Beethoven on His Travels
09.01.2018 to 13.05.2018
Today, travelling is important to us. We go to visit our friends and relations; people travel, perhaps for work or just to be somewhere different. Musicians travel, playing their concerts far and wide. Mozart and Mendelssohn were often on concert tour. But what about Beethoven? Twice he made the long trip from Bonn to Vienna; the second time he stayed in Vienna and made it his home. Where else did he go and why? How did they travel in those days - on foot, by water or with the postcoach?
You can go with Beethoven on his travels – you will certainly make some exciting discoveries!
