the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

My younger son played this, aged 10 for an exam and now my grandson plays it. So many of Beethoven's pieces sound remarkably simple but are not. What a wonderful mind he must have had. Good luck WBF, practise makes perfect so I want to hear you are doing at least four hours a day  :thumbsup:

Do it now, wbf, while your fingers are young and supple.  And when you are old, and your fingers are bent and stiff, say, "Thanks, Sally, for encouraging me to play the piano while I could" ;)
