The fact that Beethoven basically *is* metal aside, there are many similarities in complexity and melody between so called classics and some metal genres.

Beethoven is the one guy of all the classic composers who I think would hear (ha) this and think, fuck yeah! He was the original metal.

I doubt many people will agree with me. I'm a life-long pianist and studied the classics. "Moonlight Sonata" will always be beautiful in my ears. Few people know LVB was a 32nd or 33rd degree Mason and a worshiper of non-biblical gods. Christianity has sanctified lyrics for "Ode to Joy," from the 9th Symphony, they call "Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee." Actually it is written to a pagan goddess. In my teen years I learned to "get into," get inside a piece of music, whether I was playing or listening. Van Cliburn came to town and played "Moonlight Sonata" when I was 17 and I found myself in something of a trance. From that day, I've understood the power of music. LVB's music will live on as some of the greatest ever; but it does indeed have a dark side to those who have ears to hear. No telling what he'd have done with today's technology.

Alright it has got to be said. I have followed you for over five years on here, watched you conquer some amazing pieces of music, do things with the instrument most never touch much less master. Ive been playing for 20 years, and I cant even compare to half of what you can do. But Eric... you just blew my mind for the first time, truly blew my mind, and I can tell by posture, body language, and expression that this was hard for even you. It pushed your technical limitations. This is one of the most musically complex pieces that exist, considered difficult even for its intended instrument. But you nailed it, hard. How are you not making millions with your craft? Youve got more talent than many of these composers did. Raw talent.

what make eric's vids are being watched is not only because of his great convertion, but also that he is always smiling no matter what.

Beethoven would be proud , fuck yeah he would be proud.

Imagining 331Erock with a powdered wig and 17th to 18th century clothing sitting around a table with Beethoven and several other classical composers having a friendly discussion about music while drinking good German beer while I listen to this

That was the best I've ever heard you play dude!! Absolutely beautiful!!!

That was amazing! I could see the effort it took to pull off was immense and can't imagine the amount of practice you put into it, but this has to be the most impressive metal cover I've seen on your channel. Great work!

I've always been a fan of mixing genres of music. Very well done!

I love when they mix classic musics with rock

holy moly man, song of epic proportions. really really really well done! one of my favorites by far!

I have no words to express my admiration for your works! Please, don't give up it! Keep it on! And please, more, more and more classical covers! God bless you and your divine gift!

I was totally hypnotized by this amazing work. That was so good seriously.

man....Beethoven was metal as fuck.

Don't know how many times I've watched this now but it is one of my favorites that i keep coming back to, this and song of storms :) really nice job Erock.

SOOO good! I played this when I studied piano and it is not an easy piece, I love what you do with it! Keep them coming, I really enjoy your stuff!

EROCK, the best metal guitarist on KZread. But he can't wink. Step it up Erock.

I've been waiting so long for this! YAAAAAAAS! \m/

I subscribed just because of how you smile when you play guitar. You encourage to keep picking up my own. great stuff man keep it up

the foots up..the hairs tied back..the look of concentration an the odd smile..the outcome? bloody amazing :-D you look relieved at the end :-D I felt winded just watching :-))

Metal and Moonlight sonata, two of my favourite things :)

I just listened to Dr. Viossy's version (which has 7 million views) and IMHO just does not compare to the precision and the soul of yours. Well done, Erock.

WELL done, sir. You killed it on this. I really dig your work in general, but the technicality of this piece is a level above. You killed it.

This is definitely by far my favourite of your works, and I like most of your works.
