1. For many people Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) is the most influential

him following the .................... (MATURE) death of his father. The very best
teachers were automatically available to Franz's, who made his public debut as a
singer, aged five. The songs bring to light Franz's ................... (PIANO)
accomplishments; the piano parts are extremely demanding. The songs hint at
Franz's love for a woman; they speak time and again of unattainable love
