I have always loved this Concerto. It is an amazing composition and so well done here. I agree with Goethe who said of Beethoven: "To think of teaching him would be an insolence even in one with greater insight than mine, since he has the guiding light of his genius, which frequently illumines his mind like a stroke of lightning while we sit in darkness and scarcely suspect the direction from which daylight will break upon us."
