Best Answer

Beethoven's 3rd Symphony, is the third symphony written by Ludwig van Beethoven. It was originally entitled "Napoleon" because Beethoven admired Napoleon Bonaparte as a liberator of the oppressed and a great hero. Beethoven eventually recognised Bonaparte for what he was and changed the name to "Eroica" (A Great Man). Full title is - Symphony No. 3 in E flat major, op. 55 "Eroica" "Op" is short for opus. Opus means work, so it is his 55th work. ---- == == Beethoven's Third Symphony was originally written in honor of Napoleon, but when Napoleon had himself crowned "Emperor," Beethoven was disgusted and changed the name to Eroica (Heroic). Beethoven's Third represents the beginning of his middle period, where he begins to understand and come to grips with his impending deafness. For some, Beethoven's Third also represents the end of the Classical period and the beginning of the Romantic period.

Beethoven's Symphony no. 3 in E flat major is called the Eroica.

It was originally named the Napoleon in honour of Napoleon Bonaparte. However, Beethoven was most disillusioned after Napoleon proclaimed himself Emperor of France. He renamed it Eroica, meaning "heroic" in Italian, and dedicated it to "a great man" - essentially meaning "any" great man.

What is the most unifying musical factor in the Fifth Symphony?

I'm going to assume you mean Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. The most unifying factor of Beethoven's fifth is the cyclical nature of the multi-movement piece. It features a reoccuring motif that is rhythmic rather than melodic. The recognizable rhythm: short, short, short, long, is a rhythm that exists all throughout the symphony (which is very strange and at the time, unprecedented). Most movements of a symphony are not connected. Beethoven used his Fifth Symphony to bridge the gap between movements. In arguably every movement of the Fifth (a little less in the 2nd movement) one can hear this unifying rhythm that connects the symphony nicely.
