Symphony No. 6 in F major, Op. 68 ‘Pastoral’
Beethoven provided the movements at this symphony with titles, as well as the work itself; but he also declared that he was concerned with sensation rather than depiction - in fact his
own musical reactions to country Iife, and not what life in the country looks and sounds like. There is in fact some pictorial effect in the Pastoral Symphony: the birdcalls at the end of the
Andante sound Iike birdcalls and not like Beethoven’s reaction to birdsong; and the Storm is perfectly vivid, But the work is not a country diary which can be followed step by step, and so
it is probably best to think about the music as music.
The Pastoral was completed quite quickly, for Beethoven, between 1807 and 1808, as a relaxation from the ardours at the Fifth Symphony. The two symphonies were performed together
at a concert in 1808, and both were dedicated to two at Beethoven's princely friends jointly.
The symphony opens at a relaxed tempo but with bracing thoughts, and the subtitle speaks of the blessed exhilaration that the town-dweller feels on breathing country air’. The music is
more lyrical than dramatic, and the ideas which supplement the easy- going first tune are presented in a conversational, almost obviously not quite casual manner, though they are thoroughly expanded as the movement proceeds. The whole thing sounds what it is, a contrast to the electric drama of the Fifth Symphony.
The broad unhurried pace is maintained in the slow movement which was inspired by the landscape at a riverside. As the movement unfolds expansively, so too the music grows more
sonorous and warmer, with the rich advantage at divided and muted cellos. When the famous birdcalls arrive, they are neatly dovetailed into a longer phrase, and the cuckoo call is echoed
unobtrusively in the second half at the phrase by bassoons. The scherzo has the subtitle, ‘High-spirited reunion at country Folk’; it is mercurial and yet sturdy in mood, not at all unlike the scherzo part at the corresponding movement in the Seventh Symphony, Beethoven comes near to tone-painting in the trio section, where it is easy to hear the stamping of hob-nailed boots, but the inspiration has undergone a transformation into musical poetry, and it is more exact to say that the music is danceable, rather than literally danced. Beethoven was in the habit of enlarging his scherzo form by playing the trio section twice, but this time the second trio is interrupted by a pattering figure that heralds the Storm section, for which Beethoven augmented his orchestra with a piccolo, trombones and, for the first time in this symphony, the
drums. When the storm has passed, a sigh of relief from the oboe leads to C major and the finale. And this unorthodox key shows that the movement had actually begun with the Storm in F minor, which is perfectly proper key for the introduction to an F major movement. The descriptive part of the symphony here is the excuse for a reintroduction of the eloquent formal device that Beethoven was simultaneously practising in the Fifth Symphony - an introduction to the finale that sounds like a bridge passage though it isn’t one. The Allegro port of the finale is built on a cowcall, and is headed ‘Shepherds Hymn‘. Like the first movement it deliberately avoids drama and obvious symphonic effect, though the climax is overwhelming,
’Egmont' Overture, Op. 84
After Fidelio, Egmont is Beethoven's most substantial dramatic score. As with the third Leonora overture, so the overture to Egmont is a grand tone poem summing up the emotional content
of the drama. Egmont, Prince of Gaure, saved Flanders from the French invasion, at a time in the sixteenth century when the Netherlands were under Spanish rule. He protested against the
decision to make Flanders a Spanish dependency and was arrested and condemned For treason through the machinations of the Duke of Alba, his enemy and the military governor of Flanders. In the overture we hear contrasted moods that express at once the conflict of patriotism and love, and of harsh Spain and suffering Flanders; this is a completely satisfying and convincing ambivalence that is music's special property.

I was 21 in 1977, and I lost my way. In the day room of the clinic was an old record player with headphones. I despondently picked this record from the stack and put it on. Somehow this music put me back on the pwhiath to sanity. Whenever I feel depressed or the whole world seems to be turning into a bleak hopeless place...I listen to this. The whole way through. It never fails to help me get back in touch with the good in the world, the beauty of Nature. I'm certain many feel thus way.

I've loved the Pastorale for at least the past 45 years. If you need a symphonic Beethoven fix, though, and you don't have 45 minutes to invest in it, you can't do better than the Egmont Overture. Brief and beautiful. I have it on my alarm play list, so I get to wake up to it every couple months. WAY better than a snooze button.
BEETHOVEN...IMMORTAL MASTER...
If this isn't peace and quiet, I don't know what is. We live in a very unpredictable world that is enough to make you go crazy sometimes. But every time this masterful piece plays, it's like the whole world is a wholesome, better place to be in and remember the finer things that are priceless: tranquility, harmony, love. Thank you for your compositions, Mr. Ludwig van Beethoven! ❤️🥰
I love his music.
There are a lot of fantastic symphonies to choose from. This one is the most unique though. Perhaps not the best, the most complex, the grandest, but the most special due its theme. There is nothing like driving on a beautiful country road and listen to the first movement. Or hiking in the woods along a creek and listen to the second movement. The symphony was really designed to be played outdoor, not in a concert hall.
My Dad loved this classic among many other classical pieces..Miss u Dad....Choking up here every time I hear the Pastorale
What’s most inspiring to me (second to the work itself) is that KZread permitted a full, uninterrupted listening. Not one advertisement. A revelation…

I grew up in the 50s-70s. My mother played pretty much nothing but classical music from the time I was born (and before, actually). This was her favorite symphony, and she literally wore out several albums playing it. I did not realize that it was one of her ways to combat depression & frustration until I was in my late teens. It was a beautiful gift that she gave me, and I listen to it frequently, oddly enough, also when I am feeling down. It never fails to lift me up and get me going again. Thank you for making this available to a wider audience. It is an invaluable device and experience, and to any who are hearing this for the first time, congratulations. This is one of the premier symphonic experiences that you can have.

Most know classical composer Ludwig van Beethoven struggled with deafness - but many don’t realise how much of a struggle it was. Beyond composing without hearing a note, Beethoven grappled with living in the 1800s when few understood deafness, hindering his ability to communicate, work as a musician and even find a place to live. How he dealt with this deafness is one of the great stories of humanity, not just of music. He started going deaf in his mid-20s and profoundly deaf by 45. A common question is how Beethoven continued composing without his hearing, but this wasn’t too difficult. Music is a language, with rules. Knowing the rules of how music is made, he could sit at his desk and compose a piece of music without hearing it. What a tragedy for such a genius.

My Mom had an oil of Nieuschenwenstein Castle (King Ludwig). (Don't need to correct me, I like the fantasy.) I redid her house as though looking at Bavaria from inside the castle (with the painting in back). And a floor of mirrors with a cross of mirrors in the middle (all in the lower recess). Topographic Oceans.
Pure musical genius…
I grew up with rock music, but when I was 21, I worked on oil rigs in the Sahara, and on one rig there was a record player in the recreation cabin. And this symphony was one of the records! I decided to give it a listen. To say that I was blown away would be a massive understatement. Nowadays, I still listen to rock, but I also listen to Beethoven. All his symphonies, although this one remains my favourite.

Beethoven's 6th Pastoral symphony should be required listening for all human beings, regardless of background or upbringing. God bless you.

I cannot hear the first movement of this symphony without seeing the sequence in the film Soylent Green where the Edward G. Robinson character submits himself to the voluntary de-population programme. He is administered drugs to make his death painless and wheeled into a large room where he watches images of what the world looked like before humanity and overpopulation destroyed it all. He watches various scenes of Nature as Symphony No. 6 plays and weeps at lost beauty. It is a very moving scene. Sadly this was Robinson 's very last film. It was an outstanding performance.

My mother had a small bust of Beethoven and appreciated this greatly. So do I.
I had my first boyfriend when I went overseas for university. I felt so much freedom (from parents, family, and old life) and elation with this romantic experience. One day we were relaxing in his room, and the fifth movement of this symphony sprung up in my head. I played it using my old Nokia phone and ear buds. The music completely and perfectly reflected the phenomenal elation that I felt in that moment. It was a magical experience. We parted a few months later when uni exchange finished. It was a beautiful first romance.

First off, Beethoven is a godsend. This is my favorite symphony from his work. I've heard different versions of the 6th on KZread music but so far this is the best one I've heard. His 6th reminds me of watching Fantasia in theaters in downtown Fort Worth as a boy in the late 80's.
His music is divinity itself. His Pastorale is his best. It is the highest of all music, but then, there are other classics that can match it, but in different ways.

You are so lucky. My parents don't care about classical music, and I started to discover it by myself, but I am 21 already, I wish I listen to classical music earlier :(

My father used to put the record player with this, also sometimes with the Smetana's Moldau, on Sunday mornings while still in bed.
Music almost 200 years old! Timeless! And forever beautiful! can't even listen to today's hip-hop rap crap techno can't wait for the Fad to be over
There is just not anything more beautiful than this. Said it sixty years ago, saying it now.

It's a traditiuon for me that Sunday morning is "Pastorale" Time...!!! It works wonders...!!!
A favourite.
Growing up first generation Canadian in a german household it was standard to have heard Beethoven more than once. I disliked it as I was young and I wanted rock and roll. Then as I grew I realized my parents were right Beethoven was a genius. This Symphony was their all time favorite. They had seen it performed live and had numerous copies. They are both gone now but it too has become my favorite. I dont have anyone to enjoy this Symphony but when I listen I always remeber the days it was played. Mom in a god awful moomoo smoking like a chimney and enjoying wine and my father laid back on his lazy boy, Tilley Hat on with a shot of rye sitting on his beer belly. Both completely content. Thanks Ludwig, even in death you bring joy and a smile

Nice image of your parents. I met a few of this type when I was growing up...Sitting on bean bags in the 1970s playing LPs of all kinds through floor speakers :-)

It's now a popular music in Cell To Singularly
I am waiting to read from someone who is brought to his knees in worship! The worship of God! He Alone Who makes everything possible in life! This Pastorale is all about the worship of God! It brings me to my knees in worship! I appreciate the extended play greatly. Thank you for your goodness.

The pastorale is not about god, it's about nature, fields, storms, weather and rural life. It's in the title, pastorale.

In this performance, all is far superior splendor
My favorite Beethoven overture.
I'm 33, I've had this on vinyl for about 12 years and I never get tired of it. Hands down one of my top 3 recordings and I'm a consumer of all music
What a great masterpiece of music
No words. With the Pastorale Beethoven leads us to the dizzying heights of the genius and the soul of man
Every time I listen to Beethoven’s 6th Symphony ‘The Pastoral ‘ I’m in raptures since my childhood I’ve loved this symphony and especially now a walk in the countryside beside the babbling brook what could be better to beat the doom and gloom we’re going through in 2020. We’ll Done Beethoven for hopefully getting us through a tough time.
U tube should have GOAT button for this.
