Answer 2

I was going to give you the shock factor and tell you about how people correlate his deafness with syphilis. But, they have already written that description into Wikipedia. Anyway, he liked the women and many of his pieces were written for the women that were in his life. Very much of a lady's man. And, if a person made any noise during a performance, he would stop the performance and reprimand the person.



Beethoven did not use the same piano that we use today. It was called a fortepiano vs. a pianoforte. He also wrote an opera. Most people do not know about that. You want to research that. It was called Fidelio.



Look for Beethoven's piano sonatas and symphonies. And remember, he is considered the father of the romantic era.
