Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven

Today i listened to Moonlight sonata composed by Beethoven. I happened to listen to it through a suggestion by a friend. As i was listening to it, i developed a feeling it was more of a ‘misery-in-life’ themed music rather than romantic which can be misunderstood by its title. Also, one of the things that suprised me, as i read more about it, was that Beethoven was deaf when he composed it,infact he was for more of his work. It took me by surprise and i started to wonder how it can even be possible,but as i read more about it,i came to know it,Beethoven was pretty sure of the patterns before he composes his music.He also used dissonance(it can mean something different to you, art is subjective) as a powerful tool in this piano sonata. He also didn’t follow the basic premise of a sonata and change the speed of three movements it consists of. I have listened to it more than any other musical art piece thats for sure and i still cannot comprehend its beauty as a music appreciator(not a nerd).

What’s your favorite song/body of work by Stevie Wonder?

Song: As

Body of work: Songs in the Key of Life

@nasfera2 what’s yours?

My all time favorite song of his is Superstition. Loved it ever since I first heard it as a kid. 

My fave body of work by him is Songs in the Key of Life. Stevie blessed the world with more brilliant songs on that one record than most artists create during their whole careers.

Song: Maaaan ummmm “Ngiculela Es Un Historia I Am Singing”, “Bird of Beauty”, “As”  and “Summer Soft” . I just can’t pick ONE Stevie song.

Favorite Stevie Album: Hotter Than July

@brandonousley

Favorite Stevie Wonder Song: “You’ve Got It Bad Girl” (Honestly, it’s beyond criminal to choose only one as there are far too many. The list is very lengthy. This particular song has the utmost sentimental value for me when it comes to my appreciation for the full breadth of Stevie Wonder’s artistry.)

Favorite Stevie Wonder Album: Talking Book (I will always contend this to be the greatest album ever made.)
