Symphony No. 4 (Beethoven) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Symphony No. 4 (Beethoven)
The Symphony No. 4 in B-flat major, Op. 60, is a symphony in four movements composed by Ludwig van Beethoven in the summer of 1806.〔''Symphony No. 6 in F Major'', Op. 68 ''Pastorale'' (Schott Music), ed. Max Unger, p. vi〕 It was premièred in March 1807 at a private concert of the home of Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz.〔Steinberg, Michael. ''The Symphony: A Listeners Guide''. pp. 19-24. Oxford University Press, 1995.〕 ==Background==
The work was dedicated to Count Franz von Oppersdorff, a relative of Beethoven's patron, Prince Lichnowsky. The Count met Beethoven when he traveled to Lichnowsky's summer home where Beethoven was staying. Von Oppersdorff listened to Beethoven's Symphony No. 2 in D Major, and liked it so much that he offered a great amount of money for Beethoven to compose a new symphony for him. Beethoven undertook the new work during the summer of 1806 and completed it in roughly a month, while working on the Fourth Piano Concerto and revising his opera ''Fidelio'', then still known as ''Leonore''. The dedication was made to "the Silesian nobleman Count Franz von Oppersdorf".〔Paul Netl (1976) ''Beethoven Handbook''. New York: Frederick Ungar Publishing Co., p. 262〕 Hector Berlioz was so enamoured of the symphony's 2nd movement that he claimed it was the work of the Archangel Michael, and not that of a human.
