Good for the American Society, I'm still after many years of enquiry trying to discover if there is a British Society If there is it must be super secret!

Lysander, thanks for the tip on the All Beethoven Music. Have you been to The American Beethoven Society's website?http://www.sjsu.edu/depts/beethoven/index.html
Try this, you might find it interesting. Lots of information. Even a picture of Beethoven's famous lock of hair. Also a lot of information about The Society. I visited the museum a couple of years ago and they have a wonderful exhibit of Beethoven memorabilia. It's the largest collection in the Northern hemisphere. I saw the lock of hair, many manuscripts, receipts, portraits, etc. Also got to play on an exact replica of one of his pianos from the 1790's. Wonderful place to go for Beethoven's aficionados.

Thankyou Joy,

I have been a member of the American Beethoven Society for a couple of years now, and receive Their scholarly Beethoven Journal twice per year, Their research and topics are truly brilliant.
With the December issue they also sent me a mounted picture of Beethoven, A4 size.
Engraving by W.Holl after a Painting by Kloeber.
It is the same picture they have on their web site page.
I have also viewed Beethovens hair on the web site as you can zoom in on it.
But seeing it for real must be like looking at a holy relic.
I have read the fascinating book on Beethoven's hair, by Russell Martin, I think you may have mentioned that you also read it.
I would like to visit the American Beethoven Society some day, but my dilema is that I am really not keen on flying.
Isn't their a Beethoven museum in Vienna,
I am sure that Andrea has visited it.

I used to live in Canada in the 60's'-70's, and have a sister living in New Jersey,
but it has been many moons since I have flown.

Lysander.
