Beethoven’s most famous work unravelled

From the delicate Für Elise to the monumental Symphony no. 9, Beethoven's language is universal. Although he starts in the classical tradition, his tempestuous character and indomitable desire for freedom soon make his work stand out from the crowd. Of his many masterpieces, it is his Ninth Symphony that is nowadays the greatest audience favourite. In this course you will learn all about Beethoven, and especially about the exceptional nature of ‘his Ninth’.
