The Treasures Of Beethoven

This slipcase edition includes rare removable memorabilia facsimiles and a CD of extracts from classic Beethoven works.

It examines the story behind the music - of the small boy spurned by his fellows at school and pushed by is father to succeed, of the promising teenager sent to Vienna to meet Mozart and later taught by Haydn, and of the tormented adult who never found the love he craved but instead poured all his emotions into his music.

CD is included.
