Letter To Beethoven


From 30 Days



Dear Ludwig,

Thanks for that 9th Symphony.

As a young man in my early 20s, you taught me all there was to know about time travel. Through your vision and commitment, you were able to transport the very essence of emotion and thought through the ages in a way that is much more powerful than the spoken word.

Through all your trails and pain and handicaps, you were able to see the world for what it is and find god all at the same time. You summed it up. For all of us.

Like Synergy, the sum of the parts you created add up to much more than the whole. You lifted me up to a height that I never knew existed. To sit atop a mountain, or on a beach and listen to what you made transcends everything. You created one of the pieces to life's puzzle and gave it to all of us.

You taught me something that no one else could....even though you have been gone for over 200 years.

Good job old man, and many thanks.

  1. Hi Lotus,

    Like that one. Good old Ludwig, he brought long moments of happiness to many people.

    If you have some more time, listen to his 5th concerto for pano and orchestra (Brendel at the piano) or his only concerto for violin and orchestra (Menuhin playing the piano).

    Georg
