What was Beethoven's longest piece of music?

The longest symphony ever written is Alexander Scriabin's "Preparation for the Final Mystery", realised posthumously by Alexander Nemtin who worked on it for 26 years and finished it in 1999. It lasts close to 3 hours. In the first stages of its conception and before his untimely death Scriabin imagined it to last for 7 days, accompanied by a colored light show, incense and dance. Formally it was assumed, Havergal Brian's symphony "Gothic" was the longest lasting about 2 hours. This one you can find listed in the "Guinness Book of Records".

What is muses longest song?

I dont know if it is the longest song, but "Citizen Erased" in the album "Origin of Symmetry" is one of the longest songs. Being 7 minutes and 21 seconds long. And just to let another muse fan know, there is a hidden song on the "Apsolution" album called "Fury". You can buy it on Itunes. Its really cool.*edit by Dynnnad:Citizen Erased would be the longest single album song they have. Though on the album "The Resistance" there is the exogenesis symphony. Which is basically one song during 12 minutes and +- 45 seconds, but it's split up into 3 songs but they perfectly merge together.
