Meditation on Beethoven
Text by Dawoud Kingle
As I write this, I’m listening to Herbert Von Karajan conducting the Berlin Orchestra in a performance of Beethoven’s 7th symphony, allegretto, 2nd movement.
This is what I’m hearing: Beethoven is getting old. Death is no longer an abstract idea; it is becoming real. He accepts it, as we all must. But the pain of his life is weighing on him. He struggles with memories and loneliness. And from time to time, glimpses of joy and moments happiness come to him, suggesting a great reward at the end of his trials. But for now, he must endure his pain. And his passion.
