Beethoven vs. Mozart=

So as the day went on, I am still sitting exhausted. I wake up at 6:30 AM. And dance from 11:00- 2:30 PM., and am currently having a hot flash, and tired to the point where I just want to fall asleep and never wake up. But the day goes on, which means, I must stay awake and be active for… Another 12 hours! It’s okay, I think I am going to just go to sleep… J
I still am disappointed that no Beethoven songs are found in the grade 6 book, Royal Conservatory, but I do have the famous song, “Toccatina” by Dmitri Kabalevski, and it is just beautiful. But nothing is quite as beautiful as Beethoven’s work and music, and this whole post is to explain why, and my thoughts about him and the comparison between Mozart and Beethoven.
I am always told, “Mozart is better!”, just to get under my skin because everyone knows that Mozart isn’t my biggest idol. Even if people do not believe in either, the one they know most about from their friends opinions are the ones they go with, and to be frank, they usually choose Mozart in that way. But if you spend your whole life knowing about Beethoven, you aren’t in for a surprise, but if you don’t know the most about him, you will be out of your shoes in just a moment.
In 1700’s people were able to abuse each other, and Beethoven was the victim of that. So was Mozart. When Beethoven grew older, all the hitting went to his head and gave him bad childhood memories which caused anger management, but he truly was a kind man. Therefore, Mozart (even without the beating) still would’ve been a cruel angry man.
This post is not in any way against Mozart, but telling the difference between the two composers and how they grew up and were taught the same way, but were produced different.
Beethoven grew deaf, and still lived to play the piano and composed some of the most famous compositions ever in history, and Mozart never had any career stopping experiences that would stop any normal person from not doing their job. Another comparison that the results have been very different.
Thanks for reading, and until next time!
