Symphony No. 1, Movement 4

Beethoven has ended this section with motif 1 leading into theme 1. We can interpret the codetta to include either first and second time ending or just the first time ending, with the second time ending either using motif 1 to lead into the development section, or the second time ending starting the development section. An important structural change takes place in bar 98 where the development section begins. Motif 1 is used in different transpositions between short chordal phrases. Because Beethoven uses diminished sevenths in the chordal phrases, the tonality is ambiguous.

Bar brings a new texture and a new key as well as sharp dynamic contrast. The B b pedal roots the tonality in B b Major. The homophonic texture is accompanied by an arpeggic melody. In bar we see familiar material; a fragment motif 2 can be seen in the violin I part. Motif 1 can also be seen supporting this in the cello part. We also modulate to the dominant of the current key, F Major.

Descending scales are used antiphonally to balance motif I. This scalic passage can also be seen as a shortened inversion of Motif I.

By Bar we see the continuation of scales combined with the introduction of the rhythmic cell from motif 4in bassoons and the full motif 4 in the flute and oboe parts. We then move from F Major towards G Major through the cycle of fifths.

In bar we see another change in texture. The upper winds show an augmented motif 3.

This section is firmly rooted in the tonic minor C Minor. In bar we see the restatement of motif 1 in the violins. The violas and cellos antiphonally balance this.

This is halted in bar with an elaborate cadential pattern in G Minor ending on bar To add further closure to this section in bar the bass line from this cadential pattern is taken up by the winds and harmonised in thirds. The end of this section overlaps with the emergence of the recapitulation. The appearance of motif 1 in the tonic in the violin I is significant because it leads again into theme 1 at bar This is unchanged from the exposition.

Bar brings motif 2. This differs from the exposition however; this is shortened by the cadence that appears in bar but motif 2 appears in the bassoons, which leads into an extension of the motif 2 sequence. We then add the descending scale or possible shorten inversion of motif 1 in bar in violin I, as well as a possible reference to motif 3 with the upper woodwind. In bar we get the familiar trill like phrase we see in bar 54; this arrives earlier than it previously did in the exposition as the transitional section is omitted from the recapitulation.

At this point, we are heading again towards the tonic, C Major. At bar we see the reintroduction of theme 2, and the beginning of the repetition of the second subject group. Theme 2 is, as we would expect in the tonic key of C Major. Theme 2 has been extended to bar Bar brings a repeat of the homophonic texture heard in bar in the tonic key. This is again followed in Bar with the perfect cadences of motif 4 to finish the second subject group firmly in the tonic in case of ambiguity caused by the chromatic movement in bars The codetta is repeated at bar including motif 1 in the violins.

Bar adds double dotted rhythms to build into the cadences at bars and A big imperfect cadence in G minor the tonic minor of the dominant is heard first, followed by an imperfect cadence in the tonic. At bar we see ascending scales implying a shortened motif 1, which is then shown in its entirety in , leading into a repeat of theme 1 beginning bar We are now repeating the section as we did with the exposition, due to the changes in the material Beethoven has chosen to notate the repeat of the section, contrasting the exposition where the material was repeated exactly with the exception of the first and second time endings.

This is because Beethoven repeats only the first subject group; omitting the transitional section, second subject group and codetta. The descending sequence of motif 2 heard in the upbeat to bar 15 is repeated at bar After a brief bar delay motif 2 is then moved to woodwinds as in the exposition. In bar a new cadence is introduced ending the first subject group and introducing the coda.

This concludes the recapitulation, which is where we would expect to end the piece according to strict sonata form procedure, but to add more substantial closure to the significant duration of the symphony a coda is added beginning bar The cadences initially heard establish key and begin to provide the closure we would expect from the piece.

The cadences can be seen as either new material or possibly an implied extension of motif 4.

The flutes in bar are derived from motif 1. The violins I and II, clarinets, bassoons and oboes then take this up. In bar crescendos are used to anticipate the intensity of the final section of the coda. Bar sees the return of motif 1 in full, where it is used up a diatonic third in bar to build into the bar , where homophonic tutti cadences in the tonic key of C major are used to firmly end the piece.

The cadential movement also highlights the decline in harmonic tempo with the final chord repeated in bar and You are commenting using your WordPress.
