(Sonata No. 27)

[Nina_too]

Freude, schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium
Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!

 

[kempff]

Nehmt denn hin, ihr schonen seelen
froh die Gaben schoner Kunst.
Wenn sich Lieb' und Kraft vermahlen,
lohnt den Menschen Gottergunst.

Let's all drink a toast to celebrate:

[Antnee]

I don't like white.. uhh.. popcorn...

[chickering9]

I celebrated by doing 27,2.  Surely LVB will forgive my one little slip off one black to an adjacent white.  If I can summon some courage, maybe I'll start one of his other sonatas tonight and promise myself to have it down by this time next year.  It took be two years to get all three movements of 27,2, but I think I could do the next sonata in a year.  I'd really like to tackle 31,2.  I really like that bass line in the 3rd movement.

I posted this in the Anything But Piano thread.  Sorry.... I didn't know it was already here....

Kazoo: *toooooooot*

We need confetti, booze, and a donkey. The night is still young!

[jlh]

Me?  All I need is confetti and a donkey... the booze is taken care of already.

so you celebrate beethoven's birthday, but what about every other composer? poor neglected souls if we're going to do this then i'll just start a new thread for every composer and msician's birthday cos i have them all mwahahaha

[Motrax]

Or we could just have a "who's birthday is it today?" thread. That'd make things easier, no?

yesterday (December 16) was the day of which saint saens died in 1921

Or we could just have a "who's birthday is it today?" thread. That'd make things easier, no?

I like that idea!

[anda]

[Rach3]

Don't forget op. 101! 

[anda]
