Definition
One of history's greatest composers, a German musician who created famous symphonies while being deaf.
Etymology
From German 'Beethoven,' a place name meaning 'beet gardens' from 'Bete' (beet) and 'Hofen' (farms). Ludwig van Beethoven took his surname from his family's ancestral region.
Kelly Says
Beethoven wrote his most famous work—the Ninth Symphony—completely deaf, imagining the music entirely in his head, which makes him not just a genius but proof that disability doesn't limit creativity.
