Mozart's most famous choral work meets a piece by Beethoven that is surprisingly rarely heard: the Choral Fantasy. A peculiar mixture of choral cantata, piano concerto, and piano fantasy – including an early foreshadowing of the "Ode to Joy." This melody usually elicits an involuntary smile from listeners. What a wonderful moment of recognition! No wonder the work is often called Beethoven's "little Ninth."
