In this Beginners Guide to Beethoven, you'll find links to biographies, histories, CD recommendations, and sound clips of Beethoven's music.
Who is Beethoven?
Ludwig van Beethoven, perhaps the most famous composer of all time, apart from his other works, only wrote nine symphonies. Compare that to Haydn and Mozart, who, combined, wrote over 150 symphonies! What made Beethoven special was his successful attempt to break the mold of the highly structured and refined rules of classical period composition. Many view Beethoven as the bridge connecting the classical period to the romantic period.

Interesting Beethoven Facts
Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' from Symphony No. 9 was adopted as the European National Anthem in 1972.
Beethoven's most important patron, as well as regular piano student, Archduke Rudolph, received eleven major dedications and four canons from Beethoven.
Beethoven set aside his work on his famous Symphony No. 5 to work on Symphony No. 4, which means Symphony No. 5 is technically Symphony No. 4.
Beethoven’s Symphonies
It took Beethoven twenty-five years to compose all nine symphonies. He was very meticulous about his work, often reworking it many times over. This obsessive desire to perfect his music may have been caused in part to his loss of hearing while in his 20’s. How could he be taken seriously as a composer if he couldn’t hear his own music? Nevertheless, his efforts have made a profound impact in the world. Nearly 180 years later, orchestras all over the globe are playing his symphonies, people are buying them on CDs, and millions of people are listening to them on television and radio. Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 (Eroica), Symphony No. 5, and Symphony No. 9 (Ode to Joy or Choral Symphony) are his most famous symphonies.
Fryderyk Franciszek Chopin（肖邦）
Since all that survives of Chopin is the brilliant music that he wrote, it's all too easy to forget that he was also a great performer. He wrote difficult and innovative music so that he could perform it himself.
Chopin’s father was a French schoolteacher, and his mother was Polish. He grew up in Warsaw, Poland, and studied music as a child, and then at the Warsaw Conservatory between 1826 and 1829. He had already published several pieces of music, and during 1829 and 1830 he became well-known as a pianist, giving concerts in Warsaw and Vienna. He composed almost all of his music for the piano (although sometimes with orchestral accompaniment). He tended to write his music actually at the piano, sometimes struggling to put his ideas onto paper. But he was unhappy in Poland and set off on a European tour, stopping in 1831 in Paris, one of the great musical centres of Europe.
Here, Chopin was praised as a musician by such composers as Liszt and Schumann , among others, and rapidly became famous. He played mostly for private audiences, although he did give a few public performances, and he was particularly known for his skill at improvising. He would use many of the musical ideas and styles from Polish folk music, and many of his compositions are directly linked to Polish dances and musical forms, such as the Mazurka. Chopin also established himself as a teacher, and many of his compositions were written to be used by his pupils, such as studies, preludes, waltzes, nocturnes, mazurkas and impromptus. These pieces are not perhaps as difficult as the larger-scale works he produced for concert performance, such as the scherzos, ballades, sonatas and the barcarolle, which were written for himself to perform.
Chopin was very inventive in the way he wrote music. While in form it was often quite simple - basically a tune and an accompaniment - it was often full of variation and interest. He used the sustaining pedal of the piano in a way which composers had not done before, and produced a delicacy both when playing and when composing which was considered highly innovative. This made it very popular, and his music was published in Paris, London and Leipzig. As a measure of Chopin’s popularity and fame, when he died of tuberculosis in 1849, 3,000 people attended his funeral.
