Moonlight Sonata Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73 A friend of mine recently sent me this link: It's just amazing! You can feel the passion from the way he's playing! It's very beautiful and calming as well. Makes for interesting study music. It's just too bad it's short lol. What do you guys think? Anyone else here likes to listen to classical music?   | ||

If you just recently started listening to classical music and you enjoy Beethoven, I would also recommend the following: | ||

And if you get to a time when you tire of Beethoven, and are ready for something a little better, try Bach: Glenn Gould, a famous pianist and classical music commentator said, if I remember an interview/documentary right and paraphrase correctly, that Beethoven's music was about the struggle to achieve transcendence, and the magic comes from the struggle. For Bach, there was no struggle. It was effortless. It took me a long time to appreciate Bach. For a long time I thought it boring. Not anymore. Like certain books, sometimes you are not ready for certain music, until you are ready . | ||

Love Beethoven's 6th Symphony too. By the way: Is it normal to like classical music at age 23? | ||

@ XDJuiceBox: You are right about Horowitz. I listened to his Rach 3 before going to bed last night. It is fantastic. @ OP: Thanks for posting the Beethoven PC no.5. It's been a very long time since I heard it. I listened to it again, just now, at 4 in the am, and it hit me hard in a way that it never had before. Ethereal beauty just about begins to describe it. | ||

The audacity, the daring...I love how he looks so uninterested, but creates some of the most expressive music I've ever heard :D | ||
