Beethoven's Unopened Documents?

[EternaLisa]

I forget how old this is-I'd save it a few years back...so stated: is it still relevant (re: the last paragraph)? If so would you please shed a little light on it?

I'd suggested to someone on a different forum that some yet unearthed documents in regards to Ludwig are liable to surface and prove wrong a point that was made--I surprised myself by rediscovering this in some old electronic files I'd packratted...

Interesting, I'd no idea that there were Beethoven documents unopened for fear of damage.

As far as I am aware, there aren't any

ah well-perhaps it's long been OBE...? I just checked on the internet and 2007 doesn't seem that far gone...

the 2d article speaks differently in that "Within just a few years, the technique should even become capable of imaging the pages of unopened books. This will allow the team to make facsimiles of documents such as original scores by Mozart and Beethoven, which have been seriously damaged by the ink in which they are written."

Maybe it was a little misleading then (the media is notoriously bad about sensationalizing stuff...)

thanks anyway,

Still, it's intriguing to find Mozart and Beethoven mentioned in an article about the Dead Sea Scrolls.

yeah--and I do get the antsy little feeling that the world hasn't been witness to "everything Beethoven", yet
