Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) - Symphony No. 5, Op. 67 (1st movement)


Hi passengers !
Musicologie presents tonight Symphonie No. 5 to celebrate Ludwig van Beethoven baptised 17 December 1770 – burried 26 March 1827) was a German composer and pianist. A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in Western art music, he remains one of the most famous and influential of all composers. His best known compositions include 9 symphonies, 5 concertos for piano, 32 piano sonatas, and 16 string quartets. 
He also composed other chamber music, choral works (including the celebrated Missa Solemnis), and songs. Born in Bonn, then the capital of the Electorate of Cologne and part of the Holy Roman Empire, Beethoven displayed his musical talents at an early age and was taught by his father Johann van Beethoven and Christian Gottlob Neefe. 
During his first 22 years in Bonn, Beethoven intended to study with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and befriended Joseph Haydn. Beethoven moved to Vienna in 1792 and began studying with Haydn, quickly gaining a reputation as a virtuoso pianist. He lived in Vienna until his death. 
In about 1800 his hearing began to deteriorate, and by the last decade of his life he was almost totally deaf. He gave up conducting and performing in public but continued to compose; many of his most admired works come from this period.

Oi passagiers !
Prosuming van deze video van Simple Minds geuploaded op YouTube in Oktober 3, 2010 door Dexbam.
Titel : The American (Dortmund, Juni 24, 1984) - Live, High Quality.
De groep Simple Minds werd in 1977, aanvankelijk onder de naam Johnnie & the Self-Abusers, opgericht door Charlie Burchill, Jim Kerr, Brian McGee en Tony Donald. 
Hun vroege muziek, met o.a. invloeden van David Bowie en Magazine, vond erkenning binnen de newwavestroming. De eerste singles werden echter geen succes. De groep schoof op in de richting van de commerciële popmuziek.
