rica along with UCR chorale (+200 performers) and University of Costa Rica Orchestra will be performing 9th Symphony at the National Theater on October 20th 2017! Wish us luck!

Tomorrow, October 11th, I will perform this symphonie at the Auditorio Nacional de Música de Madrid, it's extremely praising, an energetic experience!!!
Thank you for this wonderful resource! Especially helpful for that devilish prestissimo at the conclusion. You have helped our community chorus prepare for an early May 2017 performance in Southern Vermont. The links to specific passages are especially useful. BTW readers might want to find a more literal translation of the lyrics which are somewhat earthier, including the lustiness of worms for example. "Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben,..." Gets at the ecstatic passion of the Schiller.
I always wonder if you can translate some phrases even into English in their truthful form. It really is metaphoric, picturesque way of writing poetic lyrics that give room to interpretation. You probably have to make an interpretation and then translate it with that in mind. Is there a word like "Wollust" in English by the way? xD
I recall the time our school played this for marching band field show and concert season. I was second tenor for concert season. I was also second tenor for marching band.
Thanks for the upload. It's now much easier and one does not get confused after long pauses. Good job with bookmarks. Still, overlapping of solo and choir parts makes it harder to practice. One needs a separate set of score anyway :(. Damn, this opus is so demanding. Regards.
Not being a musician it actually helps to see choir and solo together and you simply can follow what they sing including the notes written. Obviously a way late comment but just something I noticed while listening to it. Doesn't matter what position someone might sing you need to know where you are in the whole piece or it falls apart. Probably helps that I actually understand what they sing. xD
I thought this Beethoven's last symphony was numbered 9 because its sempre ending (23:30) is repeated 9 times, and it is closed with 1-2-3 ("e-n-d" or "fi-ni-te")
Wonderful to listen with the piano score. As a suggestion, may I say that the page disappears too soon - in the fast tempo more than a measure too early. I am not sure I need a black white spot between every page change, I would prefer to watch the page till the very end and a sudden change or if it is too abrupt visually, to make the transition (fade off) much quicker.
Hopefully I will sing this with the Bournemouth Symphony in 3 weeks' time. Goodness I have a lot to learn. I thought the Monteverdi Vespers was tricky.

6:23 Best part
I thought this Beethoven's last symphony was numbered 9 because its sempre ending (23:30) is repeated 9 times, and it is closed with 1-2-3 ("e-n-d" or "fi-ni-te")
Wonderful to listen with the piano score. As a suggestion, may I say that the page disappears too soon - in the fast tempo more than a measure too early. I am not sure I need a black white spot between every page change, I would prefer to watch the page till the very end and a sudden change or if it is too abrupt visually, to make the transition (fade off) much quicker.
Hopefully I will sing this with the Bournemouth Symphony in 3 weeks' time. Goodness I have a lot to learn. I thought the Monteverdi Vespers was tricky.
excellent learning aid! Performing in sopranos July 1 2024.
This piano arrangement is excellent and, needless to say, much easier than the Liszt transcription haha. Beginning to learn it now.
Gonna take part in a performance this year in Ubeda (Spain) Wish me luck, im already dying inside xD
