Allegro con brio (E-flat major) 14:59 2. Marcia funebre. Adagio assai (C minor) 31:16 3. Scherzo. Allegro vivace - Trio (E-flat major) 37:20 4. Allegro molto (E-flat major) Beethoven completed this work in 1804; it was introduced privately in Vienna, chez Prince Lobkowitz, to whom it is dedicated. Beethoven also conducted the public premiere on April 7, 1805, in the Theater-an-der-Wien. Despite everything written to the contrary, the Sinfonia eroica was never a “portrait“ of Napoleon Bonaparte, although Beethoven did plan to dedicate it to the charismatic Corsican “First Consul of France.“ He went into a rage, however, when a pupil, Ferdinand Ries, brought news in May 1804 that Napoleon had crowned himself Emperor. According to Ries, Beethoven shouted that the General was only “an ordinary human being, [and] went to the table, took hold of the title page, tore it in two, and threw it on the floor.“ A different story posits that Beethoven erased the Napoleonic dedication from a copy made in August 1804 and entitled Sinfonia grande. In fact, Sinfonia eroica did not appear as the work’s title until publication in 1806. What Beethoven never told Ries was that Prince Lobkowitz, before May 1804, had proffered a handsome fee in exchange for the dedication, which Napoleon’s subsequent arrogance made possible. Or that Beethoven realized the advantage in bringing with him a Sinfonia Bonaparte when a Parisian trip was proposed later on (but never materialized). It was conductor Arturo Toscanini who put everything into perspective 50-odd years ago: “Some say Napoleon, some say Hitler, some say Mussolini; for me it is Allegro con brio.“ The sheer length of the Eroica’s first movement was revolutionary — an opening movement of 691 measures, plus an exposition repeat of 151 measures. No less revolutionary was Beethoven’s jarring C sharp at the end of a main theme in E flat major — indeed it is an E flat arpeggio. Not until the recapitulation does that C sharp become D flat enharmonically. It is in this movement that the long-range harmonic connections explored over the course of the Romantic era have their real start; the movement is heroic mainly in the vastness of its reach. A “Funeral March“ slow movement was hardly revolutionary, but the span of his C minor slow movement, in rondo form, was unprecedented, and so was its range of emotions from outright grief to C major solace. Although “hunt“ music in the third-movement Trio may have startled the Eroica’s first audience after funerary tragedy on an unprecedented scale, hunting music in Beethoven’s time was even more modish than funeral marches. However, he used it for more than mere surprise in the midst of an onrushing and sometimes raucous scherzo (thereby banishing minuets and Ländlers until the symphonies of Bruckner and Mahler). Psychologically he needed sunshine after so much weighty, solemn music. He was also setting up a racy finale — a set of variations including a fugue that detractors ever since have called a falling-off of inspiration. This kind of argument ignores, however, not only what preceded the Eroica historically — Bach’s Goldberg Variations for example — but also Beethoven’s own ennoblement of the form. He had already used the legato second theme of his Eroica finale in The Creatures of Prometheus (ballet music of 1800), in an 1802 Contredanse, and as the subject of 15 keyboard variations that same year (Op. 35), subtitled Eroica once the symphony had been published. A never-ending wonder is the viability of this subject after so much use. Beethoven’s range of invention in the symphonic finale of 1804 — from hymnody to humor, from fugue to dance, culminating in a Presto coda — successfully freed the listener from the gripping, even shocking drama that has stalked his first and second movements.
