Wow, they had some fantastic remedies back then: lead, arsenic and mercury!
I also read that if Beethoven lived in our era, his deafness could have been cured, or at least lessened.

Rage Over a Lost Piano? 



Seriously, thanks for that! 

[Bonehelm]

100% recommend Bernstein's Ode to Freedom recorded in Berlin, 1989...after the fall of the wall. The intensity of the final chorus is exhilariting...

Rage Over a Lost Piano? 

If I lost an entire piano, I'd be pissed too.   It's like I know I have to clean my apartment, but this is ridiculous...
