Ludwig van Beethoven: to some, the greatest ever composer of Western classical music. Yet his life remains shrouded in myths, and the image persists of him as an eccentric genius shaking his fist. In this book, Oxford professor Laura Tunbridge cuts through the noise in a refreshing way - with each chapter focusing on a period of his life, a piece of music and a revealing theme, from family to friends, heroism to liberty.
