Beethoven was not deaf for most of his musical life. He became deaf. You can safely assume that I am asking about Beethoven, before he became deaf. Facts please.

If you believe Wikipedia, Beethoven lived to be 57, but didn't start going deaf until age 31. Here is the reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_van_Beethoven
I don't like answers that are so "easy", in which people pretend they know everything and don't bother to even look it up.
