Symphonies 5 & 7

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique & Sir John Eliot Gardiner

Symphonies Nos 5 and 7 are orchestral compositions by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1808 and 1812. They belong to the period between the Classical and Romantic eras and combine dramatic, tightly worked motifs with expanded orchestral forces; No 5 centres on a short four-note motif while No 7 emphasises rhythmic drive, and both show Beethoven move toward larger-scale, more dramatic symphonic writing.
