Ludwg Van Beethoven: The great musician

I recently heard that "Beethoven" is the dog in a movie...!

But, because Beethoven was not only that, I decided to introduce him to you...

   Beethoven was one of the greatest musicians of all time. He was born in Germany in 1770 and died in 1827. he began composing musical pieces from an early age. His first composition came out when he was only 12. He quickly became popular as a composer and as a pianist as well.

    He slowly began losing his hearing until, in 1820, he became totally deaf. One of the greatest musicians could not hear at all!! But Beethoven didn't lose his courage too! He kept on composing music. Some of his most famous pieces were written when he was totally deaf! He couldn't even hear the audience's  claps...

Pieces by beethoven like the "9th Symphony" or "The Ode to Joy" are considered to be real musical masterpieces.Listen to this:
