Description
"In a historic manor, Scott Yoo makes a landmark recording, centered around Beethoven's famous Ghost Trio. This summons Beethoven's ghost, who's spent the afterlife analyzing his output ... trailed by the ghost of Sigmund Freud, who's come to analyze him. Based on the most current research, this witty, ingenious mix of ghost story and documentary reveals the composer as you've never known him before."--Back of container
