Beethoven was (probably) born on this day in 1770. WNYC’s Overnight Music is celebrating by playing all nine symphonies in a row; you can catch the webstream here. (They’re on the Eroica right now.) Later tonight, they will conclude their survey of the 32 piano sonatas; you can leave suggestions here. For me, Beethoven was, and always will be, it.
Was just checking to see how things were going on your blog…
I love that you say Beethoven was and always will be it… I whole heartedly agree. 🙂 Lets catch up soon!
Ludwig Van! Especially ‘it’ to Alex before, of course, ‘The Sickness’.
