The Allegretto was immediately well received.
Besides the music's beauty, two elements connect it with the China-Europe-America Philanthropy Cooperation Initiative.
First, the work was premiered in 1813 at a charity concert. Beethoven himself conducted the orchestra on that day.
Second, Beethoven composed the Symphony No. 7 in A Major while improving his health in a spa town. Elevating the mind, the music brings also strength.
