you left out the best part.... that the mysterious girl they were fighting over was actually a whore! yes a prostitute who preferred the company of this violinist over beethovens .... gasp

Thanks for this fascinating story. It blows me away that Bridgetower apparently sight-read the sonata before an audience and did it so well that he was wildly applauded.

Pretty woman and great musician!!

Dear Ms. Pine
Did you perform the entire sonata this evening? I can't imagine playing that naked opening after schmoozing with the audience for 4 minutes. Regardless, the story brings humanity to Beethoven and removes him from a pedestal--at least momentarily.

Yes, I did perform the entire sonata that evening, but I thought the second movement was particularly up to my YouTube standard :)

why do you have two people sitting at the piano?

The pianist and the page turner! (With a sonata like this, the pianist would have to drop lots of notes if he turned his own pages.)
