"Oh, that my name were etched in the hearts of men!"

Ludwig van Beethoven

Classical Composer German 1770–1827

"Music is the electrical soil in which the spirit lives, thinks and invents."

"To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable."

"Beethoven can write music, thank God, but he can do nothing else on earth."
