Let's celebrate the Christmas and New Year holiday period with Beethoven's "Ode to Joy".

The orchestra is augmented by a choir plus Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass soloists, who in the final movement sing verses from a poem by Schiller called the "Ode to Joy". Beethoven's music is a set of variations on this theme, which is now the Anthem for the European Union.
