Beethoven was a genius, in spite of the fact that he was deaf!

As I'm typing this blog, I'm listening to Krystian Zimerman, piano, Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Leonard Bernstein, playing my absolute favorite piano concerto - Beethoven's Piano Concerto No 5 in in E♭ major, Op. 73. I especially recommend the 2nd movement. The chord progression the deaf Beethoven came up with is amazing!
I was blessed to be able to support myself as a professional Tuba player for 7 years in the USAF Band in Washington, D.C. I was a member of this fine organization from 1973-1980. At the time, I honestly believe it was the best band in the entire world, and I was fortunate to be a part. (By the way, Beethoven didn't even write a part for the Tuba in this piece, so it is not bias on my part.)

But even more important is the feedback and assistance of the wonderful Wealthy Affiliate Community. Thanks to all my friends for their constant encouragement.
