From MainlyPiano
"Ludwig van Beethoven: A Life From Beginning to End" is the second in a growing series of Composer Biographies from Hourly History, an organization I only recently discovered and am very impressed with. Covering a very broad range of historical figures and events, these concise but very well-written books are designed to be read in full in about an hour. I thought at first that they might be geared for kids with shorter attention spans, but I find them very interesting and readable and think they would be suitable for teens on up. They provide a great review or overview of many topics for adults as well as an introduction to areas readers may want to explore in more depth later on.

Who knew .
So sad. I wish he had had a happier, healthy life. He left his great treasures for all of us.

A musical genius
Beethoven was a remarkable man. What really impressed me about.him was that he composed some if his most significant n works despite being deaf. He seemed to experience the symptoms of bipolar disorder which would explain his serious mood swings. His deafness doesn't explain his erratic behavior. His compositions are timeless!
