How many symphonies did Beethoven write before he was deaf?
Music is produced by vibrations, and deaf people can still feel different vibrations. The story is told that Beethoven cut off the legs of the piano so he could hear the vibrations of the piano. This is perhaps not necessarily true, as many pianos of the time were made with removable legs so they could be carried into the various courts of the kings and emperors for performances. Regardless, by laying the piano flat on the ground, Beethoven could distinguish the vibrations and harmonies. Bear in mind that most of us can hear music in our heads - sometimes it can be a problem! An experienced musician does it all the time and it's not difficult for a professional composer to imagine the music and write it down. It isn't strictly necessary for a composer to use an instrument while composing, even though many like to do so. For a composer as brilliant as Beethoven, with symphonies as complex as those he composed, hearing the music in his head would have been no difficulty whatsoever.
