about Music – The Art of Listening. Programme 75

We are still on the path to compare and be able to identify the music of the three classical giants, Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven.
Today we look at Thematic, Rhythmic and Emotional developments in Beethoven’s music.
We start with the famous Symphony 5 with the “fate” motif, and in this symphony, we will find examples of the features I call Beethoven’s fingerprints.
After that a much easier work, a Wind Sextet, not often heard in concert.
Both of these works feature the meanings of “Sonata”, and if you think I am making too much of this, listen to find out why you must know and understand this musical structure to understand Beethoven’s music.
Enjoy!
