learning this piece atm. very fun to play. and ofc it's not as technically demanding that's why it's on the grade 8 syllabus. fool. not everyone can play all that stuff straight away.
Just thought I'd mention that Pathetique is one of the easiest Beethoven Sonatas. I also thought I'd mention that hammerklavier is probably the hardest piece Beethoven ever wrote. Plus no point in talking about technical demand, it doesn't say much about what the piece is worth. If that were the case all music not by Liszt and Alkan would be useless.
Well, while that is accurate in perspective (i started with this sonata on the pensum), it is still Beethoven. You must manage a wide variety of sounds and techniques. Doing it properly is really really hard.
Of course , Hammerklavier is harder than Emperor concerto.
i love this song sooooo much i'm learning it now i'm a junior in high school (suitland highschool in forestville maryland)and i can't wait untill i finish it how long did it take u to learn it?
careful on right hand phrasing

a nice piece, but no where near as technically demanding as the pathetique or moonlight or tempest or appasionata or waldestein or hammerklavier

I went for a nice walk today. However it was nowhere near as technically demanding as flying a fighter jet or performing brain surgery.
I enjoyed it though.

@barnsie The first movement is not as technically demanding, but the third movement is the hardest one. Both technically and musically.
But this movement is simple compared to the other two.

Yeah, funny how you only mention the well known sonatas too, look for the hidden gems like this one, some of the mare very technical!!
