About this item
Based on the stately march theme from Beethoven's 8th Symphony, this arrangement is a great example of Beethoven's mix of seriousness with his wry sense of humor. Jamin has included some nice feature moments for the under-worked and under-appreciated low strings.

Composer
Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770-1827)
Ludwig van Beethoven (baptized 17 December 1770 – 26 March 1827) was a German composer and pianist. The crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in Western art music, he remains one of the most famous and influential composers of all time.
Born in Bonn, then the capital of the Electorate of Cologne and part of the Holy Roman Empire, Beethoven moved to Vienna in his early 20s, studying with Joseph Haydn and quickly gaining a reputation as a virtuoso pianist. His hearing began to deteriorate in the late 1790s, yet he continued to compose, conduct, and perform, even after becoming completely deaf.
