Légende

'Haydn praised the composition highly', (1907). In 1792, the celebrated Austrian composer Haydn 'was to pass through Bonn on his way to Vienna from London, where his compositions and playing had created a sensation, and the band had arranged a grand reception in his honour. Beethoven...was amongst the invited guests...and he seized the opportunity of submitting to the master a cantata which he had lately composed. Haydn praised the composition highly, and warmly encouraged Beethoven to go on with his studies - words which sent the young composer back to his work with glowing cheeks and a determination to accomplish greater things.' An episode from the life of German composer Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). From "Story-Lives of Great Musicians", by F.J. Rowbotham. [Wells Gardner, Darton & Co. Ltd, London, 1907]
