User Reviews

The Beethoven’s 9th Symphony app is highly praised for its multi-recording comparisons, synchronized browsable score with an orchestra map, and rich educational content (libretto, analysis, video). It appeals to both casual listeners and musicians, offering a polished, immersive experience with background playback. A frequent concern is problems restoring the full version after updates, which can force repurchases or cause temporary loss of access.

Pros

Multiple renditions/recordings with seamless switching between them
Browsable, synchronized score with an interactive light-up map of the orchestra
Libretto, in-depth analysis, and video content (e.g., Bernstein)
Accessible to non-musicians while still valuable for professional musicians
Polished, educational, immersive design with features like background playback

Cons

Purchase restoration issues after reinstall/iOS updates; may require repurchasing or experience access lockouts

This is a must have if you are a student of music at any age. Being able to see the instrument being played while watching the conductor or reading the notes is so wonderful and puts your heart closer to the music!

Of course both Beethoven and his Ninth Symphony are each one of the best, but this app is one of the best iPad apps I have ever used. Very approachable as a non-musician (like me), it is also excellent for professional musicians. I wish they would give the same treatment to The Fifth and other top classical works! Please buy this to encourage more of this outstanding content. (Note that it collects no data from you…none!)

Beautiful music with libretto, analysis, 4 different renditions, and video for the Bernstein one. Have been listening to it for years, thank you for the joy and comfort it brings me.
