Classical and Bebop Jazz, although originating from two distinct musical structures share many similar musical characteristics, such as; harmony, major and minor tonality, use of articulation, use of dynamics, polytonality and rhythm. BeBop Jazz is a subcategory of Jazz that originated in the United States in the 1940s. Bebop Jazz developed as a way to challenge the principles of big band music. This genre of music was revered by many because of its freedom of improvisation, which at the time was less characteristic of big band music.

Beethoven's 5th Symphony was composed between 1804 and 1808. Beethoven's 5th Symphony is one of the most famous works of the classical period.
