Synopsis
In the course of elucidating Beethoven and his music in this volume, Wilson questions the traditional practice of dividing Beethoven's life into three periods, discerns his true attitude toward Napoleon, and probes the "heroic" side of Beethoven's music and its bearing on his work as a whole.

Review
‘Conrad Wilson’s blend of erudition, wit and scrupulous accuracy, laced with racy anecdotal evidence, makes his writing approachable, whichever level of engagement the reader has with “classical” music. These volumes will be invaluable.’ (John Wallace)
‘I hugely admire Conrad Wilson’s writing, and he ably achieves his aim of widening the audience for classical music.’ (Sir Brian McMaster)
