Allegretto (from The Creatures of Prometheus) Ludwig van Beethoven / Arr. Rick England

STRING ORCHESTRA

Absolutely perfect for cross-curricular study in middle or high school! Prometheus, through trickery, stole fire from Zeus, gave it to mortals, and was punished for eternity for the crime. This is a great topic for discussion and students will have a great time imagining which creatures are being portrayed all the while being immersed in Beethoven.
