Beethoven Symphony No 9 - 4th Movement - (2 of 3)

[Afroman152071]

Is this the London Symphony performing?

[0sebastiank0]

I'm writing about the germanic people in the medieval age for school history, and the part @ 6:20 really does the trick

[kknighteypics]

There's no day I don't listen to this masterpiece <3

[Guille2Guille]

Justin Bieber has 10 times more visits on his/her videos...

Beethoven made music 10 times better than Justin Bieber

¿What the hell are you doing YOUNG audience?

[originstrike]

I used to think nobody can beat Mozart but then i was wrong. Beethoven made the best pieces of art that i have ever heard.

[generosos87]

Who else has goosebumps the size of anthills all over their body?

[texkwato1]

If you glance at the related videos to the right your first though will be "doggy style" but don't click it

[IamOBMF]

@texkwato1 But I really want to click it. What is it?

[ghettoblaster36]

Dubstep is better

[Berthagertrude]

@ghettoblaster36

Enjoy being a moron?

[ghettoblaster36]

@Berthagertrude do u?

[burningsponge]

@ghettoblaster36 die alone and cold in a pit you inebriated cretin.

[ghettoblaster36]

@burningsponge you first. :D

as i said, dubstep is way better than this B***sh*t

[Berthagertrude]

@ghettoblaster36

What a cunt.

[ghettoblaster36]

@Berthagertrude dont be so hard on urself

[burningsponge]

@ghettoblaster36 dubstep is shit, all the "musicians" do is go on stage and play their recorded tracks off their mom bought macbooks whereas composers can bring hundreds of people together in beautiful harmony to play an hour long MASTERPIECE.

[Nowhereman90]

I came here for Ludwig van Beethoven

[masterofpiano1]

6:21 let your soul be free

[EloTheMan1]

Clockwork Orange brought me here, and I pretty much stayed for the same reason I came with.

[hotathlete2]

Nobody up to now has matched the genius of ludwig van. This man was remarkable, truly a gift from God.

[UncannyRicardo]

You they might as well rename the fourth movement as "Clockwork Orange" or just simply "orange". Since basically a good number of people now days always relate this movement to the movie.

[kubrox91]

It was the next day, brothers, and I had truly done my best, morning and afternoon, to play it their way and sit, like a horrorshow co-operative malchick, in the chair of torture, while they flashed nasty bits of ultra-violence on the screen. Though not on the soundtrack, my brothers. The only sound being music. Then I noticed in all my pain and sickness what music it was that like cracked and boomed - it was Ludwig van - Ninth Symphony, fourth movement.

[generosos87]

@kubrox91 JESUS! Every time I go to a video playing the 9th, there is always, ALWAYS references to clockwork orange. It was a great film people, but its getting incredibly stupid to keep quoting on every ode to joy vid. How about this, enjoy the music for its beauty, not what movie you saw it in

[kubrox91]

@generosos87 bro, this is just part of pop culture. it's going to happen. but at least we're not bringing twilight...

[generosos87]

@kubrox91 .........

point taken sir haha

[MsPandaRosa]

@generosos87

Never saw Clockwork Orange, and now don't ever plan to.

It's just so said that CO may be the only exposure most people will ever have to the nearly most Devine fire (of course Mozart is first).

[bibby5000]

@kubrox91 STOP IT STOP IT PLEASE I BEG YOU!!!! IT'S A SIN........ IT'S A SIIIIINNNNNN!!!!!!!

[kildare97]

@bibby5000 Sin?Whats all this about sin?

[malows1234]

@kubrox91 do you think kubrick is a greater genius or beethoven? because i never really like beethoven till i saw kubrick use it. its like kubrick changes the way you look at music that you heard a 10000 times. like i can never think of beethoven with the naked jesus statues or the ending of clockwork orange. do you agree that kubrick to a visual style as beethoven is to music?

[kubrox91]

@malows1234 i do agree. very much indeed.

[malows1234]

@kubrox91 OH MAN YOUR a kubrick fan too. i love kubrick fans. don't you wish he made napoleon film? he is already considered the greatest of all time. imagine if he had made his napoleon film. he might have been like...... fuck awesome.

[kubrox91]

@malows1234 He's good. Love A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, and Dr. Strangelove... I would have been curious to see how Napoleon would have been, but It just reminds me of Barry Lyndon, era-wise, which I considered to be a weak one for Stan. He's up there for me, with Scorsese and Hitchcock, and maybe George Lucas (yes, I am a HUGE fan of Lucasfilm, but disappointed in new indiana jones and first two installments of prequel trilogy, but he's a fantastic writer). God gave us quite agift in Stan.

[malows1234]

@kubrox91 your not allowed to say barry lyndon was weak. its considered a masterpiece by most people. perhaps stanley's finest film in terms of perfection and camera movement. and the visual treat. i mean no film in HISTORY looks better than barry lyndon, that film is like masterful symphony for the eyes. wouldn't you agree.

[bluecollarcanuck]

@kubrox91 And thus, oh brother, did this humble narrator joyously viddy such references.

[douglasmatley]

Would of rather watch the orchestra than what is being shown. D. Alexandr D'Maddalena

[Sirbrute]

Beethoven recieved his musical abilities from god. In return god took Beethovens ability to hear.

[Seanze329]

@Sirbrute Nope.

[hotathlete2]

@Sirbrute God taking his hearing didn't stop him for God gifted him with even greater abilities to compose.

[MrSymphony9]

You friggin ended the 4th movement prematurely. Torture man. Now I'm getting my dependable CD out. YOU DON'T TRUNCATE BEETHOVEN!!!

[Elminster12o]

It brings me great peace to know, that despite the great challenges and failings in his life, Beethoven's final symphony is just plain joyous.

[octopuscollective]

my math homework just finished itself at 6:19

[Dreadnoughtification]

I really feel like saying how daring he was in writing such a symphony, and that the large bump in the statue at 7:00 isn't his knee.

[fgray78]

One of the most astounding products of the human mind, every aspect of this piece is the epitome of beauty and genius

[qfbass]

that chord at 2:47 is amazing in context

[kld0093]

How can i get the lyrics ?

[lordguill]

@kld0093 Google

[TheMurillo666]

When I was younger, I underestimated Beethoven's work. I thought he got attention for nothing. Well, let's just say I almost made myself meet him up there

[DavePerry2012]

7:14 to 8:05

Heaven opens, and the Truth is revealed. Glorious.

[ArcaneAzmadi]

Oh man, listening to the end of this excerpt around about the 9:30 mark I can still hear the crunch of Kaworu's body being crushed, followed by the splash of his severed head falling into the LCL, inside my head...

[mortuusdiligo]

I can never find the full fourth movement... Only in small bits like this

It's strange that a film got me into this particular movement but I'm great full just to listen to something so amazing

[stalingaleon]

this is f.. awesome ¡¡¡ if there is a god im sure beethoven is with him

[terracottaheavens]

I want to see Beethoven direct this so bad...

[mortuusdiligo]

@terracottaheavens maybe one day there'll be an app for that the way technology is growing

[ScooterandSparky]

*goosebumps* Every.... single... time

[TheNexus18]

Thank Evangelion for bringing me here...it gave me a love for classical, especially this piece, I've been looking for it, thanks!

[c0mf0rta61ynum6]

Why are people talking about that piece of trash? Is this a Justin Bieber related video? NO! As much I don't like his music either, I don't go around trashing anybody who doesn't like the same stuff I do. Now, can we please shut up about Bieber and just enjoy the masterpiece known as the 9th by Ludwig van.

[curtithird]

i would've liked to see just how much patience one would have to write all of this music on paper and copy it for multiple instruments' parts. I can't even do it smoothly on a computer...

[davlor86]

Beethoven's 9th Symphony = Greatest musical composition ever written, period.

[davlor86]

@kurtvonschleicher exacly, the greatest classical composers were germans or from the germanic race actually (Beethvoen, Mozart, Bach)

[thiagotecnico]

2:57 clockwork orange nazi part

[RaulSoaresG1452]

@thiagotecnico THE BEST!!!

[y2jeff2]

@thiagotecnico

you are a bouse.

[XaTF]

@thiagotecnico And music store part too :)

[c0mf0rta61ynum6]

@thiagotecnico Great, now I'm thirsty. Please excuse me while I get some drugged milk.

[jasonbloss]

always think of eva unit 1 holding kaworu when i listen to this..

[TheNexus18]

@jasonbloss IKR!!!!

[Joaquin602001]

It could just be coincidence, but the lamp next to me started flickering at 6:19...

[dedissimo]

Pronunciation is not that good... :(

[ZaroRequiem]

i think this is the best choral i ever hear in all my life :3

[shutout951]

great video, not enough complete symphonies on youtube. I'm pretty sure noone should need this in english to know what it is

[shutout951]

great video, not enough complete symphonies on youtube

[TheMusicmanMB]

@kurtvonschleicher This was Post-Napoleon...and pre-nationalism....so....what the hell are you talking about? >_>

[kurtvonschleicher]

@TheMusicmanMB

the concept of Pan-Germanism began in the early 19 th century, before and following the napoleonic wars, developed by herder, fichte and hegel.  the idea of nationalism itself generated during the french revolution . read "Reden an die deutsche Nation" (speech to the german nation) by johann gottlieb fichte. i hope my explanation was helpful.

[ricvonzipper]

I truly believe Beethoven was one of, or THE greatest human being ever to have lived. However, I have never fully enjoyed, appreciated, or understood his 3rd period. I'm a 2nd period fanatic, no doubt. I am convinced he was a vehicle through whom God spoke in order for us to face our suffering and recognize that it exists for a reason. At the same time, I believe Beethoven's music was intended to ease our suffering. I will forever be grateful he had the fortitude not to kill himself.

[Bassguy0103]

Sometimes, I love human beings.

[Deathawaitsnoone]

If I could play this at the volume I wanted there would be no walls left standing within 2 miles.

[KriegBoy]

So many chills running through my body...

[borngentlemansam]

ha ha !!! imagine the frustration if the video blocked at 6:19, Ultra violence to anybody around.

[scagish]

2 Justin Bieber fans disliked this video.

[RobloxGuyMan]

@scagish No, Justin Bieber created 2 accounts just so that he could dislike this video...

[scagish]

@RobloxGuyMan :)

[kuroroakabane]

hay cosas que uno nunca debe olvidar... como esta hermosa canción <3

[Tails]

What language are they singing in--German? I wish I knew what they were saying, it sounds so pretty!!!!

[1985eleniathens]

@Tails They're singing in German.A translation of the lyrics is: Joy, beautiful spark of divinity* Daughter of Elysium, We enter, drunk with fire, Into your sanctuary, heavenly (daughter)! Your magic reunites What custom strictly divided. All men become brothers, Where your gentle wing rests Be embraced, you millions! This kiss for the whole world! Brothers, beyond the star-canopy Must a loving Father dwell. Be embraced, This kiss for the whole world!

[Bassai]

I love 2:55. Incredible how Beethoven reinvents the main theme.

[iwavns]

The reason I dislike this is because of 9:43 all I can comment is OMG!

[generosos87]

If there is a God, and Beethoven is in Heaven, truly god has a front row seat to this masterpiece and applauds with tears every time he hears it!

[kylezo]

the contrabassoon at 2:55...it sounds like a dying duck. without the contrabassoon, you only hear the pretty. but with the ugliness of that angry duck, you transcend pretty, into beauty, into art, into truth. that's what the bassoon is, a translator for the hidden truth.

[joaopmpgnr]

A huge need of some of the old good ultraviolence brought me here.

[jalcorn94]

THUMBS UP IF INGRAM SENT YOU HERE

[generosos87]

@jalcorn94 whos ingram? beethoven brought me here dude

[Marco3000polo]

4:33 - 6:01 !!!!

[asianpianodude]

Lol, epic part at 6:20!

[WerdnaCourt]

Beethoven was a genius, a master of his art. Born this day in 1770. Great recording.

[fishman017]

2:55 begins my favorite piece of music ever.

[xtrmsprts]

never appreciated this one until clockwork. won't lie

[HermiOdleProduction5]

1 DISLIKE? MUST BE A DUMB ASS GUCCI MANE FAN FROM THE SOUTH!!!!

[CubanBassPlayer1]

@HermiOdleProduction5 sure is a dumb ass but region does not matter,im cuban n i love this masterpeice,so lets respect each other's place of origin,n remember,there r dumb asses all over the world including north,just like the asshole that dislikes this music

[ClearwaterMK2]

@HermiOdleProduction5 1 Justin bieber fan was here.

[MamaLuigisOVER9000]

this is one of the only ways the german language can sound beautiful

[xtruder02]

epic genius

[HolyRoller478]

Do you have the version that Michael Kamen conducted for the Die Hard soundtrack?

[ribbitgrl]

While in college at a performing arts school, I was privileged enough to be part of a performance of this. It is, without question, the most rewarding musical experience of my life.

[McTomson]

and he's never heared it...

[MariusChamberlin]

@kurtvonschleicher Are you German? If so, I truly envy you. Yes, there are American classical music masters, but none like Beethoven. I honestly think that he's a greater composer than Mozart. Yes, Mozart may have written a lot, and may have done it at a startling young age, but he was predictable, contributing very little of his own thought. Beethoven poured his soul into his music, whether the people of his day liked it or not be damned. He wrote with passion...con brio.

[MariusChamberlin]

One thing that always let's me know that something is Beethoven is the pure chaos he is able to bring out when he wants to. Not to say the music is chaotic, but...it's energetic. No composer in his time wanted to write something that might be considered anything but inhumanly happy and pleasant. Beethoven was a realist; he knew that yes music must express the happy, the "joy"-full, and it must also express the dark as well.

[BloggerMusicMan]

I played drums to the part at 2:57 (which was the second half of a piece called "Brandenburg Jubilee", the first half I think being part of Bach's "Bradenburg Concerto") and it was one of the best songs I played in my four years of concert and jazz band at high school. It's actually up on YouTube if you look up "LoyolaBand Brandenburg Jubilee". This version is better though.

The whole symphony is divine.

[voltiolord57123]

good performance though I prefer Karajan's for it's great speed and think the choir is better than this, still love it ^^

Greetings from Argentina

[tombo22888]

6:10 to 7:10 is incredible.  if I sit with my eyes closed I get wave after wave of chills through my body.

[pierobarale]

divino.

[youtalkintome7]

oh yeaaa finally

3:01 mark is when its on like donkey kong!!! (clockwork orange bit used in the march scene)

[pedromerigui]

How can i get the audio from this video? This is the best i´ve heard of the 9th

[amadeus9man]

@pedromerigui Thank you! I always think this recording is underrated. This is Carlo Maria Guilini conducting the London Symphony Orchestra. You can get the recording on EMI along with performances of the 6th and 8th symphonies. Search Beethoven symphony Guilini on Amazon and you should find it at the top.

[8x8MaVerick8x8]

@amadeus9man Carlo Maria Giulini = excellent!

[KeyszerS]

@amadeus9man Purchased :) Thanks for the tip. I went for B0000CE7FH on Amazon - that's got all 3 symphonies.

[b0wl0fmi1k]

@pedromerigui Correction, the 8-bit version in "A Clockwork Orange" is the version of the 9th!

[vikingkidsuknow]

@b0wl0fmi1k agreee

[Lordofdeath127]

@pedromerigui

better then von Karajans? 

[pedromerigui]

@Lordofdeath127 i believe so

[Aspectist]

i like the musical part right bevor this really

[bstonebalboa]

especially 3:37

[g0d0fStuff]

This is mankind's greatest achievement.

[LunaManor]

This is ONE man's achievement.

[ClaudeFrollon]

3:10 +

[bstonebalboa]

@ClaudeFrollon

thats my favourite part of the hole 9th symphony

just amazing

[masterworm1]

I had the privilege to sing the 4th movement to Beethoven's 9th and it was one of the most powerful and moving musical experiences of my life.

[kurtvonschleicher]

my favourite part starts at 3:10

[bakerisme]

Mine too, that's the same part that is used when the Nazi march begins in A Clockwork Orange when adam is watching the viddy's

[1afoohs1]

ALEXander delarge is having his glazzies rotted out by propaganda

[LordRaziel999]

@bakerisme how da f*&k is adam? is Alex not adam

[Hoshy69]

I rofl'd

[bakerisme]

It was written over several years and first performed in 1824.

The music itself wasn't recorded with Beethoven conducting. Symphonies and choirs today still perform this piece all the time. The London and Boston Symphonies do absolutely excellent performances of this piece. This particular audio file was probably recorded less than 20 years ago.

[steogrillhouse]

ahahahahahah

[ADHDfox]

thank you, this video rocks, Its so intresting that the music done hundred years ago is still listend to today.

[amadeus9man]

Thank you for your comment! It was premiered in 1824 after years of work on it, so it is actually almost 200 years old.
