Beethoven is universally recognized as one of the greatest composers in the world.
Born in 1770 , Beethoven showed great talent at an early age. In 1787, Beethoven first visited Vienna, at that time the centre of the musical world . There he performed before Mozart, who was amazed at his talent. In 1792,
Beethoven returned to Vienna, where he lived until his death.
Beethoven never married . As a teacher , he was impatient but painstaking ; he was quiet in piano playing but extravagant in conducting. He was so absent-minded that once he insisted on paying a waiter for a dinner he had not eaten or even ordered.
By 1817, he became totally deaf , public performance stopped, but he continued his creative work .His finest works were composed after he had lost the power to enjoy them. 2.介绍约瑟夫.海顿
古典音乐时期优秀作曲家，被称为“交响乐之父”和“弦乐四重奏之父”。尽管他大家熟知的全名是弗朗兹.约瑟夫.海顿,但是他较常用“约瑟夫.海顿”这个名字。 年轻时，很少与其他音乐家们交流，直到后期，正如他自己所说的“他是被迫成为原创的”。一生居住奥地利，长期为富有的家庭做音乐教师。晚年在欧洲很出名，常去巴黎和伦敦演奏。
Joseph Haydn
Franz Joseph Haydn , ( March 31 or April 1, 1732---May 31, 1809 )was a leading composer of the classical period, called the father of the Symphony and Father of the String Quartet . Although he has come to be popularly known as Franz Joseph Haydn , with many published scores and recordings using his full name , Haydn used his second name much of his life , spelling it in German as Josef and signing letters and documents as Josef Haydn.
A life-long resident of Austria, Haydn spent most of his career as a court musician for the wealthy family on their remote estate. Being isolated from other composers and trends in music until the latter part of his long life , he was , as he put it , “forced to become original“.In his old age , he was respected throughout Europe, journeyed to perform concerts in Paris and London, and died in Vienna.
