Have always loved this, it is really uplifting, but this is the best version I have ever heard. Am very moved by it. |

The church choir sang this at my Dad's memorial service. Always moves me to tears. |

If you stuck a hatpin in my backside I'd hit a high note....... but I'd be RR'd :-D |

Should I have said continual, or perhaps repeated high notes, instead of constant? |

I have sung it as a choral piece. The sopranos need somebody sticking hatpins in their backsides to get the constant high notes, though. But otherwise it is a joy to sing. |

Ode to Joy is a piece that our granddaughter plays to us on the violin...... a joy to hear bless her. K plays other musical instruments and very definitely takes after her paternal grandparents as hubby and I couldn't master the recorder in our schooldays. |

I always had the Pastoral Symphony in my van to play in traffic jams. |

I am aware of the connection, but it is still an amazingly uplifting piece of music. |

Poss. you are not aware that O2J is the anthem of the EU and for that reason has taken a sharp nose dive in popularity in the UK regardless of format. Apart from Mr Clegg that is. |
