Hello, I read in an article by Ian Woodfield in "Music and Letters" August 2012 (Oxford Journals) that Beethoven may have been accompanied by some members of the Willmann family on part of his first trip to Vienna in 1787.
Does anyone know of other accounts of individuals who may have accompanied Beethoven en route or on the way back? Or did the 16-year-old (who possibly thought he was 14 or 15) make this major, unfamiliar journey alone?
Also, was the journey by coach, partly by river, or some other means? Thank you so much! :-) Lindegard
