Beethoven: Symphonies nos. 7 & 8
Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Tafelmusik & Bruno Weil
Beethoven: Symphonies Nos. 7 & 8 is a collection of orchestral works by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in the early 1810s. Musically they contrast the Seventh's expansive, rhythmically driven character with the Eighth's more compact Classical clarity and humour, and together they occupy a pivotal place in Beethoven's middle-period output, signalling developments in orchestral writing that influenced later 19th-century symphonic practice.
First released: 11th November 2008
