Murdering Beethoven

I'm not one to knock musical ability, I actively encourage people to start playing an instrument, writting silly little tunes, paint a picture or do something else thats creative. Everyone is an artist and your creative view of life is unique to you, but when bullshit enters the scene I usually get rilled up.

At first i wasn't going to post because I thought it was just her party piece and because of my own musical limitations I'm in no position to be a musical snob but after reading a bit more about Myleene Klass I found out she was given a contract by EMI Classics! No wonder EMI are going out of business.

It's an appalling version of the Moonlight. The tempo changes and expression are abrupt and random. If she was just after finishing a handful of lessons I could understand but to have a recording deal? Arrrggghhh.... The only redeeming quality is the way she sticks her arse out while playing, but that posture just seems to sum up all thats wrong with this.



Atsuko Seta plays the Presto Agitato movement from the same sonata. She doesnt stick her ass out like a ghetto superstar, she just plays the piano, well!
