半夜里给人从床上拖起来上音乐课是一种什么滋味?这正是可怜的小贝多芬的遭遇,而这个粗俗而冷酷的教师,竟是贝多芬自己的父亲。父亲是个音乐家固然是好事,但不幸的是:贝多芬的父亲是个傻瓜,尤其糟糕的是,他还是个酒鬼。他是莱茵河畔波恩附近的科隆城选侯的唱诗班的一个歌手。 What is the taste of music lessons in the middle of the night when people are dragged from their beds? This is what happened to the poor little Beethoven, a vulgar and ruthless teacher who was actually Beethoven’s own father. His father is a musician is a good thing, but unfortunately: Beethoven’s father is a fool, in particular, he is an alcoholic. He is a singer of the Choir of Cologne City, near Bonn, on the Rhine.
