As Friedrich Gulda hammers his fingers into the piano in Beethoven's 2nd Piano Sonata in A Minor (wait a moment I have to replay that bit) I wonder again about time, its representations, the question if it is an illusion, chronobiology and time's more pragmatic aspects of: When shall I get up? and How long shall I boil my egg?
The slow bits of Beethoven's piano sonatas as for instance the Largo Appassionato of the 2nd, give you time. Time to enjoy music even when writing your blog.
Bamm, bamm, bamm jadada da da bam bam bamm. Brilliant.
Ok, ok let's speed up. It's time for Allegretto at least.
No more hammering, more flying across the keys.
My thoughts also start to speed up.
Which means that I am getting confused.
Ah the Scherzo is over.
Now it's Rondo time.
No stop again.
Let's play the Largo Appassionato one more time.
Click there. Double click choose. Click back.
Close your eyes and enjoy !!!
