        Beethoven became deaf, and could only appreciate things like orchestral performances and audience applause from vibrations (but I’ve never heard that he had any exceptional abilities in that regard).

        Mozart did tricks like playing the piano upside down or blindfolded, but it had nothing to do with being deaf.
