How did Beethoven play the piano if he was deaf?
Ludwig Van Beethoven made music when he was deaf by feeling vibrations and hearing the music in his head. He didn't become deaf until later in his life, so he had music theory well established in his mind and 'ear' well before that happened. If he had been totally deaf from birth, he would never have been able to write music, or to have a career as a pianist/musician.
How did Ludwig Van Beethoven die?
Some scholars claim Beethoven's death was due, in part, to lead poisoning. Beethoven died at age 56.
Tests have recently confirmed that Beethoven died as a result of lead poisoning. This was attested to by the fact that he suffered from stomach ailments for much of his life, another sign of lead poisoning.
It is not known what caused Beethoven's exposure to lead poisoning for so much of his life. There is speculation that, because he was a fairly heavy drinker, he perhaps drank from lead cups. Another alternative is that, because he had consulted so many doctors for his various ailments, lead exposure may have come from the many medical treatments he received which, in his time, were often laced with heavy metals. See the Web Link below regarding these tests.
Controversy continues to rage, with ideas being that he died from the complications of a chill, kidney failure, and lead poisoning. The latter theory is receiving much attention with new testing procedures possible on Beethoven's hair. An autopsy was performed, and if you're of medical bent or have a strong stomach, check the Web Link below.
What type of piano did Beethoven use in his concertos?
Modern pianos come in two basic design and several sizes: the grand piano and the upright piano. Grand pianos have the frame and strings placed going side ways, with the strings extending away from the keyboard. This avoids the problems caused in an upright piano, but takes up a lot of room and needs high ceilings for the right kind of sound. & Upright pianos, also called vertical pianos, are smaller because the frame and strings are placed so that they go up and down, extending in either direction from the keyboard and hammers. Hope This Helps.
What age was Beethoven when he started making music?

What were ten songs Beethoven composed?
Beethoven was already sketching his Tenth Symphony whilst working on his Ninth. More details on the unfinished Tenth Symphony can be found at the website below.
He was certainly a genius, but not necessarily 'like' Mozart. He is a hero of mine, particularly because of some of the ways he was unlike Mozart. I don't mean to diminish Mozart's mythic greatness one bit; Mozart is arguably the greatest composer who will ever draw breath.
The appealing thing about Beethoven's genius is that he had to put enormous effort into his writing, if evidence to that effect is accurate. He labored over what he wrote and re-wrote materials quite a lot before arriving at final versions. Again, if the evidence is sound, Mozart wrote with lightning speed, sometimes in his head, and produced much of his output in final form at the first scoring. There is some evidence that this might not be as true as some have indicated, but it seems clear that he didn't have to struggle nearly as hard as Beethoven. Writing music must have been almost a facile skill for Mozart. This is paraphrased and I do not know the source, but I read years ago that Mozart said "Writing music is the easiest thing in the world to do... once you know how to do it." In all probability Beethoven would never have said anything remotely like this.
Beethoven also lived and wrote at the very dawning of the Romantic period, and much of his music reflects and presages the aesthetics and style of that unfolding era.

Who is the court composer of the Emperor of Austria during Mozart's years in Vienna?
I don't fully know the answer, but i know it was someone who was hired by the King to create music for an orchestra or something..
I am adding to this answer, with my understanding of the obligations of a "modern day" court composer. It actually is drastically different. It is a title that carries with it, great honor and responsibility. Highly sought after. Duties include making jokes, immediately notifying me [head of court] if Weird Al tickets go on sale, contributing to my chin de-prunization Botox fund, and finding my retainer. So I believe that it is a highly customizable role. I have included a link below as well for better reference.
