Sonata Mulattica
The son of a white woman and an ?African Prince,? George Polgreen Bridgetower (1780?1860) travels to Vienna to meet ?bad-boy? genius Ludwig van Beethoven. The great composer\'s subsequent sonata is originally dedicated to the young mulatto, but George, exuberant with acclaim, offends Beethoven over a woman. From this crucial encounter evolves a grandiose yet melancholy poetic tale. A New Yorker\'s A Year\'s Reading; Booklist Editors Choice Award.
