Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement is one of the most exhilarating songs I've ever heard, if not the most. I can't believe a piece of music written a few hundred years ago still sounds so modern and exciting and new, it's an incredible work.

I urge everyone to listen to it, specifically the 3rd movement. It really shocks me that Beethoven or anyone could write a piece of music so brilliant like that!



One of my favorite 'reinterpretations' of the piece is by Meganeko, link here:

There's many movements like that through his sonatas. You might enjoy the Sonata no 27 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLzQbyWfBnY

it starts with a catching rhythmic pattern, it gets calm and lyrical but it builds up to incredible heights.
