English: w:Beethoven, Ludwig van (1800-1802) "Symphony No. 2, D major, Op. 36", 2nd movement - Larghetto (A major). Performed by the Tsumugi Orchestra conducted by Takashi Inoue on 19 Sep 2011 at the Fukuoka City West Public Hall.
Like Mozart's, Beethoven's musical talent was recognized at a young age, [3] and these three piano sonatas give an early glimpse of the composer's abilities, as well as his boldness. Beethoven was writing in a form usually attempted by older, more mature composers, [ 4 ] as the sonata was a cornerstone of Classical piano literature.
This movement, Larghetto, is in the dominant key of A major and is one of Beethoven's longest symphonic slow movements. There are clear indications of the influence of folk music and the pastoral, presaging his Symphony No. 6 ("Pastoral"). The movement, like the first, is in sonata form.
Beethoven uses Mozart's favourite rondo form for this movement (ABACBA). The absence of the A theme in between the C and second B is a surprise and adds interest by reducing the repetition of the A theme. Intro, F minor (bars 1–9) (Larghetto expressivo)
The Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 61, was written by Ludwig van Beethoven in 1806. Its first performance by Franz Clement was unsuccessful and for some decades the work languished in obscurity, until revived in 1844 by the then 12-year-old violinist Joseph Joachim with the orchestra of the London Philharmonic Society conducted by Felix Mendelssohn.
The quartet's third movement is a lighter menuetto which provides the motif that is subsequently turned upside down for the last movement, a fugal allegro molto that begins with the viola and adds the second violin, cello and first violin in that order. The movement is in alla breve time and is almost a perpetuum mobile in quavers.
The first movement has a piano part using mainly scale ideas at a fast tempo. The slow second movement is similar in form, with common arpeggiation and ornamenting. The last movement has a jolly melody for the main theme, played very fast, again based on scales. Beethoven most likely composed this concerto in 1784, when he was still in Bonn. [1]
