Beethoven The Third Movement Analysis

This movement sounds like he was painting a beautiful picture. It has some kinds of romantic emotion, but Beethoven described it by a sorrowful way. Beethoven composed this movement use lots of sixteenth notes, from one part to others. The theme sixteenth notes were formed by A.F.E.D. This movement was totally different with the second movement, and makes a confrontation with the first movement. This also can give expression to Beethoven have a firm belief in the struggle for victory. However, this movement comes to an abrupt end. This makes people to reverie. There are still having hardships in the endeavor. Like the end of the Shakespeare’s Tempest, the protagonist subdued his foes. However, he let the past be forgotten, and forgave all of his foes. This also gave expression to the helpless of can’t triumph over the societal forces and limitations. This explained the ending of Beethoven’s tempest sonata and Shakespeare’s Tempest has some relevance.
This movement is tender and full of love, but still sad. According to Jones, “The finale engages primarily with the first movement’s motoric characteristics, it presents a more thorough synthesis of sentiment and the sublime than the Adagio.” Beethoven used the sixteenth notes on both the melody and accompany. These sixteenth notes make the music flowing and give the music some new energy. Also, those sixteenth notes are played as a group. About this Jones says, “Despite its moderate tempo marking, the finale’s phrase structure is based on groups of hypermeasures rather than of individual bars.” This means that we should treat them as a phrase instead of single note. The musical structure of this movement is exposition (M.1-M.90), development (M.95-M.214), recapitulation (M.215-M.318) and coda
