In Search of Beethoven offers a comprehensive documentary about the life and works of the great composer. Over 65 performances by the world's finest musicians were recorded and 100 interviews conducted in the making of this beautifully crafted film. It delves beneath the mythical image of the tortured, cantankerous genius to search for the real Ludwig van Beethoven. Narrated by Juliet Stevenson and young Royal Shakespeare Company actor David Dawson. "One of the finest movies about a great musician I've ever seen" -- The Observer.
