Symphony no. 3 “Eroica”

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest & Eugen Jochum

Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major, Op. 55, 'Eroica' is a symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1804. The work expanded the scale and expressive range of the symphony with heroic motifs, dramatic harmonic and rhythmic contrasts, extended developmental passages and a substantial slow movement functioning as a funeral march, marking a turning point from his earlier classical style toward the broader, more assertive scope of his middle-period compositions.
