Beethoven profile

Ludwig beethoven, 1770- 1827, is a German composer, pianist and conductor. 1770 65438+February17 Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany.

His grandfather and father were court musicians, and his father sang in the local orchestra. Maybe it's heredity, maybe it's edification. When he was a child, he was discovered by his father to have an unusual musical talent. Under the guidance of his father, Beethoven began to get in touch with music. At the age of four, I began to learn to control the piano and violin, and practiced the piano day and night under the strict supervision of my father. Father hopes to train him to be the second Mozart. Beethoven began to perform at the age of eight.

Two years after Mozart's death. Beethoven moved to Vienna. He was 22 years old then. Here I met Haydn, a mentor who influenced his life. He began to learn composition from joseph haydn. Beethoven began to emerge because of his unique playing skills. In just ten years, he has created many famous works, such as Symphony in C minor, For a Lover Far Away, and Pastoral Symphony. As the audience who heard his performance said, "He knows how to attract every audience and often makes them cry ..." So he also got financial support.

After 1790, Beethoven, 26, began to have hearing problems. He suffered greatly and became more and more depressed. Beethoven did not stop writing because of tinnitus, but listened to his inner feelings. He still composes music. But the effect of tinnitus is that he can't control the strength of his fingers when he presses the key. This made him desperate.

1802, Beethoven wrote his will in Vienna-The Wills of Heiligenstadt. "I should have ended my life, but my art kept me," I wrote in my will.

Beethoven composed six symphonies during the period of 1803- 18 13. The most outstanding are the Hero Symphony, the Seventh Symphony and the Ninth Chorus Symphony. 1803' s "Hero" symphony changed the historical trend of symphony tradition and shocked the audience. Schumann once said: "Although you often hear this symphony, it always has a constant power for you-just like natural phenomena always scare people." After listening to the Symphony of Destiny, Engels praised: If you don't know this wonderful thing, then you have never heard anything in your life. "That kind of complete despair and sorrow, that kind of sadness and pain" and "that kind of gentle love thought" Engels expressed the essence of the symphony of destiny in just a few words.

18 14, Beethoven was completely deaf and almost retired. His music is also very demanding of the audience. He endowed the music with magnificent momentum and shocked the hearts of the audience.

Beethoven died at 5: 45 p.m. on March 26th 1827. Ended his painful and glorious life. Beethoven's life is full of expectation and respect for life. He once said, "I am willing to live such a beautiful life 1000 times." He said: I hear trees and rocks singing. His works have washed away the hearts of generations.
