Appreciation of Pathetic Symphony

Although this song belongs to the title song, it is based on the bitter experience and pessimism in the composer's life, but it is by no means a description of a specific event or a specific emotion, but an abstract expression of the common sadness of mankind.

Moreover, "sadness" in Russian contains more meanings of "sentimentality" and "lingering", which better explains why the second theme of the first movement, the first theme of the second movement and the third movement are relatively lively and even carnival.
