There is no widely recognized historical record of an assistant to Beethoven named Anna Holz. Beethoven did have several assistants and students during his lifetime, such as Anton Schindler and Carl Czerny, but Anna Holz does not appear to be among them. If she existed, her contributions might not have been documented or have been overshadowed by those of more prominent figures in Beethoven's life.
I'm pretty sure Anna Holz was real.
No. This is an artistic fabrication by the director of the movie. It is in fact true that Ludwig van Beethoven had many various people in his life to help him throughout his career, but many if not all are unidentified.
No, she was wholly invented by the script-writers for Copying Beethoven. But aspects of the story are based on fact.
Wolfgang Holz died on June 12, 2009, in Berlin, Germany.
Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Inc.Type Joint ventureFounded August 5, 2004Headquarters New York City, USA Key peopleAndrew Lack - Chairman of the Board of DirectorsRolf Schmidt-Holtz - Chief Executive OfficerTim Bowen - Chief Operating OfficerKevin Kelleher - Executive Vice President/Chief Financial OfficerIndustry Music & EntertainmentProducts Music & EntertainmentParent Sony Corporation (50%)Bertelsmann AG (50%)Website www.sonybmg.com Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Inc. is the result of a 50/50 joint venture between Sony Music Entertainment (part of Sony) and BMG Entertainment (part of Bertelsmann) completed on August 5, 2004. It is one of the Big Four music companies, and includes ownership and distribution of recording labels such as Arista Records, Columbia Records, Epic Records, J Records, RCA Victor Records, RCA Records, Legacy Recordings, Sonic Wave America, and others. Financial analysts covering the merger anticipated that up to 2000 jobs could be cut as a result, saving Sony BMG approximately $350 million annually. The company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is Rolf Schmidt-Holtz, who succeeded Andrew Lack on February 10, 2006. In the first half of 2005, the company's share of new releases in the United States (US) declined from 33% to 26% according to Nielsen SoundScan. This, and Lack's negotiation of what some called an "ill-conceived" deal with Bruce Springsteen led to Bertelsmann informing Sony that it would not renew Lack's contract. Lack now holds the position of Chairman of the Board, the position formerly occupied by Schmidt-Holz. The company recently signed a content deal with the popular video sharing community YouTube.http://www.answers.com/topic/sony-bmg Sony Records is a label under Columbia Records and Columbia Records is owned by Sony BMG.
