  • Seedsbeethoven
    seedsbeethoven Although Beethoven was a contemporary of Haydn, Mozart and Goethe, he distanced himself from these models very early on and developed an instantly recognizable style, which, thanks to the prodigious ease with which he handled melodic material and rhythmic cells, guaranteed that he would hold a unique position in the pantheon of classical music. Listen again carefully to the first movement of his incompa- rable Symphony No. 5, let images take over when hearing his “Pastoral” or his “Eroica”, discover the power of his “Hammerklavier” and appreciate his delicacy in the piano trios. You will then understand why Beethoven wrote that “music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.” Contemporain de Haydn, Mozart et Goethe, Beethoven s’affranchira pourtant très tôt des modèles et développera un style reconnaissable entre tous et qui, grâce à la prodigieuse aisance avec laquelle il manipule matériau mélodique et cellules rythmiques, lui garantit une place unique au panthéon musical classique. Réécoutez attentivement le premier mouvement de son incontournable Cinquième Symphonie, laissez les images vous envahir au son de sa « Pastorale » ou de son « Héroïque », découvrez la puissance de son « Hammerklavier » et appréciez sa subtilité dans ses trios avec piano. Vous comprendrez alors pourquoi Beethoven a écrit : « la musique est une révélation plus haute que toute sagesse et toute philosophie. » seeds • beethoven | p.2 Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) Symphony No. 5 Piano Trio in C Minor / en do mineur Allegro con brio Finale (Prestissimo) 6:51 Tafelmusik, Bruno Weil & Jeanne Lamon 7:43 Gryphon Trio Egmont Symphony No. 6 "Pastoral" / « Pastorale » Overture Allegro 7:13 Orchestre Métropolitain, 5:12 Orchestre de la francophonie canadienne, Joseph Rescigno Jean-Philippe Tremblay Piano Concerto No.
