About — The artist
Ludwig van Beethoven (/ludvig van betɔvœn/; in German: /ˈluːtvɪç fan ˈbeːtˌhoːfn̩/) is a German composer, pianist and conductor born on 15 or 16 December 1770 in Bonn and died on 26 March 1827 in Vienna.
The last great representative of Viennese classicism (after Gluck, Haydn and Mozart), Beethoven paved the way for the evolution towards musical Romanticism and influenced Western music throughout much of the 19th century. Impossible to pin down ("You give me the impression of a man with several heads, several hearts, several souls," Haydn told him around 1793), his art was expressed across different musical genres, and although his symphonic music is the main source of his popularity, he also had a considerable influence on writing for the piano and on chamber music.
Overcoming through sheer willpower the trials of a life marked by the deafness that struck him at the age of twenty-seven, celebrating in his music the triumph of heroism and joy even as fate imposed isolation and hardship on him, he was rewarded posthumously by this statement from Romain Rolland: "He is far more than the foremost of musicians. He is the most heroic force in modern art." An expression of an unshakeable faith in humanity and a deliberate optimism, an affirmation of a free and independent artist, Beethoven's body of work makes him one of the most significant figures in the history of music.
