Beethoven Lives Upstairs (CD) A tale of genius and childhoodMr. Beethoven, a crabby and eccentric old man, comes to live upstairs at little Christophe's house. In an exchange of letters between Christophe and his uncle, we hear how he learns to admire the aging composer and understand his suffering from deafness. Beethoven invites the boy to attend the premier of his Ninth Symphony, and Christophe is swept away by the beauty of the music. The story is accompanied by excerpts from Beethoven's music, including the Moonlight Sonota, the Pathethique, Fur Elise, and, of course, the Ninth Symphony. Length: about 45 min. Age Range: All Ages |
