    Life of Beethoven

    Ludwig Van Beethoven was born in December 1770 in Bonn, Germany.


    He studied piano and violin with his dad from a very young age, his Dad Johann a selfish
    alcoholic, who likes to use his son as an income for himself.
    When Ludwig Van Beethoven was 16, he went to Vienna in early 1787, because he wants
    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as his instructor, but a great disaster has fallen on Ludwig Van
    Beethoven, he’s mother got sick and he had to go back to his home town, no one knows if
    Ludwig met Mozart.

    On that year, his mother died and his fathers drinking habit got worse.
    On that year, Ludwig Van Beethoven had to take up the responsibility of taking care of the
    family.
    In order to achieve that, he decided to join the Viola gang.
    At 1792, he moved to Vienna, his first teacher there was Franz Joseph Haydn, who wrote the
    surprise symphony.

    One of the most important women to Ludwig Van Beethoven was his student called
    Josephine. Even tho the restriction of noble woman and commoners, Josephine and Ludwig
    were in a very close relationship.

    At the end of the 18th century, Ludwig had began to realize that he was gradually losing his
    hearing.
    He moved into a small town in Austria called Heiligenstadt(hay-li-gen-shtats) as
    recommended by his doctor.

    In early 1804, Ludwig Van Beethoven finished composing his 3 rd Symphony, which marks the
    transition between Classicism and Romanticism.
    People at his time thought his Symphony was alright, but it was too long and seemed
    endless.

    Ludwig Van Beethoven dedicated the 3 rd Symphony to Napoleon because Napoleon


    overthrown the french revolution and the monarchy, and Beethoven thought of him as a
    hero, but Ludwig soon learned that Napoleon crowned himself as king, Ludwig Van
    Beethoven was so mad he scratched out the title violently.

    Some time pass, he began to compose his 9 th Symphony at 1822, at that time Ludwig has
    completely gone deaf, but he still insist on premiering it himself.
    As recalled by violinist Joseph Böhm, "Beethoven himself conducted, that is, he stood in
    front of a conductor's stand and threw himself back and forth like a madman. At one
    moment he stretched to his full height, at the next he crouched down to the floor, he flailed
    about with his hands and feet as though he wanted to play all the instruments and sing all
    the chorus parts."

    He was a few bars off from what the musicians are playing. He was still waving his arms
    when the music ended.

    3 years after the premiere of his 9th symphony, Ludwig Van Beethoven had died from an
    illness at the age of 56.
