Not only did the ‘Eroica’ break all previous symphonic moulds in its sheer size and complexity, it was also the nineteenth century’s first major avant-garde work: one that severely challenged both performers and its audiences. It might be useful to note some of the methods Beethoven used without ascribing too many motives, other than technical, to him.
