Beethoven was a great composer. During his life he
created many beautiful and famous works. Many of his
works are well kept today. At an early age, Beethoven
took an interest in music, and his father taught him day
and night. At the age of 8, he gave his first known public
performance. Though he couldn’t hear anything any
more at the age of 45, he still continued to work for his
music, and he successfully finished the ninth and tenth
symphony at last. It is said that he wrote a great deal
more than those well-known works. There are thus
hundreds of them have been available only to scholars
and specialists until now.
Beethoven never married. As a young man he had
loved deeply one of his pupils Guicciardi, Julietta. But
her father would never let her marry an ordinary
person, much less a poor musician. In the sorrow of
his heart, Beethoven created one of his greatest music
-- the Moonlight Sonata
