Ludwig van Beethoven

When he was 57 years old he was die with pneumonia.

Ludwig van Beethoven was born on December 16th, 1770, and baptized on December 17th, 1770 in Bonn, Germany. He was a very famous classical composer who excelled despite his hearing loss.

The Ghost Trio was so named by Czerny because the second movement reminded him of Hamlet's Ghost in Shakespeare. In fact, Beethoven's notes reveal that he was working on an idea for an opera based on Macbeth, and interspersed with these notes are the sketch of a slow movement for the Trio.

Beethoven had some great hobbies and as you may know his favorite is piano he played many other instruments look at youtube.com :D

His grandfather was a Fleming (Lodewijk van Beethoven) That's why there's a Dutch Van instead of a German Von.

im sorry i dont know the answer but who wants to know its not important but if you want to know the real truth you can search other things bout this subject and find the real bloody truth bout him so i dont know oh wait i do ...... yes he smokes....... i think....

He was an innovator, widening the scope of sonata, symphony, concerto and quartet, and combining vocals and instruments in a new way. He was an innovator, widening the scope of sonata, symphony, concerto and quartet, and combining vocals and instruments in a new way. At the age of 7 he had his first public performance.

i heave heard he wrote it because he was diagnosticated in a future he would become deaf, wich leaded him to write all the 3 mvts. Or that sonata, wich each of those represent a diferent emotion, first mvt represents deception, second sadness, and third anger

Beethoven only composed very few pieces in a "classical tone", primarily his first symphony. He was taught by Haydn, a classical composer, so it would make sense for Beethoven to start off by composing a classical piece. Later on in his life though, he composed very Romantic style music. His second symphony, Eroica, was a key example of the romantic era.

No. The original words of Joy to the World were written by Isaac Watts (though they have been greatly modified since then) while the melody was adapted from an older version written by composer Georg Handel.

Beethoven's house is currently in Bonn, Germany. Im not from Germany so i dont know his current authentic address.

Yes.... It's true that the Archbishop of Salzburg strongly despised Mozart and constantly mistreated him. Mozart hated him right back - so he got sacked from the court in 1781, and was literally given a kick. Mozart then moved to Vienna, where he stayed there for the rest of his life - and he avoided Salzburg like the plague.

Thanks to the movie Amadeus, many people these days think Mozart's enemy was Antonio Salieri. To put the facts straight, Salieri and Mozart were rivals - but at the same time were good friends. Salieri did help him with a few projects, but he didn't help him finish the Requiem.

Beethoven did not get married but there was a girl he liked called Alise and he composed a song for her called Fur Alise unforcanly she did not like him back

Beethoven is held by many to be a musical genius. There are several reasons for this: His innovative, revolutionistic and original style; his craftsmanship, knowledge of the opera and orchestra; his beautiful melodies and treatment of these. These are traits shared by many famous composers, and he fits naturally in between those.

Beethoven began composing works of music when he was ten years old.

Playing wise, he just could play anything he heared and picked it up as if it were nothing. learning wise, his father home schooled him but he didn't learn a lot because he was mainly focused on music and his tours in England.

The Origin of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata - 1909 was released on:

USA: 2 February 1909

He was deaf and by the time he died, he was a heavy drinker suffering from liver disease.

Researchers at Argonne National Lab examined his skull to conclude that Beethoven suffered from lead poisoning which was consistent with several of his ailments and was probably what killed him. The heavy drinking was most probably a psychological coping mechanism for the symptoms of lead poisoning that ailed him so. His deafness may or may not have been caused by the lead, in rare cases deafness has been attributed to lead poisoning, but it's rare and the ANL research could not conclude that the lead caused his deafness, but it does seem somewhat reasonable that it did.

I'm not sure what his middle name is, but don't let anyone tell you his middle name is van. Van actually means "of" hence Ludwig of Beethoven's.

That would be difficult considering that The Nutcracker was written by Tchaikovsky between the years 1891-92, and that Beethoven died 64 years earlier in 1827.

You are probably thinking of Beethoven's 6th symphony. It kind of sounds like it would be in the Nutcracker. It is featured in Disney's Fantasia 1940.

It was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1786. The official name is Symphony No. 38 in D major.

Napoleon rose and fell; the Holy Roman Empire vanished from the map; and the Bastille fell

The symphony begins with three short notes followed by one long one. Three dots and a dash is the Morse code for the letter V. V is the Roman numeral for five (the Fifth Symphony) and stands for victory. All of that was just such a coincindence that it was irresistable in the popular imagination. It was also just too delicious an irony to use one of the great achievements of German culture as a symbol against the Germans.Michael Montagne
