Beethoven Gesamtausgabe: The Beethoven "Gesamtausgabe" is the first collected edition of the works of Ludwig van Beethoven.  Its full title is "Ludwig van Beethovens Werke: vollständige kritisch durchgesehene überall berechtige Ausgabe" (which roughly translated means "Ludwig van Beethoven's Works: complete, critical, thoroughly revised, authorized edition").  It was published between 1862 and 1865, with a supplementary volume appearing in 1888.

Ludwig van (film): Ludwig van (full title: "Ludwig van: A report"; German: "Ludwig van: ein Bericht") is a black-and-white German film by Mauricio Kagel.  Filmed in 1969, it was first screened the following year.  The work was commissioned by Westdeutscher Rundfunk for the bicentennial celebrations of the birth of Ludwig van Beethoven in 1970.  The film examines the reception of the composer and his works and how he has become a consumer product of the culture industry.  The soundtrack is an arrangement of fragments of Beethoven's works, modified as if heard by the deaf composer himself; it is distinct from Kagel's 1970 composition "Ludwig van".  Prominent contemporary artists including Dieter Roth, Stefan Wewerka (), Robert Filliou, and Joseph Beuys were involved in the design.  According to "Gramophone", "at first it’s a laugh a minute ... then Kagel's film turns dark".

Immortal Beloved (film): Immortal Beloved is a 1994 film about the life of composer Ludwig van Beethoven (played by Gary Oldman).  The story follows Beethoven's secretary and first biographer Anton Schindler (Jeroen Krabbé) as he attempts to ascertain the true identity of the "Unsterbliche Geliebte" (Immortal Beloved) addressed in three letters found in the late composer's private papers.  Schindler journeys throughout the Austrian Empire interviewing women who might be potential candidates as well as through Beethoven's own tumultuous life.

Josephine Brunsvik: Josephine Brunsvik or Countess Jozefina Brunszvik de Korompa (Hungarian: "Brunszvik Jozefina" ; 28 March 1779 – 31 March 1821) was probably the most important woman in the life of Ludwig van Beethoven, as documented by at least 15 love letters he wrote her where he called her his "only beloved", being "eternally devoted" to her and "forever faithful”.  Several musicologists consider her to be the most likely recipient of the mysterious "Letter to the Immortal Beloved".

Immortal Beloved: The Immortal Beloved (German "Unsterbliche Geliebte") is the mysterious addressee of a love letter which composer Ludwig van Beethoven wrote on 6–7 July 1812 in Teplitz.  The entire letter is written on 10 small pages, in Beethoven's rather inconsistent handwriting.  The apparently unsent letter was found in the composer's estate after his death, after which it remained in the hands of Anton Schindler until his death, was subsequently willed to his sister, and was sold by her in 1880 to the Berlin State Library, where it remains today.  The letter is written in pencil and consists of three parts.
