Philharmonia Baroque's recording of Beethoven's Opferlied and 9th Symphony is at last available on Magnatune, and we think you'll agree that it was well worth the wait. Not only does this entire performance crackle with dramatic intensity and power, but the sound quality is superlative—it's both deeply rich *and* crystal clear. A sublime array of international soloists are featured, and for Beethoven's thrilling, timeless riff on Schiller's "Ode to Joy," no less than *three* different choral groups combine into one fiercely profound powerhouse of sound. "This may be the ideal 9th for a new generation," —Timeout New York.
