Beethoven was not dependent on any sovereign, only committed to his own work. But is it really true that he subordinated his entire life to his music? Was his deafness really an obstacle or rather the trigger to his outstanding talent? How did Beethoven become hero, myth and legend? This docuseries looks into his piano sonatas as the key to these and many more questions as the genre accompanied Beethoven from his beginnings and the sonatas give - like a “journal intime” - deep insight into his emotions and thinking. A 6x30’ documentary series with the Dutch biographer Jan Caeyers (“Beethoven”), Beethoven expert & pianist Rudolf Buchbinder and actor Uwe Bohm. A production of 3B for ZDF/3sat in coproduction with Unitel.
