101 Interesting Beethoven Facts

101 Interesting Beethoven Facts

Mike Lee
0/5 ( ratings)
Music was Beethoven's language. Known to stare at listeners when he played as if attempting to communicate directly to them through his music, his music was him – it was what he believed.

Biographies of “the master” tell us the lurid details of his life but somehow seem to forget the man. Musicologists who analyze the scores and detail the subtle expressions can often leave us cold with their bland assessments of form and phrase. But Beethoven was a real person who lived every day of his life. There are copious comments from people who met him and who spent time with him which are perhaps more revealing of the man than his letters could ever be.

These 101 facts attempt to show the man as he was, what he thought of others, who influenced him, and what other people thought of him.

Beethoven the man, the composer, the master.
