Beethoven was a prodigiously gifted musician, and was far better-known as a pianist in 1790s Vienna than he was as a composer. That came later, but his fame in Vienna spread as a result of piano `contests`, notably the one where he dismissed the travelling virtuoso Daniel Steibelt, who vowed never to set foot in Vienna again! Beethoven was, arguably, from the mid 1790s, the finest pianist in Europe, and that is to say, for its time, the world.
