Lock of hair holds key to Beethoven’s death, researcher believes

Those Stanley brothers, theysure do clean up nice.

There they were last Septem-ber, all duded up and cruising

down Hollywood Boulevard in a stretchlimousine on the way to the Creative ArtsEmmy Awards ceremonies. Across thestreet from Grauman’s Chinese Theatrewas a billboard, bigger than life, showingcamera-toting Todd Stanley dangling overthe roiling sea at the end of a long crane.

“Discovery Channel,” the billboardread. “Discover what it takes to get theshot.”

What Doug and Todd Stanley havediscovered after four years as producersand cameramen on “Deadliest Catch,” areality show about Alaska crab fisher-

men toiling in a harsh milieu, is this: Thefive backbreaking months they spend atsea each year not only brings in a steadypaycheck and sates their thrill-seekingneeds, it also garners them Emmy nomi-nations – this year and last – and enablesthem to hobnob with celebrities.

But lest you think Doug, who lives inAuburn, and Todd, from Lotus, havegone all Hollywood on us, the brothersand other “Catch” crew exited the limothat night and strolled the red carpetwearing pungent, orange deep-sea slick-ers over their tuxedos.

SAN JOSE – It reads like the plot of a“CSI” episode: A forensic scientistshoots a laser beam into a lock of

hair for clues into a man’s untimelydeath.

But this wasn’t just any lock of hair.It belonged to Ludwig van Beethoven.And lately, all roads leading from

Beethoven’s locks of hair to a forensicslab in Vienna, Austria, run straightthrough San Jose.

Beethoven? San Jose?As unlikely as that pairing sounds, San

Jose is where the Ira F. Brilliant Center forBeethoven Studies is located – and where422 strands of Beethoven’s hair and twopieces of his skull are stashed.

Since 1983, when a Phoenix real estatedeveloper named Ira Brilliant donated hiscollection of 75 first editions of

Beethoven’s music to San Jose State Uni-versity, the center has been the major U.S.research center for all things Beethoven.

And lately, it has been dabbling inforensics with the publication last monthof research results from Vienna con-ducted on strands of Beethoven’s hair.

That research may go a long way toidentifying what hastened Beethoven’sdeath at age 56 as he was on the verge offinishing a string quintet and working onhis 10th symphony.

More important, the research maysomeday help in identifying the cause ofBeethoven’s deafness.

Although the center houses rare texts,first editions and four Beethoven-erakeyboards, it is the silvery brown locks ofhair that captivate visitors there – and stircontroversy in the form of research.

“What strikes people the most whenthey see the locks of hair is that they arein the presence of the remains ofBeethoven’s actual body,” said William

Meredith, director of the center and aBeethoven scholar.

The controversy comes by way of newfindings from Dr. Christian Reiter, a foren-sic scientist who works at the MedicalUniversity of Vienna. Those results werepublished last month in the center’sBeethoven Journal.

In the journal, Reiter states thatBeethoven’s death was accelerated by aseries of weekly visits to Dr. AndreasWawruch, a well-meaning Viennesedoctor. Beethoven sought Wawruch’sservices in early 1827 after contracting apneumonia-like infection that caused hisabdomen to swell. After his abdomen wasperforated to reduce the swelling,Wawruch administered an antibioticcomposed of lead salts into the punctures.

Reiter’s claim was the result of a pro-cess wherein a micro-thin laser beam was

“The decision to namemy novel ‘The Sus-pect’ as One Book

Sacramento’s choice marks ahighlight in my career,” writerJohn Lescroart e-mailed fromMaui, where he recently vaca-tioned.

“I’m humbled to be in thecompany of past recipients ofthis honor, and am lookingforward to appearing for TheBee Book Club.”

Lescroart was referring to thethird annual One Book Sacra-mento: Connecting Our Commu-nities program, sponsored by theSacramento Public Library andthe Library Foundation, and aspecial edition of The Bee BookClub to be held Oct. 4.

One Book asks everyone toread the same book and to partic-ipate in numerous related liter-ary events that will happenonline and at library branches,schools and other venues duringOctober.

“The Suspect” is Lescroart’s18th legal thriller. He is a NewYork Times best-selling authorwho lives near Davis.

“The library and the founda-tion are tremendous organiza-tions whose vital mission is tosupport literacy and the love ofreading,” Lescroart added.

“ ‘The Suspect’ contains anumber of themes appropriatefor discussion among readers ofall age groups, and I look for-ward to having an exchangewith readers at one of Sacramen-to’s most dynamic public pro-grams.”

Library director Anne MarieGold said, “ ‘The Suspect’ is amasterful novel of family se-

Ludwig van Beethoven died in1827 at 56. The lead in his hairshows his doctor inadvertentlypoisoned him, a scientist says.

shot into two strands of Beethoven’shair to vaporize it. The resulting vaporwas then analyzed with a mass spec-trograph for traces of heavy metals.This new method allows a detailed lookat what was being introduced intoBeethoven’s body in the last 111 days ofhis life.

That’s because hair acts like a biologi-cal chronometer. The accumulation ofmetals in the human body appears asmicroscopic markers, or “spikes,” asthe hair grows out from the root.

In Beethoven’s last 111 days, a pat-tern of elevated lead spikes appears.Those, Reiter contends, correspondwith the dates of the “lead salt” treat-ments by Wawruch.

“Those lead salts were commonlyused at the time for medical purposes,as a remedy for pneumonia,” Reitersaid.

That type of treatment was consid-ered risky, very much like certain radio-logical and chemotherapy treatmentsare today.

“The therapeutic toxicity was wellknown, but the alternatives were moredreaded,” he said.

If Reiter’s findings are conclusive, itappears that Beethoven’s fate wasdoomed by nothing more than themedical shortcomings of his physician.

The provenance of the hair datesto 1827 when 15-year-old Ferdi-nand Hiller’s music teacher

brought him to visit Beethoven threetimes before the composer’s death.Hiller cut off a lock of the composer’shair on his last visit – a not-too-unusualact given Beethoven’s fame and the

popularity of hair lockets in Europe atthe time.

The locks were secretly handed downfrom generation to generation of theHiller family. They surfaced first in1943 when they were given to a Danishdoctor as payment for medical treat-ment for Jews escaping the clutches ofthe Nazis during World War II.

The locks resurfaced in 1984 in Lon-don, when they appeared for auction atSotheby’s.

Four members of the AmericanBeethoven Society purchased the 582

strands of hair for $7,300. Of the 582strands, 422 were offered to be housedat the center in San Jose. They are nowkept in a black oval locket. The remain-ing hairs, 160 of them, belong to Dr.Alfredo Guevara, a urologist from Ari-zona who made the largest contributionto the Sotheby’s purchase. Guevara hasstipulated that those strands are to beset aside for research purposes.

Those research purposes honorBeethoven’s “Heilgenstadt Testament,”a document that he wrote 25 yearsbefore his death. That testament noted

Beethoven’s desire that posterity findthe cause of his deafness. It triggered anautopsy on his body and also the volu-minous gathering of his long and wavylocks of hair. It is certain thatBeethoven had no idea that his testa-ment would result in pieces of his bodybeing kept in several locations spreadaround the world.

“It’s possible that by the timeBeethoven was lying in state, in hisapartment, that all of the hair that peo-ple could see was cut off his head,”Meredith said.

Reiter’s research piggybacks workdone on other strands of hair and piecesof Beethoven’s skull in 2000 at the U.S.Department of Energy’s particle acceler-ator at the Argonne lab in Illinois. Thatresearch established that Beethovenhad extremely high levels of lead in hisbody at the time of his death – as muchas 80 times the normal load.

Dr. Bill Walsh was in charge oftesting Beethoven’s skull frag-ments at the particle accelera-

tor. He established that the lead inBeethoven’s bones had accumulatedover many years.

“This is important new information,”said Walsh, who nonetheless ap-proaches Reiter’s findings with caution.

“I agree that Dr. Wawruch’s medi-cines may have caused the spikes oflead concentration in Beethoven’shair,” Walsh said. “However, there’s noway to determine whether the lead mayhave been in the medicines themselves,or whether the medicines caused anincreased rate of departure of ‘old’lead.”

Elevated lead contents also could

have come from other sources, Walshsaid. Beethoven was known to be fondof sweet wines, whose acidity often wascut by unscrupulous winemakers byintroducing lead as a sweetener.

Also, it was not uncommon for physi-cians to prescribe lead pills for themany kinds of ailments that afflictedBeethoven throughout his life, theworst of which was chronic and debili-tating colic.

The actual cause of Beethoven’sdeath and the reason for his deafnessmay never be completely identified,despite advances in forensic technolo-gy.

“Science has advanced so much sinceBeethoven’s day that we can say nowthat doctors at the time were not evenaware what was killing him,” Meredithsaid.
