Musical legacy

Beethoven is one the grandest composers to ever ap-

pearonthehumanstage.Heisthebenchmarkbetween

theclassicalmusicof the18thcentury, andtheRoman-

tic scene that dominatedduring the19th. Hisprofound

reach extends well beyond into the next generation of

musicians. It casts a shadoweven inour dayandage.

His output includes 32 piano sonatas—which

reflect his revolutionary personality—chamber

works, concertos—for piano, violin, and other ar-

rangements—Secular works—two masses and vo-

cal works—lieder, incidental music—including the

opera Fidelio, as well as a balled, and various theater

works; and orchestral, which is most thoroughly ex-

pressed inhis Ninth Symphony.

Beethoven transcended numerous genres, well

beyond his capacity to compose symphonies, to

which he owes his international appeal. His impact

in relation to his piano and chamber music com-

pletely changed the notions of classical music and

art in general in a historic manner.
