Overview
The 9th Symphony of Ludwig van Beethoven is one of the most popular pieces of classical music in the world.

But Beethoven’s Ninth is also met with enthusiasm far beyond the borders of Europe. What’s the explanation for its never ending success? What is it about this work of art that fascinates people all over the world?
