Is Mozarts Jupiter Symphony (Symphony No. 41) better than Beethovens 9th symphony?
I personally prefer Beethoven’s 9th. But comparing major works of musical geniuses of the caliber of Mozart and Beethoven is like asking which is better, raspberry gelato or chocolate chip mint ice cream? It can only be answered subjectively in terms of the listener’s taste. Today I might crave chocolate chip mint, and Beethoven. Tomorrow might be more of a gelato and Mozart day. Rest assured they were both brilliant composers, and both symphonies are well worth repeated careful listening.
