Walter Murphy & The Big Apple Band - A Fifth Of Beethoven (1976 HD 720p)

Classical Disco

[adanfloresrodela]

This song is probably the first song in the classical music genre to ever top the billboard hot 100 chart, and the pop charts.

[MrNathan]

This arrangement’s so cool. I love classic music and Walter Murphy remake for Beethoven’s 5th was genius. When this first came out back in ‘76 we would rush to the dance floor. Had so much fun dancing to it. If Beethoven was there in ‘76 he probably would be admiring it, but disappointed that he couldn’t hear the electrical keyboards.

This song way back then was ahead of it's time.

Simply masterful, we had the record when I was a kid. Thanks for sharing it, it's like going back in time.

[PooNagoo]

So insane that the whole audience is sitting perfectly still as one of the funkiest tunes of all time is performed 😂

[THECLARENCES]

This song is pure brilliance. It made perfect sense. Disco was the 2nd coming of Classical music. If you broke down all the strings and horns in Disco, you had pure Classical brilliance. So, Walter brought the 2 together....brilliant!

simplemente genial fuera de serie el maestro Walter Murphy y su quinta sinfonía de Beethoven un clásico de clásicos

[verdettewilkins]

Love those trumpets. If Beethoven were alive in '76, it would be a disappointment not to see him on the dance floor.
