Volume 206: Beethoven’s 3rd

We pull out the second record from this seven disk box set. This one is filled with an incredible performance of a long piece of music from an incredible composer.

The Reader’s Digest liner notes for this seven record box set starts off "the nineteenth century was just opening in Vienna when the fist of an implacable genius knocked like destiny upon the doors of music." 

They were, of course, talking about the immortal Ludwig Van Beethoven. His symphonies live on in performances to this very day.

So, get ready to hear the man who is said to have set music free in Volume 206: Beethoven's 3rd.
