German classical music composer Ludwig van Beethoven is often considered one of the bridge composers, and the evolution of the classical music period into the romantic era can be seen in his many compositions. Living and working primarily in Vienna, Austria during his life Beethoven is often considered one of the greatest composers in history, producing work even after a devastating hearing loss. His catalogue of musical work has inspired and intimidated composers that came after him.

Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany on December 16, 1770, although his birthday is often celebrated on December 17, the day of his baptism. Like many composers before him, his first music teacher was his father, himself a court musician in Bonn, and without success attempted to show him off as a child prodigy, much as Mozart's father had. Beethoven's childhood was difficult, and his father, an abusive alcoholic, beat him often when he did not perform up to his standards. Still, others soon recognized his great musical abilities, and in 1787 while in Vienna he got the opportunity to play for Mozart. He was given a job and music lessons by Christian Gottlob Neefe and sponsorship by the German court to play and study music. His career was halted slightly when he was 17, and his mother died, forcing him to care for two younger brothers.

In 1792, Beethoven moved to Vienna, intending to train with Joseph Haydn. Unfortunately, Haydn did not appreciate Beethoven's unconventional music ideas and playing style and stopped lessons. Despite this minor set-back, Beethoven quickly became known in Vienna for being a piano genius as well as a composer, though the composing came much more slowly. In the 1790's, Beethoven decided upon the career of a freelance musician, rejecting the idea of working for a church or a court, and supported himself through public performances, sales of his compositions and grants and stipends from noblemen willing to support his work and talent.

Typically Beethoven's musical life is separated into three periods: Early; Middle; and Late. In during his Early period, his compositions and playing style reflected the greats of classical music, including his former teacher Haydn and Mozart, while he simultaneously experimented with new stylistic avenues and finding his own voice. It was during this time that he composed his first and second symphonies, along with the first six string quartets, two piano concertos and twenty piano sonatas, including two of his most famous, "Pathetique" and "Moonlight."

Beethoven's Middle period started after he lost his hearing and is recognized as being the period during which his most dramatic and large-scale music works were composed. It was during this time that Beethoven composed many famous works, including symphonies numbers three through eight, the last three piano concertos, the triple concerto and his only violin concerto. He also composed five string quartets, seven more piano sonatas and his only opera, Fidelio.

Beethoven's late period started in 1816 and continued until his death. Compositions during this time are typically categorized as being Beethoven's most intellectual, intense and personal works. They also are the most experimental in his library. For example, his Ninth Symphony was the first symphony to add a choral part to the final movement.

Beethoven's most well-known works include his Third, Fifth, Sixth and Ninth symphonies, Piano Concerto No. 5, a Violin concerto, the "Pathetique," "Moonlight," and "Appassionata" piano sonatas and the "Fur Elise". "Ode to Joy," the recognizable final choral movement of the Ninth Symphony is the National Anthem of the European Union and was played by Leonard Bernstein during the fall of the Berlin Wall. These events commemorate the universal nature of Beethoven's music works. Because of the breadth of Beethoven's artistic experimentation and his success at creating works that could be understood and enjoyed by the entire world, many have called Beethoven, not only the greatest composer in history, but one of the greatest minds in history.

Beethoven's personal life was very difficult, and when he began to lose his hearing at age 28 he thought seriously about suicide. He was not easy to get along with, and often fought with relatives and friends, a trait that potentially was the reason he never married. Because of his freelance lifestyle, he often was in financial distress. Many note the influence of Beethoven's troubled life in his music; his compositions have themes that center around great struggle that is resolved with victory.

Perhaps Beethoven's greatest contribution to music was his transformation of the sonata form, although rivaling that was his re-envisioning of the symphony into a freer and more expressive form. Often in poor health, he died on March 26, 1827, legend has it during a wild thunderstorm, angry. His last piece of music was a string quintet in C Major, unfinished.

America did one version,I believe there is ,however I'm pretty sure there's another version.Looking that one up now.

Ludwig van Beethoven influenced him, and Hubert Parry was influenced by Johannes Brahms.

Magtanim ay di biro

Maghapong nakayuko

Di naman makatayo

Di naman makaupo

Bisig ko'y namamanhid

Baywang ko'y nangangawit.

Binti ko'y namimintig

Sa pagkababad sa tubig.

Kay-pagkasawing-palad

Ng inianak sa hirap,

Ang bisig kung di iunat,

Di kumita ng pilak.

Sa umagang pagkagising

Lahat ay iisipin

Kung saan may patanim

May masarap na pagkain.

Halina, halina, mga kaliyag,

Tayo'y magsipag-unat-unat.

Magpanibago tayo ng lakas

Para sa araw ng bukas

(Braso ko'y namamanhid

Baywang ko'y nangangawit.

Binti ko'y namimintig

Sa pagkababad sa tubig.)

1. Chronologically speaking, Beethoven was in the Classical Era. He was an important figure in both musical eras. His early influences were clearly Classical, having been taught (briefly) by Mozart and more so by Haydn. However, the rich, passionate nature of his music provided influence and a transition to the Romantic Era. 2. According to well-established chronologies in Western music, Beethoven (1770-1827) was mostly in the Classical era. However, the end date of the Classical era (and beginning date of the Romantic era) of 1820 is absolutely arbitrary. Beethoven composed in a Romantic style as early as 1803, when he finished his 3rd Symphony, "Eroica", which marked the dawn of the Romantic era.

Well you've answered the question yourself. Beethoven added vocal chorus for the first time into a symphony. This was an unprecedented and very odd choice at the time. Since then, it has had a moderate effect on future symphonies but nothing too drastic.

Basically - Don Giovanni [a rake] meets defeat in three encounters - With Donna Elvira, whom he has deserted but who still follows him. Then with Donna Anna, who must postpone her marriage to Don Ottavio after Don Giovanni tries to rape her and kills her father. Finally with Zerlina, whom he vainly tries to lure from her fiancé, the peasant Masetto. They all vow vengeance on Don Giovanni and his servant Leporello. Finally Don Giovanni is destroyed and delivered to hell by the statue of the Commendatore, who had accepted Giovanni's invitation to supper.

Fredrick Chopin's style period was The Romantic Era.

George Gershwin is 5' 10 1/2".

They where both slaves.

No. Tchaikovsky is better.

It depends on the person. I like Dvorak better because he had a proclivity for oboe and English horn solos (both of which I play). I don't dislike Tchaikovsky, just like Dvorak a lot more.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in Salzburg, Australia, on January 27, 1756.

he composed about 80n songs

giovonni palestrina composed 25 pieces of music

He moved to the USA in September,1939.

Franz Schubert's father was Franz Theodor Schubert and his mother was Elisabeth (nee Vietz). He had ten siblings who died in infancy, and five who survived. His surviving sinlings included his brothers Ignaz, born in 1785; Karl, born in 1796; Ferdinand, born in 1794 and he had a sister, Maria Theresa, who was born in 1801.

Ludwig Van Beethoven reached the total height of 1.68 meters.(5.5 feet)

Vivaldi wrote 46 operas and hundreds of concertos, as well as sinfonias, sonatas, chamber music, sacred music, and one of his best known works, The Four Seasons (Le Quattro Stagioni), in which he attempted to capture the moods of the four seasons through his music.

Syrinx by Debussy, and Fantasie by Faure. There are lots of famous pieces. One of the most popular is James Galway's version of John Denver's Annie's Song. There's lots of flute music you can buy online at sibeliusmusic.com I've written lots of flute music myself. Visit http://members.sibeliusmusic.com/timnew

I think you mean Single Ladies (aka: put a ring on it) it was Beyonce

Hope I helped!

Chopin had a long relationship with the novelist George Sand, but never married. * Chopin had a crush on Gladowska, but she didn't know until after he got over her. She said that he would not have made a good husband anyway. * Chopin was engaged to Maria Wodzinska for a year, but her parents didn't think it as a suitable match so they broke the marriage up! * The most famous of his lovers is George Sand, a popular writter. * Apparantly he loved Delfina Potocka, but there is no evidence of this ever happening. I hope this was some use, because it's so hard trying to find the truth on the web. Why don't they just put everything you want to know on one page?

depends on what instrument, look on wikipedia it will say exactly how many he wrote and for what
