Symphony no. 4 in B-flat major, op. 60 / Symphony no. 5 in C minor, op. 67

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & London Symphony Orchestra & Wyn Morris

Symphony No. 4 in B-flat major, Op. 60 and Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op. 67 are orchestral works by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1806 and 1808 respectively. The Fourth is relatively classical in tone with balanced forms and transparent orchestration, while the Fifth is more dramatic and rhythmically driven, built on a short motif that recurs and on wider dynamic contrasts, and both works belong to Beethoven's middle period, sitting between Classical norms and the emergence of Romantic style.
