Tschechische Symphoniker Prag / Coro di Praga / Martin Peschík

The 5th Symphony, the »Symphony of Fate«, by Ludwig van Beethoven is perhaps the most famous symphony in music history, and not just because of the first four notes – about which Beethoven himself is said to have said, »Thus fate knocks at the door.« In the midst of the turmoil of war, revolution and personal crises, Beethoven wrote a work that revolutionised the entire world of music. His musical journey from minor to major, from darkness to light, inspired all future generations of composers.
