Practice note - Beethoven, op.111, 1st mov.

1. Goal: utmost energy with outburst of unrestrained emotions
2. Issues to overcome: energetic, not mechanical, passages of 16th and the dynamic range exploited
3. Practice tips:
* fingering should be devised for expression, not ease of playing, prioritized
* subject motive clearly stand out with rapid streams of passages in background
4. Recommended recordings: Arrau, Brendel, Yukiko Tanaka, Kempf
