Sinfonie №5 c-Moll Opus 7 Partitur
Autors: L.van BeethovenA symphony is a large work composed for an orchestra that is divided into four movements; these movements present contrasts in tempo and emotional intensity. Less than 20 years since Mozart composed his Symphony No. 40 in G Minor (1788), Beethoven composed his Symphony No. 5 in C Minor, Op. 67, between 1804 and 1808, when it was first performed in a theatre in Vienna (Grove, 148). This is Beethoven's most well-known symphony, probably from its famous four-note motive: three short and one long note and its motivic development throughout the entire symphony. Before Beethoven, few large-scale, multi-movement works contained one main motivic idea in one movement to be heard in the other movements. With his Symphony No. 5 in C Minor, Beethoven introduces the idea of a common thread that can be heard periodically in all four movements. This technique is called motivic development, in which simple patterns of several notes are repeated again and again until they become a recognizable theme. Beethoven's style of motivic development allowed him to achieve, what he called "varied unity" and "unified variety" throughout the course of a movement. Perhaps one of Beethoven's greatest talents as a composer lay in his ability to develop simple motives into complex unifying themes, although he could write a long, beautiful melody when he needed one. All of these compositional innovations can be heard in careful analysis of the first movement of Symphony No. 5.
