A sacrilege or a stroke of genius? The composer and music director Gottlob Benedict Bierey (1772–1840) orchestrated the first movement of the famous "Moonlight Sonata" by Beethoven (transposed to C minor) and added a four-part choral movement to it, which he underlaid with the text of the Kyrie from the Latin mass. The result is as astounding as it is harmonious! For the present edition for choir and piano – in which Beethoven’s sonata movement functions, so to speak, as a piano score – the C-sharp minor key familiar to pianists has been retained.
