Symphonies no. 5 & no. 7

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & The Cleveland Orchestra & Christoph von Dohnányi

Symphonies No. 5 and No. 7 are orchestral works by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1808 and 1812 respectively. They sit in Beethoven's middle-period output and exemplify the transition from Classical to Romantic styles, combining rigorous motivic development, pronounced rhythmic drive, wide-ranging dynamics and expanded orchestral colour that influenced subsequent symphonic composition.
