'UDWIG VON BEETHOVEN -the man whose genius freed music and allowed it to soar to a loftier realm. His Iife's sufferings and anguish are poured forth in his infinite late compositions. Later men sought beyond his path to attempt another step approaching absolute music. His works, exceeding 350, are nearly all forms of instrumental and vocal compositions.
