Well you've answered the question yourself. Beethoven added vocal chorus for the first time into a symphony. This was an unprecedented and very odd choice at the time. Since then, it has had a moderate effect on future symphonies but nothing too drastic.
Choral symphonies introduce vocal elements and textual narrative, enriching the orchestral experience with human expression and storytelling. This combination allows composers to explore themes of unity, spirituality, and humanity in ways that traditional symphonies may not. The inclusion of choirs and soloists often elevates the emotional impact and can create a more immersive experience for the audience. Overall, choral symphonies blend the power of orchestration with the depth of vocal music, expanding the possibilities of symphonic composition.
Ode to Joy For Elise Third Symphony (Eroica) Pathétique Missa Solemnis Ninth Symphony German classical music composer Ludwig van Beethoven is often considered one of the bridge composers, and the evolution of the classical music period into the romantic era can be seen in his many compositions. Living and working primarily in Vienna, Austria during his life Beethoven is often considered one of the greatest composers in history, producing work even after a devastating hearing loss. His catalogue of musical work has inspired and intimidated composers that came after him. Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany on December 16, 1770, although his birthday is often celebrated on December 17, the day of his baptism. Like many composers before him, his first music teacher was his father, himself a court musician in Bonn, and without success attempted to show him off as a child prodigy, much as Mozart's father had. Beethoven's childhood was difficult, and his father, an abusive alcoholic, beat him often when he did not perform up to his standards. Still, others soon recognized his great musical abilities, and in 1787 while in Vienna he got the opportunity to play for Mozart. He was given a job and music lessons by Christian Gottlob Neefe and sponsorship by the German court to play and study music. His career was halted slightly when he was 17, and his mother died, forcing him to care for two younger brothers. In 1792, Beethoven moved to Vienna, intending to train with Joseph Haydn. Unfortunately, Haydn did not appreciate Beethoven's unconventional music ideas and playing style and stopped lessons. Despite this minor set-back, Beethoven quickly became known in Vienna for being a piano genius as well as a composer, though the composing came much more slowly. In the 1790's, Beethoven decided upon the career of a freelance musician, rejecting the idea of working for a church or a court, and supported himself through public performances, sales of his compositions and grants and stipends from noblemen willing to support his work and talent. Typically Beethoven's musical life is separated into three periods: Early; Middle; and Late. In during his Early period, his compositions and playing style reflected the greats of classical music, including his former teacher Haydn and Mozart, while he simultaneously experimented with new stylistic avenues and finding his own voice. It was during this time that he composed his first and second symphonies, along with the first six string quartets, two piano concertos and twenty piano sonatas, including two of his most famous, "Pathetique" and "Moonlight." Beethoven's Middle period started after he lost his hearing and is recognized as being the period during which his most dramatic and large-scale music works were composed. It was during this time that Beethoven composed many famous works, including symphonies numbers three through eight, the last three piano concertos, the triple concerto and his only violin concerto. He also composed five string quartets, seven more piano sonatas and his only opera, Fidelio. Beethoven's late period started in 1816 and continued until his death. Compositions during this time are typically categorized as being Beethoven's most intellectual, intense and personal works. They also are the most experimental in his library. For example, his Ninth Symphony was the first symphony to add a choral part to the final movement. Beethoven's most well-known works include his Third, Fifth, Sixth and Ninth symphonies, Piano Concerto No. 5, a Violin concerto, the "Pathetique," "Moonlight," and "Appassionata" piano sonatas and the "Fur Elise". "Ode to Joy," the recognizable final choral movement of the Ninth Symphony is the National Anthem of the European Union and was played by Leonard Bernstein during the fall of the Berlin Wall. These events commemorate the universal nature of Beethoven's music works. Because of the breadth of Beethoven's artistic experimentation and his success at creating works that could be understood and enjoyed by the entire world, many have called Beethoven, not only the greatest composer in history, but one of the greatest minds in history. Beethoven's personal life was very difficult, and when he began to lose his hearing at age 28 he thought seriously about suicide. He was not easy to get along with, and often fought with relatives and friends, a trait that potentially was the reason he never married. Because of his freelance lifestyle, he often was in financial distress. Many note the influence of Beethoven's troubled life in his music; his compositions have themes that center around great struggle that is resolved with victory. Perhaps Beethoven's greatest contribution to music was his transformation of the sonata form, although rivaling that was his re-envisioning of the symphony into a freer and more expressive form. Often in poor health, he died on March 26, 1827, legend has it during a wild thunderstorm, angry. His last piece of music was a string quintet in C Major, unfinished.
an F9 chord on the piano is where you have the f major chord (F A C) and just add the 9th to it (which in this case is a G)
Ten chords sound great on the bass:C major chord- 8th fret on the E string and 9th fret on the G string.(add the 9th fret on the D string to make it a Cmaj7 chord) or(add the 8th fret on the D string to make it a C7chord)C minor chord- 8th fret on the E string and 8th fret on the G string.(add the 8th fret on the D string to make it a Cm7chord)Also playing in fifths sound good as well:E5 chord- 7th fret on the A string and 9th fret on the D string.Remember, you can move these chords anywhere on the instrument.The trick to playing chords on the bass is to keep the notes further apart. Lower notes played closer together become muddy sounding.
Tempo, the speed at which a piece of music is played, profoundly influences its emotional character and overall impact. For instance, a fast tempo, like Allegro, can evoke excitement and energy, as heard in Beethoven's "Symphony No. 7," while a slow tempo, such as Adagio, can create a sense of melancholy or introspection, evident in Chopin's Nocturnes. Additionally, tempo changes, or rubato, can add expressiveness, allowing performers to convey nuanced emotions, as seen in many Romantic compositions. Ultimately, tempo serves as a crucial framework that shapes the listener's experience and the piece's interpretative depth.
Choral music. Beethoven was the first one to incorporate voice as one section of the "musical instruments", in the final movement of his Ninth Symphony.
I love it! A question to add to "Where was the Gettysburg address delivered?" "When was the war of 1812?" "Who wrote Beethoven's symphony?" The question answers itself. The last name of the Capulets was, wait for it, Capulet.
I need this information to add to a narration for a choral presentation of the song

This is because sopranos usually have the melody of a piece. Meanwhile, basses and tenors have large ranges to work with and composers use this to add interest to the piece. But my favorite lines are usually the alto because they are the main source of harmony in a choral piece and make the music come alive.
A symphony is a large piece of music written for an orchestra (like the New York Philharmonic or the Boston Symphony Orchestra). They started with Haydn during the Classical period, and are still written today. They consist usually of 3 main movements, or sections each lasting several minutes. (the number does vary depending on composer -- Olivier Messiaen wrote one that is 10 movements long!). See the related link 'Wikipedia - Symphony' below for further information. Symphony is also a greek word which means "agreement" It comes from two words:Syn=Add and phoni=voice thus you have "added voices" equals agreed voices...
ADD is the acronym for the Attention Deficit Disorder institute. This is located in Kalamanzoo, MI. Their address is 3335 South 9th Street. They also have a campus in Livona.
9 symphonies. 32 piano sonatas. Someone add the other stuff he wrote. Definitely more than "10 things."
an F9 chord on the piano is where you have the f major chord (F A C) and just add the 9th to it (which in this case is a G)

Some common 9th chord progressions used in jazz music include the ii-V-I progression, the iii-VI-ii-V-I progression, and the IV-V-I progression. These progressions often incorporate 9th chords to add color and complexity to the harmony.
Yes, but I'm not sure why you'd want to. You can modulate a magnetron so the plasma it generates will throw off audible sound...if you add a LOT of parts to the microwave oven. Some crazy man in Europe did this. It works, but the webpage he put up says this could kill you. And he's right. A less-dangerous way would be to put an MP3 player in the microwave, and a speaker in it, and control it with the microwave oven's timer.
