Beethoven moved up to 70 times which may shed some light on his popularity as a neighbor. Because writing all his friends all his new addresses had become a chore he told them to "just write - Beethoven, Vienna!"
Beethoven was not the most handsome neighbor you could think of. In this three-part series we will discover some of his wildest habits that have had neighbors go mad.
According to a few accounts Beethoven must have lived in quite a mess - listen to these quotes.
Beethoven's 6th Symphony
A breakthrough in programmatic music and a demonstration of Beethoven's love for nature.
Imagine you're one of the most brilliant composers of all time and at a relatively young age of 27 your hearing gets worse and worse. Your life is built upon the sound of music and now it's taken away from you. What a tragedy!
Beethoven, stubborn as he was, never gave up (despite initial thoughts on suicide) and even completed some of his most outstanding work while being completely deaf. What a genius!
Never give up - and play with passion!
Op.9 No.2 D365
Beautiful little walz by Franz Schubert which is just absolutely lovely. Enjoy!
