| | Symphony No. 7 (Beethoven) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | As was usual for symphonies at this time, it is in sonata form. | | | As with all the Beethoven symphonies, Liszt arranged it for (what would need to be an exceptionally talented) solo pianist. | | | After a slow introduction (as in Symphonies 1, 2, and 4) the first movement is dominated by lively dance-like rhythms. |

| | Oregon Symphony: Beethoven Symphony No. 7 |
| | Koussevitzky led the Boston Symphony Orchestra in the premiere of the Concerto for Orchestra on December 1, 1944 at Symphony Hall in Boston. | | | Beethoven conducted the premiere of the Symphony No. 7 on December 8, 1813 at the University of Vienna, at a benefit concert for Bavarian soldiers injured in battle against Napoleon. | | | The majority of Beethoven’s music, including all of his symphonies up through the eighth, was composed during this time; after 1812, as the Napoleonic wars, deafness, illness and age began to take their toll, his musical output slowed. |

| | Beethoven Symphony No. 5 |
| | Beethoven composed the Fifth Symphony on the heels of the completed Eroica, and at a time when many works were coming to fruition: the Rasumovsky Quartets, the Fourth Piano Concerto, the Violin Concerto and the Fourth and Sixth Symphonies. | | | Beethoven’s contemporary, composer Louis Spohr, admired this formal touch greatly, even though he castigated the symphony as a whole. | | | It is one of Beethoven's most striking transformations of the so-called Fate motive that opens the symphony. |

| | Ludwig Van Beethoven: Symphonies |
| | The symphony was first performed on 5 April 1803 at a concert at the Theater an Der Wien which also included the premieres of Beethoven's C minor piano concerto and oratario 'Christus am Oelberge'. | | | Beethoven's use of this A-B-A-B-A structure for a scherzo was the result of his quest to expand his writing musically and structurally at this time. | | | Beethoven provides interesting colour effects by having the timpani tuned to octave Fs, an effect he was to repeat in the scherzo of the 9th Symphony. |

| | Cover notes for the album state that the symphony was recorded October 24, 1955. | | | I think there is no question that in 1954 Pfeiffer and Chase handled the two channel stereo classical recordings for RCA, (LSC-1806) recorded in March 1954 for example. | | | Recorded Reiner performances of Beethoven's music at times were greeted by mixed critical reviews. |

| | BEETHOVEN |
| | With characteristic humor, Beethoven threatens to present the Trio still a third time ("What, again?", is the expected reaction from the listener), but suddenly he dismisses it with five brusque chords from the full orchestra, and we are ready for the next movement. | | | The tonic key of A major is emphatically established in the opening "call to attention"; excursions then follow to C major (the lyrical oboe theme that arrives after the succession of rising scales in the strings) and F major (the lyrical theme later in the flute). | | | The third movement is a double Scherzo and Trio in F major (one of the harmonic pillars of the symphony). |

| | After Beethoven's marathon concert of December 1808, which included the first performances of his Fifth and Sixth Symphonies, the city of Vienna was not to hear a new Beethoven symphony for some five years. | | | The finale is an sonata form, but Beethoven plays down the contrasts of tonality and the theme and gives the movement more the character of a coda to the entire symphony than an argumentative piece to be reckoned with in its own right. | | | Allegretto (The funeral march) from the Sevent Symphony (movement 2). |

| | Beethoven Allegretto From Symphony No. 7 Theme and Variations by Karl Lozier |
| | Jacques Loussier is quoted as saying; "I have always been haunted by the theme of the Allegretto (second movement) from Beethoven's Seventh Symphony since I first began to play music." Appropriately or not, Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 has been danced often by ballet corps. | | | Do remember that traditionally the second movement of a symphony is the slowest, "quietest" or most dance-like of the movements. | | | eethoven's Symphony No. 7 is, in my opinion, one of the ten best symphonies ever written. |
