Симфония № 6 Бетховена впервые была исполнена в 1808 году в Театре ан дер Вин в тот же день и в том же месте, что и Пятая. Обе работы родились одновременно в сознании композитора, и мы находим первые наброски Шестой рядом с набросками Пятой и «Героической» симфонии в записной книжке 1803 года! Точки соприкосновения многочисленны, особенно в теме бури в четвёртой части. Эта «Пасторальная» симфония описывает прогулку Бетховена по сельской местности и чувства мира и радости, которые следуют за ней. Очаровательный характер «Пасторальной» симфонии Бетховена передаёт слушателю чувство единения с природой, и Берлиоз в своём Критическом исследовании симфоний Бетховена (1844) писал об этом: «Автор, несомненно, создал этот восхитительный адажио [sic!], лёжа на траве, глядя в небо, слушая ветер, очарованный тысячей и одним отражением звука и света, наблюдая и слушая одновременно за маленькими белыми волнами, искрящимися в потоке, разбивающемся с лёгким шумом о гальку берега; это восхитительно!»

“I feel truly happy when I walk in the woods, among the trees, flowers, and rocks. Nobody loves the countryside as much as I do. Here, deafness no longer worries me” wrote Ludwig van Beethoven when he composed the Symphony No. 6. The five movements of this symphony perfectly express the composer’s state of mind, relieved by this sense of calm that he found in nature: I. Allegro ma non troppo, II. Andante molto mosso, III. Allegro, IV. Allegretto, which describe his entire emotional journey. As the composer himself wrote, the Symphony No. 6 is “more an expression of emotion than a descriptive painting,” which marks the beginning of a new composition approach, the “music with an inner life.” Go for a walk through an exquisite sonorous landscape on medici.tv, whenever and wherever you like!
