#beethoven piano sonata 8

[alientitty]

One of my favorite animation sequences ever, from A Boy Named Charlie Brown (1969). He's playing the 2nd movement (Adagio cantabile) of Beethoven's "Pathétique" Sonata (No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13)

Round 1 of 8, Group 6 of 8

propaganda and summaries are under the cut (May include spoilers)

Better Call Saul: 6.07 Plan and Execution

Jimmy and Kim deal with a last-minute snag in their plan; Lalo is forced to make an unexpected move.

Detective Conan: 1.11 Moonlight Sonata Murder Case

cw for suicide and transphobia (murderer poses as a woman but as soon as this is revealed they solely get adressed by their birth name and people use male pronuns for them, then they commit suicide)

Richard is called to Moonlight Island by a mysterious client to investigate a series of murders related to the death of a famous piano player years earlier.

For those that don't know, Detective Conan is a manga turned anime, in which a brilliant but also quite self-absorbed 17-year old detective Shinichi Kudo gets turned into a kid by a failed poison, having him go by Conan Edogawa now. It definitely pegs him down a notch, and Moonlight Sonata is one of the first cases where his character development kicks off. It just subtly and beautifully changed the tone of this show. In almost all previous cases, Conan would unravel how the murderer did it, ending with them confessing and being taken in by police. In this case however, the murderer not only has made a special connection with him during their stay on the island, they also chose to die the same way their family did. And I’m no matter what Conan tried, he couldn't safe them. It's one of the first cornerstones of the difference between pre-poison and post-poison Shinichi. Also, after watching it once, you will always think of this specific episode when hearing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonana".

Morning Melodies

Eddie Munson header edit created by and used with permission from the incomparable @somnambulic-thing

For the @stcreators Event 04: Music

Rockstar!Eddie Munson x Fem!Reader (description vague apart from AFAB) Summary: Eddie and Reader engage in some romantic morning sex. Warnings/Tropes: Established relationship, pure romantic smut (fingering, oral, fem receiving, p in v sex) Note: I love guys who can play the piano. I think it's sexy as hell. Guitars are great, don't get me wrong, but imagine if Eddie could play the piano too? This is purely self-indulgent. Word Count: 1300

You opened your eyes and stretched languidly as wakefulness overtook you. The morning sun streamed in through the windows, and a faint summer breeze stirred the white sheer curtains.  You glanced at the bedside clock; it was almost 8:30 am.  Eddie was gone; he must have let you sleep in.  You pouted slightly; you so enjoyed being able to wake up beside him, and the mornings when you could lounge in bed together were too few.  Eddie had been on tour the last several months, and you only were able to see him a few times. You always missed him terribly when he was away.

As you sat up, the faint sound of piano music drifted to your ears.  It was Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata, an achingly beautiful, soft melody. You closed your eyes and smiled; soaking it in.  You loved to hear him play.  

You slid out of bed naked and put on a discarded white button up shirt that Eddie had worn the night before. You took a moment to breathe his scent; after all this time, he still intoxicated you.

You padded downstairs and around the corner to the sitting room where Eddie played. You leaned against the door frame for a moment before entering; watching him.  He was dressed only in red plaid boxers with his long hair cascading around his shoulders. His dark curls glinted with hints of chestnut in the morning sun, and he looked as if he strolled out of a Botticelli painting. A beautiful, dark angel.

You moved quietly toward him, not wanting to interrupt the beautiful music he was making and ruin the moment.  Once you reached him, however, you couldn’t help but touch him; if only to remind yourself that he was real.  You stepped behind him and snaked your arm over his left shoulder, around to his chest.  You bent to press a kiss on the spot where his neck met his left shoulder; one of your favorite places in the world.

He didn't move or stop playing, but you felt him smile.  "Good morning," he said.  "I hope I didn’t wake you."

"You know I love to hear you play," you breathed into his neck, and kissed it again. "Good morning."

He chuckled.  "Damn, you're learning all of my tricks."

You came around to face him, leaning on the edge of the piano, but careful not to get in his way.  "Don’t change your ways on my account."

He smiled at you beatifically. When the sun caught his eyes just right, you thought they looked like honey; a glimpse into the sweetness within that he reserved only for you.

You stuck out your lower lip in a mock pout. "I was sad not to see you in bed with me when I woke up.  You know how I like to wake up slowly with you, and, um…acclimate each other to the new day."  You sighed, and smiled.  "This does make up for it though."

You walked around to the back of the piano, and climbed on top of it. He watched you with a cocked eyebrow but said nothing.  You walked slowly down the length of the instrument, almost to the flow of the music, and stopped at the edge, looking down on him.  Carefully, you lowered yourself down to a sitting position; legs crossed.  His expression took on an intensity that made goosebumps prickle along your skin.

Carefully, so as not to interrupt him, you placed each foot on one of his shoulders. He turned his head and kissed your left ankle, then gave the skin of your calf a little nibble.  You gasped, your breathing picking up pace.  You slowly unbuttoned the shirt, his shirt, fully exposing yourself.  You loved hearing him play, but you needed him to touch you.  You bit your lip in anticipation.

You tilted your pelvis so as to make yourself more accessible, and without missing a note, he rose up from the bench and leaned forward.  You felt his warm, silken tongue draw up the length of your slit, and you moaned.  He licked your entrance for a moment, and then his mouth closed to suckle on your clit.  Your legs shuddered with the pleasure of it, and you fought to remain upright.  He alternated between sucking and licking, sending you into paroxysms of ecstasy.  You felt your climax building, but suddenly his mouth was gone, leaving your heat aching with the need for release.

He stopped playing and stood up, eyes blazing.  He stared at you hungrily as you lifted one bare foot and touched his bulge with your toes.  You drew your foot slowly up his length, and his head fell back as he groaned. He reached down and pulled the band of his boxers down just enough to release his cock. You smiled at the perfect sight of him; his tatted and toned torso visible through his unbuttoned shirt, his impressive length standing at full attention.  

He grabbed your hips and pulled you to the very edge of the piano, and gently entwined the fingers of one hand into your hair.  He slid two long, skilled fingers into your heat, pushing them in as far as they would go.  He probed and hooked his fingers inside of you, hitting all the right places, and you gasped and moaned, hips squirming.  He could obviously tell by your wetness that you needed no further preparation, and after a few moments, he withdrew his digits.  He grasped his cock, and pushed the tip into your entrance. “Yes,” you moaned breathlessly.  "Please Eddie.“

He thrust his hips forward, sinking the full length of him into your depths in one, deliberate movement.  He kept one hand in your hair, holding you still as he thrust into you languidly at first, gradually picking up speed.  You attempted to moan his name, but all that came out was an ecstatic cry.  Your skin slapped audibly as he pounded into you; one foot slipped off his hips and smashed the piano keys, creating a cacophony that made Eddie chuckle despite his efforts. This carried on for several minutes; your mingled breathing punctuated with the occasional sour note caused by your foot hitting the keys as Eddie fucked you.  It wasn’t long before a powerful orgasm washed over you; your walls tightening on his cock. The force of the climax was unrelenting, and your hips bucked as the waves of ecstasy washed over you again and again.  You cried out; it was as if your very skin was on fire, and your mound tingled with a new sensitivity.  

"God...fuck..." he panted, and his teeth clamped down onto your left ear as he climaxed, grinding his pelvis into yours as he pumped his release into you.

He kissed you deeply before gently untwining his fingers from your hair, and braced himself with his hands on the piano, catching his breath.  You stroked the curls that framed his face.  "I've missed you Eddie,“ you said softly.

"I missed you too babe.  Enormously."  He gave you another peck on the lips before withdrawing and pulling up his boxers with a snap.  "You didn’t let me finish the song," he said with a wink.

You laughed and hopped off of the piano. "There will be time for that later.  First, coffee."

"Nope," he grinned at you, shaking his head.  "First shower.  Then coffee."

And so the melody continued, and the mingled sounds of your love and joy was a special kind of music indeed. 🖤

(8/18) prompt: unexpected— 566 words (a soft piano moment) @jegulus-microfic

Distantly, Regulus hears the front door open and close as James gets home from work. He doesn’t move from where he sits on the small bench at the piano, continuing to see the familiar classical melody through to the end. His fingers glide precisely over black and white keys, the melody carrying out the sitting room’s open door.

It’s not a surprise that James follows the music and finds him there. Regulus stays focused, even when he notices his boyfriend in his peripheral vision. He always gets like this when he plays; wrapped up in the flow of crescendos and decrescendos, the careful pacing to be just right.

The song gradually approaches its conclusion, and Regulus feels the gentle press of James’ hand between his shoulder blades. He rubs back and forth; a soothing motion, because he’s got to know that Regulus being at the piano out of the blue like this is a sign. An unspoken secret shared by his seeking comfort in the old instrument. 

Playing the piano again became a stress relief mechanism for Regulus, James knows this. It’s easier to quiet his racing thoughts when he’s got his fingers dancing over the keys. Sometimes he tries to challenge himself with new sheet music, but most often it’s the safety net of his favorite pieces that he gravitates toward.

Tonight it’s Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata, and while that in itself says nothing in particular, it does still set a certain mood. James stands close behind him on the bench, present and patient with his hand still moving, as he finishes. As soon as he lifts his fingers from the final keys and leaves them resting, Regulus lets out a sigh.

“This is unexpected.” James speaks softly then presses a kiss into the top of Regulus’ hair. “You haven’t played in a little while. Everything alright, love?”

“Just feeling a bit loud today.” Regulus shrugs; he knows James will understand what he’s referring to. After a moment, he leans back into him. “Thought I could use the pleasant distraction, I suppose.”

“Pleasant distraction?” James’ low tone turns playful. He smooths his hands along Regulus’ shoulders then slides one beneath the collar of his shirt, down his chest. “I can do pleasant distraction.”

“Oh, can you?” Regulus hums out a chuckle, tilting his head back far enough to look up at him. “No special requests first?”

Keeping one hand splayed over Regulus’ steadily quickening heart in his shirt, James lifts his other hand from his shoulder. He brushes the back of his fingers along the line of Regulus’ jaw before grasping at his chin, tilting his head even further backward. The angle has Regulus finally slipping his hands off the piano, one moving to sink into the back of James’ hair when he leans over him as needed.

“A kiss would be nice.” An exhaled sigh, hot in the couple inches that remain between their faces.

Regulus’ lips twitch upward faintly. “Mm, does sound lovely.”

He’s been home all evening, but when James kisses him slow and sweet, something warm and content settles into Regulus’ bones. Something that feels like he’s just walked into their place for the first time all over again. He feels quieter already, save for the perfect harmony of his hurried heart and the loop of James James James in his head.

It’s yet another song Regulus will always find his comfort in.

NCT's 4th album title track 'Golden Age' is a reinterpretation of Beethoven : Piano Sonata No. 8 In C Minor, Op. 13 'Pathetique' - II. Adagio Cantabile, the composition that utilizes a variety of intense trap beats and elegant piano melodies shows the magnificence of the song.

Moreover, hopeful lyrics of welcoming NCT's brilliant golden age and picture a bright future together and the member's rich harmony blends in together, and is even more emotional and touching as it is a song where all 20 members participate.

Rating random composers as I'm listening to their music just because I don't feel like sleeping.

Shostakovich: 10/10 he got the Slavic sadness, weather and politics in music. Love that.

Beethoven: 7/10. Pretty dramatic, and that's cool, but like there is room to stop being angry about gradually losing hearing as a composer.

Howard Shore: 9/10 pretty cool

Vivaldi: 9/10. Chill but with a fair flare for Big Dramatic Emotions. Love that

Wagner: 8/10. I think this German guy did his best and it was pretty great.

Tchaikovsky: 10/10. What a surprise! That's my pathetic Russian gay boy!! He got the feelings in his music and I feel them very much.

Dvorak: 7/10. There is nothing wrong with his music, I just keep forgetting it exists? It's actually great.

[doyoueverstopandthink]

umbrella academy characters as music on my playlist of my favorite classical pieces

luther: Symphony No. 6 in F Major, Op. 68 “Pastoral”: II. Szene am Bach: (Andante molto mosso) - Ludwig Van Beethoven (performed by Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique with John Eliot Gardiner as the conductor) 

fits season three luther the best

this is the lightest movement of the symphony, which i think fits in with him falling in love with sloane and working on growing through his childhood trauma

the last phrase of the piece is viewed as two birds taking flight. that’s literally him and sloane. 

diego: Träumerei (Kinderderszenen, Op. 15) - Gemafrei - Robert Schumann (performed by Ronny Matthes)

also fits season three diego best

this is from a collection of schumann writing pieces that highlight his life (this one is from his dreaming during childhood)

he now has a child (in stan and in his and lila’s biological child) and is essentially dreaming of all the ways he’s going to do better at raising his kid than his dad did for him

allison: Piano Sonata No. 3 in A Minor, Op. 28 - Sergei Prokofiev (performed by Matti Raekallio)

this is a piano sonata that doesn’t have actual movements separating it into chunks, just a vibe difference throughout different parts of it

the most technically demanding of prokofiev piano sonatas and he said it was “pretty, interesting, and practical” (which fits allison pretty well) 

klaus: Otello, Act 4: “Ave Maria” (Desdemona) - Guiseppe Verdi (performed by Cristina Gallardo-Domas, Maurizio Barbacini, and Das Münchner Rundfunkorchester)

desdemona’s last moments on stage before getting murdered by her husband, and she’s essentially saying “i love this man with my whole heart and i need to prove that to him before something drastic happens” 

klaus is very much so the same due to his whole “i love dave with my whole heart and i need to prove that to him before he dies in a war that uselessly killed a shit ton of people” 

they’re also both characters that are unapologetically in love

five: String Quartet No. 8 in C Minor, Op. 110: 1. Largo - Dmitri Shostakovich (performed by the Borodin Quartet)

if the second movement is five in seasons one and two, the first movement is five in season three

he’s pissed off with the world around him, yet he’s stuck with this bone deep tiredness that he can’t get rid of

he just wants all the difficulties in his life to fade away so he can go back to living as close to a normal life as he can

ben: Act 3: LII. Juliet’s Death - Sergei Prokofiev (performed by the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra with Vasily Petrenko as the conductor)

ben is dead in season one and two, but the audience knows that he’s still capable of interacting with others due to klaus’s powers, and the audience knows juliet isn’t actually dead, but romeo thinks she is

this movement is one of the most heart-wrenching in all of classical music 

the movement that follows is juliet’s actual death, ending on an even sadder note that this movement began with (similar to ben fucking dying again)

viktor: Symphony No. 4 in F Minor, Op. 36: I. Andante sostenuto - Moderato con anima - Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (performed by San Francisco Orchestra with Michael Tilson Thomas as the conductor)

it’s believed that tchaikovsky composed this when he was pissed off at the world for his inability to be openly queer and he just ended up being tired of everything

follows viktor’s storyline of coming into your true identity and trying to find a sense of confidence with it

lila: Piano Trio in G Major, L. 5: III. Andante espressivo - Claude Debussy (performed by Bertrand Chamayou)

very little is known about the history of the piece (which fits lila)

there’s a lot of emotion present with a lot of vibrato present in the stringed instruments, giving an additional sense of longing

the climax of the piece is very accented, giving it a sense of almost sadness and keeping that longing present

#you know i was tempted to do diego and lila's theme for either of them #or ben's death theme for ben #or goodbye delores for five because those are all in this playlist sooooo #luther hargreeves #diego hargreeves #allison hargreeves #klaus hargreeves #five hargreeves #ben hargreeves #viktor hargreeves #lila pitts #the umbrella academy #umbrella academy #tua #beethoven #schumann #prokofiev #verdi #shostakovich #tchaikovsky #debussy #classical music

[potatoes-tomatoes]

apologies if this is out of left field at all but do you have any thoughts or headcanons about lucy and schroeder? 😭 they’ve been on my mind sm lately

omg I’m so sorry nonny ;A; this is so late

Charlie Brown listens to Schroeder’s complaints about Lucy barging in, and asks why he doesn’t lock the front door. It’s the surest way to keep her out. Schroder half-heartedly shrugs, admitting it’s crossed his mind before, and says nothing else. That’s all the answer Charlie Brown needs, really.

Lucy doesn’t always lean against the piano– whenever Schroeder’s practicing instead of performing, (never. NEVER. interrupt a musician while they’re practicing) Lucy takes the opportunity to practice playing house, and she’s damn good at it. She can never seem to make a good cup of coffee though…

Schroeder never shuts down Lucy’s nuptial hypotheticals. Lucy’s got an active imagination, and. well, they're kids, so she comes up with funny problems. and Schroeder likes a good brain puzzle, so he’ll slow down on his playing to really think on a good solution.

Lucy’s not a big fan of Beethoven, or any classical music really, but she’s very fond of Sonata no. 8 in C minor, Op. 13 “Pathetique”: II. She walks in some days asking for Schroeoder to “play that lovely Pathetic song”

Lucy finds out that Beethoven was hopelessly in love, and rubs it in Schorder’s face that if he truly wants to follow in the footsteps of his idol, he needs to find a gal to pine after.

Schroeder’s the Piano Guy at gatherings and parties, unfortunately. He likes sneaking in sonatas every other pop song or so, and everyone around him groans. Then, quickly shut up. Because Lucy is death glaring every person in the room. No one dares telling Schroeder to skip his song. If Schroeder wants to play his boring ass sonatas he will play them, thus sayeth the fussbudget.

Schroeder will never. ever. EVER. admit it but… he secretly likes being doted on. Lucy gives him undivided attention and listens to his lengthy talks about music (though she’s always making faces at whatever he’s saying) and Schroeder’s never had a captive audience quite like her before. She’s an audience that responds (see: nags), and the reciprocity inspires his playing.

Lucy believes in Schroeder more than anything. She assuages Schroeder’s anxiety when he has to face a new piece, or worse, when he’s been stuck on a section of a piece for a longer period than he’d like. All she has to do is smile as he plays. He knows that face is genuine, and suddenly he finds he’s unclenched his jaw long ago. Hey, that section suddenly isn’t so hard….

Because of Schroder’s position in the sidelines, he’s able to see when Lucy’s at the cusp of spiraling, doing that Thing where she spreads herself thin for everyone and gets angry, insisting things be done her way. He knows when to step in and remind her that in order to take care of others, she has to take care of herself.

umm as for my thoughts, the only cohesive one I have rn is that I think they were absolutely adorable in "It's the Small Things, Charlie Brown"!! All Lucy has to do is call for Schroeder and he comes a-runnin, ready to play. I have no idea I needed that for their dynamic. Oh! and Schroeder being the one to point out what Lucy's afraid of in "Lucy's School"? His straight to the point delivery, acting as the final nail in the coffin? It's rly important that it was HIM who delivered that line to me for obvi reasons. Just. Yes. yesssss I'm so happy how Wildbrain is handling these two, so delicious.

#peanuts #cel speaks #nony you awakened a dormant beast #now i'm compelled to watch peanuts stuff again and just fall back into them #ah... the solitude of being gone for these two :') #more thoughts: Linus practically falls to his feet in gratitude when Schroeder tells Lucy to Chill Out #like. no one else is willing to face her wrath except for Schroeder bc he's just. no-nonsense like that #i mean he is scared of her its fuckin Lucy Van Pelt but he's not too scared where he can't tell it like it is #so Linus is quietly hoping for Schroeder to be his brother in law #yes he wants his sister to be happy yada yada but... that means HE wont have to deal with Lucy when she gets Lucy. he's rooting for em 100% #lolol not me adding 50s-ism to my hc's ghjfkd #Lucy's forever mad that she can never make a good coffee but cooks fine otherwise. Schroeder literally doesnt care. because he prefers tea. #lucy and schroeder

Adventure Time: 6.20 Jake the Brick

Jake is conducting an experiment of being a brick in a brick-shack.

This episode won an Emmy, that's how good it is. It's a very simple episode, yet the message it contains is powerful. Even if you never watched the show, you can follow it with no problem. It's beautiful and moving.

Detective Conan (eng title: Case Closed): 1.11 Moonlight Sonata Murder Case

cw for suicide and transphobia (murderer is a man who is pretending to be a woman)

Richard is called to Moonlight Island by a mysterious client to investigate a series of murders related to the death of a famous piano player years earlier.

For those that don't know, Detective Conan is a manga turned anime, in which a brilliant but also quite self-absorbed 17-year old detective Shinichi Kudo gets turned into a kid by a failed poison, having him go by Conan Edogawa now. It definitely pegs him down a notch, and Moonlight Sonata is one of the first cases where his character development kicks off. It just subtly and beautifully changed the tone of this show. In almost all previous cases, Conan would unravel how the murderer did it, ending with them confessing and being taken in by police. In this case however, the murderer not only has made a special connection with him during their stay on the island, they also chose to die the same way their family did. And no matter what Conan tried, he couldn't safe them. It's one of the first cornerstones of the difference between pre-poison and post-poison Shinichi. Also, after watching it once, you will always think of this specific episode when hearing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonana".
