Simply the best! My favorite is his 3rd movement featuring Itzhak Perlman as the violinist. I am very honored to share the same birthday as Beethoven and whenever it arrives i say a 'Happy Birthday' to him every year! I'm a big believer in astrology and cosmology and feel we share many common characteristics, but i am no music GENIUS :( excellent documentary!
Truly one of the finest pieces of music ever written. It's darkness and sadness is overlain by beauty. Truly my favorite symphony by Beethoven. My favorite recording is one by Walter Weller and the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra because it is slow and you feel the emotion even more.
@maxbaguet124 The one that's played at 1:05? It's actually the 1st movement of Mozart's Sinfonia Concertante for Violin, Viola and Orchestra K.364. The 2nd movement is very melancholic.
Search the 3-part film "bbc.the.genius.of.beethoven" here on Youtube, easily the best filmed biography of Beethoven. You won't regret it.

The ability to travel to the moon insignificant to the brilliance of Beethoven.

It would make my day if i knew the symphony that is played at 1:05, i assume it is 4 or 7 because i dont know these symphonies jet.
maxbaguet124 4 years ago
It's actually Mozart's Concertante in e flat for violin and viola. I don't know why they're playing it in a Beethoven documentary

Thanks, thats a very nice piece of music. Maybe they played it because Mozart is mentioned as Beethoven's idol.

@ProtoCosmos He said in the beginning: "Schubert etc, not to mention his (Beethoven's) own ideal, Mozart, with whom he so much wanted to study."

@LifeJuice90 no you are wrong. Toscanini is the best.

You can listen to every beethoven symphony here on youtube.. just write "Beethoven Symphony" !!
There are some great interpretations by Von Karajan

@matt18matt18 Lier. Karajan is an ass. Comparable to Trevor Pinnock and that other ass Sir Neville Marriner. Toscanini is the best.

@tofuhead don't listen matt18 Toscanini is the best.
