      Have you listened to his Piano Sonata No. 11 in Bb Major? I was surprised at how “backwards-looking” it is, even as it sits on the doorstep of his middle period. It’s like he had step back to perfect the Second Viennese piano sonata before he could continue his sprint towards the future.

    In "Rage over a lost penny" you can notice the birth of what made Beethoven "Beethoven": his fury, his passion, his greatness, and that powerful bass progression over the cute and light melody; just the like the 3rd, the 5th and parts of his 7th symphony (specially the third movement).

    "Even beethoven looked serious throughout his self-pictures, he is delightful in insides." That was a good sentence. His last musical thought as his last requiem always settle his death good. Unlike Mozart, always having the vibe but on a sorrow look at death which he wrote "unfinished" lacrimosa. Schubert isnt excluded any of all, his "Unfinished Symphony" was full of witherness. Like Mozart, his symphony was unfinished like a requiem. Back to Beethoven, person whom never upsets welcoming his end. Or he thought that,"Every goodness must come to an end."

      Mozart was the Kurt Cobain of classical music. You could feel his inner battle of being torn apart by his father in his later pieces. Which is why he sounds like he was struggling with death. He's still fighting his father until the very end.

      he began losing his hearing at 28, he developed tinnitus first that left him with a constant ringing in his ears and you notice in the music of his 30's he began to use more upper register notes to help him cope. As time goes on his music takes on a lower register as he can no longer hear the upper notes. By the time he was mid 40's he was completely dead and the only reason for it was that he was a slave to fashion he began using the white face makeup that contained ever increasing amounts of lead in them, The lead caused his deafness and his mental instability.

    It is very interesting to me to listen to his emotional evolution through his music over the years. he start light and chirpy, as a small child usually is. As he gets a little older his tones become deeper but still with that lightful-ness of youth with am anticipation of things to come. The prospect of love eternal. Even Rage over a Lost Penny is light and trill, almost as if he finds the experience less angering and more amusing. Why worry over such trivi9al matters?.. at 26 his childhood is squarely behind him and I think we begin to hear the first true 'change' of young Ludwig into a more mature Beethoven; the music reveals an intimate glimpse into a mind who is, perhaps for the first time, thinking about the future. This tune seems, to me at least, to be a little more wary and cautious, reflective of that place between youth and innocence lost.
    His music at this point takes a darker, more frustrated tone. The Viennese Classic period was pretty much at its peak at the turn of the century. By now newer, younger composers were coming out with cloned styles of the greats such as Beethoven, Mozart and Haydn as music moved from primarily being written for the churches to expand in to the realm of public enjoyment. This meant that the music of these clones were becoming more popular and widespread. Perhaps this led to a sense of frustration in Beethoven, et al. Maybe that frustration reveled itself in his music. Or, perhaps, he was becoming more aware that his hearing wasn't as good as it used to be...
    Maybe none of this is true, but we can still hear that cheeriness of youth slipping away by the time Beethoven is in his mid to late twenties.
    Moonlight Sonata is one of my all-time favorite pieces despite evoking feelings of depression and anger. The 1st movement reminds me of a man coming to the realization that nothing lasts forever. As he looks back on his life his vision is perhaps filled with images of his childhood; a boy who would be dragged out of bed by his father when he came home drunk just to force Ludwig to play. What joy could possibly be found in that? A desperate sadness and a longing to be free from the oppression of the ivory keys, with no one to confide in or express how he feels. The 1st movement is pure sorrow and longing.
    The 2nd movement is an answer to that sorrow. It reminds me of a daydream where life is better, where he can just BE himself without a drunken father leering over him.
    Then the 3rd movement. That daydream is shattered by reality. This piece is pure frustration and anger. Resentment. He mocks the music because it is the music which chains him to this unfortunate life. Every part of this piece is a series of questions and answers being asked and answered over and over again, never changing. Never resolved. He's fully trapped in this life and he knows it now. Nearly every piece of music to follow is tainted with that same mocking frustration. Even Ode to Joy, seen as one of the most triumphant pieces of music in history is, in my opinion, LVB basically screaming, spittle-mouthed and flashing eyes at the audience "THERE! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!"
    As fast-paced and bright as some of his following works are, you can still hear the vibrant undertones of sadness and frustration.
    All except one....
    Für Elise. Many believe this to be a love letter from Beethoven to the woman he loved, although her true identity has never been confirmed. The piece is pure emotional torture; as if he loved her from afar but, for whatever reason, never dared to get close. Maybe she was out of reach, possibly already married or of a completely different social standing, but if you listen to this piece carefully, you do not feel love. You feel longing - that reaching out for something that lies just beyond your grasp. A heart which aches but can never be soothed. It's not about love. It's about unrequited love. A love that he probably carried with him until his death.
    Anyway, that's my emotional take on his music. Ludwig van Beethoven has always fascinated me because his music was the first to ever give me an emotional experience when listening. It opened a sense in me that allowed me, I feel, to 'see' beyond the music composition and in a way have a conversation with the composer. Well, maybe not a conversation wherein I take part - more like eavesdropping on the very personal and innermost thoughts of the composer. The only other piece that has affected me in such a way was Mozart's Lacrimosa. That piece is emotional torture as well but for an entirely different reason...

    I consider myself fairly knowledgable about Beethoven, and I was surprised to learn his Op 111- the last piano sonata he wrote- was completed before the Ninth Symphony, which I had considered essentially the gateway of his late period. The extreme hermeticism of the second movement of that sonata reminds me of the eccentricity of his Op. 135 string quartet- music that was written- as he said, for the future, and not for his own time.

      @DeflatingAtheism Před rokem

      Beethoven died too early, it is true, but his late works give the sense of having arrived at a destination. The Ninth Symphony, the Op. 111 piano sonata, and the Op. 131 string quartet all feel like capstones of their respective forms in their particular historical contexts. If you want Beethoven’s Tenth symphony, Mahler wrote it ten times over, and kept going bigger bigger bigger… but not necessarily better. In truth, I sort of feel that if Beethoven were given another decade, he would have broken with common practice harmony and started writing something that sounds more like Messiaen.

    Beethoven lived long enough to pick up two periods of history, in the case of Classicism and Romanticism (he practiced the musical style of Mozart's time as he practiced the musical style of Chopin's time), therefore, and that is why he is called a transitional composer, because he used both styles of each period.
    Now, what I didn't know is that the musical transition started in the beginning of the 19th century and I had never heard that transition style either, it's a little strange.
    But what left me confused is the new style of the period of romanticism that started to emerge in the beginning of the 19th century, whose, in architecture, clothing fashion and painting, classicism lasts until more or less 1815, the period of classicism is accepted that it ends between 1810 and 1815.

      Music is always a “lagging indicator” in broad movements that encompass all of the arts. From the Baroque to Classicism to Romanticism to Expressionism to Modernism and to Post-Modernism, it’s always visual arts in the vanguard and music offering some equivalent years later.
