On this edition of cots 21 we ask why does a child still moves most accounts for his junior feel on this we want to find out. What is hope in me. An eccentric genius beethoven as portrayed by ed harris. Gary Oldman Beethoven was more dishevelled even confused.

Beethoven is just he is the ultimate expression of music humanism. Politics forward thinking fighting against all odds big fun beethoven was born in bonn in december 17th 70 his father was quick to recognize his extraordinary talent. Was just 7 when he gave his 1st formal piano recital. But his moonlight sonata would come later in 1901. Beethoven was a child of his age shaped by the values of the enlightenment and the political and intellectual ideals of the french revolution. It was a difficult thing. Every person and difficult time becomes a difficult person. Beethoven a difficult person. Many music experts would call that an understatement beethoven has been variously described as fierce selfindulgent irascible impatient and egocentric and yet his music for example his 6 symphony is full of beauty. Maybe oh all the stereotypes that we thought about beethoven and these famous. Images of best are not true at all but the question remains who was beethoven really. Was his genius so bast that he couldnt help but feel misunderstood. Something thats often been described as the fate of child prodigies. Sufferers are good with all of this time and. To be in a roans of the branch of. The limb to the root people. Of the rule the world. Perhaps the answer lies in beethovens personal tragedy by the age of 28 he was almost completely down. A man who lived for music and the perfection of sound who could no longer hear. In 824 he conducted the work now regarded by many as his greatest achievement the 9th symphony. Beethoven died 3 years later in vienna the city in whose concert halls and stages he wrote musical history but his legacy is a more.

Also directed the filming over the internet the play itself is about a battle for freedom that ends in failure the director divided it into a separate scene which were then filmed in various locations in baghdad. Shes already spent months working on a project. Much of the inspiration came from beethoven himself and his music. Is for me. To mean the nature of it all has incredible clarity in his musical language. And it just was are going down and also a sincerity in a way when i listen to beethoven i feel cool it and. I also feel free im moved by the music. Not carried away this is kind of new modes and i know from the money theres nothing manipulative about his music its brilliant siskiyou shift freedom.

Buttons and knobs you have to find something that sends out a signal well thats a really important point to a comb and then you have to hold on to that tension. Something clint we sam meets a rock legend. Ian anderson from jethro tull hes a must sing rock on the front. Beethovens 5th the Opening Statement as being typical of the the motif in music not just Classical Music rock music jazz pop whatever im o. T. For an idea that is that is repeated very often as a repeating motif which then tends to be shortened to risk later when did did use that idea develops that idea of the thought that. A good rock or if i suppose is going to be simple direct its going to repeat i love the one minute it was easy top one that is this wonderful shuffle thing with a lot of back beat stuff that is called la grange. Just some sleaze its really 3 notes and in many ways you knows that same thing was the wonderful whole lot of love which is in the whiskey and that. Ian anderson its clear. It was a stop. Maybe beethoven you see him if he was born again today i dont really see him riding around in the stately family for safety. Yes with 2 screaming kids in the back i think of beethoven more like an off road motorcycle guy you know getting a bit down and dirty in the mud thats my idea of a beethoven. With some great bits still ringing in her ears cyrils continues on her quest to explore more musical questions in haiti jokey documentary a World Without beethoven. The deja vu documentary is dedicated to the pastoral beethoven 6 symphony in the sound of nature we meet up with the composer the key cage. Im pretty good im a musician im an environmentalist and for the last few years of dedicated my life for to the sole purpose of creating environmental consciousness through my music im very much indian and i live in india. Ricky kedge was born in the u. S. In 1901. A successful composer and music producer hes performed in over 30 countries around the world. In 2015 hedge won a grammy for his album the winds of some sorrow hes been named a unesco ambassador for kindness but he has another passion beethoven especially his symphony number 6 the Pastoral Symphony which pays homage to nature the pastoral is a composition which i absolutely admired somewhere in the back of my mind for many many years its always been there tried to you know make my own worship of it are trying to view that in my own way and everyone. Simply because this would be like pretty much the mother of all compositions when it comes to nature you are just in time for this anniversary year wrote his own version of beethovens Pastoral Symphony for a traditional indian ensemble. I express myself through indian music so thats why when i had to express myself through be dylans pastoral and my new i do not make of abortions of songs very often in fact its extremely there but in this case it was very very natural for me to do it. With his pastoral project he wants to take a stand for nature since india has huge Environmental Concerns starting with air pollution mitigating the effects of Climate Change youve got deforestation youve got species extinction youve got the plastics problem. But i would say that the Biggest Issue in india is the part that everybody has that somebody else will make a difference. Ricky kedge is a man on a mission and one who inspires the masses. Has gone to the front of the podium while many this is the concert about nature. To cut along the journey of being humans we have forgotten that the odd not the only species on this planet we are just one among millions and millions of species on the planet took one advantage of all cars thanks india is already being adversely affected by Climate Change that the country has been slow to switch to Renewable Energy sources still protest is growing and minds are being changed. I believe that we as indians need to go back to our roots we need to go back to our culture to understand you know where we come from and to understand that we need to live in absolute coexistence and in an absolute balance with that in why meant because that is the key to asa why with. A chosen is perhaps best known for his famous symphonies the 9th was to be followed by the chance which was never finished perhaps he may 1 day be performed after all. Theres musical genius and theres a guy. What happens when the 2 meet can Artificial Intelligence complete with the maestro didnt live long enough to beethovens 10th symphony as a collection of fragmentary sketches now after 200 years the unfinished work is finally supposed to be completed using algorithms but is ai creative enough. Toefl and you cant tell it out of thin air compose like beethoven long that doesnt work what you can do is to train Artificial Intelligence like you would a person show at music once we provide examples that train the ai then it will be in a position to generate new music in the style of beethoven. International team feeds the machine with pieces of music and contemporary samples. It can then recognize structures and sequences of notes analyze them and then make its own suggestions. And its not just beethovens work thats to be completed with the help of algorithms francia but symphony number 8 was finished by ai and made its debut in london in 2019. In the same here gustaf malas now complete night symphony was performed at the us electronica festival in the austria. Often it was impossible to tell who wrote what. Or machine. Now its beethovens turn he loved innovation and trying new things but what do you have been pleased by these 1st drafts produced by a guy it turned out up to 200 variations of individual bars but they all missed the point as well is this the same prize mission ive caught of that its a bit of a hodgepodge mainly because you dont sense theres any direction its not so what i said this is how it needs to continue i think so if i took it. All through the machine couldnt figure that out because it doesnt think or feel. Offers plenty of inspiration but hasnt made human superfluities yet. To this point and many phases of this project man and machine Work Together thats what we aim to show. So that the cooperation between Creative Technology and creative people can create special things being a shuffle. Heres a little preview theres no more to hear yet as the pandemic led to the postponement of the world premiere. So for now the project to complete beethovens unfinished symphony remains ironically unfinished. Thats over his beethoven Anniversary Edition thats 21. 00 more Classical Music and of course more beethoven drop is going to be cheap channel Classical Music and joy and sitting next week.
