Quand est Beethoven 200th Death Anniversary ?

On March 26, 1827, Ludwig van Beethoven drew his final breath in Vienna — one of the most profound losses in the history of Western music. Two centuries later, the world pauses to honour the composer whose symphonies, sonatas, and string quartets reshaped what music could express, written against the backdrop of progressive deafness in one of history's most defiant acts of artistic will. From Bonn to Berlin, Vienna to Chicago, concert halls and cultural institutions worldwide will mark this bicentenary with performances, exhibitions, and celebrations befitting a legacy that has never dimmed. Count down the days until the Beethoven 200th Death Anniversary with our live countdown timer.
