Биография Бетховена на английском

Beethoven was born in 1770 in Bonn, Germany. Both his father and grandfather were professional singers, so musicianship was in the family.

He started learning piano around age 4, taught by his father. He had a natural gift, and got good quickly.

Later on he became an assistant organist, and also played viola for the Prince-Elector’s orchestra. He loved it, and thrived in the highly musical environment.

He moved to Vienna when he was 22 to study with the famous composer Haydn, who Beethoven thought was the greatest composer of all time.

Beethoven was one of the first composers to make a living without being employed by the church or a member of the nobility. At first, he was known as a brilliant pianist. But when he was around 30 years old, Beethoven started going deaf. Even though he could no longer hear well enough to play the piano, Beethoven composed some of his best music after he was deaf!

Beethoven is considered one of the greatest musical geniuses who ever lived. He may be most famous for his nine symphonies, but he also wrote many other kinds of music: chamber and choral music, piano music and string quartets, and an opera.
