Symphony No. 8
Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Wiener Philharmoniker & Simon Rattle
Symphony No. 8 is the eighth symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1812. Set in F major, the work employs concise classical forms, playful humour and pronounced rhythmic drive, and occupies a transitional place in Beethoven's middle period as a more compact, classically oriented companion to some of his contemporaneous, more expansive works, illustrating his ongoing experiments with form and expression.
