The symphony of symphonies. It is the most important score for
symphony and chorus in the history of music, an expression of an
ideal for human progress. Beethoven ended his symphonic career with
his most majestic score of all, in a renewed style and the
incorporation of human voices into the orchestral fabric to
celebrate the human fraternity expressed by Schiller's poem, sung
here by the Cor de la Generalitat Valenciana.
