The symphony of destiny is Beethoven's work. The full name is symphony no 5 in c minor, op 67, written in 1807- 1808. Beethoven once said, "The first four notes of the first movement mean' fate is knocking at the door'". Music embodies the author's idea of fighting against fate all his life and finally winning. The work is a heroic and epic victory of heroic will over fatalism and light over darkness.

Motion structure

The theme of fate knocking at the door in the first movement is ruthless, but the forces of resistance are also gathering, and the tight rhythm of the band is constantly rising. The resistance between the theme of fate and the tight rhythm comes and goes, like a fierce struggle.

The theme of the second movement is profound and firm, with changeable development. The third movement starts from the bass, melodious, and the whole tone rises gradually, just like the convergence of various forces. The fourth movement is ambitious and passionate. In the final decisive battle, light and freedom won a complete victory.

Influenced by German songs, the melody is bold and firm, leading to the climax of joy and ending in jubilation. This song is an immortal work in the history of symphonic music, and it is also a famous song played the most times by major symphony orchestras in the world.
