Bøger af Mandie Garcia

Ludwig van Beethoven was performing before the public at the age of seven. By the time he was 12 years old, this child prodigy composed and published his first work for the piano. Beethoven's father was an alcoholic, so the young boy was at times the financial support for his family, including his beloved mother, with whom he had a very close relationship. By the time of his death in 1827, Beethoven had composed nine symphonies and was completing his tenth. Despite his family and health problems, this man is responsible for much of the music we enjoy today in nearly every musical venue and interpretation. Mandie Garcia has written a stunning biography about this musical genius that depicts Beethoven's life, his struggles and how he overcame seemingly insurmountable obstacles to become one of the greatest composers in history. Included in her narrative is an opportunity to learn a new word on each page. This educational and personal account of the man, the musician, and the genius will inspire everyone, especially young readers, to pursue and realize their dream.
