[@staalman1226]

@@johntravena119What?!? Dramatic structure and last movement conventions aside for his other symphonies, MOST of *this* symphony is upbeat. If anything, the second movement is more "out-of-place", but I do think it adds sombreness and slowness the rest of it lacks.

[@FranciscoCunha2004]

This is exceptional playing... the voicing in the second movement is perfect.

[@danwolfe9087]

And the voicing in the third movement follows in kind... mind boggling.

[@matmm75006]

Katsaris is a genius !

[@brent3522]

The 2nd movement is such an amazing and fun piece to practice voicing and single-hand polyrhythms, especially with the right hand.

[@militaryandemergencyservic3286]

as a student of beethoven's line I say this is his best symphony... certainly it's my favourite.

[@ftnhungpiano]

Tip for playing the one-handed 3 against 4 polyrhythm in the second movement: play the second 16th note as a acciaccatura before the second triplet, the third 16th note right between the middle of the 2nd and 3rd triplets, and hit the last 16th note lightly right after hitting the last triplet.

[@applejuices]

You don't play those chords and the melody with the left hand. You only play the bass chords with your left hand. The melody and the accompanying arpeggiated chords are played with the right hand.

[@ftnhungpiano]

The melody is played with the right thumb. As for the notorious one-hand 3 against 4 polyrhythms, I play the second 16th note as a acciaccatura before the second triplet, the third 16th note right during the middle of the 2nd and 3rd triplets, and the last 16th note is played lightly right after I hit the last triplet.

Masterful performance! Is is blasphemous to feel the symphony is too indulgent for its own good. Its duration could express its content in half the time it took Beethoven and be better for it. I would not voice that opinion about any other of the master's symphonies.

[@klop4228]

It's a fair opinion to have, but not one I share at all. Maybe the Scherzo could stand not to repeat itself and the trio that extra time, but honestly I don't know what else one would - or could - cut.

I am thinking of the high speed we live and expect today. My younger students have no reverence for a work composed centuries ago. Either does the general public. Few can stay still to listen anymore. Your intelligent response was welcomed.

@@stevehinnenkamp5625 I don't know what the solugion for a lack of attention is, regarding music, but I'd say cutting it up so that it no longer makes sense structurally probably isn't the solution lol.

[@lordlouckster2315]

Actually, I like the out of tune.

[@Keldor314]

It sounds like a historic tuning to me. Modern equal temperament wasn't a thing until around the late 19th to early 20th century (And no, Bach's well tempered was not equal temperament either, it was just a departure from meantone temperaments from before). Before that, tunings went toward pure thirds for chords with less accidentals, and thus less pure for chords with more accidentals. The result is that different keys actually sounded different, and composers like Beethoven chose keys to enhance the color of a piece - keys like C were tranquil, keys like D lively (Incidentally, the key of e-minor is one where the character changed greatly between meantone and well tempered), and keys with a lot of accidentals were full of tension.

​@@nickjgunning in terms of difficulty

[@nickjgunning]

Glad you made that clear. Liszt's intention, though not stated in the same words, was to democratise serious music. He trained hundreds of pianists who would then do solo recitals including these symphonies. Bear in mind that in his day, ordinary people might hear a Beethoven symphony once in a lifetime- but they could hear the transcriptions often even in towns that didn't have a symphony orchestra. Liszt died a couple of years before even the most primitive of recording media was available.
