Do you want me to guide you through each of the symphonies? I could provide a general outline of each movement if you want me to. I could point out when the first theme comes in to play, the second theme, what devices Beethoven uses in his development.. etc..

Oh, and what recording did you buy? Who's you conductor? Please don't say it's Karajan... That guy butchers the poor symphonies.
These recordings are bought from japan.. And the conductors a japanese I think. I'll listen to the first symphony later today. (Maybe just the first movement.) Then if I have any questions, I'll post it here, so it can be viewed by all forum members and also act as good reference.
