In a contemporary review, the critic of the Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung wrote of Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony: »It opens with an introduction in which the imaginative composer with his bold flights of fancy, the dexterous master of counterpoint and the witty harmoniser are unmistakably present!« The unspeakable rhythmic drive of the scherzo, the review goes on, gives evidence of »Beethoven’s teasing wit«, while the boisterous and convivial finale depicts »wild carousing«.
