This is an organ arrangement of Beethoven's Eroica Variations. Based on a theme from the Eroica symphony, it actually allows us to see into the mind of Beethoven. It starts by variations on just the bass line, and then the 15 main variations take us on a musical journey that includes humorous variations, a canon in the manner of Clementi, a composer whom Beethoven particularly liked and admired, then a variation that's like a Beethoven slow movement, and finally a three part fugue in the manner of Bach, before a finale grandiose statement of the theme.

Dawson was born and raised in Pictou, Nova Scotia, where the many sandstone and coal formations provided fertile ground for his first scientific explorations, which culminated in the publication of Acadian Geology. He became principal of McGill University in 1855 and over the next forty years worked unceasingly to transform McGill from a "tiny, poverty-stricken provincial school" into a scientific institution of the highest rank. He was the only person to hold the presidency of both the American Association for the Advancement of Science and its British equivalent. Dawson's energetic promotion of scientific institutions in Canada remains one of his most enduring legacies, particularly his role in creating the Royal Society of Canada. Drawing on Dawson's correspondence and personal papers, Sheets-Pyenson paints an intimate portrait of a pivotal figure in Canada's scientific heritage and a proper Victorian gentleman whose pious Presbyterianism, missionary zeal, and unwavering belief in the light of knowledge drove him on a quest to conquer ignorance, eradicate prejudice, and vanquish bigotry.
