The difficult childhood life did not allow Beethoven to enjoy the warmth of family as Mozart did when he was a child. At first. For him, everything in life was so tragic and cruel. His father wanted to discover his musical talent and show him off like a child prodigy. Before he was four years old, Beethoven was required to stay in front of the piano all day long. Or being locked up at home with the violin, he was almost overwhelmed by the heavy practice at a young age. Beethoven also once got tired of music, and his father had to use violence to force him to study.
As a boy, Beethoven took on the burden of life prematurely and began to worry about economic problems and how to earn daily bread. At the age of eleven, Beethoven joined the theater band and received a small monthly salary to subsidize the family's living expenses.

The father, who often drank too much, lost the ability to run the house.

Beethoven felt his ears ringing day and night, and his heart was tortured by severe pain. His hearing gradually deteriorated, and eventually he became completely deaf in both ears.
This brought a devastating blow to Beethoven's life, love and music creation life. For several years, he avoided meeting people, guarding the terrible code of deafness alone, and endured tremendous mental and physical pain.

Anecdotes
Once, Beethoven walked into a long-term restaurant to have dinner. As soon as he sat down, he concentrated on composing his movement. After he finished the idea, he happily called the waiter and said:

He quickly shook off the dust on his body, straightened his collar, took off his hat in his hands, stepped forward to greet the queen and the prince, and bowed to pay tribute.
At this time, Beethoven felt that the tall image of the poet in his mind suddenly collapsed. After the royal family passed by in a grand manner, Beethoven said to Goethe in an almost quarrelsome tone: "You are not the author of "Getz" and "Faust" as I imagined, but a vulgar person. "Since then, they have never seen each other again.
