Beethoven 5th Symphony


The first four notes are unforgettable as Beethoven is wailing at the increased deafness but also a hidden expression of the manhood, the French revolution and radicalism of the time.


An enlightened system of governance based on political freedom, good spirit embodied into disciplines of Philosophy, Literature Art and the Theater.


But as he progresses to the second movement there is an extraordinary expression of the human capacity. Incredible beauty and a breadth of enticing view. A foretaste movement


followed by this horn, slow. Solo, fairly in deeper thoughts, soft and suggestive toward perfection. Humanity is on the match encountered with fewer diversion But the outpouring realisation sets in and Beethoven here gives a heads up, fluid convincing not too expressive but forward.


And as the fourth movement sets in Beethoven is revolutionary, romantic and radical. The prelude to the match crescendo is ominous and subversive, but the liberty of the man is realised. Beethoven is individually triumphant and exhilarating.


“What you are, you are by accident of birth; what I am, I am by myself. There are and will be a thousand princes; there is only one Beethoven.”

Wild Geese Hovering Over the Sand

a goose in flight


"bearing a message of love from afar"


Almost sensuous, the honking notes and the lyre quietly disappears-in hence at its introduction and when it makes its round it is revealing, cohesive, unsure but sweet. The lyre continue to appeal to the inner encouraging you to a smooth fore and toward an acceptance.


The form takes on originality to form a visible shape yearning close and the friendship ensuing is almost undeniable. With a conclusive smile the wood and string conversate on a pace there is a feeling of a story narrated. A love story takes form.


Melodious and smooth in tune, the music piece portrays a flock of wild geese hovering in the sky before alighting/landing on the sandbank.
