Beethoven's Letters 1790-1826, Volume 2

Note 1 — THIRD PART LIFE'S TROUBLES AND CLOSE. 1823 TO 1827.

Grace Wallace translation

[Footnote 1: Beethoven had apartments in a summer residence of Baron Pronay's on his beautiful property at Hetzendorf. Suddenly, however, the maestro, deeply immersed in the Ninth Symphony, was no longer satisfied with this abode, because "the Baron would persist in making him profound bows every time that he met him." So, with the help of Schindler and Frau Schnaps, he removed to Baden in August, 1823.]
