Classroom management is to be differentiated from discipline, which is the…

How is it possible to create some of the most beautiful pieces of music the world has ever heard and the creator not be able to hear it himself? The world of music has seen many memorable composers such as Bach, Mozart, Chopin, and Vivaldi, but none has as amazing a story as Ludwig Van Beethoven. “His life played out like one of his beautiful symphonies, with unimaginable highs, lows, victories, and defeats,” (Viegas 5).

In order to determine the substance of a piece of music, one must take a critical look at the work and the message therein.
