I'm ashamed to admit we don't own any of Beethoven's music. I discovered this fact yesterday when Laurent asked to listen to Beethoven. The kids and I have been listening to some of his symphonies and piano concertos (borrowed from the library ) as part of our music education. I am not a classical music lover so this has been a learning experience for me. But, to my delight, we all enjoy his music. So, yesterday when I discovered the only thing classical in our itunes library is Handel's Messiah I was somewhat embarrassed - for myself. I must not be a very well "musiced" person to not own any Beethoven. I intend to change that. If anyone has any recommendations for particularly good recordings of Beethoven's music I'd love to hear them as I'm set to buy some soon.
