It is one of the most popular symphonies ever: Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major, Op. 55, also called Eroica. Here it is performed by the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Michael Boder at the Beethovenfest Bonn 2021 at the World Conference Center Bonn (WCCB).
(00:00) Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major, Op. 55, Eroica
(00:36) I. Allegro con brio
(17:38) II. Marcia funebre (Adagio assai)
(30:18) III. Scherzo (Allegro vivace)
(36:03) IV. Finale: Allegro molto - Poco andante – Presto
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) began planning his Symphony No. 3 in the fall of 1802, composing most of it in 1803, and probably not completing it until early 1804. The private premiere happened in the same year. The first public performance took place on April 7, 1805 and was conducted by Beethoven himself.
Because of the epithet ‘Eroica’ (the Heroic one), Beethoven’s third symphony is commonly linked to Napoleon. However, Beethoven’s relationship to Napoleon was rather ambivalent: on the one hand, he was fascinated by Napoleon’s ideals, but at the same time he was deeply repelled by the fact that he had proclaimed himself emperor. Later, however, Beethoven is said to have revered Napoleon. His ambivalent attitude is also evidenced by the addition of the words “written on Bonaparte” to the copy of the score, which he initially erased, but later added in again.
It is also unknown, however, who the hero could be to whom Beethoven dedicated the Eroica with the words “Sinfonia Eroica composta per celebrare la morte d’un Eroe”. Researchers doubt that he could have meant Napoleon. Whatever the case, Beethoven dedicated his third symphony to a hero whose funeral he commemorates in the second movement with a brilliant funeral march and who he resurrects triumphantly at the end of the fourth movement. Perhaps it is precisely this range of emotions, from serious, deepest mourning to joyfully enthusiastic exaltation that makes Beethoven’s Eroica so appealing.

Beethoven: Symphony No. 1 | Michael Boder and the ORF Vienna Radio Symph...
It marks the beginning of his symphonic work: Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 in C major, Op. 21. Here, it’s performed at the Beethovenfest Bonn 2021 by the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Michael Boder in the World Conference Center Bonn (WCCB).
(00:00) I. Adagio molto – Allegro con brio
(09:17) II. Andante cantabile con moto
(16:18) III. Menuetto: Allegro moto e vivace
(19:50) IV. Adagio – Allegro molto e vivace
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) is thought to have sketched out his first themes for the symphony in 1794, elaborating upon them predominantly in 1799, with the premiere held in Vienna on April 2, 1800. The Symphony No. 1 – conducted by Beethoven himself – was met with public favor from the off, and remains to this day one of Beethoven's most popular symphonies.
This may owe itself in no small part to the fact that Beethoven's first symphony is still formally entirely in the style of Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s classical symphonies. One can also already tell from the outset, however, that Beethoven will take his own symphonic work in new directions. Indeed, the very first chord itself is a novelty; Beethoven begins the symphony not in the key of C major, but with a dissonant seventh chord, which hangs in the air like a question mark, only finding its resolution after the unhurried introduction. Of the first movement, the main theme alone is in C major – the ‘home’ key of the symphony. Its march-like rhythm is reminiscent of the rousing motifs of French, revolutionary music. The first movement’s entirely dance-like, burgeoning character becomes emblematic of the entire symphony.

En vano últimos esfuerzos para evitar una guerra en Ucrania
Francotiradores rusos están listos para actuar cerca de la frontera con Ucrania. Desde hace semanas, tropas rusas se concentran junto a la frontera, y la tensión entre ambos países aumenta. En los últimos días se han intensificado los esfuerzos diplomáticos de Estados Unidos, la OTAN y la Unión Europea para evitar una guerra, pero hasta ahora todo ha sido en vano. El Kremlin asegura actuar en defensa propia y exige garantías de que la OTAN no seguirá extendiendo hacia el Este su alianza militar. Unas exigencias que Occidente no está dispuesto a aceptar, porque afirma que es Ucrania la que debe decidir su destino.
