dr faustus Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Gotta be Beethoven. Yes, he performed until his hearing started to go and yes, that affected his performances. So... before that effect hit him. I think we tend to forget that the "classical" guys were the rock stars of their age and brought as much emotion as the folks nowadays - although usually expressed quite differently and with generally more "class," if not restraint. m Great post - and I agree about Beethoven, Contemporary reports of his playing say that they were "exquisite" and "tempestuous". Would have been something to see... and hear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
