Description

Beethoven composed the Sonata for piano number 14 in 1801 and presented it to his 17-year-old student, Countess Giulietta Guicciardi. Several years after Beethoven's death, German poet and music critic Ludwig Rellstab compared the smooth melodies in the first chapter of his work to the moonlight on Lake Lucerne. Since then this music has been known to everyone as the "Moonlight Sonata". The "Moonlight Sonata" is so fanciful, and even its birth there are many anecdotes. Here is a famous anecdote about the origin of this timeless music. In 1801, Beethoven was living in the world music capital of Vienna - the capital of Austria. To cover the difficulties in everyday life, in addition to composing, Beethoven also taught the daughters of nobles. Beethoven is ugly but has an amorous artist's heart. He fell in love with one of his students, Giulietta Guicciardi. The young woman also seemed to know that, but just silence made Beethoven even more hopeful. However, that feeling of Beethoven was rejected when he addressed Giulietta under the flower of her house one evening after the teaching was completed. Desperate and painful, that night Beethoven wandered aimlessly in Vienna and stood alone on the bridge over the beautiful green Danube. It was a very bright moonlit night, Beetthoven seemed to awaken as he immersed himself in a quiet space filled with moonlight with the sparkling water of the Danube River. Vienna has fallen into a deep sleep, only the painful musician who has a unilateral love standing alone in the middle of the sky is soaked with moonlight. Somewhere a piano sounded in the distance, a sound as if it was a soul that led Beethoven's footsteps unconsciously to a house in the poor working area. There was only the father sitting there listening to his blind daughter playing the piano. The miserable father told Beethoven that his daughter had only one lifelong dream to see the moonlight on the Danube, but he could never bring her that simple happiness. Touched by a father's affection for his daughter and amazed at the blind young woman's chirping piano, Beethoven sat on the guitar and began to play. The musical notes resounded spontaneously, rushing to follow the fierce emotions of the genius composer, sometimes gentle as the moonlight, sometimes as strong as the Danube waves. It seems that there is no strenuous life with daily worries, no more painful life fragments, despairing tragedy, but only a magical, shimmering fairy-tale world. Music sounded in moonlight, soaked in moonlight, bathed in moonlight, lingering in every drop of aspirational emotion that broke the curse of fate
