Beaker of The Muppets gives a stunning, and hilarious, rendition of Beethoven’s classic Symphony No. 9 ‘Choral’, popularly called Ode to Joy.

it's funny because my nephew got an old Muppet DVD for Christmas called The Muppets Go To Space or soemthing like that – I've been sick and laying in bed when my nephew brought in the little portable DVD player and put the DVD in and left it playing. I had forgotten how funny the Muppets were. It was great watching it.

Tony,

I never saw the Muppets Go To Space movie, but I remember loving the "Pigs in Space" skit on the Muppet Show. Jim Henson and Co. were very creative and very funny.

Now that's my kind of classical music!
