CHAPTER

I'm a Good Figure. And I'd Love to Ask Beethoven Some Important Questions

Benjamin Zander: I want to ask Beethoven some important questions, because I've wrestled with his music for 50 years. He loved that when the metronome was discovered and invented, it wasn't discovered,. It was invented by his friend in Vienna, Melzel, came with this metronomeThat could tell how fast the music should be. And so he started using it and he told everybody, you've got to use the meetronome. The TED talk is a 20 minutes distillation of this in which I take a piece and show how it can grow from ordinary from a seven year old child to artistry.
