Pay attention to this young man, for he will make a noise in the world some day, (1907)
Pay attention to this young man, for he will make a noise in the world some day, (1907). The teenage Beethoven visits Mozart in Vienna: Beethoven...improvised so finely - allowing his feelings to flow into the music as he went on - that a bystander could not fail to have been struck by the change which came over Mozarts face as he listened. The abstracted look gave place to one of pure astonishment...he exclaimed, Pay attention to this young man, for he will make a noise in the world some day. Beethoven, meanwhile, played on and on, lost in the intricate melodies which he was weaving out of the single thread, until the touch of Mozarts hand upon his shoulder recalled him to earth to hear the masters praises sounding in his ear. An episode from the life of German composer Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). From " Story-Lives of Great Musicians", by F.J. Rowbotham. [Wells Gardner, Darton & Co. Ltd, London, 1907]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in music history, depicting the young Ludwig van Beethoven visiting Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Vienna. The image portrays Beethoven as a teenager, full of potential and talent that would soon shake the world. As he played his improvised melodies with finesse, an onlooker could not help but notice the transformation on Mozart's face – from deep concentration to pure astonishment. In awe of Beethoven's musical prowess, Mozart exclaimed to those around him, "Pay attention to this young man, for he will make a noise in the world some day". Undeterred by the praise and lost in his own intricate melodies woven from a single thread of inspiration, Beethoven continued playing until Mozart gently touched his shoulder. This gesture brought him back to reality and allowed him to hear firsthand the master's praises resonating in his ear. This episode showcases an extraordinary encounter between two legendary composers who left an indelible mark on classical music. It serves as a testament to Beethoven's prodigious talent and foreshadows the immense impact he would have on future generations through his groundbreaking compositions. Preserved within this print is not only a visual representation of their meeting but also an embodiment of their shared passion for music that transcends time itself.
