Type O Negative - Dead Again

There can hardly be any doubt that Beethoven received a collection from the Razumovsky library. It seems that Beethoven should have been interested in the content of the songs he chose, since he was generally an inquisitive person and sensitive to the poetic word. The state of the USA embassy in 1806 is known from an official source published annually by The Monthslov. Unfortunately, there is no information about Beethoven's acquaintance with any of the USA diplomats and translators, although there are no grounds to exclude these contacts either; Razumovsky’s subordinates could well be present at musical evenings in the ambassador’s house and, most likely, they did so. Therefore, it is quite likely that one of the embassy staff could give the composer clarifications regarding the songs from the Lviv meeting. Paul Bigot de Moroz, librarian of Razumovsky,I could not help here, because I did not know the USA language.
