... This “Master of Music” name is Ludwig van Beethoven and will always go down in as greatest composer in history.
Johann van and Maria Magdalena Beethoven had five children of which three survived. Ludwig van Beethoven was the first child to survive, probably making him the most cherished especially in his father’s eyes. ... They were said to have played extremely important roles in Beethoven’s life. Johann van said to be a lesser man than his father Ludwig Louis van Beethoven, who was a trained musician and later appointed Kapellmeister. ...
Johann van and Maria Magdalena Beethoven wanted their first son to be great, especially in the music field, so he pushed him to learn the piano and violin at a very early age. For instance, Beethoven had his first public appearance at the age of eight on March 26, 1778. ... Beethoven continued to play at concerts, as well as taking music lessons with instructors other than his father. ... Beethoven learned all he could by age ten and from then on he lived off his wits and curiosity.
In 1779, Beethoven met his first very important teacher at Bonn by the name of Christian Neefe. Neefe automatically saw Beethoven’s talent and had a strong liking to him from the beginning.
