       Artificial



       Intelligence to



       Complete


       Beethoven’s



       Unfinished 10th



       Symphony...







        The German composer’s 10th sympho-


        ny left unfinished because he did not

        live to complete it, will be completed


        by artificial intelligence.



        Beethoven, who suffered from health              ‘COMPOSER OF PASSION AND
        problems throughout his life, started            POWER’
        to have hearing problems at the age

        of 31 (1801). The famous artist, who             It is said that Beethoven had a com-
        completely lost his hearing at the age           plex and contradictory personality,
        of 47, continued to make music and               as well as a tremendous imagination.
        even composed the 9th Symphony                   According to some, Beethoven is “the
        without actually hearing it. The artist,         composer of passion and power.” The
        spending the last 10 years of his life in        years that Beethoven developed in
        complete silence, died of cirrhosis in           music coincide with the Napoleonic
        1827, while his last work, the 10th Sym-         Wars. Born in Germany at this time of
        phony, which he composed without                 extraordinary political turmoil in most

        ever hearing, was thus left unfinished.          of Europe, Beethoven was considered
                                                         one of Vienna’s greatest musicians.
