      Sorry Megan, already covered by Michael in Post # 95, Page 3. Even though we are now in Round 7, you must give another "Y" to allow us to correctly complete Round 6.

        Zod, General. Superman's arch-enemy from the planet Krypton.

        Sorry .... wrong thread!

        Zelter, Carl Friedrich. Berlin musician and friend of Goethe. He met Beethoven briefly in Vienna in 1819 and also had some later correspondence with him regarding the Missa Solemnis.
        Zod is good, but Zelter was already covered by me in Post #160, Page 4. Sorry Michael, another "Z" please so that we can finish off Round 6 with integrity.

          So, here we are in A-Z Beethoven Quiz Round 7.
          We're good for letters A - E. Before we can move onto the "F" we need Megan and Michael to provide new "Y" and "Z" respectively (left over from the previous round).
          All hold on the "F" please until Meegs and "M-M" M cough up.

                  Damn!

                  Kaspar Clemens Zumbusch was chosen as the sculptor of the bronze bust of Beethoven at Heiligenstadt.

                  This is getting harder!

                    Yellings and yowlings emitting from Beethoven when quarreling with his brothers.
                    Or even from B himself when he was walking down the street, note book in his pocket, yelling/singing waving his arms about.

                      Bravo to Michael and Megan for the "Y" and "Z" from Round 6.

                            "Gee Whiz!" Beethoven's reaction to the playing of the young Franz Liszt.

                            Nah, don't think that will get through!

                            Gebauer, Franz Xaver. Austrian music teacher and choirmaster who made several entries in B's conversation books.
