Symphony No. 1 in C major Op. 21

Symphony No. 1 in C major, Op. 21 is a symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1799–1800 and first performed in 1800. Rooted in Classical-era forms and orchestration, the work features bold harmonic shifts, rhythmic vitality and varied orchestral colour, and it marks Beethoven's emergence as a symphonist bridging the traditions of Haydn and Mozart with innovations that would characterise his later works.
