    Beethoven ist der genialste deutsche Komponist, den es jemals gegeben hat! In seinem gesundheitlichen Schicksal ist er über sich hinausgewachsen! Er hat uns so viel schöne Musik geschenkt, die wir pflegen müssen!!

    I remember waaay back when I was a college freshman, studying for a chemistry exam (?), and I had the radio on a classical station when this mvt came up....At most a minuet later all idea of study was GONE. All I could do was listen. I'll never forget that moment. It's been about 50 years.

      Same, I’m currently a college freshman and I was studying for a biology test and decided to listen to some classical (bc I love classical). By 0:39 I was completely focused on the music and forgot everything I studied. This piece is just so emotional

      Well it is wonderful, isn't it? But I would suggest Eric Korngold's violin concerto mvt. 2 with Pearlman playing might be better? Beethoven was a genius and the musical world could not have achieved what it did without him. However, listen to Korngold and tell me he was not also a genius.

      0:15 You're happy that you finally make it to heaven.
      0:28 You recall your past life and then you start looking for your loved ones in heaven and you asked yourself,
      0:40 "where are they?".
      1:20 You keep walking through heaven looking for them and you finally find them.
      1:38 They greet you with the sweetest smiles after not seeing you for such a long time.
      1:55 Your another loved ones greet you.
      2:11 They console you and tell you how much they've been missing you, they also apologize for every mistakes they've done to you in the past life and It was so sweet even God is smiling.
      2:38 God shows all his people in heaven the most beautiful thing he's ever created.
      4:37 You think about all the things you can do in heaven and the thoughts of it make you happier and happier,
      5:25 but you realize that you now have your family and all the people you love and that's good enough for you so you're grateful for everything.
      6:56 You're enjoying your life in heaven.
      9:07 You live happily ever after, the end.

      I agree. It just burns through the soul completely and cannot be beaten, although I really like Prokofiev Concerto 2 mov 1 when it almost reaches the end of the first movement and the cadenza kicks in. It's brilliant and so strong. The section your referring to is the most beautiful, and could possibly be the greatest 30 seconds in music history. Although other 30 seconds of music, such as variation 18 of Rachmaninoff/Paganini rhapsody on a theme hits me harder with emotion than this and variation 11 of liszt/paganini etude 6 is beyond the definition of epic, this just is simply the best.

    How can you not have a lump in your throat while listening to this piece ,which just sounds out of this world , especially when any fun memory with your late mom or dad or loved ones takes you back to the good old days with them ? My dad too passed away in peace earlier this year. It's seriously pulling at my heartstrings.😭
    It must be sincerity.
    His pieces that I've listened to so far are all about it.

      +Christopher Sharp Haha, actually... Beethoven wrote the Emperor concerto while being attacked by Napolean's army. He had to hide in a basement and composed this masterpiece under such scary circumstances, which is really remarkable when you think about it. His hearing was deteriorating and those canons weren't doing him any favours, so he was frightened that he would be completely deaf at the end of the siege. Something remarkable also happened to Beethoven that he obviously had in mind while composing the second movement... true love, yay! His 'Immortal Beloved' showed up in his life around this time, and you can hear the love in this music from it. :) Sooo Romanitc!!!

    Sousedovi od vedle nedávno zemřela žena. Když chlapeček viděl souseda plakat, vplížil se na jeho dvorek, vlezl mu na klín a jen tam tak zůstal sedět. Když se maminka zeptala, co sousedovi řekl, chlapec odpověděl: "Nic, jen jsem mu pomohl brečet."
    A tak taky s Vámi posedím. Já a tato hudba člověka, který ač čtvrt tisíciletí po smrti, stále nás všechny dojímá a vybízí tiše společně posedět.

Beethoven followed a more classic strucure in some concertos but knew perfectly how to bring back the same melody in different forms. I cannot say who is a better compositer but you cannot say that Mozart was far less talented than Beethoven. He created the perfect balance between the piano solo and the orchestra in a piano concerto which was causing trouble to compositers before him. Both are genius and both are to be respected.

    The difference between Beethoven and Mozart is that while Mozart helped you hear the complexities of music, Beethoven helped you FEEL them. Beethoven was able to construct melody upon melody and build themes unlike Mozart was able to. Mozart had some of the most developed and ingenious pieces ever put to writing, however Beethoven’s thematic prowess is unmatched. In my humble opinion, Ludwig van Beethoven was and always will be the single greatest musical mind that ever walked the Earth.
