  • Brahms’s First Symphony… or Beethoven’s Tenth?
    2025/07/07

    Brahms took nearly 20 years to finish his First Symphony—and the result? Mixed reviews, shady nicknames, and a melody that suspiciously echoes Beethoven’s Ode to Joy. In this episode, we dig into the myths, the legacy pressure, and why Brahms wasn’t copying the past—he was fighting it. Get ready for petty quotes, musical ghosts, and the ultimate “not your Beethoven” moment.

  • Beethoven’s Ghost and the Fight for His Legacy
    2025/05/26

    Why were 19th-century composers so obsessed with proving they were Beethoven’s heir?
    In this episode, we dive into the legacy he left behind — and the dramatic, sometimes ridiculous things composers did to claim it.
    Schumann followed the rules, Liszt told a maybe-made-up childhood story, and Wagner? He wrote Beethoven fanfiction.
    Genius composers? Definitely.
    But maybe even better at branding.
