Many people world wide listen to classical music. The classical compositions are a welcomed change of pace from the popular music of today. Of course there is no language barrier to classical music. Thus many people still listen to the composers of classical music such as Mozart and Beethoven.

If you mean Beethoven, the componist, he died in his 57.
Judged by a poll conducted each year by one radio station known to me, the Symphony No. 9 "Choral" is often the most popular classical work of music in the entire repertoire. Even if the list varies from year to year, this remains one of the top five and still higher than any other work by Beethoven.
1. The Romantic era produced many more composers music that is still popular today. 2. It started in 1820 and ended in 1900. 3. Beethoven was one of the most popular composers then.

Because Beethoven is one of the greatest composers and musicians that ever lived and because his scores were among the best of that time that he lived in and they are still remembered today as old classics.
Yes. Beethoven's mother, Maria, died in 1787, still married to Johann. He never remarried, and died in 1792.
