Walking with Beethoven



German artist 1800s Joseph Koch - one of the early 1800s artists who had a new respect 
for the beauty and wildness of nature.

Beethoven's Sixth Symphony, also known as the Pastoral, 
depicts the peaceful countryside which he loved.

Our glorious foreshores, including Balmoral, provide many peaceful places
to walk and enjoy nature.
I wonder what would Beethoven would have called a symphony depicting our foreshores?
