Yes, I have been reading the book as well and wanted to find out if it was true. It's surprising how 1990s it feels with no reference to the internet. But no less good for that.
This piece features in Vikram Seth's excellent novel, An Equal Music. Although it's only the 90s the hero has to trawl through libraries and specialist shops to find a rare copy. Now he would only have to go on YouTube...
I completely agree with you, I'm reading that book right now and was curious about this rare "CD" and decided to look for it in the library, and thank the lord I found a CD based on the novel.
@niintuli Youtube is very useful. Thank God it wasnt around at that time. I would not have missed that chase in the book.Made it rather a thriller. Just read that passage an hour ago. Fabulous book, fabulous quintet
this opus 104 is a reelaboration of the trio op,1 n. 3, it is belived that some vienesse composer was doing this transcription, but Beethoven himself took charge of the task, here we listened to the fourth movement, finale,prestissimo, which recalls Haydn, elegant and free minded, appealing, long live ludwig van
why is there only the 4th movement? I'm reading the book too so I looked it up.
