Beethoven, Ludwig van Allemagne Ludwig van Beethoven ( baptised 17 December 1770 – 26 March 1827) was a German composer and pianist. He was a crucial figure in the transitional period between the Classical and Romantic eras in Western classical music, and remains one of the most acclaimed and influential of all composers.
Born in Bonn, which was then in the Electorate of Cologne in western Germany, he moved to Vienna in his early twenties and settled there, studying with Joseph Haydn and quickly gaining a reputation as a virtuoso pianist. Beethoven's hearing gradually deteriorated beginning in his twenties, yet he continued to compose, and to conduct and perform, even after he was completely deaf.

Interest : Skill level : Marvellous. I love this symphony, and finally I found it on piano, arranged by none other than Franz Liszt. He's probably not missed one tone, if I know his compositions. And I do. Now where's the nearest grand piano...
