34、ny No 9 No6 Love of nature Hope and joy HOW BEETHOVEN USED HIS DEAFNESS TO MAKE GREAT MUSIC In 1802 Beethoven became very upset when he realized that he would never hear accurately again. Because he was unable to share his feelings with others, he poured all his feelings into his music. His fifth sy
35、mphony was the first where these powerful feelings were expressed. In the first movement Beethoven introduces a strong beat, which is repeated to make a rhythm, it has been described as “fate knocking at the doer”. It shows Beethovens attitude to his problem of deafness. (Extract of music from fifth
36、 symphony first movement) But his mood changes as the symphony continues. In the third movement his despair was transformed into something much more exciting and challenging. It is as if he was refusing to be defeated by his deafness. Listen to the power of the music. (Extract from fifth symphony th
37、ird movement) Beethovens love of nature was well- known. The countryside calmed and relaxed him and also found its way into his music. On many occasions when he was struggling to finish a piece of music he would go for a long walk to sort out his ideas. He described this as working while he walked.
38、These walks found their way in his sixth symphony, called the Pastoral symphony or countryside symphony, which is one of his most popular compositions. ( Extract from the pastoral symphony) After 1812 his hearing became so bad that he became severely upset. Maybe he felt that nothing good would happ
39、en to him again. His musical output almost stopped. But strangely enough, this produced some of his most emotional music. His ninth and last symphony, called the choral symphony, was his greatest composition. He used a poem by a German poet to express his feelings of hope and joy. (Extract from last
40、 movement of Beethovens ninth symphony) But Beethovens music was not always grand and important. Many of his pieces for the piano are personal and gentle. So we will finish with one of his best-loved piano pieces, the Moonlight Sonata. The first movement describes a peaceful, quiet and beautiful moo
41、nlight night when all troubles have disappeared and only the beauty of nature remains. (Complete Moonlight Sonata) SPEAKING TASK Many people think that Beethoven was always a genius. Other people think he would never have been such a great composer but for his deafness. Step 1: In pairs discuss: whe
42、ther you think a genius is born or is made by circumstances; whether you think adversity makes one wise or not. Step 2: Have a class debate.

But his composing was not the most important part of his work before he became deaf. So I think circumstances made him a great composer. S1: Yes, but I su
45、ppose he must always have had it in him to be a great composer and the deafness gave him an opportunity to concentrate on it. It doesnt mean he wasnt born a genius - it just means he did not develop that skill fully at first. S2: OK. What other evidence is there? His compositions were good but not o

That was the result of circumstances. S1: Of course youre right but his compositions were already well- known. He had the a
