Scuol Classics: 9. Sinfonie Ludwig van Beethoven
Scuol Classics presents the Ninth Symphony in D minor op. 125 by Ludwig van Beethoven in the Gurlaina ice rink in Scuol in the anniversary year «500 years of the Free State of Graubünden». Around 180 musicians from San Francisco and the Engadin, including Cinzia Regensburger, will perform Beethoven's masterpiece.
«Ode to Joy» is the fourth movement of Ludwig van Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, which was premiered in 1824. This important musical climax is based on Friedrich Schiller's poem and is a hymn to universal brotherhood and joy. The powerful melody and the textual call for unity and friendship have made it a symbol of peace and humanity. In 1972, Beethoven's «Ode to Joy» was declared the official anthem of the European Union, embodying the spirit of cohesion and hope for a better future.
