The author was an established biographer of organ composers, such as \u003ci\u003eThe Organ Works of Bach\u003c\/i\u003e. Attributing Beethoven’s disagreeable demeanour to his childhood, the author embarks on a passionate defence of Beethoven’s essential nobility of character, hoping to assuage the then-prevalent anti-Beethoven chill and to encourage readers to discover Beethoven anew. The volume covers an overview of Beethoven’s life, followed by his personality and an assessment of his works in an exploration of the most important characteristics of Beethoven’s works and their influence on his successors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45600168673518,"sku":"9781138602052","price":55.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/ludwig-van-beethoven-1927-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
