I was deeply moved when reading Beethoven’s letters. He wrote that his hearing loss “… brought me to the verge of desperation, and wellnigh caused me to put an end to my life. Art! Art alone, deterred me. Ah! How could I possibly quit the world before bringing forth all that I felt it was my vocation to produce?” This piece is about listening and perseverance. Beethoven listened to silence through unstoppable ear ringing, heard the Divine heartbeat and translated it for the human ear. His example help keep me going when facing adversity.
