luisa grew up playing concerts  ,  always in black or  ,  when her father decided a concert was important enough  ,  in a vibrant color  .  she never saw the reasons behind the clothing choices  ,  most would notice the young girl playing piano at the front of the stage  ,  she thought  .  the dark colors had seeped into her daily wardrobe  ,  so much so that the sight of so much pink surprised her enough to stare at the other woman  . once she realized that she was  ,  in fact  ,  staring  ,  her cheeks flushed a bright red and she glanced away  .  

❛  i’m sorry  ! ❜ her accent was always thick when she spoke english  ,  so she spoke slowly .  ❛  you are so bright  ,  it catches the eye  . ❜

luisa pulled her hood over her head  ,  rain falling on the streets hard enough to make the girl squint to see the road in front of her  .  she would admit that the drinks she had had made walking in it more difficult than it ought to be  ,  but she had made it home with more drinks in her and in worse conditions than she was currently  .  

❛  you’ll catch your death out here  , ❜  she rubbed her arms beneath her cloak when she stumbled upon another woman in the storm  .  her entire body had stiffened and she nearly jumped when the woman just seemed to APPEAR from the rain  (  although  ,  luisa would be one to admit that perhaps her drinking had affected her more than she originally assumed  . )

Ludwig the virtuoso

Ludwig was annoyed at a Berlin audience for weeping over his performance. He complained to a friend, “That’s not what we artists wish. We want applause!”

Carl Czerny recorded how Beethoven mocked his audiences for breaking out into sobs and emotional displays after his improvisations. “You are fools! Who can live among such spoiled children?” 

In Beethoven’s twenties, the piano was still a delicate, all-wooden instrument. Ludwig once broke so many strings while performing a Mozart concerto that his friend Anton had to untangle broken strings from the piano as he played.

Friedrich Himmel, royal pianist of the court of Prussia, once improvised for Beethoven. After Friedrich had played for a moment, Ludwig snapped, “Well, when are you going to start?” He explained later, “I thought Himmel had just been preluding a bit.”

In 1797, Ludwig dedicated a four-hand piano sonata to Countess von Browne, who gave him a horse in thanks. He rented space for it at a stable and forgot about it until he was shocked and infuriated by a huge feed bill.

Ludwig lived across the street from his student Babette. He showed up for her morning piano lessons in a sleeping cap, dressing gown, and slippers. He dedicated several pieces of music to her, including the passionate Grande Sonata op. 7, nicknamed “The Beloved.”

An amateur pianist named Carl described Ludwig: “Whoever sees Beethoven for the first time and knows nothing about him would surely take him for a malicious, ill-natured and quarrelsome drunk who has no feeling for music.”
