Beethoven the Promethean Video (DVD)

What was Beethoven's music process? How did he come up with his music style? How did he create music when he was dealing with deafness? How was his personal life put into his music? This engaging music history DVD delves into all four of these questions and more with Barenboim -an Argentinean pianist and conductor- discussing and analyzing the famous pianist and composer. The DVD also has performances of compositions by Mozart and Beethoven. Since this video is focused on Beethoven, naturally this would be a great watch for fans of Beethoven's music or those interested in learning more about Beethoven's personal life. It would also be a good DVD for music classes, music history classes, piano classes, music composition classes, and for current and aspiring pianists.
