If I had to own only one piece of classical music, Symphony No. 9 in D minor ("Choral") Opus 125 would be it. I remember flying cross-country back to San Francisco, listening to this CD has I gazed down upon the puffy white clouds and the beautiful mountain landscape below. Talk about "Ode to Joy!"

Part of National Public Radio's "Milestones of the Millennium" series, this is the 1961 recording of Cleveland Orchestra with George Szell conducting.
