The 39 Apartments of Ludwig van Beethoven**

 This humorous picture book relates how complicated it was when Beethoven would move into a different apartment. The movers lugged five legless pianos from place to place. I chuckled as I read this book. The author's note clarifies which tidbits of information have been verified.

The endpapers are copies of his working score for the piano transcription, "Grosse Fuge".

**Highly, highly recommend.

-Borrowed via ILL.
