Album Description
An aspiring composer of humble means, 23-year-old Anna Holtz (Diane Kruger) is seeking inspiration and career advancement in the world's music capital, Vienna. A student at the music conservatory, she is recommended for a position at a venerated publisher, and, in a fortuitous turn of events, orchestrates an opportunity to work beside the greatest, most mercurial artist alive--Ludwig van Beethoven (Ed Harris). When the skeptical Beethoven issues an impromptu challenge, Anna demonstrates her competence and musical insight. The maestro accepts Anna as his copyist, beginning a remarkable relationship that will transform both of their lives. Featuring Harris's remarkable incarnation as the celebrated composer, and a breakthrough performance by Kruger, ("Troy, "National Treasure") COPYING BEETHOVEN, directed by Agnieszka Holland, ("Secret Garden, "Europa, Europa") centers on the last years of Beethoven's life...a turbulent period in which his struggles with deafness, loneliness and family trauma all of which provide profound inspiration for arguably the greatest symphony ever written, his astonishing Ninth. An MGM release of a Sidney Kimmel Entertainment production. Myriad Pictures presents COPYING BEETHOVEN opens on October 13. The Decca soundtrack will be released on October 10 and features the works of Ludwig van Beethoven.

My dad tortured me with classical music when I was young. It wasn't until several years later that I came to appreciate it on my own; and I still consider myself to be very much a novice in this genre. With that said, I think this album is excellent!
