Ludwig Van Beethoven was born in 1770 in Bonn, Germany. He died in Vienna in 1827
at the age of 56
He studied violin and piano when he was only five years old, and when he was
he eight he was giving public concerts.
His mother died when he was 16 years old. Beethoven had to take over and
act as mother and father to his two little brothers.
After the death of his father in 1792, Beethoven decided to travel to Vienna with his
his brothers to earn a living as a musician.
Everything went well at first. He made influential friends among the aristocracy,
and he was soon in demand as a pianist and fashion teacher. However, l
He was not an easy person to work with, because he was very independent and
He didn't much care for rules and manners and he could often be very rude,
However, those first years in Vienna were a happy time.
In 1798, when he was only 28 years old, he began to lose his hearing. At first, he
He couldn't tell anyone, not even his best friends, about his tragedy. At the end of 1802,
his hearing loss was severe.
At first he despaired, but then he decided to focus more than ever on
composition. He was completely deaf during the last years of his life, but
he continued composing. He never heard some of the best music from him.
Examples of the music he wrote are: The Third Symphony, the Opera Fidelio.
The Ninth Symphony and the Missa Solemnis (Solemn Mass) which includes a
prayer for deliverance from the horrors of war.
In these later string quartets and piano sonatas, Beethoven continued to express
the musical vision of him.
