The Life of Ludwig Van Beethoven V2 is a biography of the famous composer written by Alexander Wheelock Thayer and published in 1921. This second volume covers the later years of Beethoven's life, from 1815 until his death in 1827. Thayer draws on a wealth of primary sources, including personal correspondence and contemporary accounts, to provide a detailed and intimate portrait of Beethoven's life and work during this period. The book explores Beethoven's relationships with his family, friends, and patrons, as well as his struggles with deafness and illness. Thayer also delves into the composer's creative process, examining the composition and reception of some of his most famous works, including the Ninth Symphony and the Missa Solemnis. The Life of Ludwig Van Beethoven V2 is a comprehensive and engaging biography that offers a unique glimpse into the life of one of the most influential composers in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
