BEETHOVEN'S 5TH—VOL. 2 OF AUDIOMAPS® TO THE BEETHOVEN SYMPHONIES NOW COMPLETED!
People were blown away by Russell Steinberg's AudioMaps and found them exceptionally useful, even when I had less than an hour to show how they work and what they mean. Several people (one of them a 90-year-old former teacher) said, "How could I have lived this many years, and listened to music this long, and never had that explained to me before? That's the coolest thing I ever saw! Why isn't this information in the program notes at a concert? How can we make sure that all young people have this information, to help them understand and appreciate classical music?"
