The Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor for solo piano is one of Beethovens most famous and popular compositions. It score was published 40 years after Beethovens death, but the original script was dated April 27th 1810. The original is today lost, which have led to several debates about exactly how the original script went. It is also not known who "Elise" was, but one theory was that the original title was "Fur Therese" and that the song was written for Therese Malfatti, a friend of Beethoven. Another theory is that is was written for Elisabeth Röckel, a soprano singer Beethoven knew. You can download the song here if you want to listen to it: Fur Elise
