It was not published during his lifetime, only being discovered (by Ludwig Nohl) forty years after his death, and may be termed either a <em>Bagatelle<\/em> or an <em>Albumblatt<\/em>. The unaccompanied oscillation between the dominant E and its chromatic lower neighbor D-sharp that begins the melody has become one of the most recognizable openings in classical music. The identity of &#8220;Elise&#8221; is unknown; researchers have suggested Therese Malfatti, Elisabeth R\u00f6ckel or Elise Barensfeld.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/e7F9Wfq_voU\" width=\"728\" height=\"435\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>F\u00fcr Elise: Other Piano Performances<\/h2>\n<h3>Lang Lang<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7337\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7337\" style=\"width: 723px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/for-elise-beethoven-lang-lang\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7337 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/for-elise-beethoven-lang-lang.jpg\" alt=\"The pianist Lang Lang plays Beethoven's famous For Elise (F\u00fcr Elise) composition\" width=\"723\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/for-elise-beethoven-lang-lang.jpg 723w, https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/for-elise-beethoven-lang-lang-300x178.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7337\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ludwig van Beethoven &#8211; For Elise in A Minor &#8211; Lang Lang, Piano<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Ivo Pogorelich<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1095\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1095\" style=\"width: 735px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/beethoven-elise-pogorelich\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1095 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Beethoven-Fu\u0308r-Elise-in-A-minor-Ivo-Pogorelich-Piano.jpg\" alt=\"Ivo Pogorelich plays Beethoven's extremely famous piece &quot;Fur Elise&quot;\" width=\"735\" height=\"551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Beethoven-Fu\u0308r-Elise-in-A-minor-Ivo-Pogorelich-Piano.jpg 735w, https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Beethoven-Fu\u0308r-Elise-in-A-minor-Ivo-Pogorelich-Piano-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1095\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ivo Pogorelich plays Beethoven&#8217;s extremely famous piece &#8220;For Elise&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Other Beethoven&#8217;s Famous Piano Work<\/h2>\n<h3>Moonlight Sonata Adagio<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_905\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-905\" style=\"width: 734px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/beethoven-moonlight-sonata-grimaud\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-905 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Beethoven-Sonata-No-14-Moonlight-He\u0301le\u0300ne-Grimaud.jpg\" alt=\"The french pianist H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Grimaud plays Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata in c-sharp minor first movement\" width=\"734\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Beethoven-Sonata-No-14-Moonlight-He\u0301le\u0300ne-Grimaud.jpg 734w, https:\/\/happynote.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Beethoven-Sonata-No-14-Moonlight-He\u0301le\u0300ne-Grimaud-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 734px) 100vw, 734px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-905\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sonata No. 14 in C-Sharp Minor (Adagio) by H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Grimaud<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Beethoven \u2013 Symphony No. 5 in C Minor \u2013 Line Riders<\/h2>\n<p>More than 100 000 000 (100 Million !!!) views on Youtube for this wonderful animation on Beethoven\u2019s 5th.
