    The Creatures of Prometheus (German: Die Geschöpfe des Prometheus), Op. 43, is a ballet composed in 1801 by Ludwig van Beethoven following the libretto of Salvatore Viganò. The ballet premiered on 28 March 1801 at the Burgtheater in Vienna and was given 28 performances.
    The overture to the ballet is part of the concert repertoire. Beethoven based the fourth movement of his Eroica symphony and his Eroica Variations (piano) on the main theme of the last movement of the ballet.

    Beethoven is who got me interested in classical music. I thought I knew most of his works. At the age of 78 it was a joy to "discover" something new by him. Quality writing from his middle period, not a student exercise.

    A l'époque de Beethoven, le personnage du titan Prométhée était d'abord connu à travers le poème éponyme de Goethe
    en 1774. D'après une version largement répandue du mythe, Prométhée est un titan rebelle qui pour le bonheur de l'humanité, se révolte contre Zeus !.Grâce au feu qu'il a dérobé aux dieux, il apporte au hommes toutes les sciences, arts et technique , Zeus le punit de ce méfait !. le livret fut de Salvatore Vigano !. Mais Beethoven nous contes en histoire musical
    cette mythologie par son Génie de la Musique !.J'aime beaucoup !, Les Créatures de Prométhée !.( 1801) ( Sans doute le livret fut perdu .)

      In short, the story of Prometheus ends with the breaking of a cycle, Beethoven's 3rd symphony is famous for pioneering classical music, and being one of the first leaps towards romanticism from classical styles.
      To put it short, Romanticism focus less on rigid structure and form, as classical symphonies did, and put more emphasis on expression; where it was more about conveying an idea and achieving an artistic goal. This is why he reused this melody, as a call back to breaking the cycle.
