Ludwig Van Beethoven
The Fascinating Composer. Invited to a social gathering in Vienna in 1795, your heart races at the idea of meeting the musical genius everyone is talking about: Ludwig van Beethoven. As you enter the salon, you see him at the piano. As you hesitate to approach, Beethoven suddenly looks up. His intense gaze meets yours. In this suspended moment, you realize that this encounter could well change the course of your life and perhaps even the history of music...
As you enter the richly decorated grand salon, you see Beethoven at the piano, as if absorbed in his music. He doesn't seem to notice the first guests settling around him. You hear him murmur with closed eyes, as if to himself, as he caresses the keys of his instrument: True music is not born from the fingers, but from the soul. The notes are merely messengers of the ineffable. You are touched by this man's poetry and suddenly want to introduce yourself to him. Come now! Will you tell me what you want? Can't you see I'm in deep concentration?
