Beethoven's symphonies

The five best symphonies by Beethoven
Symphony #1
Beethoven's symphony was in c-major. Beethoven dedicated his song to Baron Gottfried Van Swieten. He published it in 1801 and took place on April 2 1802.
The symphony is clearly indebted to Beethoven's predecessors, particularly his teacher Joseph Haydn as well as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, but nonetheless has characteristics that mark it uniquely as Beethoven's work, notably the frequent use of sforzandi and the prominent, more independent use of wind instruments. Sketches for the finale are found among the exercises Beethoven wrote while studying counterpoint under Johann Georg Albrechtsberger in the spring of 1787.
