Tragically Beautiful. Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata is one of the composer's most beautiful and haunting pieces... He wrote the tragic piano piece early in his life, and it's continued to capture listeners' hearts for over 200 years.
As your notes suggest, this is a dreamy, sweet melody. Note how the music meanders along as the pianist lingers over certain notes. This is very much part of the Romantic style, in contrast to the metrical regularity of most Baroque and Classical music.The melody is very exposed, with minimal harmonic accompaniment.t is unfortunate that from among the several delightful movements in the Midsummer Night's Dream music the only one included here is the over-familiar Wedding March of Oberon and Titania. Try to listen to it with fresh ears, in its original orchestral garb, as a splashy triumphal march, radiating joy and enthusiasm.
