About "Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 3 in C Major, Op. 2 No. 3: II. Adagio" by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli

The Adagio of Beethoven's Op. 2 No. 3 is a still point in a turning world. Michelangeli coaxes a tone of glassy purity, the music suspended between contemplation and sorrow, each chord a slow, deliberate breath in an empty room.
