December 15 - Ludwig van Beethoven [sic] (The Musical Birthday Series, 2nd Annual Cycle)

Ludwig van Beethoven’s (16 December 1770 – 26 March 1827) birthday is generally celebrated on
December 16, although there is no documentary proof of the date.  We know for certain he
was baptized on the 17th.

'Twas the Night Before…


Two hundred fifty years ago

    (December 16th, we believe)

In Bonn was born, amid the snow,

A great composer, as you know,

   And for the grand occasion we’ve

Let our feelings overflow

To wish you all before we go,

   A HAPPY ROCKIN’ LUDWIG EVE!

   From your friendly blogger, Steve.
