This was my 1st contact with Beethoven's symphonies 40 years ago. The music is the man. The man is the music. I went to listen to "Fidelio" last night. This is the same man, the one who produced the 9th symphony. After Jesus Christ, there must be Ludwig. Whoever is not honest and just can't comprehend Beethoven. Whoever listens to beethoven will become honest and just.

Personally, the first movement of Beethoven's symphony #3 is my favorite piece or part of a complete piece of music. There is nothing about it is in conformity with what was going on in the music world in the late 18th and early 19th century. It's as though Beethoven had given birth to another species within the music world, and it's incredibly wonderful. I never will tire of listening to it.

Amazing! Incredibly played. . on another note I once read that this symphony "depicts the sexual acts" with the dynamics and crescendos etc. being a metaphor for this.. does anyone interpret it this way?

[blazingvirtuosity]

You can only be wrong. And by the way it's 'Eroica' (meaning hero) not erotica... the symphony was composed in supposed honour of Napoleon.

[yohannbiimu]

The best idea I've ever heard explaining the first movement of the Eroica symphony is that it is "a battle"--by Leonard Bernstein. This comes across by the sense of "struggle" and "conflict" that is presented throughout it, especially during the development section.
