Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Widely regarded as the most memorable and musically concentrated of Beethoven’s orchestral works, his symphony No. 5 is also one of the most popular works in the literature. With its unforgettable four-note motive, lean textures and superb orchestration, it is a classic example of the thematic unification Beethoven developed during his middle period- a creative time during which his music exhibited unprecedented freedom of expression and exultation./ Répertoire / Partition de Poche
