Beethoven. Moonlight sonata. 1st movement. This whole sonata has been one of the most requested pieces, so here is the 1st movement! The next two movements will be coming soon, in a few months, unfortunately I'm not good enough to sightread the 3rd at tempo :( I just want to thank you all for being here and watching my videos, I'm practicing hard for something special for you next week!
When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Beethoven was buried. Terrified, the drunk ran and got the priest to come and listen to it. The priest bent close to the grave and heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from the grave. Frightened, the priest ran and got the town magistrate. When the magistrate arrived, he bent his ear to the grave, listened for a moment, and said, "Ah, yes, that's Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, being played backwards." He listened a while longer, and said, "There's the Eighth Symphony, and it's backwards, too. Most puzzling." So the magistrate kept listening; "There's the Seventh... the Sixth... the Fifth..." Suddenly the realization of what was happening dawned on the magistrate; he stood up and announced to the crowd that had gathered in the cemetery, "My fellow citizens, there's nothing to worry about. It's just Beethoven decomposing."
Fun fact, this was composed during the period when Beethoven’s hearing was deteriorating but not entirely gone, he could hear lower notes better than the higher ones then, hence the low notes in this song. Even then, he managed to produce this beautiful composition despite his condition.
o cool, I like his attitude, imagine the sonorities ringing through the castle or wherever he was staying while he was there with a piano or a band. Sometimes I wonder if they could be heard through the whole town on a quiet night while they were practising/composing/jamming? 💯
I don't think there were any bands in that time, besides orchestras and bands of street musicians. Any person in that time isn't anywhere "with a piano". The piano is with them. More precisely they are (mostly) bound by where some piano is. It's always been difficult to move those things anywhere. You wouldn't simply travel with it.
@@ViliamF. Ignore that guy. He's on crack or something. "Jammin" with a "band" he said. "While he was there with a piano" like you'd be somewhere with a guitar. As if you're just going to strap up a grand piano, sling it over your back, and travel around with one. 🤣
I highly recommend learning it, it's a blast to learn and rather easy to remember compared to other pieces...for a long time I could only play the first page but now that I can play the whole thing I have to say every second of practicing was worth it
I love it too. I even played this at home by learning it myself. It's like the spirit of Beethoven wanted me to play it. I have always felt a connection to the great musician, like a son to him.
@@akshatgupta5722 I read what you said loud and clear, I just don't agree, we are all entitled to your own opinion, I'm just saying many people who do know more about classical music still do.
My dads dad used to olay this alot. He never really was able to finish it because he got super ill and eventually passed away. 2 years before i was born. My dad hold me just today, that this piece is not about beeing able to hit the right notes at the right time, but to put emotion into the song. What a beautifull piece of art. R.I.P
My grandpa once said “The piano is the sound of what you feel, even if sad, angry, lost, or aching it will always manages to find its way to sound like a happy piano”
This is the only piece I piano music that I taught myself to play by ear whilst sailing the 7 seas in the Royal Navy back in the 70's and 80's. It's so sad that these days are gone. When my time is up I want this to be played at my Funeral and Bright Eyes Art Garfunkel so I can RIP. Thank you for the music the songs are singing...
This is my favorite classical piece and I just love how this is played, so much. When I need to stop overthinking or unwind, I play this and close my eyes, and suddenly my mind is blank
Hello. My dad really liked that song, today he unfortunately passed away from covid and we are listening to these songs at his wake because he liked them a lot. Now every time I hear this song it will bring back good memories of my father. To whoever has read my comment, take care of yourself and blessings to all his family.
the third movement is difficult for sure but the first is still very technically difficult and I would say if you could learn the first, like really learn it you could learn the third with enough practice!
it is interesting, it plays as if it will pick up speed and keeps pulling back to a slower pace, back and forth, back and forth. you would think it would become clunky. atleast thats what i get out of it, such genius in a simple piece of music.
@@rickspalding3047 spot on! This arrangement reminds me of waves lapping up and back at a beach, not the atmosphere but the patterns sort of haha like a weird metaphore.
I sent my brother a picture of the moonlight pouring through my window and the plants on the sill last night and this morning he sent me a lovely text of seeing the moon as he drove home on Friday and that it brought the Moonlight Sonata immediately to his mind. So...now I am listening to it again...a beautiful start to my day. Thank you, little brother!
Imagine how proud beethoven must have been after creating this masterpiece it is music that will stand the test of time I absolutely love it and always will
He was proud, but it I heard he didnt like the popularity of this sonata, because he felt the other sonatas he wrote were better and didnt receive the same attention
Playing this song in the rain and listening to not only the music but the raindrops makes me feel this comfort but also this depression. It’s simply breathtaking .
well tytyty. i've been playing this piece for about 50 years {first movement only, so far ...}. it's a gorgeous piece of music and it's quite clear to see why it is so loved and so played by so many. however, i have always played a couple of the base notes incorrectly. it's those double sharp things that always messed me up. i stumbled across you recently when i told myself i must try somehow and find a way to find out what i was doing wrong. i tell ya, i wish we would have had you in those good old days. all you lucky new young 'uns. relearning a piece that you've played incorrectly all this time is tough, but with your ideal view point looking down i've been able to see the correct notes being played and have corrected my playing and now sound as good as you ... well i could only wish, but i'm getting there. thanks again, what a wonderful way to learn. love and peace to you and all, xxxxxxx
this truly is one of the most beautiful piano pieces in my opinion. it’s amazing how beethoven created these masterpieces while struggling with his deafness.
@@Gyujvy9iu7i he was partially deaf and couldn’t hear the highest of the highest notes, that is why you would notice that the song is mostly in the lower octaves.
In the Beethoven' s Sonata quasi una Fantasia, op 27 no 2, the 1-st movement, Adagio, is considered the first piece composed in romantic style, it marks the begining of the romantism in music.
When I was in fourth grade, I was being bullied a lot. I've always had a hard time talking to people, and I liked more to read during lunch than to converse. My teacher did nothing about the bullying, even when my OT counselor came in one day, observed what was going on, and complained directly to the principal. I don't remember much at all about 4th grade, leading me to suspect I may have blocked most of my memories from that year. There was only one person who stood up for me, and was the only one nice to me. I'll call him Martin for privacy's sake. Martin was the only one who would tell the bullies to leave me alone, and would help me out when I needed. One thing I remember distinctly about him was that he didn't like pizza, which, for a 9-year old me, was very strange. One day, our class went to the music room, and there Martin played a small part of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. I was captivated, and I believe that moment to be the one where I decided to take piano lessons. I've been playing for about 6 years now, and wouldn't be here if it weren't for Martin and Moonlight Sonata. Shortly after, Martin moved away. I transferred to a private school for the rest of 4th grade, and had the best time at the private school. I loved my classmates there, and I loved my teacher. At the end of the year, he handed out these trophies to all of us. Mine was the Bravery Award, for overcoming hurdles that were not present for the other students. I still have the trophy.
Reading whilst listening to the video made the story 10x more interesting. Sorry about the bullying though, been there done that. Glad we both got through it, my friend. You still talk to Martin?
There's beauty in pain and sadness, can't explain it, but I think a lot of real artists pick up on it and can translate that to others through their work.
@@soundz1233I watched tutorial and i memorised the entire piece today! now i can play it fully and im so happy! idk if you kept learning but i recommend it
@@RamanSharma-zk1bj yeah its relatively easy to learn it took me about a month with little experience so you can probably learn it easily there is no hard to play part the only hard thing is that its 7 minutes long, dont give up and you will eventually play the entire piece
This piece.. I went from hating it to loving it.. hating it because when my beloved father was bed ridden for 8 years and I was his carer he’d start his day with this piece, and I’d say “ dad do u want me to skip this?” Hoping he’d say yes, only to respond with “no” it would depress me and make me cry, obviously not infront of my father tho.. he passed away last year, and suddenly had the urge to learn it which I did, I imagine myself playing it to him whilst he lays.. I have to play it everyday everyday once. It’s a beautiful piece, one of pain, sorrow and closure. It brings it all out.
Hussain Shugaa listen to neon gravestones by twenty one pilots. it is a very powerful song about suicide prevention and it happens to be this piece with modified keys..
I understand what you mean. My grandparents passed away and a friend within a year of each other and I play Chopin's prelude in e minor every single day as my way of saying goodbye and to let them know that they're still in my thoughts
this isn't a song please... people need to stop making this terrible mistake, this is making me CRINGE ! A song has LYRICS... THIS IS MUSIC, or a "PIECE" but most definitely not a song 😫
@Sarah HAMIA my bad, but for fuck's sake, stop nitpicking dude. Doesn't matter if it's a song or a piece. The meaning of the statement still remains the same regardless of what i call it.
I recently started learning this piece. I'm young, and my music teacher told me that this song is for the high schoolers. This song is beautiful to me and I needed to learn it. I printed out notes and you playing it helped me so much, since there are parts which sounded ""weird"" to me, and I figured it out. I'm almost done with this song, thank you for playing it.
I had an epiphany moment when I was a kid because of a friend's love of classical music. I went to his house to buy a computer from him, and he invited me into his room and said "You've got to listen to this!" and proceeded to play a record of Beethoven and I was blown away. Not by Beethoven at the time but by my friend, who was as excited by this music as others were of contemporary popular music. And I did start listening to classical after that. I don't think that we are superior, but there is a difference between Classical, planned music, and popular music. I only play popular music, on piano and guitar, but I get lost in classical and other planned musics. One of the most engrossing forms today is a well written and performed movie soundtrack especially one that is very well used in a good movie. My favorite composer of that genre is Klaus Badelt.
sorta fun fact: i heard that beethoven wrote this for someone he loved because they were new to piano and it was easy and the 3rd movement was something he wrote out of spite when his heart was broken. A true 1800s bruh moment.
Excellent - at 52 I am starting to learn piano. I hope I am still around in the coming years to be able to play it. Fantastic Moonlight Sonata ...pretty spiritual to me.
Starts with a haunting sound of mystery and agony. It shakes me. Sends chills down my spine. It's dark and beautiful. It conveys a sense of sadness, which is why it's amazing. Find the beauty in it's sadness, like a mother that finds goodness in her son no matter how sad he makes her feel. Or a lover that is hurt by his partner but can never leave. Sometimes, our darkest side is what makes us beautiful. I listen to this and remember how true emotion translate into music. You're a legend Beethoven, but were a person in pain composing this movement. Thank you for sharing your pain. for allowing us to realize that sadness in music is sometimes what makes us happy. How ironic. edit: thanks for the likes everyone. Hope you find peace amidst the chaos. We all need it
Omg wow!! I'm only Grade 3 but I've finished all my Abrsm peices and I don't really know what to play right now but I don't think I'm a high enough garde to learn this peice haha. How did you learnt this by the way, did you just watch videos or print the sheet of music and sight read it? Congrats again for comleteing the peice, that's such an accomplishment 👏
@@annegitau2931 aww thank you so so much!! what I did was break it up into little pieces, memorize those one by one until it was like a 15-30 second section and I would practice each section untill I had it down and then repeat. I would spend like an hour or so maybe on each section (or just until I got frustrated to be honest). also before I started a new section or when I was frustrated I would run through everything I already learned to remember. Some of the sections that were harder for me I wrote down and practiced a lot to make it a little easier until I had it memorized. I'm not sure if that helps at all but that's what worked out for me. I can't read music at all or anything but because have good muscle memory and learn fast so this worked out for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I just realized how much I wrote lol I hope it helped a little :) good luck with the piece!
The First one is Right But i would say that the second one is More like having fun at Night and The third one is Like a City Waking up in a Rush to go to work
And here I am again, hiding in this beautiful video of a great piano player performing this beautiful piece of music... For personal things, I stop by to listen once again to Moonlight Sonata bc it has always given me peace and strength to continue to move on in life even tho I just want to break down and cry until night passes so I can do like nothing happens and be strong for myself. Classical music has been the best gift I've ever received in my life and I'm glad they're one of the reasons I'm still here moving on...
This is truly the most serene piece of music ever written. It jusk makes me admire Beethoven for the genius he was! Only a true musician can visualise him seated on the piano, struggling with deafness while still composing this. *Almost to tears*
I agree. This was his masterpiece for me. And he wrote it nearly completely death 200 years ago and we are still listening. Even more impressive he didnt need a voice to draw us in. Just a piano. What a talent. One of the best ever.
Is it normal that I spend hours at night in the dark alone listening to this song and just thinking? Holy moly what happened here? Guess a lot of people felt the same
Yes, yes, a million times yes! This is one of my favorites to play! I love the minor key tonality of this piece. More songs like this please. Edit: The visuals look fantastic in white. It gives just a soft cast of light that's beautifully appropriate for this piece.
As a piano/music maker, watching people play this is beautiful in all ways, but when you play it yourself, you actually experience the feelings and emotions that this piece holds, it’s ok to shed a tear playing this piece, because I did, and I’ll never forget it...Beethoven is one of the best composers out there, thank you Beethoven....we will never forget you ❤️😢
AltoonaYourPiano its not easy to play there are parts where people with small hands struggle quite a bit. And to be able to play staccato and original in one is not easy imo
Ludwig van Beethoven was a German pianist and composer widely considered to be one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time. His innovative compositions combined vocals and instruments, widening the scope of sonata, symphony, concerto and quartet.
By far, hands down, my absolute favorite piano song ever composed. There's something so moving, tragic, melancholy, and yet utterly beautiful. He was a genius, and you can imagine how he was feeling because he makes you feel it, too...
This is my favourite piece of classical music. I've loved it since I was a child. When I was five, my mother played this on the piano, and I cried from it - just because of the power of the minor keys. It's a beautiful piece and you do it such justice.
My elderly next door neighbour used to play this, could always hear it through the walls and it brought such joy yet such sadness. She is the sweetest kindest soul youd ever meet. A jewish widow with numbers tattoed on her wrist...do i need to say more? Reminds me of humanitys inhumanity to our fellow beings, i can never stop crying when i hear this piece, and yes im crying writying this right now
Some people are ranking the movements but they aren't even pianists. The first movement: medium The second movement: difficult The third movement: a mad mans game
I was 8 years old when this was played on some Goosebumps episode....I spent YEARS searching for it, thinking it was the most beautiful song ever written...until I found it finally on the OG Napster, and I can now say, 28 years later this is still the most beautiful song ever written.
I still remember hearing this for the first time at school in the 90's on some random PC game and it made me feel emotions I'd never felt before. It has forever remained a testiment to the primal power of music for me.
When I listen to this piece, I always get this feeling of a story: September 1939, A village in Poznan, Poland. A Jewish family, A father, his wife, and a young and talented Pianist live in a small village, the young boy was sort of a celebrity there. He was a very bright youth, many wondered how is he not a city boy? One night, as the family prepared to sleep and the boy was playing the piano, their radio suddenly turned on, it reported "On September 6,1939 .The German Third Reich has invaded our country and are now headed to Warsaw. Rumors also arise that the Soviet Union will likely join as part of the Non-Agression pact." The radio managed to send the broadcast before suddenly stopping, the Father was worried about his family's safety, he brought out a rifle as Planes buzzed around the village, it would soon unleash hell. The boy ran towards the stairs and down to the basement, just in time before the village was bombed, he braced him self under the sturdy stair case. It soon went quiet though, the planes could no longer be heard, he went out to investigate, all he found was rubble around the village and the bodies of his parents crushed on the debris, he was filled with grief, he approached the piano, which was still intact by a miracle ,with only the moon's light to guide him, he Played Moonlight Sonata. German soldiers began to arrive but were awed upon hearing it. An officer was frustrated that his men were hesitating to advance, so he took a rifle and shot at the young boy, it hit his left shoulder. In defiance, he kept on playing, before finishing the piece, and slumping on the piano. Dying of blood loss, a tragic story.
I've been memorizing this piece for the past few weeks. It's one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever heard which is why i really enjoy playing it. I just got a new digital piano and it's so much fun playing on a full size keyboard.
EXPOSICION: Introducción dura hasta 0:29 Frase A o Tema 1, hasta 1:00 Frase B o Tema 2, hasta 1:34 Vuelve a Frase A, hasta 2:19 DESARROLLO: Empieza en el 2:20 Frase A o Tema 1, hasta 3:12 Frase B o Tema 2, hasta 4:07 REEXPOSICION: Repite la Tema 1 de la exposición hasta 4:26 Hace un puente para pasar a la Frase B, que dura de 4:27 a 4:33 La Frase B de la Reexposicion, empieza en 4:34, es distinta a la Frase B de la Exposición y dura hasta 6:34 La CODA dura desde 6:35 hasta el final de la obra
When I was in preschool, they played classical music during naptime. I would stay awake and play with my shoes until Moonlight Sonata would play. As soon as it started to end, I would fall right to sleep. It's my favorite piece to this day.
The 2nd and 3rd movement may be more advanced, but in terms of musicality and beauty, the 1st movement is much more pleasing to the ear as it is portrays emotional depth and connects our feelings to the piece in a profound matter.
I wish good luck to every body. I am personally trying to wrap up learning rondo alla turca and I will also be joining everyone in learning this beautiful melody.
Beethoven. Moonlight sonata. 1st movement. This whole sonata has been one of the most requested pieces, so here is the 1st movement!

i will never understand the complex mystery this arrangement has on me. never get tired of listening to it
it is interesting, it plays as if it will pick up speed and keeps pulling back to a slower pace, back and forth, back and forth. you would think it would become clunky. atleast thats what i get out of it, such genius in a simple piece of music.
Same here man. Hands down my favorite piece, so thoughtful yet so mysterious
This music piece tells the story of Beethoven when he was deaf if you imagine it
Right I love Beethoven music, I make Hip Hop beats but I love classical music
@@rickspalding3047 spot on! This arrangement reminds me of waves lapping up and back at a beach, not the atmosphere but the patterns sort of haha like a weird metaphore.
Sadness, Joy, calm, relaxation, Wonder, this master piece takes you all over
A lot of people say the first movement is not that hard. But to keep the consistency of the note presses and slowness is actually very hard
Me: Let's Lear a new song:D
Very true. Also, bringing out the melody in this piece is very, very important, something many people don't realize.
Agreed. Started learning it a few days ago. Harder than it sounds.
Pedals are everything in this song.
To play it right, is hard... Pressing notes is easy, but playing with emotions is hard

3rd movement: Let me introduce my self

I sent my brother a picture of the moonlight pouring through my window and the plants on the sill last night and this morning he sent me a lovely text of seeing the moon as he drove home on Friday and that it brought the Moonlight Sonata immediately to his mind. So...now I am listening to it again...a beautiful start to my day. Thank you, little brother!
Imagine how proud beethoven must have been after creating this masterpiece it is music that will stand the test of time I absolutely love it and always will
Simp
True dat!
Yes I am very proud
@@LudwigVanBeethoven-zw5fqwhen you finished the piece, was it raining outside?
He was proud, but it I heard he didnt like the popularity of this sonata, because he felt the other sonatas he wrote were better and didnt receive the same attention
People said it was impossible for beethoven to learn music, but what did he do? He didnt listen to them
Lol
Oh my
That's dark. I love it
I dont think he did a lot of listening towards the end of his days-
Goddamnit. Who turned the lights off?
Playing this song in the rain and listening to not only the music but the raindrops makes me feel this comfort but also this depression. It’s simply breathtaking .
That's a nice picture though :)

Have you listened to Chopin’s Raindrop sonata?
@@sungenhou yes I have. Love that one 🥰🌧️
well tytyty.
i've been playing this piece for about 50 years {first movement only, so far ...}.
it's a gorgeous piece of music and it's quite clear to see why it is so loved and so played by so many.
however, i have always played a couple of the base notes incorrectly.
it's those double sharp things that always messed me up.
i stumbled across you recently when i told myself i must try somehow and find a way to find out what i was doing wrong.
i tell ya, i wish we would have had you in those good old days.
all you lucky new young 'uns.
relearning a piece that you've played incorrectly all this time is tough, but with your ideal view point looking down i've been able to see the correct notes being played and have corrected my playing and now sound as good as you ... well i could only wish, but i'm getting there.
thanks again, what a wonderful way to learn.
love and peace to you and all,
xxxxxxx
this truly is one of the most beautiful piano pieces in my opinion. it’s amazing how beethoven created these masterpieces while struggling with his deafness.
You could say he didn't hear the music he felt it
I believe he wasnt deaf at the time he wrote this piece.
@@Gyujvy9iu7i he was partially deaf and couldn’t hear the highest of the highest notes, that is why you would notice that the song is mostly in the lower octaves.
In the Beethoven' s Sonata quasi una Fantasia, op 27 no 2, the 1-st movement, Adagio, is considered the first piece composed in romantic style, it marks the begining of the romantism in music.
When I was in fourth grade, I was being bullied a lot. I've always had a hard time talking to people, and I liked more to read during lunch than to converse. My teacher did nothing about the bullying, even when my OT counselor came in one day, observed what was going on, and complained directly to the principal. I don't remember much at all about 4th grade, leading me to suspect I may have blocked most of my memories from that year.
There was only one person who stood up for me, and was the only one nice to me. I'll call him Martin for privacy's sake. Martin was the only one who would tell the bullies to leave me alone, and would help me out when I needed. One thing I remember distinctly about him was that he didn't like pizza, which, for a 9-year old me, was very strange.
One day, our class went to the music room, and there Martin played a small part of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. I was captivated, and I believe that moment to be the one where I decided to take piano lessons. I've been playing for about 6 years now, and wouldn't be here if it weren't for Martin and Moonlight Sonata.
Shortly after, Martin moved away. I transferred to a private school for the rest of 4th grade, and had the best time at the private school. I loved my classmates there, and I loved my teacher. At the end of the year, he handed out these trophies to all of us. Mine was the Bravery Award, for overcoming hurdles that were not present for the other students. I still have the trophy.
this was a nice story, glad it ended up well and you found your way
Nice story man!
Reading whilst listening to the video made the story 10x more interesting. Sorry about the bullying though, been there done that. Glad we both got through it, my friend. You still talk to Martin?
@@thatniggarightthere8055 Thanks, it means a lot ^^ And no, sadly I don't. I never got any contact information from him.

Why something extremely sad is always extremely beautiful?

I think extremely sad and extremely beautiful reminds

There's beauty in pain and sadness, can't explain it, but I think a lot of real artists pick up on it and can translate that to others through their work.
Beautiful lol

@@soundz1233I watched tutorial and i memorised the entire piece today! now i can play it fully and im so happy! idk if you kept learning but i recommend it
That's awesome, is it easy to learn? (I have 1.5 years exp)
@@RamanSharma-zk1bj yeah its relatively easy to learn it took me about a month with little experience so you can probably learn it easily there is no hard to play part the only hard thing is that its 7 minutes long, dont give up and you will eventually play the entire piece
This piece.. I went from hating it to loving it.. hating it because when my beloved father was bed ridden for 8 years and I was his carer he’d start his day with this piece, and I’d say “ dad do u want me to skip this?” Hoping he’d say yes, only to respond with “no” it would depress me and make me cry, obviously not infront of my father tho.. he passed away last year, and suddenly had the urge to learn it which I did, I imagine myself playing it to him whilst he lays.. I have to play it everyday everyday once. It’s a beautiful piece, one of pain, sorrow and closure. It brings it all out.
Im sorry to hear that
Folkert de Vries thank you
Hussain Shugaa listen to neon gravestones by twenty one pilots. it is a very powerful song about suicide prevention and it happens to be this piece with modified keys..

Yes. But it's still music. and not a song
I recently started learning this piece. I'm young, and my music teacher told me that this song is for the high schoolers. This song is beautiful to me and I needed to learn it. I printed out notes and you playing it helped me so much, since there are parts which sounded ""weird"" to me, and I figured it out. I'm almost done with this song, thank you for playing it.
Such a beautiful song. It's a shame that so few people enjoy classical music. My friends always thought I was weird for enjoying classical music.
darkwzrd4 we are weird, but that’s what makes us superior
Taste in music??
They think im weird when I listen to it, but then when I play it, they either get jelous or cry.
I'd prefer Beethoven over drake any day
I had an epiphany moment when I was a kid because of a friend's love of classical music. I went to his house to buy a computer from him, and he invited me into his room and said "You've got to listen to this!" and proceeded to play a record of Beethoven and I was blown away. Not by Beethoven at the time but by my friend, who was as excited by this music as others were of contemporary popular music. And I did start listening to classical after that. I don't think that we are superior, but there is a difference between Classical, planned music, and popular music. I only play popular music, on piano and guitar, but I get lost in classical and other planned musics. One of the most engrossing forms today is a well written and performed movie soundtrack especially one that is very well used in a good movie. My favorite composer of that genre is Klaus Badelt.
I felt like he wrote this from a dark place in his heart, with loneliness like a pond skimmed over by moonlight.

@@sandro__lp but he was deaf enough to contemplate suicide. 70%~80% deaf is still a devastating disability.
Right?
@@choo1030 nobody is doubting his troubles, its just he totally knew what it sounded like
When he wrote this he still had a lot of his hearing, so he could hear it
Just love how you manage to get the forte note with the pinkie.. this note is the soul of this piece!
Starts with a haunting sound of mystery and agony. It shakes me. Sends chills down my spine. It's dark and beautiful. It conveys a sense of sadness, which is why it's amazing. Find the beauty in it's sadness, like a mother that finds goodness in her son no matter how sad he makes her feel. Or a lover that is hurt by his partner but can never leave. Sometimes, our darkest side is what makes us beautiful. I listen to this and remember how true emotion translate into music. You're a legend Beethoven, but were a person in pain composing this movement. Thank you for sharing your pain. for allowing us to realize that sadness in music is sometimes what makes us happy. How ironic.
edit: thanks for the likes everyone. Hope you find peace amidst the chaos. We all need it

How did you learnt this by the way, did you just watch videos or print the sheet of music and sight read it? Congrats again for comleteing the peice, that's such an accomplishment 👏
@@annegitau2931 aww thank you so so much!! what I did was break it up into little pieces, memorize those one by one until it was like a 15-30 second section and I would practice each section untill I had it down and then repeat. I would spend like an hour or so maybe on each section (or just until I got frustrated to be honest). also before I started a new section or when I was frustrated I would run through everything I already learned to remember. Some of the sections that were harder for me I wrote down and practiced a lot to make it a little easier until I had it memorized. I'm not sure if that helps at all but that's what worked out for me. I can't read music at all or anything but because have good muscle memory and learn fast so this worked out for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I just realized how much I wrote lol I hope it helped a little :) good luck with the piece!
I'm trying to learn this piece too but I only play by ear bc I unfortunately can't read sheet music on piano

dont forget that he did music while being deaf. He was truly feeling it
By far, hands down, my absolute favorite piano song ever composed. There's something so moving, tragic, melancholy, and yet utterly beautiful. He was a genius, and you can imagine how he was feeling because he makes you feel it, too...
My mother used this song to get rid of her emotions and it was so nice listening to her play sadly she died when I was 9 though...

When I listen to this piece, I always get this feeling of a story:
September 1939, A village in Poznan, Poland. A Jewish family, A father, his wife, and a young and talented Pianist live in a small village, the young boy was sort of a celebrity there. He was a very bright youth, many wondered how is he not a city boy? One night, as the family prepared to sleep and the boy was playing the piano, their radio suddenly turned on, it reported
"On September 6,1939 .The German Third Reich has invaded our country and are now headed to Warsaw. Rumors also arise that the Soviet Union will likely join as part of the Non-Agression pact." The radio managed to send the broadcast before suddenly stopping, the Father was worried about his family's safety, he brought out a rifle as Planes buzzed around the village, it would soon unleash hell. The boy ran towards the stairs and down to the basement, just in time before the village was bombed, he braced him self under the sturdy stair case. It soon went quiet though, the planes could no longer be heard, he went out to investigate, all he found was rubble around the village and the bodies of his parents crushed on the debris, he was filled with grief, he approached the piano, which was still intact by a miracle ,with only the moon's light to guide him, he Played Moonlight Sonata. German soldiers began to arrive but were awed upon hearing it. An officer was frustrated that his men were hesitating to advance, so he took a rifle and shot at the young boy, it hit his left shoulder. In defiance, he kept on playing, before finishing the piece, and slumping on the piano. Dying of blood loss, a tragic story.
I actually like this story

Link for the digital piano?

When Elise dumps you.
Tom Ashby I heard that Elise was a little girl, but ok
Tigran Shahbazyan I know. I heard that Elise was a little girl that asked Beethoven to compose something simpler that she could play too.
@@filthy5casual "Simpler"
Technically the middle of Fur Elise is what happens when Elise dumps you
@@TabooTalz yea the middle part isn't so difficult:/
When I was in preschool, they played classical music during naptime. I would stay awake and play with my shoes until Moonlight Sonata would play. As soon as it started to end, I would fall right to sleep. It's my favorite piece to this day.
Am I the only one who prefers the first movement to the second and third
No , I prefer the First movement too.
I like the first movement too it’s creepy in a nice way
The 2nd and 3rd movement may be more advanced, but in terms of musicality and beauty, the 1st movement is much more pleasing to the ear as it is portrays emotional depth and connects our feelings to the piece in a profound matter.
I like the 3rd movement because I hate slow things for some reason. Don't know why tho.
I fell in love with the first movement. As for the rest, well let's say they're not my type
It looks easy , but when you start playing it's so difficult
I am trying to learn this one, but it is soo difficult for me:))))
@Jordan Kuzniak-Lewis exactly! I've been practicing hard for a week now and i can play the first 50 secs of the video and still going. Dont give up!
@@jadassaf180 Slow wifi :(
I wish good luck to every body. I am personally trying to wrap up learning rondo alla turca and I will also be joining everyone in learning this beautiful melody.
@@madalinaciceu1783 Dont give up. At the end of the struggle of learning listening to what you learned will be the best possible reward.
who hurt you
cirrhosis
Diarrhea
Your mum
😂😂😂
Technically nobody hurt him to cover this piece he did it out of free will.
Truly fitting for the eminence in shadow
is Music but when Beethoven created this piece made WITH feelings
