The doodle asks you to help Ludwig Van recover his sheet music and get it to the concert hall while being foiled by a conspiracy of horses, apparently. smiley - laugh

smiley - rofl This one's lovely, since the reward is a song. And for once, I don't feel dumb - all you have to do is put the sheet music back together, easy if you can read it. smiley - musicalnote

Actually, I found it traumatic. It should have come with a trigger warning. I had flashbacks to the intermural choral competition I was in in 8th grade. Part of the competition was individual sight reading and I had never been taught to properly sight read.

Ugh, I can still hear the dissonant sounds of my pubescent voice cracking as it struggled to find a key. smiley - headhurts


smiley - laugh

I saw it earlier, but when I clicked on it I was just taken to a google search of old Ludwig.

By the way, I was in his house the other day. May be going there more often now son No 2 lives in Bonn.

Oh, I remember that house. (I lived in Bonn for a year.) Is the big bust still in the room where he was born? smiley - bigeyes

Take some pictures and send them to the Artists - I'll bet there are Guide Entries where they could use them. smiley - smiley

Ah, yet another writer whose works in the public domain DisneyCorp plundered while lobbying to have copyright law extended further and further such that very few works have entered the public domain in decades.

Today in Germany we have one of the quota women. Haven't got time to dig out the Google link for it, perhaps someone else will oblige. The doodle is quite nice, actually.
