Success Stories Of Great People And Inspiring Leaders: Beethoven

Beethoven was born on 16th, December, 1770 in Bonn of Germany.
His father was a singer in local palace choir. Beethoven's father was a
very common person and he was addicted to gambling. However, his
mother was a fairly kind-hearted and gentle female. She married an
assistant as her first marriage and married to Beethoven's father
when her ex-husband died.

Beethoven didn't have access to go to school for the reason that his
family was very poor. Nevertheless, he had a special feeling of music
when he was very young. His father wanted to make use of his
potential to make a big fortune. As a result, Beethoven had to practice
playing clavicorn and violin day and night under his father's pressure.
Beethoven had a performance on a stage for the first time when he
was only seven years old and he made a huge success. Some famous
musicians considered him as the second Mozart. Beethoven learned
how to compose music from Nifo and published his first work named
Concerto in A minor when he was 11. He went to Vienna to learn how
to compose music from Mozart and Haydn.


It seems that he would have a fairly bright future when Beethoven
received the first success in 1800. Nevertheless, he was troubled with
a terrible matter for years at that time. He found that he has became a
deaf person. There couldn't be anything more terrible than that for a
musician. He sank into a blue mood for a long time as a consequence.
Beethoven has an enthusiastic heart all the time. But his enthusiasm
was often unfortunate. He often tolerated both hope and enthusiasm,
disappointment and resistance. There was no doubt that all of these
emotions had become his unique source of creation. He fell in love
with Julia in 1801 and composed a music named Moonlight for her
specifically. To his disappointed, she couldn't understand his noble
soul and refused him. Beethoven was upset and despairing for that
and married a comte before long. It was the most hopeless moment
for him and once a time, he wrote down a paper of posthumous
papers.

He came to life in 1803 and composed some bright and warm music
such as The Second Symphonies. From then on, several more
beautiful and marvelous music were produced. Some of them are
fairly famous and I think you must have heard about them such as
The Eroica and The Storm.

Beethoven finished his masterpiece named The Ninth Symphonies in
1823. This piece of work expressed his world in his dream.
He suffered from pulmonary edema in Dec.1826, which was resulted
from a bad influenza. He passed away on 26th, March, 1827 for the
reason of suffering from hepatopathy.
It is said that the day on which Beethoven died was raining heavily
and storming seriously. It seems that even the God grieved over his
death.
Beethoven's funeral was fairly solemn and grand. It is estimated that
over 20 thousand people presented his funeral.
