What was the profession of Beethoven's father?

Ludwig van Beethoven

December 16, 1770 —March 26, 1827

Ludwig van Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany. His father, who was a singer, was his first teacher. After a while, when he was still only a boy, Ludwig began to travel and perform and soon, he was supporting his family.

In his early twenties, Beethoven moved to Vienna, where he spent the rest of his life. Beethoven was one of the first composers to make a living without being employed by the church or a member of the nobility. At first, he was known as a brilliant pianist. But when he was around 30 years old, Beethoven started going deaf. Even though he could no longer hear well enough to play the piano, Beethoven composed some of his best music after he had lost his hearing completely! He wrote nine symphonies and many other kinds of music: chamber and choral music, piano music and string quartets, and an opera.

In his later years people communicated with him through his “conversation books”: they would write to him and he would reply, either by speaking or writing. Some of those books remained and we had a thorough insight into his later years. He wrote, “Music should strike fire from the heart of a man, and bring tears from the eyes of a woman.”

Beethoven is considered one of the greatest musical geniuses who ever lived.
