In a news group focused on science fiction authors this exchange took place. I find the second part of the conversation worth remembering.
First Person: > I love Beethoven. I wish I understood the Quartets, but I guess I'll grow > into them. Second Person: How much of what we love can we truly claim to understand? The important thing is that we love. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Goldberg Sent: Sunday, December 17, 2006 12:50 AM To: The Horn List Subject: [Hornlist] LVB = 236! We just passed Ludwig van Beethoven's birthday #236 yesterday. May the celebrations never cease. Just for fun I googled 'beethoven op.236' - it turns out to be a song that I am not familiar with, but no matter. The website that I hit contains a most amusing typo, of interest to hornists. It is in the opening paragraph, which is a quick biography of Beethoven. Have fun finding it. http://www.musicweb-international.com/Classpedia/Beethoven.htm -- { David Goldberg: [EMAIL PROTECTED] } { Math Dept, Washtenaw Community College } { Ann Arbor Michigan } _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/bgross%40airmail.net _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
