A Brief History of Ludwig van Beethoven

[@autosalesrevival]

He also wrote a note in his piano that said “I would have killed myself if i didnt love my art” And he removed the legs of his piano so he can feel the vibrations

[@hannahquintua]

iT'S nOt eVeRyDaY yOu sEe ThaT That's why it's precious.

[@mrdarbab]

and he used his teeth. I've seen the piano in videos.

[@Hailey_Paige_1937]

Another fun fact about the Ninth Symphony: I forget who, but someone told the orchestra to not follow Beethoven’s conducting instructions and to just keep playing after he cut them off at the end. The person wanted to take advantage of Ludwig’s deafness, but Beethoven caught it and kept cutting the orchestra off anyway. There was another incident earlier in his life where Ludwig was going to perform a piano work for some higher-class people. They kept talking throughout the performance, so he stood up, slammed the lid of the piano down really hard, and basically screamed at them for not paying attention. He had a pretty quick temper, apparently. 😂

[@topic260]

Lmao Ludwig be pretty short-tempered like me too

[@hannahquintua]

Why didn't he shout at them? Was he deaf already at the time?

[@Hailey_Paige_1937]

Hannah Quintua Beethoven was completely deaf by the time he premiered the Ninth Symphony.

[@hannahquintua]

@@Hailey_Paige_1937 Oh.. imagine if he wasn't.. I'd be grateful to be born in the 21st century..

[@leverseidge1990]

Great video. I'm fascinated my Beethoven. I've been to his birth place, his many homes, his death place, helignstasde, hate that word, and seen many famous statues.

indeed...can be said also about other artist beside beethoven....

[@hydrolito]

How did the squirrels up in a tree hear about him?

[@loganfruchtman953]

Mozart did meet Beethoven in 1787 . Mozart said about Beethoven, “He will give the world something to talk about .”

[@Faruk_Yaz]

A myth more likely..

[@gaboh296]

I believe that comes from one source and it’s not Beethoven or Mozart. More than likely a fantasy

[@eblackadder3]

Beethoven and Mozart may have met. There is no contemporary evidence to confirm that it actually happened.

[@michaeleaster1815]

Though apocryphal, the "choose your own adventure" on this is usually: Mozart invited the young Beethoven to play, and then said "that is studied/prepared: improvise". So Beethoven did, and then Mozart delivered the line. Then Beethoven pulled on Mozart hair, removing his mask, and revealing it was in fact Haydn.

Pretty interesting video, I watched till the end. The popping up images are hillarious!

Unique talent. Great vlog... Seventh symphony, his only one through composed is just a dream. and those last 3 piano sonatas... didn't hear a note but produced perfection. Stunning musician and changed music forever. You can't have Mahler without Beethoven!

[@markusschelchshorn6135]

can't stop laughing because of these images and jokes you make here. defenitly one of your best videos. Love it.

I recently subscribed to this channel. The videos are really good. Being a fan of Beethoven and classical music in general, I loved this video. The animations were hilarious! :-D Keep up the good work! 👍

[@tabeah2166]

thank you so much for doing those videos! I have my a levels exam in music coming up and listening to those videos is so much more helpful than studying just with my notes on Mozart, Haydn, etc. Thanks, keep going!

I remember the year Beethoven died. Me and my family had to move back to Africa. It was rough for us but we turned out just fine. We plan to go visit his tomb in Vienna next year.😔

[@akiya9216]

[@MusicalMissCapri]

Haydn's bd party, I remember a story that said he had collapsed. Beethoven's physical contact being not just affection, but also concern for Haydn, and probably fear he would die.

[@Robinjam14]

Omg. Your story telling. Lol. I just fell in love. Haha. Great story. Thanks.

[@gigel008]

Going into the video I did not expect it to be this funny! Love it!

[@bye9593]

Actually, he wasn’t born on 17 December he was baptised on 17 December. So currently, his birthday is unknown but many people say that people are baptised after 24 hours of being born so he could of been born on the 16th.

Born in 17th December? Baptismal certificate said that and at that time one was baptized a day after birth so I think it's 16. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[@Aiden_Perez12]

Beethoven did meet Mozart when he went to Vienna. Mozart let Beethoven play for him to see if he was good now Mozart was very hard to impress so when Beethoven played some challenging pieces buy Mozart responded coldly but then Beethoven asked Mozart for a theme and played and Mozart was impressed also i believe that Mozart invited Beethoven to a little paryy or something like that and Mozart said i’d keep ur eyes open for this kid

Ei and ie in German are pronounced exactly the opposite as in english. So imagine it written as Hieligenshtadt and you'll get the correct pronouncitation.

[@adamcolbertmusic]

I'd read recently on the internet that his alcoholic drink of choice was wine, and the cheap stuff (my kinda guy) at the time had lead which made it sweeter (boo, lead), and so it was a combination of lead poisoning and cirrhosis both from wine :( And his favorite fruit was a ba-na-na-naaaaa.
