Symphony No. 9 "Choral" 貝多芬 交響曲 合唱

1824年5月7日，《D小調交響曲》第125號作品在卡恩特納托劇院首演。作曲家因耳聾而無法指揮演出，他只能指示每個樂章的速度，而真正的指揮烏姆勞夫則囑咐歌手和演奏者不要理會貝多芬，因為他根本聽不到演奏過程。這部作品是為一對長笛、雙簧管、單簧管、巴松管、小號和大鼓譜寫的，還有四支法國圓號和常用的弦樂，作曲家在此基礎上增加了三支長號、一支雙巴松管、一支短笛、三角鐵、鐃鈸和低音鼓。該交響曲由倫敦愛樂協會委託創作並支付費用，但貝多芬將其獻給了普魯士國王弗裡德里希-威廉三世"

原文簡介:
The first performance of the Symphony in D minor, Opus 125, took place at the Karntnertor Theatre on 7th May, 1824, after a great deal of wrangling over the whole matter, and was a tremendous success with a public that Beethoven thought he had lost to Rossini. The composer, too deaf to direct the performance, indicated the tempi of each movement, the real conductor, Umlauf, having instructed singers and players to pay no attention to Beethoven, who could hear nothing of the proceedings. The work is scored for pairs of flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoons, trumpets and drums, with four French horns and the usual strings, to which the composer added three trombones, a double bassoon, a piccolo, triangle, cymbals and bass drum. The symphony was commissioned and paid for by the Philharmonic Society of London, but was dedicated by Beethoven to the King of Prussia, Friedrich Wilhelm III.
