- Beethoven & the development of the symphony
- Symphony No. 5
- Introduction of the Scherzo and Trio rather than the traditional Minuet and Trio in movement 3
- Movement 3 - Movement 4. Whereas beforehand the movements were played separately, Beethoven has movement 3 move swiftly into movement 4 with no pause or break.
- Symphony No. 6 'Pastoral'
- In a traditional 'Classical' symphony there are four movements, however, Beethoven has five movements
- Beethoven uses the instruments to imitate birds in his music, which was relatively new. However, the idea was also apparent in Verdi's 'Spring' from 'The Four Seasons'
- Symphony no. 9
- The most notable factor that was truly different was the use of a new instrument... the voice! In his fourth movement, more commonly known as 'Ode to Joy' a choir is also used with a tenor primarily having the solo
- Symphony No. 5
