Happy Birthday Beethoven

Today is Beethoven's birthday. His short bio is here. I love his Fifth Symphony and his "Ode to Joy". He was one of the great composers of all time. If you want to learn more about his life and contribution, I recommend checking out the courses Robert Greenberg gives at the Teaching Company.

I highly recommend his late string quartets. They're nothing like his earlier work. Broken, and heartbroken, and haunting.
