The arrival of an eccentric boarder turns a young boy's home upside-down. Ludwig van Beethoven has moved in upstairs! At first, the boy resents their new tenant, but slowly ten-year-old Christoph comes to understand the genius of the man, the torment of his deafness and the beauty of his music. Beethoven Lives Upstairs is pure family entertainment that captures a special friendship between a great composer and a young boy. Based in part on historical fact and featuring more than twenty-five beautifully-performed excerpts of Beethoven's best-loved works. - Container.
