Not only do we learn of the culture, but of the boon to our own lives in it. It's satisfying, to say the least, to have found some spirits kindred in at least this respect. Stan

I've never missed a chance to hear the 9th when it was performed anywhere near me. I've heard in in the Lincoln Center and in Washington. Every time I choke up for its beauty. It simply is one of the greatest pieces of music ever written. I've told my wife many a time that if I should lie on my deathbed I'd like to hear the 9th and I'll go peacefully and happy. I'm glad others get the same emotional high as I do from this music. Sometimes I think there must be something wrong with me to get so emotional just from music.

Stan: The Choral Finale to Beethoven's Ninth is one of my most favorite pieces of music. I was privilieged once, almost 40 years ago, to sing it with the full Dayton (Ohio) Philharmonic behind us. It ranks as one of the highlight musical ezperiences of my singing career. Upon finishing, there was such a transport of emotion that I felt I'd transcended Earth itself. It is, truly, a very moving piece of poetry; set to music of Beethoven it's pure Heaven. Dave Ross Denver

Greetings.... I just heard that there were police register books in Germany re citizens -- does anyone here know the details regarding this and if they were used in the early 1900's? My grandmother was born in Memmingen, Bavaria--- migrated to Switzerland where she worked and married and bore 2 children (bef. 1910). She eventually divorced and came to the US in 1912 where she married the grandfather that I knew (upon arrival -- he had come earlier and set up job and home).. When I went to Memmingen there was a notation on her record that in 1912 the police were looking for her and also her brother (my grandmother was already in the States for 9 months). Could this be related to the police registration of citizen comings and goings -- or this wasn't happening in 1912? If anyone knows I'd appreciate a response. Thank you Claire
