Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 (LP)
Wilhelm Furtwängler conducts the Orchester der Bayreuther Festspiele in a performance of Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 ‘Choral’.
Premiered in Vienna in 1824, the Ninth was the work which finally rendered the modern conductor necessary: not so much because of the finale but because of the first movement where, as Sir Donald Tovey puts it, 'the broadest and most spacious processes sit side by side with the tersest and most sharply uttered statements'.
