Romantic.

The answer given doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of the Symphony's complexity. It is both Classical and Romantic. It maintains some of the Classical disciplines that dictate how one may compose a symphony, but it also abandons some of these disciplines and pushes the boundaries greatly on the Classical Style and intent so that Beethoven is better able to express his innermost feelings.

The 5th symphony was made 1804 it's debut in 1808 which is in the romantic era but it is Classical Music.

That debut is one of the most outsdanding debut in classical history. December 22, 1808 was colder than usual. There was no heating. The concert went for more than four hours.

This symphony did not move classical style to romantic. It's a process that many think started with Beethoven's symphony no.3.

What best describes the psychological progression of Symphony No 5 in C Minor?

i'm no expert but the fith symphony is quite political and its the first symphony to weave together the four movements in a clear and coherent manner. having said that i dont believe this symphony is the turning point in Beethovens music, himself or the classical repotoir. i believe it started earlier. but i suppose psychologically it is an early advancement to the 9th symphony and thereafter the birth of the Romantic period. the fith symphony provides the blurring lines and window from the classical period to the rromantic

What is classical and what is romantic in Beethoven's Fifth Symphony?

1. The forms in movements 1, 2, and 4: the first movement is in sonata form, the second is a theme and variations, and the fourth is again in sonata form. The Symphony is clearly Romantic in style and has a Romantic theme. The form in the third movement is scherzo-trio, which is a Romantic innovation derived from the minuet-trio that is commonly associated with the Classical period. Also, there are sudden changes in tempo and mood within each movement. I would not call this a Classical symphony. It sounds too far different than one by Haydn or Mozart.


What characteristics of Beethoven's music bridge the gap between the Classical and Romantic eras?

There are many ways in which Beethoven can be seen as both a classical and romantic composer. He is seen as classical in many respects. A quote from Charles Rosen, The Classical style reads "Beethoven enlarged the limits of the classical style beyond the previous conceptions, but never changed its essential structure or abandoned it, as did the composers who followed him. In the other fundamental aspects of his musical language, as well as in the key relations within the single movement, Beethoven may be said to have remained within the classical framework,even while using it in radical and original ways" His symphony no 6, Pastoral, is one of the main pieces that bridges many of the gaps between the classical and romantic era. It is classical in that it is rooted in a tonic-dominant relationship, and includes fugue, cannon and theme and variation. However it can be seen as romantic in that it takes a lot of influence from natural and the natural world. Beethoven was coached and definitely influenced by Haydn, a renowned nature lover for a year. In the Classical period, music did not tend to pertain to this type of influence. The Pastoral symphony however is based largely around nature. It is also programmatic, a distinctive element of romantic writing. By 1808, the time of the pastoral symphony, the romantic movement in poetry was in full swing. Instead of the standard classical 4 movements, the pastoral has 5. The 9th symphony seems to be the main piece of writing that crosses the bridge between the classical and romantic periods, and is seen as the missing link bringing the classical period fully to an end.
