A person who writes music is a composer. A composer thinks of a musical idea and writes it on paper for others to read. Instead of writing words, a composer uses musical notation(记号). Other people can read the notes and play them. When they do, they're playing music that came from the composer's imagination.
Beethoven was a famous German composer. He was born in 1770 in Bonn and began learning the piano when he was only four. He also learned to play the violin. Beethoven visited Vienna, which was a very musical city, in 1787. Two other famous composers lived in Vienna at that time. Wolfgang Mozart and Joseph Haydn met Beethoven and gave his music high praise. Beethoven made friends in Vienna and returned there in 1792. He studied music with Haydn and lived in Vienna for the rest of his life.
Beethoven was known as a great pianist, but he wanted to compose his own music. He always seemed to have musical ideas in his head. His notebooks show how hard he worked to get the music just right. He often wrote and then revised his music by scratching it out(勾划), so it is possible for us to see how he was thinking about the music.
During the late 1790s, Beethoven began to lose his hearing. At first it was difficult for him to hear people and talk with them. Even when he became completely deaf, he did not stop creating music. He heard music in his mind even though he couldn't hear it with his ears.
Most people have heard of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5, but they may not know he wrote it when he was growing deaf. Symphony No. 5 starts like this: ta - ta - ta - TUM. Beethoven used this pattern over and over in his symphony. Try saying it aloud two times: ta - ta - ta - TUM, ta - ta - ta - TUM.
