1808 : First of the fifth symphony of BeethovenOn December 22, 1808, Beethoven's 5th Symphony is performed for the first time, in Vienna. The concert hall was frozen, the concert began only after a two-hour program, and the orchestra was so bad, that the composer, yet half deaf, stopped in the middle of it, and started the symphony from the beginning again. After unpromising beginnings, the symphony emerged as one of the most significant pieces of music history. During the second World War, in England, its first 4 notes, that mimicked the letter V in Morse code, were used to symbolize the V for Victory. |
