Beethoven's ninth symphony
44
Friedrich von Schiller's Ode to Joy in Beethoven's setting for
45
Four soloists, chorus
46
And orchestra has taken on a special meaning as a fanfare for
47
Peace, tolerance and
48
Liberty all over the world.
49
Beethoven's drafts for his opus 125 - the last in the cycle of
50
Symphonies - date back
51
To the year 1815 or 1816. For decades he had been wanting to
52
Set Schiller's hymn to
53
Music, but it was only after the first three movements of the
54
9th Symphony were
55
Almost completed that he decided to compose a choral finale
56
For the last movement
57
Based on parts of the poem.
58
In the conventions of the 1820s it was nothing less than
59
Revolutionary to end a
60
Symphony in this manner - and at just over an hour the work
61
Was also unusually
62
Long. At it's first performance, in Vienna on May 7, 1824, the
63
Audience was typically
64
Enthusiastic, while the critics, as so often before, found the
65
Composer's unique
66
Ideas too novel and daring.
67
Beethoven himself could not hear the clamour and the shouts of
68
'Bravo', as he was
69
Completely deaf by this time.
70
An die freude - ode to joy
71
O Freunde, nicht diese Té°Še!
72
Sondern lasst uns angenehmere anstimmen
73
Und freudenvollere!
74
Freude, sché°Šer Gé°terfunken,
75
Tochter aus Elysium,
76
Wir betreten feuertrunken.
77
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
78
Deine Zauber binden wieder
79
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
80
Alle Menschen werden Br黡er
81
Wo dein sanfter Fl黦el weilt.
82
Wem der grosse Wurf gelungen
83
Eines Freundes Freund zu sein,
84
Wer ein holdes Weib errungen,
85
Mische seinen Jubel ein!
86
Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
87
Sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund!
88
Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle
89
Weinend sich aus diesem Bund.
90
Freude trinken alle Wesen
91
An den Br黶ten der Natur;
92
Alle Guten, alle Bé°en,
93
Folgen ihrer Rosenspur.
94
K黶se gab sie uns und Reben,
95
Einen Freund, gepr黤t I'm Tod;
96
Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben,
97
Und der Cherub steht vor Gott!
98
Froh, wie seine Sonnen fliegen
99
Durch des Himmels pré‹ht'gen Plan,
100
Laufet, Br黡er, eure Bahn,
101
Freudig, wie ein Held zum Siegen.
102
Seid umschlungen, Millionen.
103
Dieser Kuss der ganzen Welt!
104
Br黡er! 躡er'm Sternenzelt
105
Muss ein lieber Vater wohnen.
106
Ihr st黵zt nieder, Millionen?
107
Ahnest du den Sché°Œfer, Welt?
108
Such ihn 黚er'm Sternenzelt!
109
躡er Sternen muss er wohnen.

Solo)
