Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

This was Beethoven's first on-stage appearance in 12 years; the hall was packed with an eager audience and a number of musicians. The whole audience acclaimed Beethoven through standing ovations five times; there were handkerchiefs in the air, hats, raised hands, so that Beethoven, who could not hear the applause, could at least see the ovation gestures.
(7 May 1824)



There are 3377 births, 3944 deaths, 1122 murders, 498 disasters and 2079 other events about 5733 people in 6441 places until today.

Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar is an ongoing project since 1985 by DDV.
