Beethoven - Symphony No. 5 (Proms 2012)

The symphony starts dramatically with the use of sting instruments such as violins, cello, viola and double bass. It starts quite dramatically but calms until about 20 seconds in to where it picks up and then holts again to bring in another string track. This stays the same until about 54 seconds in where the use brass instruments such as the french horn kick in and change the tune of the song so that the woodwind can start by changing the tone and timber of the song to more peaceful the instruments used are likely to be oboe or clarinet.
