Hi, I've just finished the Curtis Institute of Music online course on the Beethoven Piano Sonatas and the lectures of Jonathan Biss. My lifetime love of these works is only further enhanced by this excellent course and it is highly recommended. Biss says something which crystallizes everything I've always believed/felt about Mozart: that successive generations of composers never felt that Mozart was a composer who had to be 'grappled with'. Admired, yes, but Mozart never really stepped outside the classical conventions of his time. So, Beethoven had to be 'grappled with' and his piano sonatas irrevocably changed the musical landscape. That's why my love has always been directed towards Beethoven and why Mozart bores me, essentially. For more details VPN Software Examples
