    Yes, he's cleverly created a seamless "hybrid" out of two Beethoven sonatas here: brilliant! I never get tired of watching this, it's hilarious.
    One thing I'd like to know is: which versions of these performances are being used? I listened to a version of Glenn Gould playing the Pathetique Sonata, and it's much different from the way "Rowan" is playing it: much faster and with less expression (though still enjoyable).
