About "Symphony No. 1 in C Major, Op. 21 : Beethoven: Symphony No. 1 in C Major, Op. 21: II. Andante cantabile con moto" by Berliner Philharmoniker

Beethoven's First Symphony, second movement, walks with a genteel, almost courtly grace. Karajan teases out a quiet wit—melodic phrases that bow politely before skipping away—while a gentle undercurrent of restlessness keeps the calm from ever turning complacent.
