Letter penned by Beethoven uncovered in Germany

A letter written by composer Ludwig van Beethoven has emerged in Germany after being left in a will.

Experts were already aware of the 1823 letter's existence, but say it is of historic value.

Broadcaster John Suchet, who has written books on Beethoven, said finding the letter was "hugely significant"....
