Description: The Symphony No. 7 in A major, Op. 92, is a symphony in four movements composed by Ludwig van Beethoven between 1811 and 1812, while improving his health in the Bohemian spa town of Teplitz. The work is dedicated to Count Moritz von Fries. The second movement in A minor has a tempo marking of Allegretto ("a little lively"), making it slow only in comparison to the other three movements. This movement was encored at the premiere and has remained popular since. Its reliance on the string section makes it a good example of Beethoven's advances in orchestral writing for strings, building on the experimental innovations of Haydn. ℗ 2006 Cavendish Music Library ▶️ More from Beethoven: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLO09Th4dLYVnNa9eaZPu6g5mL16mFsOlk 🔔 Subscribe to The Wicked North for the very best in classical music: youtube.com/c/TheWickedNorth #Beethoven #Symphony7 #Allegretto
