No I don't think he would have.

I wanted to read the comment of someone else with a classical background before making one myself. In recognition to your points, I'll be nicer than I was going to. My initial problem was just with the very un-Beethoven-like way the straight sonata was being performed, but interpretation is subjective, so it is what it is. My real point of contention is making such significant changes to a piece should result in something at least as good as the original, and in the case of Op. 27 No. 2, I think that's very nearly impossible. If people like it, then I guess to each their own, but personally I find it a bit cringey.

I was just thinking the same. I think Beethoven and Chopin would love this interpretation, they were revolutionary in the music in their moments. They would have enjoyed this

@@dmwalker24 At the end of the day, if it sounds good and people accepts that it sounds good, it will make them happy.

@@SwiftDustStorm That's certainly true. I'm definitely not interested in trying to tell people what to listen to. End up spending half my life arguing with the Jazz crowd about whether a collection of chord changes even qualifies as a musical piece if I went down that road.

I mean there has been a techno version of Beethoven's 5th for over 20 years, use to blast that in the late 90's in my car.

I thought it was obnoxious and annoying and so would they

I've been looking for this answer to retort to anyone who says Beethoven or Mozart or Chopin or whoever "would turn his back in his coffin" at anyone who makes their music evolve. Only recently have I dived deeper into origins of classical music and how their music wasn't always well-received in their younger days. Acquired tastes must be first be acquired to be enjoyed and appreciated. Thanks DS! Have a merry Christmas, while you're at it.

@@1981stonemonkey Yep, some of our classical masters where shunned, or ignored in their day. And now millions listen to their works, and modern works are being remastered into classical music - amazing how things play out. Those ahead of their time are often looked down upon by the masses. I do hope you are having a great festive period, and have a happy new year.

​@@nightcorerj6024Ironic, considering in their time much of their music was considered obnoxious and annoying in their day, you're opinion ain't everyone's mate.

He's my absolute favourite composer.

@@giftofthewild6665 The great conductor and composer of ‘West Side Story’ Leonard Bernstein, even said he’s the greatest of composers! It think he’s right as Beethoven revolutionized music and changed forever the way it was written and performed. My favorite too!

Like Eddie Van Halen on a guitar. A one of a kind original.

So perfect Kris Justin You brilliantly expressed an anthological and definitive synthesis Bravo for this!

@@yanayrton Thank you for these quotes. It seems like Beethoven was writing from another dimension of reality.

Well said.

Yes!

The original sounds even more awesome tho....

I would even argue that an art piece that 'can't' reach 'general' people, without inside knowledge of the piece and/or genre (no matter the medium), isn't really art at all.

As a man who cannot play any instrumeny except the drum, i expect a lot more from our current composers... But they play all these classics like it is their own creation... It's not their creation and they should be ashamed to not advance in music ... Play your own music..

@@nowandrew4442 I disagree. I have seen a lot of art that does not move me and I do not understand it but to many it is art. Why must people always find fault?

People that are against these kinds of collaborations because the personal feeling and interpretation of enhancing the original diverges from person to person. i personaly know moonlight sonata kills me everytime, but this is not it. its cool, but just not as powerfull as the original, to me personaly. the way that song hits is just indescribable.

Please, see this version: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/edBlZ9Kbx5O3iKM.html

I’d call it devolution. It is impressive, but not in anyway appreciative to the ears. Music should be a joy to listen to. This is not it for me. And that’s not because I think Sonata can be played in just one manner.

I mean, TransSiberian Orchestra exists LOL I do absolutely agree with you, but TSO definitely opened up my eyes to classical music in a new way as a kid and I love that this generation gets all sorts of options like this talented man.

I didn't really like it

Seriously, if Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, or any other classical composer came back to life, and it was my job to show them everything, I would show them the basics of the modern world, and then immediately direct them to a DAW and tell them to go fucking wild. I'm sure if any classical composers had access to modern computers and DAWs, they would've made some of the most insane shit we've ever heard. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Beethoven or Mozart made EDM or dubstep.

Esp if you bear in mind what a disruptive musician Beethoven was in his time.

Im thinking soooo often what classicalmuscisians would think about contemporary music. Heck i'm wondering what queen and MJ would think about their remixes

@@agnes15101968 no doubt. Both Beethoven and Liszt would have loved modern music capabilities.

Not only approve. If Beethoven was alive today, I think this is the music he would be producing.

I'm a pro musician for over fifty years, with a degree, and advanced certificates in Piano, Singing, Music Theory, and Guitar. I think this is total SHITE. Were Beethoven alive, I think he'd at least want a decent-sounding drum machine, not something that sounds like it's from the seventies, and total crap. The piece doesn't need a cheap-sounding gratuitous drum part; if Beethoven wanted drums, I'm sure he would have included some when he composed the piece. FUCKING GARBAGE.

@Marius Piedallu van Wyk I FULLY agree with you. The Moonlight Sonata is one of the MOST moving pieces of music ever conceived. DON'T MESS WITH PERFECTION, there is no need to fix something that isn't broken... I applaud this young mans' technical skills and willingness to attempt things that haven't been done before, as true artistes are always evolving. But sometimes, it's for a very good reason, that pieces of such significance should remain as they are. Like in this case. But I do hope that he continues to expand his knowledge, and the skills of his craft! 🤯😳🙏🙏🙏 ** >>The Moonlight Sonata was written by Luwig Van Beethoven, THE MASTER, and composer of some of the most profoundly moving scores- not only of HIS time, but of ALL time- in spite of being deaf..! Not to state the obvious, but that alone, should be reason enough to let this masterpiece stand. Unchanged. For posterity if for no other reason... PLEASE don't shoot the messenger here, I sincerely wish you the best in your endeavors... 🤔🧐🎶🎹🤲

@@mercychoke4475 It wasn't FIXED... It was Enhanced...

@@mercychoke4475 there's a reason music is so moving for certain people, it's art, but very subjective. Not any piece of music will make two people feel the exact same. I thought this was very creative and moving.

As a former employee I worked at places I hated

@@ajbrown2013 now that was funny. Brilliant actually.

Beethoven would be proud, I'm sure.

@@ediakaran Jealous more likely.

That’s reasonable, but that sound is NOT what Beethoven wrote.

@@ardentynekent2099 I agree and will always listen to what Beethoven wrote ,but it was an interesting change

@@andrewhughes9278 Please friends, also keep in mind that more pop and rock music was inspired by classical music than most people would think. Jazz was derived from very traditional music interpretations. Classical music can be interesting to younger generations if it keeps the ability to adopt and evolve. Our problem nowadays is that we don't have any good composer who would bring an audience together with a 1h piece without singing or some kind of beat. Will classical music die off with the silver backs? Or are we able to find ways to spread the fascination for these melodies?

AMEN to that!!! ❤️😀

Well said! 👏🏻

@NewTypexvii Exactly! 👍🏿 You know the saying, "step out of the box" well I've seen or heard someone say, "one shouldn't be in a box", great way to approach living. This particular piece the first movement is my fave and mesmerizes me. His emotional playing brought me in and I enjoyed this very much. Pretty cool I think ~😎😊

Til he got deaf and sawed the legs off his piano and put his ear to the floor to try to hear.

Yes I too love when he played Fur Elise to the backing track by the name of "Lofi beats to relax/study to"

Beethoven probably would have liked it. He was quite the rebellious one, not at all sticking to tradition. He loved epic music and you can hear that he's basicly the godfather of the romantic epoch in his later masterpieces. Most likely Beethoven would have made a variety of music including modern electronic and metal today. He was a virtuoso, a composer who pushed the boundaries and he was always willing to implement new ideas, that's why I'm pretty sure he would have loved this modern interpretation on his timeless music.

He probably just needed to go to the toilet lol. If he hated it he could've left it much earlier 😂

Yeah, definitely a toilet break, dude was probably holding it in for the sake of watching that masterpiece, and after it was done, he went to the toilet to answer nature’s call as quickly as he could

The man that left quickly probably had to pee and held it for as long as he could.

👏👏👏👏👏👏 well said

Ahhh, that is what it is all about! To be affected!

69th like lol

I teared up as well!!!❤❤❤

I completely agree. Nothing I know about Beethoven suggests that he was any kind of indentured servant to tradition.

Yes. Beethoven would most certainly have absolutely loved this. The bass going through the seats. You bet he'd have jumped up on stage to join in. 😂

Yes people forget most of these composers were all pushing the boundaries and inovating with new sounds constantly!

I agree, I think he'd be amazed with some of the creativity people have now days, added technology and such. Can you imagine the kind of music he'd be making now?

If he could hear it that is

They would've created sounds not too far from the electronic music experiments from before the 1960s, I'd bet my money on it if they were alive today

If you arent familiar with apashe he does electronic music with a lot of classical influence and its freaking amazing

Aaaand now I can't get the image of Beethoven blasting dubstep in a concert hall out of my brain.

This guy gets it. The reason I produce electronic music is because I live music theory so much that I just want to listen to raw sound. If you've never experienced raw chords with just about every tone you could imagine in both ears then you haven't truly just sat and appreciated the frequency relationships by themselves.

@@thenerdbyrd7026 I totally agree with you! Coming from a musical background, I studied Music, did thesis on several composers in music therory and music appreciation back in school. I am also an audiophile and listen beyond the music for the raw sound of the different parts of the music. Music is Life! It's hard to listen to cover bands especially as I listen so closely to each sound, tone, note. This guy played spot on!

piece*

That’s because your sisters playing the orginial moonlight sonata mvt 1 and 3,, imo nothing can top the original but this was amazing

He is creative, the arrangement is interesting, but his technique is not professional yet

@@thomasleguenne8817 agreed. Also, it's kinda chaotic and noisy for me. Totally the opposite of the nature of this composition. I feel it is much more flat and shallow like that, while the original is special.

We had recordings a century ago. Please point me to one where the classical music of that generation was improvised. Someone told you that Baroque musicians had to extemporize, and you ran with it.

I concur. If singers can make music their own, with interpretation, why not classical musicians as well? I found this piece both inspired and moving. My dad is a classical pianist and was a music theory professor for years, and he was all about reproduction. It drove me away from the piano that I could not put myself into the music. I did not want to be a parrot, mimicking someone else's creations. I love that in singing I can put my own twist on a song. I did not even attempt to go professional with anything to do with music because once you have a hit, they expect you to parrot even your own music over and over agian.

I'll takke your classical music is frozen in time and raise you a Hans Zimmer, Ramin djawadi, and Lindsey Sterling

It is okay if classical music is frozen in time -- it is so beautiful -- and since orchestras are still performing it today, that shows you its extreme value. We don't need kids like this to try to modernize and dilute the timeless art form.

This was a stunning rendition!! So beautifully & passionately played. I always appreciate a good remix, and although this is not one you’d think to remix he did so with so much excitement and so beautifully done. I so appreciate hearing this today! 🙌💞

Imagine what the big Ludwig van would have done with this kind of sounds afterwards!

@@Kommitanz I think he would have loved it. He would have loved the phenomenal artist, and he would have loved the courage with which the artist operates with this powerful piece of music. Sometimes I think there are dimensions we don't know, somewhere beyond our understanding, beyond life and death. And there we all will meet one day and admire what happens when Beethoven and those artists work together.

I love this . However played as it was written is also very special. I heard Rubinstein do it and it was as perfect as I could perceive! ❤

brilliant playing...but this one didn`t work for me...Beethoven would have rolled over too....

@@delloso6205 You're right. That guy messed up the subtlety and dynamics of the original with his over the top butchering. He's right about one thing: No one saw it coming, but I'm thinking many wish that they had. That way they could have gotten a refund beforehand. #RolloverLudwig We apologize to you for this blasphemy, sir.

Beethoven once said “To play a wrong note is insignificant. To play without passion is inexcusable!”

NOT Beethoven hahaha. But I get what you're saying

Omg. I’m not deaf, but I believe I am approaching that point.. perhaps asymptomatically. But I play guitar and one day a few years ago, noticed I suddenly could not tell two pitches apart anymore… ever since I’ve been learning to hear by feel better and better (I’m pretty dang good now) and just hold my guitar tighter as I play ❤️ brings me closer to my music, if nothing else

@flisnoo shaboo yeah it’s impossible to be deaf.... definitely 😐

@flisnoo shaboo You can still feel vibrations even if you can’t actually hear what pitch/sound they’re associated to. And even then, you do know not everyone who’s deaf is like, completely 100% unable to hear, right? Sure, there are those that can’t hear at all, but there’s also several who can hear some sounds or certain pitches (which I’d imagine could be quite annoying actually, imagine if the only sound you could hear would be the droning of your microwave or something) or can hear better with the help of hearing aids. Just like a lot of things in the world, there’s different kinds - different levels in a sense - of deafness. - I will say though, I’m a hearing person, and not Deaf myself. Highly recommended looking up more about Deafness and such if you genuinely didn’t know or want to learn more.

@@funnyfox204 exactly, I was born deaf but didn't lose all of my hearing, atm I lost 85% in one ear and 90% in the other, it gentic for me because my momnis also deaf, she is fully 100% deaf in one ear and about 96% deaf in the other. I have to have my music up to 13/15 (15 the max volume) to feel the music vibration and my brain turns it to sounds. Thats the best I can explain how I can "hear" the music

@@shadowwolf6493 Have you tried Bone-conduction headphones?

Get back to it Hannah!

Your story is just as inspiring. I can only imagine how you dream. Please share more. Warm regards for all your talents.

It's talent I've only dreamt of. I hope this reawakens your love/passion to play again if only for your enjoyment. Music connects us all and these masterpieces stand the test of time. Love and respect to all musicians

I know how it feels

I'm so curious as to why you walked away from your music. What are you doing now?

I yelled and threw my fist in the air and jumped to my feet clapping. Alone in my room. Ditto, brother.

This was a benefit concert for paraplegics. So a standing ovation would not have been possible.

Sheeple wearing mask. It takes away their humanist. I couldn't sit and watch this but for a minute or less.

I jumped to my feet, yelling bravo, bravo. About scared my cat to death. 😂

Dude, it's 2022. You know how many times people have seen and heard this song already? It has been mixed with every single genre there is. As talented as he is (and let me tell you, he really is talented), this is nothing surprising, exiting, or innovative any more.

This is no longer Moonlight Sonata - something altogether new using parts of a sonnet. I don't remember enough of theory to know if the overall new piece follows same 'rules' as sonata, my guess is no. Not that it has to. But what iff

Evolve? This is a dumbed-down mess. In any case, have you never heard about honouring the composer?

Unpopular opinion but, to me, the dubstep backing part did not bring anything remarkable to the experience. In fact, it just seemed gratuitous, there to present either "shock value" or "uniqueness", but it was simply uncanny in an unconfortable way, like I had a different video that randomly decided to start playing in another tab.

Music is a live if not it will be just another dead classic like Latin. So keep it alive by making it your own but always been respectful like always 👍🏾

This is extremely complex, unique and creative. No one else has done this because they simply aren't able to. Its amazing to have even composed it let alone play it flawlessly. It's refreshing to see someone so accomplished experimenting. It's very rare as most pianists stay in a philharmonic playing traditional classical. I've listened 3 times and can't find a mistake. This is not dumbed down and if Beethoven heard this I think he'd be impressed.

Jazz ,1908 Classical, 1750 totally different ends and of the music spectrum ! Being musically talented myself I would find it very hard to take a good jazz song and make it a classical piece

@@FreyaWarr I see what you're saying, and yes, I have numerous "things" that I place extremely high value on, I just don't describe that as "sacred" because that word implies religion, and your choice to combine it with "sacrilegious" further pushes toward religious implications.

@@devxro so true, Beethoven's fondness for dubstep was well known.

It's honestly magnificent what you can do when combining traditional piano music and techno beats in order to make it go beyond the limits to what you originally can do with classical music, my all time best examples being a game back in 2012 by the name of DEEMO where they used both of the things I mentioned to create a expansive piano-driven game mixed with modern day techno and music to get you in the vibes. They did make a sequel-like game back in 2020, but it's more of post modern-day techno than the original did
