Allegretto from The Creatures of Prometheus: 2nd Violin

Absolutely perfect for cross-curricular study in middle school or high school! Prometheus, through trickery, stole fire from Zeus, gave it to mortals, and was punished daily for eternity for the crime. This is a great topic for discussion and students will have a great time imagining which of the creatures are being portrayed all the while being immersed in Beethoven.
