Ludwig van Beethoven
Beethoven's "Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor," Op. 27, No. 2, also known as the "Moonlight Sonata," was composed in 1801 and dedicated to his 16 year-old student and lover, Giulietta Guicciardi. The sonata is celebrated for its pianistic qualities, especially its use of the slow and expressive first movement, marked by gentle and flowing arpeggios. The "Moonlight Sonata" is renowned for its harmonic innovations and emotional depth, making it a masterpiece of the early 19th-century piano repertoire.
