When Steibelt got REKT by Beethoven

- The story of the Beethoven vs. Steibelt is a legendary one. Steibelt got wrecked so badly, that he downright REFUSED to play or even show up to any event where Beethoven was present.
By the way, the dialogue that I included in the beginning isn't actually a quote from Steibelt, I just made it up. Steibelt did, however, make it a condition that if he is to play somewhere, Beethoven BETTER NOT be there.

Steibelt: “I challenge you, Ludwig”
Beethoven: “So you have chosen death.”
Exactly

Why the quote at all then🤷♂️
@@t3tratubeentertainment reasons lmao
I’ll have to check this, but I once heard that the plucky theme in the Eroica’s finale movement is based on that upside-down Steibelt melody!
If you can find a source on that, plz let me know! That’s very interesting!
BEETHOVEN SUPREMACY! get rekt Steibelt
All that cockiness...obliterated. Steibelt who? 😂😂😂
Good for you! Take a brave stance.
Rivalry sets people at each other's throats. The primary motive is financial. Coming in a close second is ego.
Steibelt had a huge ego apparently…

Boy, is that true!
Beethoven really just T-posed on Steibelt LOL
Challenge Beethoven and you will be ridiculed.
And remembered in the history books as the dude who got rekt by Beethoven. 😂😂
In my view there are three composers at the top. Bach, Tschaikovskij and Beethoven.
Tchaikovsky* tho I could be the same like you
Vaughan-Williams, Elgar, Handel, John Rutter, Rachmaninov, Debussy, Ravel and John Williams also in my top 10, along with Bach and Tchaikovsky. Beethoven is in the top 20 for me. However, Lauridsen, John Barry, Jerry Goldsmith, Gerald Finzi, and even Wagner and Puccini can give Beethoven a run for his money…. Chopin is up there too, but not quite as elite. Same deal with Brahms, Grieg, Schumann, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Rimsky-Korsakoff, Mussorgsky, Borodin, Stravinsky, Shosty, Prokofiev, Mahler, R. Strauss, Dvorak, Verdi, Faure, Saint-Saens, etc.
Wowww
Vanity
Well he is just not good enough!!!😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
He had to get humbled real quick. 🤣🤣
@@secondchairmusic Too bad !!!😂😂
I can't understand why Steibelt was humiliated by Beethoven improvising on an upside down cello part. How would that in any way be humiliating for Steibelt?
Steibelt had a massive ego, thinking that he’d make quick work of Beethoven, despite having never heard him perform at his peak. Losing an improv battle to a guy he underestimated, in front of a high society audience, was a massive blow to Steibelt’s pride. Furthermore, the fact that the theme Beethoven utilized was taken directly from the cello part of Steibelt’s own piece, only rubbed salt in the wound. The “upside down” was likely just for show; it was as if Beethoven was asking, “who do you really think I am? Your music is nothing to me.”
There was just no recovering from that. 😬😬
@@secondchairmusic I bet Beethoven played it in such a way, that he ridiculed Steibelts composition while stunning everyone in the room at the same time.

If Beethoven challenged me I would play.. squidward nose by cupcakke
