Reveries, Listening Pleasures
I found this music by piano music by Beethoven soothing and calming for quite a dreary twilight winter.
Sometimes feeling alone and lonely heightens fears of inadequacy. We need that sense of belonging: belonging to a group we call friends. Knowing that we belong fosters inner warmth that accompanies well-being... security that somehow melts fears of the unknown.

Note: The Piano Concerto No. 5 in E♭ major, Op. 73,
by Ludwig van Beethoven, popularly known as the Emperor Concerto, was
his last completed piano concerto. It was written between 1809 and 1811
in Vienna, and was dedicated to Archduke Rudolf, Beethoven's patron and
pupil. The video above contains the second movement, "Adagio un poco
mosso" which I listen to in one of my reflective moments... where B major
forms a quiet nocturne for the solo piano, muted strings, and wind
instruments that converse with the solo piano. Beautiful!
