About this arrangement

Orchestra - Grade 3 SKU: AP.24974 Second Movement for Orchestra. Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Vernon Leidig. Full Orchestra; Masterworks; Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. Highland/Etling Full Orchestra. Classical; Masterwork Arrangement; Romantic. Score and Part(s). 178 pages. Duration 7:38. Highland/Etling #00-24974. Published by Highland/Etling (AP.24974). UPC: 038081282282. English.A great classic for intermediate-level orchestra! Ludwig van Beethoven first performed the Symphony No. 1 in C Major, Op. 21 at the Royal Imperial Theater in Vienna on April 2, 1800. The Second Movement is loosely reminiscent of the slow movement of Mozart's Symphony No. 40 in G Minor. But, to use the term Mozartian is to judge the work superficially. The movement begins to stir restlessly as it progresses. It is one of Beethoven's most singable and lyrical movements. (7:38).
