Beethoven-Liszt - Symphony 4 (II. Adagio) - Cyprien Katsaris Piano

This is the second movement of Beethoven's fourth symphony as arranged by Franz Liszt and performed by Cyprien Katsaris. Beethoven composed his 4th symphony (Op. 60) in 1806. In some passages, Cyprien Katsaris made modifications to Liszt's arrangement including adding notes for instruments that Liszt had omitted.

Wikipedia has this information about the second movement:

"The second movement, in 3/4 time (E♭ major) is a slow rondo. The rhythmic figure of the opening theme persists throughout, and underpins, the whole movement.

Tovey calls the first episode (or second subject) "a still more subtle melody."

The main theme returns in an elaborate variation, followed by a middle episode and the reappearance of the varied main theme, now played by the flute. A regular recapitulation is followed by a coda that makes a final allusion to the main theme, and the timpani bring the movement to an end with the last appearance of the rhythmic theme with which the movement began."
