Fate Knocks At The Door
_A Novel_
By
Will Levington Comfort
Author of
"Routledge Rides Alone,"
"She Buildeth Her House," etc.
1912
In speaking of the first four notes of the opening movement, Beethoven
said, some time after he had finished the Fifth Symphony: "So pocht das
Shicksal an die Pforte" ("Thus Fate Knocks at the Door"); and between
that opening knock, and the tremendous rush and sweep of the Finale,
the emotions which come into play in the great conflicts of life are
depicted.
--From Upton's _Standard Symphonies_.
