Its popularity transcends the bounds of style, drawing in even non-classical music fans with its dreamlike first movement, the Adagio. Deeply personal, Beethoven’s Adagio entrances listeners with its complex emotion. The peaceful, rolling movement of the arpeggios contrasts with its haunting melody and somber bass line to portray the thought of someone who can find beauty in the midst of conflict. ------------ Recommended videos: ✔️ Complete list of all our Beethoven arrangements: ✔️ Paganini Caprice No. 24: ✔️ Romanian Folk Dances by Bartok: ✔️ Moonlight Sonata, Third Movement:
