    Beethoven - Symphony No. 7

Not including the 9th, as that is something special all its own, this is my favorite of the Beethoven Symphonies. Here, take a listen one of my favorite recordings of it.

Also props on The Planets. We play all eight when we do outreach and will have Jupiter and Saturn on repeat when it is time to show those planets off to the public.

That's a fabulous recording!

We played the second movement last year (Allegretto) and I just loved my part. We cellos had an exciting part throughout the entire piece, which was super cool.

Allegretto is amazing. I used to listen to it often and recently rediscovered it while putting together the #3questions for coffeesp00ns.
