A very underrated Beethoven sonata! It's often the lesser-known ones that get stuck in my head, like parts of the first movement did just a few days ago

[@winterheat]

how would you analyze Moonlight Sonata 1st Movement I wonder?

[@doricdream498]

its a great passage, but im not really sure what makes its quality "subtle."

[@FrederickViner]

I'd say it's subtle because its construction is not obvious unless you've kept track of the 1st-subject's constiuent motifs. This recycling of material could very easily go unnoticed, even to those who've played and studied the piece.
