The symphony has a traditional, four-movement ...

The symphony is widely assumed to have been a student assignment, written toward the end of Bizet's nine years of study at the Conservatoire de Paris.

The most substantial movement in the symphony, the finale is in sonata rondo form with a fast tempo. [15] The metronome marking supplied by Beethoven himself is whole note = 84.
