BEETHOVEN 200 YEARS AGO TODAY: Tuesday, October 11, 1825

Beethoven continues his work on the Grosse Fuge, which is expanding as he works on it.

He receives an undated letter today from Nephew Karl, and will respond to it tomorrow.

If Beethoven’s letter to Karl tomorrow is to be credited, then while on a walk today through the countryside he is somehow put into danger, though he is not in the event harmed or injured.
