Inspired by Beethoven?

I see the 'Mandolin for Dummies' book was cited, but do we have any sources to confirm specifically that the melody here was "derived" or "inspired" by the Beethovenian theme? I don't deny the obvious musical similarity -- that was what led me to this and the Flintstones pages in the first place. But are we certain the theme here can be directly tied to Beethoven's work, rather than the resemblance being somehow inadvertent? Are there any quotes from the original composer indicating the 'Tempest' Sonata movement 2 as a source of inspiration? PublicolaMinor (talk) 03:52, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
