Ludwig van Beethoven: the Heard and the Unhearing : A Medical-Musical-Historical Journey through Time
- The year 2020 marks a special anniversary in our engagement with Ludwig van Beethoven, for it was in this year that he was born in Bonn exactly 250 years ago. The various contributions contained in the present volume paint a portrait of the composer in which music-medical perspectives on Beethoven are investigated and categorized in their historic context. Topics covered include the etiology of Beethoven’s hearing impairment, current possibilities of treatment and interaction between handicap and creativity. It brings together the lectures from the symposium Ludwig van Beethoven: the Heard and the Unhearing – A Medical-Musical-Historical Journey through Time, which took place on October 16th/17th 2020 at the University Clinic Bonn. Sponsorship has been provided by the Beethoven Anniversary Society BTHVN 2020, with scientific coordination of the symposium led by the Freiburg Institute of Musicians’ Medicine, in cooperation with the University Clinic Bonn.
