Many composers have written 5 symphonies but I think you are referring to the famous fifth symphony of Ludvig van Beethoven, normally referred to as Beethoven's Fifth. The opening notes were used by the BBC during the World War II to represent the letter V (for victory) - a great piece of irony on someone's part as Beethoven was German.

∙ 8y agoThe first choral symphony, which is, by definition, a symphony that features a performing choir, was Beethoven's No.9. Ludwig van Beethoven composed nine symphonies, his final being the Choral Symphony; it is also one of his most beloved works. Its final movement includes a choir's singing the much admired and widely recorded 'Ode to Joy'.
The distinguished Romantic Era composer, Gustav Mahler (1860 - 1911), also composed a number of symphonies which include choral movements. Mahler-II, Mahler-III, Mahler-IV, and Mahler-VIII feature solo performances and passages for for choirs or choral groups. In addition to these, Mahler's beautiful "Das Lied von der Erde" (in English: "Song of the Earth"), is often referred to as a 'song cycle' symphonic work.
