Spookily, I have trouble with Beethoven's Appassionata

Posted by andy evans on August 11, 2015 at 02:06:42:
I like a lot of Beethoven sonatas, and curiously the most played give me the most trouble. The first movement of the Moonlight is frankly boring, to me at least.
The Appassionata seems to me to be "full of sound and fury, signifying nothing....". I think the actual thematic material of the first movement is relatively weak and it's just an anger fest - a genius flailing around in some kind of rant against the world. It's disturbing....
As they say in school, "Discuss........."
