About One of the Hypostases of Beethoven’s Epic to the 250th Anniversary of the Composer’s Birth |
A.I. Demchenko
Among the various semantic perspectives of Beethoven’s work, a special place is occupied by what has been called the military epic since the time of ancient literature. The appearance of this type of musical epic was historically associ-ated with the epic of the Napoleonic wars, which covered the whole of Europe. The composer first outlined the contours of the corresponding theme in the First piano concerto. This was followed by the First and Second symphonies, which became direct approaches to the famous Third, where the principles of the military epic were fully embodied. The main layers of her imaginative world are associated with the disclosure of the elements of confrontation: strong-willed pressure, concentration of courage, firmness and determination, pumping tension and thickening drama, boiling waves of powerful energy of overcoming efforts. Other facets of the content of this work: the funeral rite in memory of the fallen, the scherzo as a powerful game of uninhibited life forces and the victorious triumph of the military brotherhood in the final. Among the subsequent echoes of what «Eroica» revealed are the Fourth Symphony and the orchestral composition «Wellington’s victory, or the Battle of Vittoria».
Keywords: Beethoven’s creative work, military epic, evolution to and from the Third symphony.
