Description
These works display everything we love about Beethoven in full colour; drama and passion interspersed with piercing sorrow and soulful reconciliation, expressed within the parameters of the classical period. How Beethoven extended the medium of music as a tool to express what cannot be said with words is already palpable, even in the opus 3 and 8 which are both in the form of Serenades; music for entertainment! Beethoven himself declared his opus 9 as his finest compositions at the time of their publication. They are in every sense equal to his String Quartets; awe inspiring music that transports the listener to a world of magic and draws out emotions from the depth of our being.
