Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

What if you could hear a Beethoven masterpiece performed by none other than the legendary composer himself? Just what did he mean when he wrote one piece expressly for a mysterious person named Elise? The answer may just make you look at the artist in an entirely new light.

Time With Elise: A piano student’s time travel into the life of Beethoven is the wildly imaginative, heartfelt novel by Christina Schilling that recreates the days of the venerated composer through the vantage of a modern-day piano student. Annalisa Helfing, who is known as Elise, has a sudden accident, and soon finds that her life changes in ways that she could never have dreamed possible. She wakes up in a convent in the year 1802, and learns quickly that her ways differ greatly from the women there.

Life soon goes from increasingly curious to utterly incomprehensible when Elise is sent by the nuns to work as a housekeeper for musician Ludwig van Beethoven. As she discovers the composer’s own struggles as an artist, Elise embraces the real meaning of artistic commitment, and what it means to truly hear the music.
