Few
weeks back, I told you about a Parsee friend of mine from Mumbai who
introduced me to western classical music and how he had given me
names of two greatest western classical musical compositions
according to him.
The
first one as I had told you was the Blue Danube by Strauss. Here the
second composition. It is easy to guess, I suppose. I would give you
a clue. The BBC used the four-note motif to introduce its radio news
broadcasts because "short-short-short-long" spells the
letter "V" in Morse code.
Symphony
No. 5 in C minor, is a symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven. It is the
fifth of his nine symphonies. It was written between 1804 and 1808.
This symphony is one of the most popular and well-known works of
classical music.
Enjoy!
