Moonlight Sonata – Piano Tiles

Ludwig van Beethoven · 1801 · Medium

Beethoven's Sonata No. 14 in C sharp minor, Op. 27 No. 2, completed in 1801 and dedicated to his pupil Countess Giulietta Guicciardi. The nickname came later, from the critic Ludwig Rellstab, who likened the first movement to moonlight on Lake Lucerne; Beethoven asked for the whole piece to be played without dampers, so the triplet arpeggios ring on under the melody. This is the first movement, Adagio sostenuto.

How Piano Tiles works

Four lanes of tiles fall toward a glowing hit line. Tap a lane — or press D, F, J or K — just as its tile crosses the line, and that note sounds on the sampled grand piano. Every tile is a real note from the song, so a clean run plays the melody while the accompaniment runs underneath. Each song is graded 1–3 stars at 70 %, 85 % and 95 % accuracy; the Practice chip plays any tune at 70 % speed with note names on.
