Today I have a look at Beethoven's 5th symphony opening bars, to see what he wrote and why it's so open to many different interpretations. I'll discuss the tempo, what's the deal with the fermatas and what conducting challenges there are, and for this I will use versions from Carlos Kleiber, Claudio Abbado, Herbert von Karajan, Pierre Boulez, Bruno Walter and John Eliot Gardiner.
