BEETHOVEN, Music for a knights ballet, youth orchestra

Product no.: 0434

Beethoven composed this cheerful-ironic piece in 1790 during his student years in Bonn and performed it in spring 1791, perhaps as a contribution to the carnival season. The special "thin" instrumentation was extended to a classical measure.
