Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 36 // Beethoven's notebooks reveal that this symphony required a great deal of work on his part. It is thought that he wrote three complete scores before he was satisfied with the work, which was completed in 1802, during a stay in Heiligenstadt. His increasing deafness had already begun to attack his moral strength, and many consider the symphony's "poetic material" to be a struggle against fate. The work is, however, too cheerful to justify such an interpretation, and it would seem more reasonable to see it as a reaction against all the sadness imposed on him by his condition. This symphony is, in fact, the culmination of the world before the Revolution, the world of Haydn and Mozart; it was the extreme point that Beethoven could reach before bursting into this marvelous new region, where no man had yet penetrated.

The work was dedicated to Prince Lichnowsky, and Beethoven conducted it for the first time on April 5, 1803 at the ‘Theater an der Wien’; it was not well received. After a performance in Leipzig, the symphony was criticized as "a rude surprise, an expiring snake, bleeding and writhing wildly, striking out in all directions but refusing to die". This image probably applies to the last movement, which was described as "indigestible and bizarre" and found far too difficult to execute. Strangely enough, even the second movement was not favorably received; Berlioz tells us that several years later, at a performance in Paris, the allegro from the Seventh Symphony was substituted. The general opinion was that the Second Symphony was too long, and large parts of it were consequently omitted in order to bring it down to the "right size". Sometimes, only the first and third movements were played. Although Beethoven protested strongly against the transcription of his First Symphony for quintet, he accepted several modifications to the Second Symphony, and even arranged it personally for piano trio.

I. Adagio molto, Allegro con brio. The introduction is considerably longer than that of the First Symphony. Modulations and orchestration are surprisingly modern.
II. Larghetto. This movement, written in sonata form, is melodically rich, "refined like an old-fashioned perfume, with a peaceful, serene beauty". Ries describes it as "amiable, naive and cheerful.
III. Scherzo, Allegro. This was the first of Beethoven's third movements to be called "scherzo" instead of "minuet". It is short and lively. In the trio, woodwinds and strings seem to be playing hide-and-seek.
IV. Allegro molto. This movement is written in rondo form, beginning with what sounds like a burst of laughter and continuing with one of the wittiest themes Beethoven ever wrote. From beginning to end, it is marked by exuberant gaiety. Berlioz said that this movement "was a second scherzo in two-beat meter, but even more exquisite and piquant than the first."
