Richard Atkinson chooses and discusses the "most beautiful passages" from each of Beethoven’s 9 symphonies. This is a fair use educational commentary that uses small excerpts from recordings of the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique conducted by Sir John Eliot Gardiner (Symphony #1), the Berliner Philharmoniker conducted by Herbert von Karajan (Symphonies 2-9), the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Sir Georg Solti (Das Rheingold), the London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Per Dreier (Peer Gynt), and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini (Bruckner). For best results, view this video full-screen and listen with good-quality headphones or speakers.
