Ludwig van Beethoven

Classical

Beethoven number 1 :)

his very own Funeral March

"He wrote it"

Mozart was 22 when he composed the 12 variations of 'Twinkle, Twinkle little star'.

I know this because Mozart composed this piece of music in 1778 and he was born in 1756, this means 1778-1756=22!

I can't give you specifics without some research-- it's not as if he worked for a "Composition Firm" from 9 to 5 earning a regular salary. In those days composers might be fortunate enough to have rich titled patrons who supported them in their artistic work, usually with requirements to produce various works for the patron's court. A good example of such an artist is Francois Couperin (Le Grand, a contemporary of JS Bach) who was a musician in the court of Louis XIV. By Beethoven's day it was becoming more common to receive some private commissions for the composition of various works. And of course he was a famous and celebrated pianist before deafness overtook him. I think it's very interesting to note that while some composers (notably Mozart) died penniless and destitute, Beethoven managed his affairs in such a way that he was able to take care of himself and even leave an estate.

It isn't polyphonic - it's is monophonic: A melody accompanied by broken and arpeggiated chords virtually all the way through. Polyphonic means two separate voice lines playing against one another - that doesn't occur in Fur Elise.

an artisam under the authority of the church

Beethoven was born in 1770. He was died in 1827. He died at the age of 57.

There were no composers similar to Mozart, he was unique. Other composers from the "Classical Period" were - Christoph Gluck, Joseph Haydn, Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert, Carl Bach (3rd son of J S Bach), Christian Bach (youngest son of J S Bach), Thomas Arne, Luigi Boccherini, Domenico Cimarosa, Antonio Salieri, Giovanni Paisiello.

Piano is short for pianissimo. To play piano means to play softly.

Yes, Beethoven completed his famous and brilliant Ninth Symphony in 1824 (which includes the text setting of Schiller's 'Ode to Joy' in the finale). He even started a tenth later in his life.

There is dispute about the cause of Beethoven's death; alcoholic cirrhosis, syphilis, infectious hepatitis, lead poisoning, sarcoidosis and Whipple's disease have all been claimed.

Deaf people sense vibration in the part of the brain that other people use for hearing - which helps explain how deaf musicians can sense music, and how deaf people can enjoy concerts and other musical events. These findings suggest that the experience deaf people have when 'feeling' music is similar to the experience other people have when hearing music. The perception of the musical vibrations by the deaf is likely every bit as real as the equivalent sounds, since they are ultimately processed in the same part of the brain.

The 9th was first performed on 7th May 1824 and since Beethoven spent much time over most of his compositions rather than composing them in 'one go' it is not possible to say with certainly, but it would have been around 1817 when he started his composition.

I know of Opus 86: Mass in C and Opus 123: Mass in D Missa Solemnis, Opus 85: Christ in the Mount of Olives. I don't know if there are any more.

England

Beethoven had just one lesson in composition with Mozart before he had to return to his ailing mother. After that, he was tutored by Haydn, with whom he did not have the same rapport as Mozart. It is known that he greatly admired Mozart and would have liked to continue under his tutelage.

Beethoven's 9th symphony is known as 'the Choral'. But since you logged this question under 'Ludwig van Beethoven', you presumably already knew that!

what characteristics of beethoven music

Ludwing van Beethoven's music is slow in Fur Elise but in Moonlight Sonata though it is getting a fast beat but it has a low heavy tone and it really is slow.His moonlight sonata is strange because it goes high then low.Everybody knows that his symphonie or his pieces of art expressed his feelings wich is majestuious way to show feelungs.For exanmple Symphonie N°5 it really show us his feelings by going up then low really fast.

The score was not published until 1867, 40 years after the composer's death. The discoverer of the piece, Ludwig Nohl, affirmed that the original autographed manuscript was dated 27 April. This manuscript has been lost.

In miniseries "Strauss Family", Johann played violin as well as piano

I hear the sound of the tremble enfante.

It is merely the second part of a longer piece. Composers will often break up a very long piece into shorter sections. Sometimes a different variation on the original theme can mean a 2nd (or more) movements in a piece. For performances at times, a small group might play just the 2nd or 3rd movement from a piece for sake of time constraints - church organists have to do this all the time as seldom will any parishioner sit still for a 17 minute long piece.

The pay varies widely in symphony orchestras. Many small towns have orchestras that pay "per service" (meaning per rehearsal or performance). Larger cities generally have salaried orchestras that range in pay based on prestige and budget. A third tier orchestra (Buffalo, Oregon, North Carolina) generally pays in the $30,000-50,000 range and up to the "big five" orchestras (Cleveland, Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadelphia) which have starting salaries around $110,000.
