i love it not just because the way it sounds, which is great, but also because it reminds me of the tolstoy novella of the same name-- the one in which a wife killer rants about the terrible shortcomings of romantic love by comparing it to the emotional whirlwinds and emptiness of the kreutzer sonata.

i'm down with whirlwinds though. beethoven had more rocknroll than most, ha ha.
