History was a living presence that never ceased to inform his work, although sadly most of his loftiest creations were never actually built."Rondo allegro [6/8, C, D+]"The concluding rondo is an alternately cheerful and dramatic portrayal of the young Beethoven. I even went so far as to borrow a theme from his Second Piano Concerto, but repaid the loan by introducing a new turn of phrase that maintains the movement's characteristically sunny disposition.""Boullée fully understood the tremendously important role music would play in the lives of the people, and envisioned vast neoclassical structures which, together with the great music heard within, would nourish and uplift the public's spirit."
