Books by Laura Tunbridge

5. Laura Tunbridge, Beethoven: A Life in Nine Pieces .  Smart books on Beethoven are like potato chips, plus you can listen to his music while reading ( heard Op.33 Bagatelles lately ?).  In addition to some of the classics, this book covers some lesser known pieces such as the Septet, An die Ferne Geliebte, and the Choral Fantasy, and how they fit into Beethoven’s broader life and career.  Intelligent throughout.
