My favorite composer

This podcast is great. And you know what makes it even greater for me? Beethoven is my favorite composer. I don’t think there’s ever been a piece of his that I don’t like.

I am grateful for you Beethoven, for creating all this wonderful music for me and others to enjoy and analyze. May your music continue to be enjoyed for centuries by classical music lovers such as myself.
