This is the authentic tempo according to all Beethoven's contemporaries [1/4 note = 54-60 per Martin Noorduin's thesis "Beethoven's Tempo Indications"]. Adagio sostenuto in Alla breve so 2 beats in a bar - slow march time - for the _melody_ so the accompaniment sounds fast. When Schnabel recorded it in the 1930s he played it fast, Kempf also fairly fast. It does kill the "moonlight" mood which is not to everyone's taste.

Thank you very much! Very original and beautiful interpretation. Happy birthday Maestro Sokolov!
Happy Birthday 🎂
I imagine this is how LVB would have played it - fire and brimstone
way too fast
Presto agitato. I can’t imagine a more accurate rendition of what Beethoven intended here
@@xx133 joke? Adagio sostenuto
I agree with you
@@xx133 But this isn't Presto agitato, this sounds like Prestissimo
It's Adagio sostenuto-not Moderato. Too fast kill the mood
fr what is he doing
disagree - listen to the melody - you've been hearing it played too slowly - it is a march.

Also, Beethoven didn’t name it as moonlight
What’s the mood?
