Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) was a prolific letter writer.
Often written in great haste - he regularly signed off 'in der
Eile' - his correspondence allows us to follow his anxieties and
preoccupations. From his first letter, written at the age of
thirteen, wherein he declared his lifelong commitment to the craft
of music, through the poignant 'Heiligenstadt Testament', up to the
final codicil to his will, these documents reveal the human figure
behind some of the greatest music ever written. In this two-volume
English translation of 1909, John South Shedlock (1843-1919)
retains as far as possible the idiosyncratic and error-ridden texts
as written by the great composer. Spanning the period 1816-27,
Volume 2 finds Beethoven concerned over his financial situation and
the poor printing of his music, and includes the final codicil to
his will, written just three days before his death.
