FAQ
Q: What happened to the original version of this video?
A: The first version of this video was based on a recording I licensed from Royalty Free Classical Music ...
royalty-free-classical-music.org/
.. in 2009. In 2012, it appeared that the license might not be valid for my use (on my TH-cam channel; some of RFCM's recordings were pirated, see ...
www.rhinegold.co.uk/classical_...
... so I got a second license (for the same recording) from Premium Beat. When. in 2015, Premium Beat discovered that the recording had been pirated, they removed it from their catalog, refunded my license fee, and hired an eastern European pick-up orchestra to record a new version (which is what I've used in this video). The performance in this new recording is not as good as the original --- which is not surprising since the pirated recording was most performed by a world-class orchestra. If you'd like to help pay the license fees to a better recording, I'd be happy to re-do this video; please read this ...

This is a miracle. Just a goddam miracle
A labour of love thank you so much. Hare Krishna
This is my favorite symphony, I can't believe he wrote this when he was pretty much deaf. So inspirational
Mine too
Can you believe it was also used in a movie?
@@nickvalintine4652 probably in multiple
@@Pietra430 it was most memorable for being in the movie Knowing.
@@nickvalintine4652 yeah didn't Beethoven actually write it for that movie?
I know nothing about music,can,t read a note.But my ears,my heart and my brain allow me to enjoy every beautiful note. I can then
appreciate the genius of the composers.
Beethoven was especially good at building tension through gradual change in dynamics. This piece illustrates that perfectly
my favorite piece of music. I'm not musically educated but this piece speaks to me of a profound sadness, yet acceptance and ultimately triumph. words fail me.
BluJay don't worry. LvB was always intended to compose music which can reach the heart of everyone always at every time. He was also the first "Rockstar" with a great audience. At the beginning of his carreer he performed a big piano tour through Europe.
Indeed, well put!
Here it is a list of Academic Music:

It's hard to believe a human being could write something so perfect.
I'm currently doing an online course exploring Beethoven's piano sonatas and the lecturer has just pointed out the following: "Beethoven is [...] the first composer to be attracted to the dramatic possibilities that come from mere repetition. I was shocked when a composer told me that he thought of the second movement of the seventh symphony as being the first ever work of minimalism."
What’s the course name I'm interested in exploring Beethoven masterpieces
@@keyboarddancers7751 cool
It's not the first minimalist work. It's far too melodic...especially with the counter melodies. The first minimalist piece of music was the first movement of the 5th. The entire movement exists on the repetition of a single, 4-note motif that can't, by itself, be considered a melody. In the parlance of todays music, it's based entirely on "riffs".
@@bwacuff169 "Aacckktttuuaallllyyy...."
Can we hear this in heaven?
What an extraordinary visual representation of the music. Absolutely on point. Seems like you're not just listening to the music but staring into the mind of the composer.

2 oboes: Cyan inverted ellipse (star)

I appreciate your diligence!
The sad background to this music was that Beethoven was losing his hearing so he created this song mirroring his sadness to never hear his music again
Jared D What age was he then?
Oooh, this is my new favourite thing. Really gives a great impression of what it's like to read a score to those who can't read music. The perfect movement to show graphically - thanks for your work!
This has to be the most beautiful music I've ever heard it literally brings me to tears
You must play it loud.
We are born and we die, but in the meantime we are able to enjoy this piece of marvelous beauty
It's like walking out of the darkness towards the light. I can think of no other music which shows that in the same way.
@@CathyKitson You summed it nicely, but I have a bit darker view. To me, it conveys absurdity of a transient life. With a tiny glimmer of hope at the end.
@@natkojurdana9673 I agree. The darkness at the beginning encapsulates the tragedy of mankind.
Perfection. Every time. Amplified with a fine cognac and a leather recliner. Bravo.
Can of Stella and, doobie and a beanbag for me
Somehow I don't see rap music having the same staying power as this music.
Hari Seldon Depends on which rap music, some it will be a part of classic American music like Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five and Gil Scott Heron. The thing is much of the mass-produced music today regardless of genre is made for quick bucks and not for lasting power. Add to this the Cambrian explosion of modern music styles and outlets such that the even best artists only get clique audiences. Unlike previous eras there really is no "mainstream" like radio or concert halls that indoctrinates "proper" music. Amazing artists that are just as great as Beethoven like Frank Zappa, Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Autechre, and others fade in a generation. We are currently a very ephemeral culture.
Tl;dr you like classical music and hate rap because the mainstream is dead.
Hari Seldon I'm solely a concert band and jazz player, yet many of my musician friends appreciate simpler music such as rap or electric subgenres because they require less mental attention and convey emotions in simpler ways. Their understanding allows them to appreciate these types of pieces more, but causes them to be exhausted. It's all about perspective.
This is gorgeous!! This, fellow humans,...this is what it's all about.We can do this. We are an amazing species.
I hope we can be one day...
I think this is my favourite piece of classical music ever ! 💜💕
ya know, after the 9th, the 5th, the 3rd, and the 6th... #7 still kicks some ass.
This song never ceases to amaze me even after hearing it many hundreds of times, and this visual representation is stunning. Thank you!
Once I had left the radio on when I went to bed, it was tuned to a classical music station. It was uneventful until I started dreaming of golden fields and wildly fantasist structures, and I was being pulled along as if in a ride. I couldn't see myself and I don't think I even was "me" in that dream; there was no plot or characters, it was just... like a bird flying in the airs with not a single care in the world, and throughout that dream I heard this song.
When I woke up I heard the end of the song on radio and I felt well-rested. Music's a hell of a thing.
I once had that happen. The music was Philip Glass' Einstein at the Beach. It was awesome.
Wow, that sounds so cool and incredible.
I've had very similar dreams and as you said they are the best dreams and waking up with a smile on my face :)
Music is a dreadful thing. What does it do? I don't understand it
Beethoven being deaf, he would have loved seeing this display of his work.
He wasn’t deaf 100 % yet when writing this
@@natcharmusic Still
Hauntingly beautiful as many put it. I find this piece so appropriate with the events going on around us. Feels almost too dramatic to be real but here we are.
I couldn't agree more. The feelings that come with the sound are inevitable and forced upon you by LVB. Amazingly beautiful! A perfect fit for the emotional landscape of our current time.
Have you heard how it's used in the film, The King's Speech? Another momentous time in history.
Perfectly put. 😞 ❣️
@@patriciakronk5351 I’ll need to check that out.
learning it at the guitar with my orchestra, such a powerful symphony, so majestic 🙏
I rarely click 'like', this one was earned by the excellent FAQ.
These Visuals make it sound better
Interesting how that works, huh?
It allows you to hear better all the parts playing at once.
The sound makes the visuals look better.
This movement is paradise for viola players. It was an honor to have played it.
Oh, my God! My mortal words cannot begin to describe the beauty, majestry, emotions of a mere mortal composing this music!
I, a mere mortal, rock and roller, have played guitar for over forty years. The beauty of this humbles me to my heart and soul Happy Damn Birthday, Ludwid Van Beethovan. I feel your soul. This is my very favorite composition of yours. With much love.
Now you know how hard is the conductor's job. The animation in this piece clearly demonstrates it.
i think this could get more people interested in classical music
What a great way to illustrate the complexity of Beethoven's Seventh. The colors help the listener to hear when the melody is handed back and forth through the sections of the orchestra. I love the counterpoint.
All I hear when I listen to this is just complete heartbreak. It's beautiful on a level that so few of us could ever comprehend.
It just feels as if Beethoven would have done anything to hear his own music. You can feel that pain and frustration in this.
I so agree. The heartbreak is palpable. But I find a redemption in it too. Tentative, maybe; reached for, certainly. A sweet recall of what once was, or a longing for what could have been. Or both. It closes with a nod to neither heartbreak nor redemption. It's a settling in (especially organized graphically, in this vid; you can see it), an exhale. Acceptance, perhaps.
Rips my heart out every time, still ❤️
Just think though, he could still hear all this in his head. Beethoven is imprinted emotionally in these notes, the waves and harmony, discord and then triumphant hell no we won't go kind of attitude that inspires me to this day. He lived his dream, even when life said no, he said, no, back..
@@taraemcintyre .. I just couldn't agree more. The abyss coming up to engulf around 6:44 ?? full on despair @ 6:53 ?? .. Quiet reflection around 7:15 ?? .. I hear acceptance in the last bit, too. Just an incredible piece of music.
The 18th C had Mozart and Bach; the 19th C had Beethoven and Chopin and more... the 21st C has Cardi B and Kim Kardashian and all the deck-chair IQ people that subcscribe to that rap culture garbage... It's evident society started devolving in the later half of the 20th C
I keep coming back here. It's my favorite piece and this helps me see what I hear. Thank you :)
The endless storylines you could create listening to this..
Thanks to the visualization I could follow instruments in the orchestra that I never noticed before. Great work!
Gorgeous piece of music but the visuals are mesmerising 💕
This is the greatest music ever made. I shed a tear around 4min, goosebumps... Never had this reaction to a music... Incredible.
I know what you mean. It happened to me too when I listened to it for the first time many years ago.
Famous Beethoven quotes.... ‘ I think this would be good in a film’
Knowing 2009
In this grave hour...
This is my favorite piece that I know from Beethoven.
How can ANYONE give this a thumbs down? Smh. This displays all that is going on in genius Ludwig’s mind ALL AT THE SAME TIME👍
Hey, do you music people know anything about the paintings of Pieter Mondrian? Well, this visual is to Beethoven what "Broadway Boogie-Woogie" is to Jazz! The two arts DO intersect sometimes!
Still the best bass drop ever
I have to say from a non sight reading musician this animation is nothing short of amazing! In terms of understanding what the individual parts are doing and their relationship to each other this makes it extremely easy to understand a dissect. Bravo - you have a new subscriber!

I am feeling a lot of despair and depression recently. This song is the perfect mood for it.
Try the funeral march from his 3rd, and the album "Hvis lyset tar oss" by Burzum. Good luck with your life!
@@itamarabramson5603 i will try it right now. I've been looking for music to meet the hopeless mood I'm feeling
@Elizabeth LaPlante Thank you for these recommendations
Also mozart requiem and handel sarabande they are soo good ☺
You are performing god's work smalin, thank you!
If satan is your God then I guess
The underappreciated part of Allegro 2 fascinates me
The melody, 1:56 usually takes center stage in media
Silence the ringing
Turn off all the lights
Stop all the singing
No dinner tonight

@@peppejaclap It's a reference to an episode of the amazing world of Gumball called "Christmas".
I know this orchestra is different from the original upload but I'd love to give my absolute respect to the conductor who brought out the French horns as much as they did in this rendition. As a fellow French horn player ... Holy crap this scratched my need to hear mids brought through this distinctly.
This piece has, for me, always displayed the brilliance of Beethoven's music and watching the way this graphic presentation of the piece is terrific. The way these two melodies run together and play off each other is just heavenly and pure genius. I love the 9th, but for me this is the one that really floats my boat.
This visualization is amazing. It truly reveals how beautiful, complex and majestic this composition is, fascinating.
Absolutely stunning! I'm sitting here in awe. Thank you for making such a lovely representation of one of my most favorite pieces.
2:36 the feels ❤️
I got those when I played this piece in the 8th grade
By listening to the mid-range bouncing triads
the piece takes on a beauty that elicits tears.
Truly masterpiece. Always leaves me wanting for more
This is a delight, I can't listen to it enough.
This piece lights my soul like no other. Heavenly ❤️
true true
That's fantastic. It really makes it easy to appreciate the formal design of the music and the way Beethoven uses the different timbres in the orchestra.
After hearing this in war thunder I drove myself mad trying to find this, then my ears pleased me, this song forever reminds me of a German pilot in flight now
Yah. For some reason when I hear this song, I imagine a Luftwaffe ace shooting down Spitfires while listing to this in his plane.
no matter how many times i listen to this, from 6:40 to 7:00 i start crying of joy... "my heart soars with the eagle's nest" ~Michael G. Scott
This movement is a funeral march, as well as a variation.
I can't fathom the amount of creativity that went into composing this, or any music, and now I've SEEN the amount of work. Now I have to try to understand the work that you have put into allowing me to SEE what I'm hearing. Thank you.

I'm a sucker for wailing violins, especially building to a crescendo, this piece is my favorite for that
During the winter coronavirus lock down in my country the national orchestra made a TV spot playing this music piece to raise awareness for the pandemic and support for the struggling medical personel.
*This. music. piece.*
You cannot fathom, let alone understand the impact it created.
What country is that?
Beethoven inspires eternally!
Beautiful Allegretto Masterpiece, and Visual Work-out.
The Travelling Sounds of Beethoven.
Whispers to my ears.
Thank you for this. The Seventh has always resonated powerfully for me. To watch/listen to your graphic representation is wonderful.
Fantastic visualization of this masterpiece! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Without a doubt, my favorite.
Thank you Sir. The genius was Beethoven who wrote it in his mind and Smalin who enabled us to see it. The last is the brilliant original idea and execution.

This is more than brilliant, visualising music in this way ,and breaking it down so simply into graphics is Genius thanks for taking the time to do this and sharing it
So easy to follow the cello (or any other) part. Thank you for sharing your artistry with us.
Beautifully done. Really an enhancement of the experience for what it truly my favorite piece of music. Bravo and Thank You. I also love that you're using a version of this piece that is played in the perfect tempo. Having seen the piece done live a few times, sometimes it seems like it gets performed a tad quick for best effect IMO.
totally amazing this. a new concept in reading music, a very clever man to do that
My favourite piece of music! Thank you so much for updating this. I can still remember the first time I ever heard this. I was at a friend's house, and he'd just got one of those new-fangled CD player things. I had tears running down my cheeks by the time this movement was over. So beautiful...
This is like the magnetic force between two lovers in a dance that grows evermore intense and deeper as time goes on. It's a drama with passion that provokes more interest. Not a boring moment here!🎼🎶🎵💞🌹🇩🇪👍🎭🤔💟⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❗
I can't describe how wonderful this is and how it makes me feel. I can't so I won't. As promised. I just love it.
It's the biggest problem with the human mind. We cannot describe anything we feel to another person without using coarse analogies and metaphors. I guess we just have to assume everybody feels everything the same way.
Grief and Consolation in Beethoven's universal language.
Just profound and glorious.
To be played at Funeral Marches.
I'll have it played at mine.
I see and hear things in this I’ve never heard before. Amazing.

what a wonderful demonstration of how music develops.
Thank you!
i was randomly looking for this song because i didn’t know the name of it and it was the first one i clicked on to wow
Fascinating this is the 432 Hz (=A) version versus 446Hz. Im listening to this 432Hz version on 2 phones: one with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and this one. Of course... Berlin version wins :) . Love all your notations!! Thank you. Bashar spoke about the healing effict of esp the first 3 minutes. Theres a 30 minute loop of it on youtube ohmmmm
Can you appreciate such a beautiful, engaging and magical music like that? Omg that's just from another world, just listen to those violas!
Great job Smalin, thanks for posting this.
Thank you smalin for the graphics, I finally realize now, this is pure genius in motion. I think I will attempt to learn to read/write musical notation properly this time around, begin to write songs once again myself, and attempt to rival this perfectionate beauty, at least in my spare time perhaps. But yes, it is a consideration I intend to venture upon. That said, Beethoven, though deaf, will always be the greatest composer to ever grace us. such beauty... such love in art. Aloha!
This is an amazing piece of art, beautiful beyond words rendition of Beethovens Symphony # 7 - 2nd movement. It brought me to tears.
This is totally awesome - thankyou for what you have done!!!
I always get goosebumps when this plays
Love this. Almost reaffirms my belief in the human race.
Bravo...what a perfect visual accompaniement to what is now my favourite classical piece of music
the colors and the entire visuals give new life to a beautiful piece of music. Thank You!
What a brilliant idea! You've made my eyes part of my ears, to hear beauty better. I'm off to your website, thank you!!

you make a so beautiful work !!! Thank you so much 🌟
I keep returning to this video just because I love seeing the little fugal section just as much as I like hearing it!
Wow I couldn't appreciate the development of this piece before. Thanks!
Herzlichen Dank für die wundervollen Bearbeitungen der Musikstücke.
Ganz besonders liebe ich dieses Stück. Erinnert mich jedesmal beim hören an den Film "The King's Speech" (Die Rede des Königs).
Freunden leite ich es weiter mit den Worten "Salmis tanzen".
An diesem Video kann ich mich gar nicht sattsehen und satthören.

Thank you very much for the wonderful arrangements of the music pieces.
I especially love this piece. Reminds me of the movie "The King's Speech" every time I hear it.
Friends I forward it with the words "Salmis dancing".
I can't get enough of watching and listening to this video.
Thank you 💛
Smalin, what an ingenious person you are!
Thanks!
Beautiful. Absolute masterpiece, I have tears rolling down my cheeks from this magnificent piece.
Thanks Smalin, keep up the good work.
This is the way that I "see" every music in my brain!
