To put it in simple terms, Beethoven has to be the most
inspirational, most multi-talented composer of his time, and has
definitely inspired a number of multi-talented composers today.
Anyone who thinks this music is junk needs some serious culture
instilled into their seemingly hollow minds plagued by britney
spears sensationalism. To everyone else... enjoy this lovely set :-)
Tracks 1-4:
Symphony No. 3 in E-Flat major, Op. 55, Eroica (Bamburg Philharmonic Orchestra)
Tracks 5-8:
Symphony No. 4 in B-Flat major, Op. 60 (London Festival Orchestra)
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)
Beethoven once described himself as someone "who did everything
badly except compose music." Clumsy, arrogant and rough, he
experienced as much difficulty making friends as keeping time while
dancing. Although Beethoven may have been out of tune with society
he harmoniously inspired and united subsequent generations. Fueled
by Fate, Power and Nature, his music is an intimate reflection of
artistic, emotional and spiritual struggle.
Born and raised in Bonn, Beethoven showed strong musical
aptitude at an early age. Despite an almost total lack of schooling
(which plagued him in latter life), Beethoven excelled at the
pianoforte, organ, violin and viola. Following lessons with his
father and court organist Christian Gottlob Neefe, Beethoven
traveled to Vienna in 1786 to study with Mozart. Upon returning to
Bonn, he taught and played viola in the court opera orchestra - an
occupation that exposed him to the masters of serious and comic
opera.
Despite Beethoven's unhappy domestic life (His mother died while
Beethoven was in Vienna, and his father was a miserable drunkard.),
his music and childhood friends became an endless source of comfort.
One of his closest acquaintances was Count Waldstein, who not only
was the dedicatee of the C-major Piano Sonata, Op. 53, but also
helped finance Beethoven's return to Vienna in 1972. Not long after
his arrival, the 22-year-old Beethoven was unanimously declared
Vienna's foremost pianist and one of its leading composers.
Apart from occasional visits to the countryside, Beethoven spent
the rest of his life in Austria's musical capital. For 30 years, his
fame as a virtuoso improviser and revolutionary composer gripped the
city, despite his coarse behavior. Although biographers depict
Beethoven as a wretched man - his catalog of squabbles with
publishers, patrons, musicians and friends being inexhaustible, his
creative achievements far outweigh his social imperfections.
Among Beethoven's greatest contributions was that to symphonic
form. Unlike his predecessors Haydn and Mozart, who merely refined
the symphony, Beethoven, over a course of 25 years, fashioned it
into a grand, dramatic art-form. Whereas the Eroica fulfills the
symphony's potential for tragic poetry, the Fifth Symphony
represents heroic transformation. The Seventh Symphony illustrates
an emancipation of spirit, while the Ninth celebrates the fraternity
of mankind.
By composing out of spiritual necessity, Beethoven effectively
bridged the gap between Classicism and Romanticism. Due to his
growing deafness, which began in 1802, Beethoven sought refuge in
nature, which inspired many stirring works. Although his music may
have been misunderstood, it was - and remains - never neglected.
