You might enjoy this article in today's The Guardian newspaper. Taken from extracts of Luis Sophr's autobiography as it was published by the same paper in 1865.

Who is this Beethoven guy? Strange fellow…

(14 more years to his 250th birth year anniversary)

Poor old Beethoven ...

Without music, the world would be grey, very grey.

What a fantastic article! It fits exactly the image portrayed of him in those famous pictures - wild hair, moody expression. What a character. I sometimes stop and think: how hard can it be to interest the next generation in this stuff with guys like Beethoven populating the archives?
