Beethoven's Symphony No 3 the Eroica symphony was originally dedicated to whom?
I think it's because Eroica means Heroic, and he wanted it to be called Heroic symphony in honor of Napoleon Bonaparte, but later on he erased the dedication to Bonaparte but kept the name.
What were Beethoven's most famous pieces?
This is subjective and a matter of opinion as there are many famous pieces by Beethoven. Much of his music is recognisable by melody, even though people may not be familiar with the name.Among Beethoven's piano sonatas, one would consider the Pathétique, Moonlight, Waldstein and Appassionata to be the most famous.Beethoven's 9 symphonies are all brilliant, but perhaps the better known ones are the "Eroica" (his third symphony), the rich and penetrating Fifth Symphony (Symphony No. 5 in C minor), and the Ninth Symphony (Symphony No. 9 in D minor) which, unlike preceding symphonies, actually made use of choral parts in the well-known "Ode to Joy".Beethoven also wrote a short, romantic composition, the Bagatelle in A minor, that became known as "Für Elise". It was written in April 1810 for Therese Malfatti, whom Beethoven was considering marrying at that time - a marriage which never eventuated.Equally famous are his one and only opera, 'Fidelio' and the 'Archduke Trio', or Piano Trio no.7.There are far too many exceptional pieces by Beethoven to be able to say which is the "best".For some, Beethoven's most famous piece of music is the fourth movement of the Ninth Symphony. The reasoning behind this answer is its popularity in the movie industry in addition to its inclusion on scores of hymnals as the tune paired with the text "Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee." It is widely regarded as the finest symphonic composition of all time, and Beethoven was completely deaf when he wrote it.
Who was the man that eroica dedicated to the memory of a great man?
Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 (which is what I assume you're referring to) was intended to be dedicated to Napoleon Bonaparte (and was originally scheduled to be called "Bonaparte"), but the composer became disgusted when Napoleon declared himself Emperor of the French. (The fact that his patrons wouldn't have been terribly happy about it may have had some impact as well.)Nevertheless, it's clear from Beethoven's letters that he had originally written it in honor of Napoleon, and still regarded it that way at the time of Napoleon's death even though he had retitled it and given it an ambiguous dedication.The fact that it was dedicated to the memory of a great man might refer to Beethoven's attempt to dedicate it to Napoleon, the Hero of the Common People (whom Beethoven admired) as distinct from Napoleon I, Emperor of France (which made Beethoven think that Napoleon was just another tyrant).
Which symphony has Fur Elise in it?
None. It is neither part of a symphony, nor has it any connections to a symphony. Für Elise is a short, romantic composition, actually called the Bagatelle in A minor.The name Für Elise means "for Elise" in Beethoven's native language of German, but the piece was not written for a lady named Elise. It was actually written for one of his students, Therese Malfatti von Rohrenbach zu Dezza, whom he hoped to marry (but never did). It is believed that, due to Beethoven's illegible writing style, the title was misread by the publisher, and instead titled "For Elise" instead of "For Therese".

What is some popular music by Ludwig van Beethoven?
Among Beethoven's piano sonatas, one would consider the Pathétique, Moonlight, Waldstein and Appassionata to be the most poplar.Beethoven's 9 symphonies are all brilliant, but perhaps the better known ones are the "Eroica" (his third symphony), the rich and penetrating Fifth Symphony (Symphony No. 5 in C minor), and the Ninth Symphony (Symphony No. 9 in D minor) which, unlike preceding symphonies, actually made use of choral parts in the well-known "Ode to Joy".Beethoven also wrote a short, romantic composition, the Bagatelle in A minor, that became known as "Für Elise". It was written in April 1810 for Therese Malfatti, whom Beethoven was considering marrying at that time - a marriage which never eventuated.Equally famous are his one and only opera, 'Fidelio' and the 'Archduke Trio', or Piano Trio no.7.

What are 3 compositions that beethoven wrote?
"Important" is a subjective term that is best dealt with by considering which pieces are the most well-known, or famous.Among Beethoven's piano sonatas, one would consider the Pathétique, Moonlight, Waldstein and Appassionata to be the most famous.Beethoven's 9 symphonies are all brilliant, but perhaps the better known ones are the "Eroica" (his third symphony), the rich and penetrating Fifth Symphony (Symphony No. 5 in C minor), and the Ninth Symphony (Symphony No. 9 in D minor) which, unlike preceding symphonies, actually made use of choral parts in the well-known "Ode to Joy".Beethoven also wrote a short, romantic composition, the Bagatelle in A minor, that became known as "Für Elise".

Is the symphony Fur Elise about a dead girl?
To begin with, Für Elise is not a symphony, but a short, romantic composition for piano. Its proper name is the Bagatelle in A minor, but it became popularly known as Für Elise. It was written on 27 April 1810 for Therese Malfatti, a woman whom Beethoven hoped to marry, but never did. It is uncertain whether the name Elise was a nickname for Therese, or whether the publisher couldn't read Beethoven's handwriting.
