Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata

This has to be one of the greatest masterpieces of all time. No matter how many times I hear it the calm beginning creeping into the presto agitato never ceases to stir my spirit.

Don't be selfish, preserve this world for the next generations.

I'll never long for what might have been
Regret won't waste my life again
I won't look back I'll fight to remain

A good friend I went to highschool with used to dig this song. We'd hang out and draw (he was a frikkin prodigy, my 1st and best teacher) and he would tell me how it was the SADDEST MUSIC EVER lol

Strange cuz he ain't a sad kind of guy, but that's the context I was introduced to the music as

Now I don't hear 'sadness' per se, it's curious that's how he interpreted it

It is brilliant and haunting though. Even more impressive when you consider how simple it is.



Beethoven was the one that went deaf, right?

The beginning sounds sad, the later parts seem to be thrilling and full of wonder.

Yup, Bethoven went deaf.
