Title: Are you a musicologist?
Review: I am a longtime fan of Beethoven- the greatest artist yet born, but like most I don't know enough about the man and his life.This book begins with, and is thoroughly bogged-down by philosophical wanderings so far away from Beethoven himself that I often wondered what the author's intent was. I think I finally found out: to impress us with his knowledge of the arcane workings of musical form.I would like a good biography of Beethoven, Please.Do not buy this book.
