The music author Basil Lam, refers to the ‘unsurpassable achievements’ of Beethoven’s final maturity, and argues that there is a sense in which one feels that after them he had nothing else to say – although in fact he was already at work on a tenth symphony when he died. His one-time friend, the poet and dramatist Goethe said of him ‘never have I met an artist more resolutely concentrated, more energetic, or of deeper sincerity’. Lam in the second of two booklets he wrote in the BBC Music Guides series published in 1975, says of this work that it speaks of pain endured without the mitigation of hope or indignation.
