Ludwig van Beethoven  (1770-1827)
Last updated: 31.01.24
Probably the greatest composer that ever lived. According to Percy Scholes in his The Oxford Companion to Music", more than any other he deserves to be called the Shakespeare of music, for he reaches the heights and plumbs the depths of the human spirit as no other composer has done, and it was his own ambition to be called "Tone-Poet". In him were combined, in a measure that remains (and may for ever remain) unique, the power to feel most passionately and tenderly and the mastery of musical resources necessary to express his feelings in the most direct and vivid way."
He was born in Bonn in 1770 and died in Vienna in 1827 aged 56.
