1770-182;
Ludwig van Beethoven was born in 1770. He grew up surrounded by
‘music, a8 both his father and grandfather were local musicians. He became
successful both asa pianist and as a composer. Besthoven began to go deaf
in 1799, but he continued to write powerful pieces of music. Often his anger
at his deafness showed in his music. At other times, another side of him
showed in his lowing melodies. Beethoven was a. popular composer. The
day he died in 1827 was so sad for the people that schools closed forthe
day, and the military was called out to control the public. Ode 10 Joy is the
famous theme from the final movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
