[求助] 翻译一篇短文 (1), 英译中

Beethoven was the grandson of a musician of Flemish origin named Lodewijk van Beethoven (1712–73). Beethoven was named after his grandfather, as Lodewijk is the Dutch cognate of Ludwig. Beethoven's grandfather was employed as a bass singer at the court of the Elector of Cologne, rising to become Kapellmeister (music director). He had one son, Johann van Beethoven (1740–1792), who worked as a tenor in the same musical establishment, also giving lessons on piano and violin to supplement his income. Johann married Maria Magdalena Keverich in 1767; she was the daughter of Johann Heinrich Keverich, who had been the head chef at the court of the Archbishopric of Trier.
Beethoven was born of this marriage in Bonn. There is no authentic record of his birthday; however, the registry of his baptism, in a Roman Catholic service at the Parish of St. Regius on 17 December, 1770, survives. As children of that era were traditionally baptised the day after birth in the Catholic Rhine country, and it is known that Beethoven's family and his teacher Johann Albrechtsberger celebrated his birthday on 16 December, most scholars accept 16 December, 1770 as Beethoven's date of birth. Of the seven children born to Johann van Beethoven, only the second-born, Ludwig, and two younger brothers survived infancy. Caspar Anton Carl was born on 8 April 1774, and Nikolaus Johann, the youngest, was born on 2 October 1776.
Beethoven's first music teacher was his father. Tradition has it that Johann van Beethoven was a harsh instructor, and that the child Beethoven, "made to stand at the keyboard, was often in tears.  "However, the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians claimed that no solid documentation supported this, and asserted that "speculation and myth-making have both been productive."  Beethoven had other local teachers: the court organist Gilles van den Eeden (d. 1782), Tobias Friedrich Pfeiffer (a family friend, who taught Beethoven piano), and a relative, Franz Rovantini (violin and viola).  His musical talent manifested itself early. Johann, aware of Leopold Mozart's successes in this area (with son Wolfgang and daughter Nannerl), attempted to exploit his son as a child prodigy, claiming that Beethoven was six (he was seven) on the posters for Beethoven's first public performance in March 1778

贝多芬是一位名为Lodewijk van Beethoven (1712–1773)的佛兰芒起源音乐家的孙子。贝多芬的名字就是根据他爷爷的名字来起的,在荷兰语中Lodewijk 是Ludwig 的同根词。贝多芬的爷爷受雇为科隆Elector 乐队的男低音歌手,后来升任为乐队指挥。贝多芬的爷爷有一个儿子,名叫Johann van Beethoven (1740–1792), 也在同一乐队司职男高音,他同时还教授钢琴和小提琴以补充家用。Johann1767年与Maria Magdalena Keverich结婚,她是时任特里尔Archbishopric法院厨师长Johann Heinrich Keverich的女儿。
贝多芬就出生自波恩的这段婚姻。关于贝多芬的出生日期,没有权威的记录,但是,他接受洗礼的登记信息保留了下来,上面记录他于1770年12月17日在圣Regius教区的罗马天主教服务机构接受洗礼。在那个时代,出生在莱茵河区域天主教国家的孩子通常于出生后的第二天接受洗礼;而且众所周知的是,贝多芬的家人和他的老师Johann Albrechtsberger 都在12月16日庆祝贝多芬的生日,多数学者因而接受1770年12月16日为贝多芬的生日。Johann van Beethoven所生的7个孩子中,只有老二Ludwig 和两个弟弟存活了下来。 Caspar Anton Carl 生于1774年4月8日,最小的Nikolaus Johann出生于1776年10月2日。贝多芬的第一位音乐老师是他的父亲。人们传统上认为约翰贝多芬是一个严酷的教练,贝多芬经常被父亲要求站着练习钢琴并常常以泪洗面。  不过,格罗夫音乐和音乐家词典声称,没有确实的文件资料证明这一点,并断言“推测和神话都富有成效。”贝多芬尚有其他本地教师:风琴师Gilles van den Eeden,教授贝多芬钢琴的家庭友人Tobias Friedrich Pfeiffer和教授他小提琴、中提琴的亲戚Franz Rovantini。贝多芬的音乐才华很早就显示出来。他的父亲Johann有感于莫扎特在儿子Wolfgang女儿 Nannerl的成功经验,试图把贝多芬作为天才儿童开发,为此在贝多芬1778年3月第一次公开演出的海报上声称贝多芬时只6岁,而实际上他已7岁。
