What the hell has Beethoven to do with the English pop singer Robbie Williams? The German telecommunications company Deutsche Telekom said in a press release that they plan to have a concert with this man for Beethoven’s 250th birthday. But that’s not all.
Lang Lang, a Chinese pianist who has still to prove that he is able to play Beethoven, therefore prefers joining American DJ Steve Aoki to « meld classical and electronic music at Deutsche Telekom’s Berlin Representative Office. In cooperation with Deutsche Grammophon, Deutsche Telekom will present the first Electronic Dance Beethoven Celebration ». Disgusting! Maybe, after all, it was good that the organizers in Bonn disfigured the composer’s name into BTHVN, so that all this sh.. hasn’t anything to do with the real Beethoven.
