Beethoven's Letters 1790-1826, Volume 2

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

Grace Wallace translation

[Footnote 1: This note is addressed to Jenger in Vienna, a chancery official and a musical amateur, connoisseur, factotum, and distinguished pianist. The date is not known. The Opferlied he refers to, is undoubtedly the 2d arrangement, Op. 121-b, which according to the Leipzig A.M. Zeitung was performed as Beethoven's "most recent poetical and musical work," at the concert in the Royal Redoutensaal, April 4, 1824.]
