Nicholas Cook suggests that "sheer perversity" is the reason why the composer of this work chose to compose a difficult, chromatic solo for the fourth horn in its third movement. The return of the timpani ends the trio section of its second movement, while a coda with an ostinato in the cellos and basses ends the first movement. Wagner dubbed the opening of its fourth movement "Schrenkensfanfare," while "hammer-blow" octaves open its second movement "Scherzo." However, most notable is the movements that follows the third movement "Adagio" and is scored for four soloists, orchestra, and chorus. For 10 points, name this "Choral" final symphony of Beethoven's which contains a setting of Schiller's "Ode to Joy"?
