When Beethoven went to Vienna he went to mozart's house, there Beethoven said that he wanted to learn music with him because he didn't know any music but when Beethoven started to play the piano Mozarrt was amazed and really wanted to study with Beethoven but Beethoven had to leave because his mother was really sick so he left, Mozart never got to see him again. Then a few years later the French revolution began Beethoven was really excited and inspired, but nobody was going to treat him as a servant When Prince Franz von Lobkowitz annoyed Beethoven, Bethoven said " Lobkowitz it a donkey!" Mozart and Haydn never dared to behave like that. Beethoven spent several years playing the organ and the violin in the Local theater orchestra, and writing lots of music. In 1792, a man called Count Waldstein paid him to go to Vienna to study with Haydn the most famous composer of that time. One of Beethovens first compositions was music for ballet about Prometheus, a character of Greek mythology that stole fire from heaven and brought it to the earth. Beethoven thought himself that he was a kind of Prometheus, bring to music feeling and thought that no other composer had done that before. Beethoven early compositions were piano sonatas one famous one was the Pathetique Sonata, meaning sonata full of feeling. It has wild and stormy opening feelings, and then followed by a gentle and slow movement. This way Beethoven felt like bringing new fire and feeling to music.
