Private Notes
The music of Beethoven's creative middle years is explored, alongside the dramatised
recollections of his family and friends. In this period he wrote five symphonies, four concertos,
and his only opera - Fidelio.
Beethoven again revolutionises musical composition with works such as the Hammerklavier
Sonata, the Missa Solemnis, the 9th Symphony and the baffling late string quartets - all composed when
he was profoundly deaf.
