you are wrong about beethoven not being widely liked or appreciated. you obviously havent been musically trained correctly. more people appreciate his music than you know. he is a musical genius. not one musician today can even compare. the closest one would have to be john williams. i have been playing piano for 13 years and i know that not even i understand his music. now this doesnt mean i cant play the music. there is a difference between playing and knowing. if anyone says that his music is bad then they know nothing about music. they may not like the music but saying its bad is incorrect.

One doesn't have to be trained in music to know classical music (yeah, yeah, I know he was from the romantic period) nowadays isn't appreciated by many. One needs to have eyes and years. For someone like you who's played the piano for 13 that might be harder to tell because you most likely know a lot of people who enjoy his music but the truth is the vast majority doesn't. It's a simple fact, just look around and look closely. And I think I need to say this again but I, personally, like Beethoven so I'm not attacking his greatness here or anything. I'm just trying to make a point by using him as an example, I can easily switch on to Mozart if you prefer, or then change the theme altogether.

yes i have heard of him and yes he is difficult but that doesnt justify greatness.

And that was exactly my point. I don't know if you noticed but Cyrus was saying Beethoven was great because he wrote difficult music (I'm being succinct here). To me that doesn't justify greatness either which is why I've been traying to explain that if Beethoven was a genius it wasn't only because he could write difficult music.

oh and one last thing. beethoven wasn't in the clasical era, he was in the romantic.

I know that but 'classical music' is just an expression used by the general public when refering to that sort of music (don't know if I'm making myself clear here). If we started calling things by their names it would just result in a bit of a mess.
