Which Beethoven's symphony do you like the best?

The fifth is OK. The others are so-so. The ninth proves how deaf he was (IMHO).

On the other hand, Mozart never wrote anything that isn't wonderful.

Dear Eldartford

Just a matter of opinion; just a matter of opinion! Yours!!

I believe the moonlight sonata was composed by the great composer with his head pinned on the top of the piano for vibrations as he could not hear anything. We can hear, does it mean we can compose somthing better than moonlight sonata? Come, come, we ought to respect him for what he gave us! If the 9th was so bad it would be forgotten by now!

A_e_watkins..IMHO means In My Humble Opinion. The question asks for opinions, and that's mine.

And yes, Quadophile, Beethoven wrote some really good stuff, but I think that his Symphonies are overrated.
