Franz Gerhard Wegeler...

Extracts from a letter from Beethoven to Franz Gerhard Wegeler,

a friend from Bonn and a doctor who moved to Vienna and married Eleonore von Breuning.

The letter is dated 29 juin,

most probably from 1801.

Beyond the fact that Beethoven deafness was exaggerated and dramatized, it’s important to note that it was not complete deafness from the start. To be true, it was an infirmity that established itself slowly, and also developed itself quite erratically. What was really dramatic was the moment in which the young, successful composer and virtuoso had to accept that he was suffering from a chronic, incurable illness with which he will have to live… and it was going to get worse.

When it became clear that Beethoven was deaf, he accepted it. It was in the midst of his heroic period, and it documented in some authentic Ludwig van Beethoven quotes written in the margins of the Razoumovsky Quartets.

It could safely be stated that even to the end of his life, there were days in which he could hear a bit. Was Beethoven deaf? In many other accounts, it was believed that he was stone deaf. When the communication difficulties finally became too great, more or less around 1818, Beethoven used leafs of paper or tablets, where his friends and visitors wrote down what they wanted to tell him, or ask him. These are known now as the "Conversation Books". Though these are some interesting facts about Beethoven, we lack the answers the Master provided to the questions written there. Except for a few cases, all we can do is guess what he might have said.
