ABOUT THE ALBUM


"Beethoven on Speed" is a 1990 album by The Great Kat, known for her high-speed, shred-guitar adaptations of classical music mixed with thrash metal. The album blends classical compositions-particularly works by Beethoven, Chopin, Paganini, and other virtuosos-with aggressive metal instrumentation. The track "Beethoven On Speed" is inspired by Beethoven's 5th Symphony, "Flight Of The Bumblebee" is based on Rimsky-Korsakov's Piece, "Funeral March" is inspired by Chopin's "Marche Funèbre" and "Pag's Revenge" is based on Paganini's "Caprice No. 24." The album is famous for it's extreme speed, technical proficiency, and the theatrical persona of The Great Kat, who claims to be a reincarnation of Beethoven. It has a cult following among shred and neoclassical metal fans.
