Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphony no. 2 D major op. 36
Robert Schumann once said that “when a German speaks of symphonies, he is speaking of Beethoven”. With his nine symphonies, Beethoven set a standard against which all subsequent composers measured themselves. Yet Beethoven initially oriented himself on the great masters Haydn and Mozart. Thus his Second Symphony in D major op. 36 of 1800–02 stands between the tradition of these masters and his own later innovations. For study purposes, G. Henle here presents the Second Symphony in a small format score. It follows the musical text of the Beethoven Complete Edition. The specialist press wrote: “Quite apart from the critical merits of this edition ... it is a pleasure to read these study scores owing to the brilliant typography and the generous, yet clearly laid-out format”.

About the Composer

Ludwig van Beethoven
No composer has had as profound and sustained an influence on immediately following generations to the present day as Beethoven. His instrumental music, especially his symphonies, served as touchstones for symphonic composition throughout the nineteenth century. The extraordinarily high standard of his music and his relative independence as a freelance composer have led to his being characterized as the greatest composer of all time.
