Symphonies Nos. 3 & 6

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Hermann Scherchen & Orchester der Wiener Staatsoper

Symphonies Nos. 3 and 6 are orchestral works by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1804 and 1808 respectively. They illustrate Beethoven's expansion of the symphonic form and expressive range, with the Third employing extended dramatic structures and bold harmonic language while the Sixth adopts a programme-like, nature-inspired character and lighter, pastoral textures, marking important developments in his middle-period output and in early 19th-century music.
