moonlight sonata

sometimes a certain melody just follows you around...

and how appropriate with the "super" moon upon us this weekend.

turned on the radio yesterday and they put on a recording of Andre Watts playing Beethoven's 'Moonlight Sonata.' It is amazing the subtleties of each pianist's voice, making one so different from another.  I particularly like Watts.  And though I am not sure if this youtube recording is the same as what was played on the radio- I figure it is at least a recording of the same person playing the same piece of music- even if it is played differently.  Enjoy listening.

and Happy Solstice!
