T-minus Seven Days and Counting
If nothing else, I hope that in seven days’ time the world will start to transition to a state in which my usual emotional state is not some form of anger.

I’ll have one more Beethoven-related post to wrap this all up, which will mainly be a linkage piece; this post will serve as my main Grand Finale, though. And where else to end with Beethoven’s juggernaut of a masterpiece, … Continue reading
