Audience The audience, for the most part, seemed to be made up of college students attending for the same reasons as myself. However, there were some audience members who are part of older age groups in the audience. They were there only seeking a good performance and a great time.

Beethoven: Actually, during my years as a pianist I lost my mother, and later on my brother, Kaspar. After Kaspars death I sought after custody of his son, Karl.

I would definitely recommend attending to anyone, and supporting the other students at ISU.
