Which Beethoven's symphony do you like the best?


And Why?

I have asked this question to many. The answer is always inconclusive. So I think I will try this here. Thank you in advance for responding.

Also, it would be interesting to know which composition do you like the best?

Eldartford, would you ever be able to compose something at least as good as the "worst" Beethoven's symphony? I'm sure not!
The 9th is one of the 5 best symphonies ever written (and for some musicologists, the best of all), and since my point of view, one should not say that the 9th is overrated just because is not able to appreciate it.

Rcprince, be patient with this symphony as you were with Mahler's music, if you liked the 7th I'm almost sure you'll love the 9th after a while.

Eldartford, would it make sense to you if I said Mozart's last 5 symphonies are overrated? I guess you would laugh.
Eldartford, you should learn that Mozart was not the only who composed wonderful music. Who was the best, Beethoven or Mozart? I think nobody should argue about that, for me, they both are at the very top (alongside the great Joahnn Sebastian). Regards.
