Beethoven hits 248 today, HBD to him.
Freeper’s & Happy Patriots out there please turn off your Drake, Miley Cyrus and Slipknot songs and play some Beethoven instead.

I do love that, as well as the 7th and 9th symphonies (really, most all of them) Oh, and the 9th must be the full, choral version.
The fact that he was deaf (major tinnitus) when he composed the 9th still amazes me.

Question: What’s the brown substance on the piano stool?
Answer: Beethoven’s last movement.
To: CaliforniaCraftBeer
In one of history’s supreme ironies Beethoven, one of the universal masters of sound, lost his hearing.
Beyond tragic . . .

Listened to his 9th last night. No, it wasnn’t Clockwork Orange.

But of course! He only forgot once.

Happy b-day, LVB

Invigorating, enlivening, enriching performance.
Mr. Bernstein looked like he was having the most fun
Pianist Zimmerman was totally emersed from the first note all the way through...
BRAVO
