The work, about 20 minutes in length, is often seen as a precursor to the “Ode to Joy” in the 9th Symphony. After a piano introduction, a dialog between piano and orchestra develops in the space of just 400 measures, before the soloists and chorus enter for the last 200 measures. (If necessary, the solo parts can be sung by members of the chorus or a semi-chorus.)\u003ccr\u003e\u003ccr\u003eIn the main section, headed “Finale” (beginning with the double basses and celli), the theme from Beethoven’s early song “Gegenliebe” (WoO 118, also used in the “Ode to Joy”) is presented, varied and finally used in the “March” in F major.\u003ccr\u003e\u003ccr\u003eThe main source of the Choral Fantasia for the edition is the first edition of the parts, published in 1811 and corrected by Beethoven; alongside this an English edition of the parts published by Clementi (1810) has been consulted for comparison. The edition contains an English singing version in a translation by Natalia Macfarren from the 19th century.\u003ccr\u003e\u003ccr\u003e\u003c\/cr\u003e\u003c\/cr\u003e\u003c\/cr\u003e\u003c\/cr\u003e\u003c\/cr\u003e\u003c\/cr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description fr-view\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 href=\"#specifications\"\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specifications clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"gvi gvi-name-value font-name-value\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eSubtitle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eC Minor Op. 80 - Choral Fantasy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eComposer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eLudwig van Beethoven\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eProduct Format\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eVocal Score\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eArranger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eXaver Scharwenka\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eEditor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eUlrich Leisinger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eInstrument Group\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eMixed Choir\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eSoloists [SSATB], SATB, Piano and Orchestra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eVocal Score\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eText language\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eEnglish;German\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eCarus Verlag\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eYear of Publication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003e2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eDefinitive Duration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003e00:20:00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eNumber of Pages\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003e44\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eISMN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003e9790007187682\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eEdition Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eCV 10.394\/03\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"name\"\u003eNo.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"value\"\u003eCV1039403\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"South London Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56243734315394,"sku":null,"price":11.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/9402\/3478\/files\/cv1039403_0.jpg?v=1769528684","url":"https:\/\/southlondonmusicshop.co.uk\/products\/beethoven-fantasie-for-pno-choir-orch-op-80","provider":"South London Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
