This program is a summation of the first development of the symphony as conceived by Haydn, Mozart and the early Beethoven. The examples used to show this development include the Minuet and Trio of Mozart's 39th Symphony, and the finales of Haydn's Symphony Number 102, Mozart's Symphony Number 41, and Beethoven's Symphony Number 1. Musical ideas and their development are explored in terms of a consistent classical pattern.
The Cambridge Festival Orchestra joins Professor Woodworth in a consideration of the romantic expansion of the orchestra. The brass choir in Beethoven's hands developed tremendously, and this was picked up and carried on by Mendelssohn, Brahms, Mahler and Tchaikovsky. Woodwinds and percussion instruments were also increasingly used to obtain special effects. Examples of this development are played, and at the end Professor Woodworth and the orchestra perform portions of two contrasting 20th Century Symphonies—Sibelius' Symphony Number 5 and Piston's Symphony Number 3—both of which used instrumentation to convey special moods.
