Article title

[edit]

In line with octets by Mendelssohn, Reich, Schubert, Stravinsky, this article about LvB's only octet should be named Octet (Beethoven) (currently a REDIRECT). See also Talk:Octet (Stravinsky)#Title of Article. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:00, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good to me. Done. Graham87 09:25, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Number of Movements?

[edit]

The article indicates that the Octet has four movements: 1.Allegro, 2.Andante, 3.Menuetto, and 4.Presto

However, a recording of this work, on period instruments, presents the octet as five movements: 1.Allegro, 2.Andante, 3.Menuetto-Allegro, 4. Rondo-andante, 4.Finale-Presto
