Ludwig van Beethoven's Fifth Symphony has the character of an appeal. From the very start, the four-note "fate" motif casts a spell on listeners. The German Beethoven expert Wulf Konold illustrates the ingenious variations of this motif on piano.

The German musicologist Armin Koch provides his analysis.
