Have you ever sung Beethoven's ninth in a choir?

No I haven't. I've seen Beethoven's ninth on TV before, but I don't think I can sing or play that music since it's too difficult for me. In the first place, is that English? I guess Beethoven is German, so I need to study German language so that I can sing that song.

You could use "since", but "because" is a bit more natural.

Nothing technically wrong with what you've written, although "since" is generally used with a more specific reason. I have changed the ordering to cut down on repetition: "too ... for" is in itself a negative form, giving a nice way to compact the clause.

In the first place, is that English?

The only time that you can pose a question in written English is the so-called "rhetorical question", where the answer is already obvious to the reader. This is used to mock anyone with a different viewpoint to the writer.

I guess Beethoven is German, so I need to study German language so that I can sing that song.would need to study German before I could attempt it! I would need to study German before I could attempt it!

"I guess" is a bit informal here. To avoid saying "German" twice, I think you can remove the reference to Beethoven without any loss of meaning. "That song" is not needed; it's clear what you're talking about, so "it" will do. Also, be wary of a common mistake - in a "song", singing is the key feature throughout; any other work of classical music is a "piece". As Beethoven's ninth is a symphony, we never refer to it (even the final choral section) as a song. Finally, for variety, I have replaced "sing" with "attempt", as the action is clear from the context.

I guess Beethoven is German, so I need to study the German language so that I can sing that song. I guess Beethoven is German, so I need to study the German language so that I can sing that song.
