He became profoundly deaf during his life. He did not lose his sight. He took a piano apart, laid the soundboard on the floor, and he would press his ear to the floorboards to feel his compositions.

He went deaf when he was about 30, but didn;t go completely deaf until his 50's. He wasn't born deaf. He wasn't blind, but Bach and Handel went blind!

Beethoven was not BORN deaf. He was born with his hearing and later lost it due to illness.

He was deaf...he was able to feel his music through vibrations the piano and other instruments made. This made him a remarkable composer.
