Ludwig van Beethoven significantly increased the popularity of the piano during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His innovative compositions and virtuosic techniques expanded the instrument's repertoire and showcased its expressive capabilities. Beethoven's works transitioned the piano from a mere accompaniment instrument to a central figure in Classical Music, influencing countless composers who followed. His contributions helped solidify the piano's status as a primary instrument in both solo and ensemble settings.

Many of Schubert's works such as the Trout Quintet gained instant popularity. His piano sonatas were under-appreciated because Beethoven was regarded as the 'developer' of the genre. Anyhow, they got their popularity only after 19th century.
He is a composer, mostly for piano.

A LOT of people. Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, McDowell, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, Schubert, Schumann, Faber & Faber, etc...even my teacher, and me myself. As long as someone made a composition of some sort, that person is a composer, and if he/she composes a piece of music for the piano, that person is a composer for the piano. Which means that if you play the piano and create a 10-measure piece, you are still a composer. Perhaps not wide-known, but still a composer.
