L.V. Beethoven Moonlight Sonata C# min, Op. 27, No. 2, 1st mvt

Published 2024-07-16
This somber first movement holds a challenge in voicing the melody and sustaining rhythmic momentum through the phrases. I am not editing the video, as to do so causes a lag from audio to video when uploading and I'm not that tech savvy. It's marked Adagio sostenuto so it's at about 58 BPM, but at that slow tempo it's hard to keep the dotted half notes ringing with the continued broken chord underneath. The advice senza sordino, is not to use the soft (una chorda) at all. On listening a second time, I wish the bass line came out a bit stronger in the audio. enjoy.
