Great video! My favorite Beethoven piece is pathetique sonata! And Pieces like waldstein and appassionata were higher!

[@ryanabshier]

Lol, I have bigger hands than it looks like on camera 🤣

[@katttttt]

Also, you couldn't hear anything and played this one in the beginning by ear??? That's why you like Beethoven😂😂

However, unlike Beethoven I gave up and grabbed my headphones, haha. I record audio to a separate channel, so without earphones it makes zero noise. Great for mic quality, really hard on the playing.

@@ryanabshier well he couldn't give up headphones because they didn't exist (hehehe, so plus point😂)

[@ryanabshier]

@@katttttt I'll take any comparison to Beethoven though, he's the best!!!

[@katttttt]

So basically, also the appassionata has like 5 million views (kassia), Für Elise 70 million (Rosseau), so wait what was going on 😂 (but it's not bad lol)

Yeah, it was the average of the top 5 videos of each piece, I mentioned that a few times throughout. So the top Moonlight sonata is insanely higher, but the average brings it down. I figured just taking the top video only would be too random if one video blew up.

@@ryanabshier yeah get it! Algorythem can be strange sometimes

[@ryanabshier]

@@katttttt just need to get the algorithm to point everyone here 😃

Interesting, I wouldn't have thought that Für Elise was behind the Moonlight Sonata

It doesn’t matter how many millions of listens there are on Spotify or elsewhere. Beethoven's most popular piece is Fur Elise. Quite simply because it's the most famous piano piece in the world. I even think it's the most famous piece of classical music. The majority of people don't know a single note of Beethoven, don't even know that Beethoven exists and yet they know and appreciate Fur Elise. Who knows the Moonlight Sonata? Very Very few people.
