Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major “Eroica”, Op. 55 — III. Scherzo — Allegro vivace

About this work

The scherzo springs forward in short bursts before the trio opens the texture around the horn calls.

Follow the handovers between strings and winds, then mark the horns’ return without making the three beats heavy.

Rehearse the scherzo’s light attacks separately from the trio’s broader sustain; the contrast should come from sound as much as tempo.
