Composer: Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827)Composed: 1808First performed: 22nd December 1808, Theater an der Wien, ViennaArtists in first performance: Ludwig van Beethoven (piano)Lyricist: Christoph Johann Anton Kuffner

The Fantasy for piano, vocal soloists, mixed chorus, and orchestra, Op. 80, usually called the Choral Fantasy, was composed in 1808 by then 38-year-old Ludwig van Beethoven.

Beethoven intended the Fantasy to serve as the concluding work for the benefit concert he put on for himself on 22 December 1808; the performers consisted of vocal soloists, mixed chorus, an orchestra, and Beethoven himself as piano soloist. The Fantasy was designed to include all the participants in the program and thus unites all of these musical forces.
