This version has been adapted and facilitated for a small instrumental quartet, this arrangement is ideal for beginners in music or children who need to practice together. Music educators or music schools can use this material as a pedagogical tool to teach classes or even use as repertoire for recitals. The theme has been reduced to approximately 3 minutes and 24 seconds, where the first voice does the melody while the remaining three do the rhythmic marking along with the harmony.
Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 in A major Op. 92 was written in mid-1811 while he was in the spa town of Teplice, Bohemia hoping to regain his health. It was completed in 1812, and was dedicated to Count Moritz von Fries. It had its premiere at a charity concert for soldiers wounded at the battle of Hanau, Vienna during the Napoleonic wars, under the conductor of the composer himself.
Its second movement Allegretto, characterized by a rhythmic ostinato almost like a march, is the best known of the symphony and also one of the best known of the composer's works, characterized by the almost continuous repetition of the E note in the harmony among the chord degrees present.

This is a special arrangement of the famous Pachelbel Canon for three violins, with the continuo part arranged for a fourth violin. It means it can be played without keyboard accompaniment and, as with all my four violin arrangements, makes a handy ensemble piece in situations where there are no lower strings or keyboard player available. It was a popular favourite with the Spring Quartet www.springquartet.co.uk before the lockdown! david@springquartet.co.uk
