   Beethoven (貝多芬) was born in a small city near Rhine in Bonn. His father always drank and his mother was a maid (女仆) . They lived a very poor life.

   Beethoven was a gifted child in music. People at that time thought he was as clever as Mozart. His father wanted to make money from his talent,and asked him to practice and play all the time. If he did not do that,his father would be angry and beat him up.

   Beethoven was very short and ugly. People always laughed at him. He couldn’t hear well from 26 years old and later heard nothing. All these unhappy things didn't make him dislike music. He began to write sonatas at 12 ,and later he became a great musician. The most famous work of his is Fate Symphony.

   His life was so short that he didn't leave many works. But people think he was one of the greatest musicians in the world.
