I've finally finished inputting No. 17, with my musical menter's comment, "Let's listen to it again in a while". The composition of the three movements is well calculated, and even so, each of them is full of unique beauty. It seems overflowing with a strong will to be trying very hard to tell us where he is going to, and so those are truly wonderful music. Therefor I was feelin a little tired.
This great piano sonata is subtitled "Tempest, which makes me wonder why it is called "Storm". I am sure he did not give it this title, but there are various plausible explanations. In many cases, it is compared to Shakespeare's last play, "The Tempest," but I feel a sense of doubt. I think it is better to think of it as a code word.
