Student's Corner: Moonlight sonata: How hard is it? by chongkeat
I want to learn this piece, but I have some questions.
1. Can it be played on a 61-key keyboard?
2. Is it suitable for my skill level? I've tried Nocturne Op9No2, so is it around that level of difficulty?

Thanks.

Student's Corner: Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata 1st movement help plz by 10761151100
I try to play the Beethoven's piece: Moonlight Sonata 1st movement. I love to play this piece when I listen to it. When I play the piece to the bar 5, 6, and so on, I see the notes lie between the treble clef and the bass one. In the treble clef and bass clef, there are some notes too. It looks like the picture below:

I got stuck continuing playing the piece and it made me confused. Can anyone give me advices to play these bars in the piece? Thank you very much.
Performance: Moonlight vs. The Tempest by sakhmet
Ok, I have this competition coming up in seven months and I am unsure as to what sonata to learn.  I have to learn either the first or last movement of one sonata and its a toss up between the third movement of The Tempest or the third movement of Moonlight Sonata.  Which do you think is a better show piece? 
The rest of my pieces are Heroique Polonaise by Chopin, Etude Tableaux Op 33 no 6 by Rachmaninoff, Prelude and Fugue in C Minor from the first Well Tempered Clavier by Bach, and there is a toss up between the first movement of BB 88 Bartok Sonata or Etude op 18 - 1 by Bartok.  I would really appreciate your opinion! WHich sonata do you think would compliment this regimen the most?

Repertoire: beethoven by harris27

Performance: Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata - 3rd movement by jlmap
How can I learn to play the arpeggios of the first compasses clearly? Must I study it slowly and articulating the fingers? Must I play always with the metronome?

Thanks!
Repertoire: Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata by frigo
Hi !
I have seen in the graded chart list that the whole sonata is graded 8.

What is the grade of the first movement? Anyone knows?
As a beginner, I don't find it very transcendental, or am I wrong?

Hi,

what do you think about the opinions given at:

http://classicalmusicblog.com/2007/09/beethoven-sonata.html

I have no idea who the author is, nor anything about his musical background.

I do not have a fine ear, so i ask you (that surely have a much better one) whether you agree with many observations made there.

For instance, speaking about the first theme of 1° movement:

<<Only Barenboim, Kissin, Pletnev, Ashkenazy, Lupu and Rubinstein can be said to have a true polyrhythm... (skip)...Brendel, Kempff and Schnabel have really got it wrong>>

??? ???

<<There are many wrong notes in other recordings, and they are the result of ‘missing’ the right ones, but it is difficult to explain why Barenboim plays a d-natural instead of e towards the end of the third bar in the A major connecting theme>>

Can you hear that?  ??? ???

<<There is only one perfect recording of the third movement, and it is by Jenö Jandó>>

??? ???


Any opinions?

Anyone has any suggestions on how fast one should play the 3rd movement of this piece? My teacher suggest Corchet = 192. . But its too fast for me. .
