(That structure was the sonata form.) He's probably as vital today as he was in the early 19th century, if not moreso. His 9th symphony is still really meaningful and timely. For instance, it was blasted by students during the Tiananmen protests and a big part of the rejoicing when the Wall fell. Less profoundly, it's in Eva and shows up in other anime and films. A lot of Beethoven's music is still so great. If he had lived in more recent times, who knows? I tend to think he'd be Marilyn Mason. But then, I'm kinda addled ... Smile

I was saying that Andromeda's point doesn't really fit. If you took Beethoven and placed him in our time frame then he wouldn't be popular outside of followers of classical music. That's because it's been done and done well by him already. He took it to new levels and that is why he is so well known. If you put U2 like Andromeda said in his time they wouldn't be popular either if they played their music but that's because noone would of heard anything like it. Music progresses and you have to hear what has gone before to appreiciate it (hence why Beethoven is so popular). But if good musicians of today were born in Beethovens time then it is likely they would be pioneers of classical instead of rock or whatever because that was the music of the time.
