SUMMARY:Hearing Beethoven
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Robin Wallace of Baylor University will speak about Beet
 hoven's hearing challenges\, drawing information from his recently publis
 hed book by the University of Chicago\, "Hearing Beethoven: A Story Of Mu
 sical Loss And Discovery" (2018).\n\n\n The following information comes f
 rom the book's website maintained by the University of Chicago: "That Bee
 thoven continued to play and compose for more than a decade after he lost
  his hearing is often seen as an act of superhuman heroism. But the truth
  is that Beethoven’s response to his deafness was entirely human. And by 
 demystifying what he did\, we can learn a great deal about Beethoven’s mu
 sic. Perhaps no one is better positioned to help us do so than Robin Wall
 ace\, who not only has dedicated his life to the music of Beethoven but a
 lso has close personal experience with deafness. One day\, at the age of 
 forty-four\, Wallace’s late wife\, Barbara\, found she couldn’t hear out 
 of her right ear—the result of radiation administered to treat a brain tu
 mor early in life. Three years later\, she lost hearing in her left ear a
 s well. Over the eight and a half years that remained of her life\, despi
 te receiving a cochlear implant\, Barbara didn’t overcome her deafness or
  ever function again like a hearing person."
