Lost Beethoven manuscript found
Three months ago, an 80-page manuscript of Beethoven's 1826 work-in-progress Gross Fuge in B flat major for piano duet was found in a Philadelphia seminary after being lost for more than a century. It will be auctioned by Sotheby's this December in London, and is estimated to fetch up to $2.6 million. (A photo essay can be found here, and additional reporting on the manuscript's discovery here [AP] and here [AFP].)
