Name this song (Beethoven)

[pknz]

Hi does anyone know the name of this piece by Beethoven?

It features in the map Supply Depot 2 in Wolfenstein ET and I think it was in the Pianist.

The only Beethoven piece listed in the Pianist according to IMDB (http://imdb.com/title/tt0253474/soundtrack)is:

"Sonata No. 14 in C# Minor, Op. 27/2, "
Mondscheinsonate"
by Ludwig van Beethoven

:gag: Everybody learns this song... sigh. I'm so sick of it.But its still better then half of the stuff you will hear on the radio.:)

Thanks for your help guys. It does appear to be Beethovens Piano Sonata No. 14 aka Moonlight.

Sorry about bringing it up Devilot, but don't worry I don't intend to learn/play it.

Yup, reminds me of my days taking piano lessons and doing recitals.Mm hmm. And getting hit if you don't play well or if you don't practice. :shudder:

Mm hmm. And getting hit if you don't play well or if you don't practice. :shudder:You got hit, the most I got was a feeling of disappointment and shame.:rolleyes:

[devilot]

i'd have to say this is probably one of the better songs in the category of songs that everyone learns how to play, though. the third movement is great too, if you're up for a challenge.

its "Moonlight Sonnata" not sure if the spellings right tho

i'd have to say this is probably one of the better songs in the category of songs that everyone learns how to play, though. the third movement is great too, if you're up for a challenge.But "Chopsticks" is easier to learn, just as recognizable, and a lot more fun!

The token overused piano lesson song is Fur Elise.
