The Metropolitan Opera's first performance of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 took place Sunday, April 13, 1913, as the last of 22 Sunday night concerts held in the Metropolitan Opera House in the opera company's 1912-1913 season.
Symphony No. 9 in D Minor, Opus 125, by German composer and pianist Ludwig van Beethoven (bapt. Dec. 17, 1770-March 26, 1827) received two performances in the 1912-1913 season. The symphony's first Met Opera performance took place as a night concert Sunday, April 13, 1913. The second performance was offered as a matinee performance on Friday, April 18.
Arturo Toscanini (March 25, 1867-Jan. 16, 1957) conducted the Ninth Symphony's debut and second performances. The Parma, Emilia-Romagna region-born Italian conductor had made his Met Opera debut Monday, Nov. 16, 1908, in the opera company's 126th performance of Aida by 19th-century Italian opera composer Giuseppe Verdi (Oct. 10, 1813-Jan. 27, 1901). The maestro held his position as Met Opera's conductor for seven seasons. He made his last appearance as Met Opera's conductor on Wednesday, April 14, 1915, in the opera company's 11th performance of Iris by Italian opera composer Pietro Mascagni (Dec. 7, 1863-Aug. 2, 1945).
Beethoven's Ninth Symphony transforms from an orchestral work into a work for chorus and four vocal soloists in the fourth, final movement. Beethoven set the symphony's vocal portion to an adaptation of "An die Freude" ("Ode to Joy"), a lyric poem written in 1785 by 18th-century German physician, philosopher and poet Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller (Nov. 10, 1759-May 9, 1805).
