About the Author

The genius of Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) casts a long shadow over classical music -- no other composer of the past two centuries has exercised a more profound influence. A product of the Classicist generation, he was the first of the Romantics, and his works remain undiminished in their powers of enchantment.
