I love all of you still listening to classical music

Most people think that classical music is just boring but I think people like us are most lucky because we find peace in classical music. We find our emotions in it.

I don't often listen to Beethoven's 7th symphony, but when I do so do my neighbours

Okay , I am a teenager my teacher suggested this music to listen and I never expected it to be this fantastic

I love how he interrupts his composition to play an advertisement about kids pissing their beds. Truly a genius decision!

“An old friend once told me something that gave me great comfort. Something he had read. He said that Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin never died. They simply became music.”

This gives me war thunder 2013-14 hangar vibes. I have, for years, been whistling this tune over and over again. Good times.

Beethoven's music has always emotionally moved me, since I was a child. This particular Symphony makes my soul mourn, cry, swell with pride & courage with all the emotion.

Beethoven was born in 1770 and wrote this in 1811. When it premiered in Vienna in 1813, Beethoven himself conducted the orchestra. He didn't lose his hearing until 1819 (six years before he died in 1827). So he did hear it played.

ngl this some good shit wanna collab bro

First time I heard this piece was in "Knowing" with Nicolas Cage. The movie came out when I was 8 years old and I still get goosebumps everytime I recall the apocalypsis scene with this music in the background. Amazing!

Sitting at my desk with headphones on at full volume (must be trying to become Beethoven, I know) and when the crescendo came around, I felt a tear go out of my eye. I've never cried listening to a song or watching a movie at home until now, this is a very powerful piece.

This is the symphony you will hear on every radio station when the world ends.

This recording is from Leonard Bernstein's final concert which ended with Beethoven's 7th. He was dying of mesothelioma and purposefully chose this symphony as the last thing he would ever conduct. He was incredibly weak and tired; he suffered a coughing fit during the movement after this one. Think about that when you hear the Allegretto swell to its two famous crescendos. And how he held it together to conduct one of the most emotional compositions of classical music. When it debuted, the Allegretto drove audiences wild. It still does.

My Personal Favourite Part is 0:52 to 3:20 The Power, The soul, The Impact, how it builds up just everything about it is Perfect. If I could use one word to describe it, I’d use either Gripping, Perfect or Powerful. 10/10

We played this to our son in the car , at a reasonable volume, we never saw him move so much before that, even more fascinating is that he was still 3-4 months to yet being born , my wife's tummy was going in all different directions!

Lying in bed listening to Beethoven's 7th and the rain outside is bliss.

Beethoven will never be forgotten, he has gained immortality.

It’s an absolute privilege to listen to this and feel emotional. I’m from SE London , some might say uneducated but no, I really feel this!

I've been listening to this for years and the buildup from 6:00 gets me every time, it's so worth the wait and the calm escalation that turns into pure chaos is so emotional. I love it

This remains to be one of the most emotionally moving pieces I've heard in my life.

5th Symphony: Epic battle versus good and evil 6th Symphony: Beautiful day 7th Symphony: The Apocalypse followed by rebirth

Величайший гений. Действительно, вдох. Глоток воздуха. Столько эмоций.

This has been my favorite for 10 years now. The power of this song is hard to describe in words.

I remember bumpin' this in my carriage when it dropped.

This song has been making me cry for almost 4 decades.

My dad got tired of me constantly going on and on about how perfect Mozart was and how much better he was and everybody else and then he told me to listen to this and I think this is the most beautiful wonderful piece of music ever written in the history of the planet Earth

This symphony touches deeply my soul…

I love metal, jazz, rock... But classical music gives me chills! There is nothing comparable when you hear a whole orchestra live...

This tune is happy, sad, disturbing, majestic, tragic, beautiful, hopeful, curious and playful at the same time.

I find this piece invokes the feeling of constant pain and futility. Like sisyphus pushing the boulder up the hill, endlessly. An impossible and fruitless struggle that only serves to break your spirit, but one you can't escape. I've been listening to it a lot while playing Armored Core 6 and dying over and over and over and over again.

This is definitely one of Beethoven's best compositions

There is something beautifully mysterious and passionately haunting about this piece...

The power of this music is absolutely incredible, serene, reflective, and tinged with a deep piercing sadness. The first 3 minutes is like a victorious commander surveying a scene of utter decimation after a ferocious Napoleonic battle. No celebration, just relief and thanks to God for the few lives spared after a Pyrrhic victory.

Who else has become addicted like me to this masterpiece?

I'm really proud of that one.

This song is so bittersweet. It perfectly encapsulates the feeling you would have if everything around you started to fade out of existence until only you were left. Left to ponder your mistakes and greatest regrets until you inevitably fade away with the rest of the world.

I challenge anyone with a good heart to listen to this piece without having goosebumps

I'm pure rave rawstyle closer to 40 by now of a millennial generation, but hearing pure beautiful Beethoven and many other great conductors calms me in a way no other genre of music can. I hope in our future (millennials) that the classical music never dies. It's looking bad though, I just wish in my heart that it would get more attention in social media...

When this symphony debuted in 1813, it received a standing ovation. The orchestra immediately encored this movement.

Possibly the best classical piece ever. Such elegance. Such darkness. Such beauty.

The strings are the wind, woodwinds are the larks, tympani the thunder. A story without words only pictures. Incredible for a person with hearing. Think of the silence he heard.

One of the most soufull & hauntingly beautiful music pieces ever composed. I first hear it over 45 yrs ago when it was used at the end of the movie "Zardoz", again in "Knowing". But neither play the full piece which is so incredible. The true history even more so. Although I have a few hymns chosen to be played when I pass to the next life, I hope my family includes this piece for the beginning of my service. I can't imagine a better composition & I am a lover of all music. What a masterpiece! 🎶💙🎶

Those first 3 minutes.. my favourite piece of music of all time. Period

Best piece ever?

"this isn't the end son"

Merci Arielle Dombasle de piétiner cette œuvre magnifique avec de la merde inaudible.

How can a piece of music reach out from over 200 years ago and grab you by your soul.

I fell in love with Beethoven when I grew up. What he wrote is LIFE of every human. The beautiful, painful and yet wonderful life. His music resonates within my soul.

I will always thankful to my father for introducing me to the world of classical music... My father a child from a broken, miserable family who works from his 10th birthday and raise us in a house full of books, music, art and food. Thank you daddy for giving to me your dreams as a kid. I will always love you

One of the most evocative pieces of music ever written. If this doesn’t make you feel things you’re a robot

The United States was only 36 years old when this song came out.

The level of skill required to compose music as perfect as this is incomprehensible to me. He truly was one of the greatest.

The greatest song of all time, Beethoven was a damn madman.

The older that I get in this life, the more I appreciate Classical Music. It is calming and sootheing.

The first time I heard this composition was when I was 13 and I was watching the movie "Knowing" with Nicolas Cage. I was absolutely mesmerized with that moment and I fall in love with this composer

2019 - 1812 = 207 (Years!) Timeless.

So dark, tragedy at its prime and yet so lovely my favorite no shadow of doubt.

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of classical music I have ever heard in my life. Every time I hear it I get really emotional. One of Berthoven's most important works.

I feel like if Beethoven was a piece of his own music, this would be it. It sounds like a man who keeps to himself. A man molded by his past trauma, shrouded in his own ambition, and scorned by the world. He walks alone, and whenever he tried to find love in someone, it backfires. His only form of solitude come in his music. And even then, he’s losing the ability to hear his own creations. This piece perfectly encapsulates his anger, rage, depression, and momentary bliss with it’s almost melancholic motif. The main melody at the beginning of the movement feels like heavy footsteps. I envision Beethoven taking a walk through the countryside, hands behind his back, Frown on his face, thinking deeply about something troubling him. The end of the piece when everything gets quieter with the staccato strings and oboes reminds me of a sleepless night of trying to write music that just won’t come to you. You slowly drift off into sleep knowing that you failed to formulate the idea you had and you’ll never get the same melody back. And as the piece slowly fades to complete silence the next movement begins.

This is, without a doubt, my favorite of his pieces.

Every time I hear this symphony it makes me want to watch Mr. Holland's Opus again. I had zero interest in classical music until I first saw that movie and something about it made me start listening to it more often. I'm no musical connoisseur, but I can definitely appreciate the beauty and complexity of classical music now.

Did Beethoven ever make a bad movement in his symphonies? He pitched 9 perfect games as far as my humble mind can tell. Bravo Maestro!

One of the best Classical pieces. I can listen to it over and over.

This is what it sounds like to move on from life’s tragedies and regrets. You feel the ensuing pain and sorrow and the climax of it all and then eventually it all subsides, you feel some hope, time heals your wound and you feel stronger from it. Then in the later parts, the main phrase echoes again as if remembering the memory of the pain but this time accepting the pain with strength and fortitude, as if ready for more to come. Such a moving piece, very human.

this was one of my favourite pieces we played in high school orchestra. i didnt really enjoy playing cello (it hurt to bow, i now have permanent damage to the joint from six years of playing) but this piece was always so haunting and gorgeous with one of the most beautiful cello parts ive ever played. i remember we struggled on the timing, but once it all came together… oh we sounded gorgeous. i want to eventually pick up my cello again and play this, even if i know itll hurt. sometimes the pain is worth it for the beauty of music.

I just need to point out that the melody only has like 5 fucking notes, and at one point just repeats the same note like 20 times... and it's the most beautiful thing ever. Ludwig van Fucking Beethoven!

I admit I heard this song on the Movie “kings speech” The song hit me like a ton of bricks. Beyond beautiful and frightening as well.

This song came out in 1812. Feel old yet? edit: yo wtf obviously I know it’s a piece but do you know what else it is? A joke.

The best masterpiece of the best artist ever! Just wonderfull- after all this many many years.

Une pensée pour mon professeur de musique de collège qui nous a initié à la musique classique, c'était pas gagné surtout lorsqu'il a voulu nous apprendre le solfège et à jouer à la flûte ce morceau de Beethoven. Qu'est ce que notre classe était fière davoir travaillé et relevé le defi! Merci Professeur, la musique m'a moralement sauvée la vie dans les moments difficiles..))

My Music Theory Prof. referred to Beethoven as "The Composer who liberated music". Early on I didn't understand why. With more exposure to his music I caught on. He reimagined chord structure and progressions, creating musical phrases that were truly unique. Simple melodic motifs were transformed into timeless testaments. And of course, his total disregard for the old, formal conventions of classical music. A groundbreaking genius among geniuses. No movement, I believe, better captures the essence of Beethoven, the man, than this one does. Sublime.

This is one of the most beautifully melancholy songs Ive ever known. Beethoven was a legend that will never be compared

Emotions are more connected than words can ever express.. the brilliance of it all… the knowledge/formation/ and delivery will not ever be compared to today and tomorrow…

Makes me cry!!! Heard it in 1983 on Cosmos episode with Carl Sagan I believe when I was a teenager.

This is my favorite Beethoven symphony.

You can say what you want, but there is nothing better than classical music

I don't usually listen to classical music but this is other worldly. I'm envelope by it

The greatest piece of music the world has ever known. If anyone discovers us from other worlds and wants a short film to introduce ourselves, this music should definitely be playing in the background.

My mom had a CD with all the greatest pieces of classical music. This was one of them :) I remember crying to it because it just has that feeling, and it's so beautiful.

It's always nice to hear the soul of man

2:23 this drop is untouchable, shit is crazy 🔥🔥🔥

It's hard finding pieces of classical music. But once you find it. It's even more sweeter.

Anyone here from The Fall of the House of Usher? Yes? Good. I have loved this piece for almost 40 years, so I'm so happy that people are discovering it again - just like I did in the early 80s ❤

I cant stop listening to it.

"He who puts ads in the middle of Beethoven pieces on YT shall't not enter the kingdom of heaven." - Jesus Christ

probably my favourite piece of classical music

That first 10 seconds sends me EVERY time. Then whooooo it just goes and goes! Builds, swells, lies down, then explodes again. This composition still gets people emotional when it plays. I, for one can certainly attest to this.

One of the most beautiful themes I've ever heard...so much longing and so much intensity.

Never get tired of listening to this. It moves the soul.

Death stains the auditorium. The littered corpses of the once mighty council now strewn against its surfaces, their last gasps of life dripping down the dissident blade of Gabriel's sword. The last councilor, now backed up to a wall, scrambles for words between panicked breaths as death approaches with measured steps. "W-wait! Y-you can't do this! Our status forbids it! This is treason, heresy, murder! We are the supreme authority, our law commands you!" "You command nothing. Your words hold no power over me, or anyone else. Lest you truly believe you can talk my blade back into its sheath." "B-but the people are on our side! The citizens of heaven know that we are just!" "The masses only follow you out of fear and desperation. I will show them there is nothing to be afraid of, for there is no species nor origin, vested rank or holy status that will stop the sharp edge of a sword. We all bleed the same blood, and the cushions of your thrones have made you weak and impotent." "P-please, Gabriel, see reason! The council follows the will of the Father! You seek to go against our creato-" "Face it, brother. God is dead. The fire is gone. You're chasing phantoms." Gabriel's silhouette now towers over the councilor, his shadow cast upon a soon lifeless corpse. He raises his sword for the final cut as the crying mess on the floor stammers out his final feeble argument. "B-b-but the Father's light! Without me you cannot hope to reconnect with it! I-i-if you kill me, you'll be dead in a matter of hours!" ... "I know." A clean, silent cut glides through the councilor's neck, severing his spine with elegance and ease. His head falls onto the marble floor, the rest of his body following soon after. Bereft of status but brimming with purpose, Gabriel gave a final message to the angels amassed at the gates of the auditorium before leaving Heaven for the very last time. His arm outstretched, without a word, the people saw. In the silence the message rang out to the far ends of the cosmos.

This takes the battles and triumphs of life and makes it a symphony. Beauty encapsulated.

How can one song be so tragically beautiful💜

It's one of my most favorites, where you can visualize his commitment & passion for his art, as well as the ever present hope despite the tragic circumstances that he went through in his childhood, & adult life.

Amo esta sinfonia de Ludwing van Beethoven y el recuerdo de " AMADA INMORTAL" BELLISIMA !!!

So powerful. Moving. Goes with almost any dramatic scene you can think of.

It can be said that Beethoven's seventh symphony is the most beautiful of his symphonies. It is true genius incarnate. It is emotionally and thoughtfully ingenious. No other composer surpasses Beethoven, and no one ever will.

They’ll be listening to this in 2250.

Note to self: Beethoven and classical music in general is the best for writing and drawing. Wow. This made me have the perfect visual for a villain's turning point in one of my stories

Una persona no puede crear tan magnífica obra de arte ..... Es tan poderosa está melodía que podría, rajar la tierra, crear maremotos que llueva fuego y aún así disfrutar de lo sucedido.... Acelerar el corazón y luego llevarte al cielo
