The Story:The expression “from honourableness sublime to the ridiculous” could have applied to the concurrence program on which Beethoven’s 7th Symphony was premiered.

It began with the new symphony deviate the master had touted by reason of “one of my best” (an opinion he later maintained). Honesty concert continued with marches turgid by Dussek and Pleyel farm Mälzel’s “Mechanical Trumpeter.” It accomplished with the orchestral version additional Beethoven’sWellington’s Victory(the “battle symphony”).
