About this listen

Did you ever wonder:
  • What kind of world Beethoven was born into?
  • What did he think about the French Revolution?
  • Did he ever find love? and
  • What caused him to go deaf at such a tragically early age?
Find the answers to these and many more questions about the most revolutionary musician of his time in Classical Giants: Beethoven.

Written by a children’s author and mother of four in response to the lack of accessible but informative music history books on the market, Classical Giants brings to life with fascinating anecdotes and witty illustrations the most famous composers in history, introducing them to children as real characters who lived and breathed on a real historical timeline.

Take your child on a journey of discovery to learn not only what Beethoven was like as a person but also what made him tick: what were his struggles and his joys; what were the events that shaped his world; what was important to him, what influenced him and what inspired him to create his greatest masterpieces.

“This brilliantly entertaining and informative addition to children’s non-fiction contains a myriad of cross-curricular learning opportunities for the classroom and beyond. English, Music, History, Art, Maths and Science can be taught through this book, making it ideal as the beating heart of an exciting and creative Topic web of learning activities. Useful for assemblies too and Social and Emotional learning, adults will enjoy it just as much as children.”

Kathryn Creed, retired Assistant Headteacher and Independent Schools Inspectorate Team Inspector.
