From the Vault: Beethoven's Symphony No. 3, "Eroica" – I. Allegro Con Brio

If one symphony can be called a turning point in the method Beethoven and the world viewed the form, it is the “Eroica.” Where Beethoven’s first two symphonies are elegant and decorously Classical, with the influence of Haydn and Mozart clearly heard, the Symphony No. 3 is a bold musical utterance that is longer in duration and bolder in its concepts than were its predecessors– literally a “Sinfonia Eroica,” or heroic symphony.

Relive the very first motion of this magnum opus with this recording from Dec. 5, 2015. Readily available to view now through March 13.
