Beethoven Symphony No. 2 - Movement 1 & Ballet Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 36 I. Adagio molto-Allegro con brio Karl Bohm conducting Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra The Music: Beethoven's Second Symphony is one of the last works of Beethoven's so-called "early period." Beethoven composed it in 1801-02 and conducted the first performance on April 5, 1803, at the Theater an der Wien. This first movement begins with a long, slow introduction that Hector Berlioz considered "a masterpiece" in its own right. The introduction is like a grand, majestic overture by itself. What is of particular interest is that at 01:55, the chords you hear are almost identical to the chords you hear during the opening part of the 1st movement of Beethoven's 9th symphony, which came 22 years after the second symphony! The exposition begins at 02:48 with a lovely theme-1 followed by the light bouncy theme-2 that appears at 03:42. After a lengthy development section infused with a delightful mixture that Beethoven creates using parts of the two themes, the themes are heard again during the recapitulation at 07:02.

She worked in the Academy for 45 years. Legendary ballerina Maya Plisetskaya recollects: "A dancer looked and worked differently even after a single rehearsal led by Vaganova! There is no other like her..."
