Lyrics
Chorus:
I’m feeling like an alien baby
Riding around the world
I’m feeling like a stranger lately
Round and around we go
Verse 1:
Where did I come from?
Where do I go?
I’m so far away from home
What am I going for?
How can I know
What I’m fighting for?
Chorus:
I’m feeling like an alien baby
Riding around the world
I’m feeling like a stranger lately
Round and around we go
Verse 2:
So where can I go?
A million miles from home
What am I going for?
How can I know
What I’m fighting for?

The first movement, in C♯ minor, is written in an approximate truncated sonata form. The movement opens with an octave in the left hand and a triplet figuration in the right. A melody that Hector Berlioz called a «lamentation», mostly by the right hand, is played against an accompanying ostinato triplet rhythm, simultaneously played by the right hand. The movement is played pianissimo or «very quietly», and the loudest it gets is mezzo forte or «moderately loud».
The adagio sostenuto has made a powerful impression on many listeners; for instance, Berlioz said of it that it «is one of those poems that human language does not know how to qualify. The work was very popular in Beethovens day, to the point of exasperating the composer himself, who remarked to Carl Czerny, „Surely Ive written better things.
Allegretto
The second movement is a relatively conventional scherzo and trio, a moment of relative calm written in D-flat major, the enharmonic equivalent of C♯ major, the more easily-notated parallel major of C♯ minor. Franz Liszt described the second movement as “a flower between two chasms.»[citation needed] The slight majority of the movement is in piano, but a handful of sforzandos and forte-pianos helps to maintain the movements cheerful disposition.
Presto agitato
The stormy final movement (C♯ minor), in sonata form, is the weightiest of the three, reflecting an experiment of Beethovens (also carried out in the companion sonata, Opus 27, No. 1 and later on in Opus 101) placement of the most important movement of the sonata last. The writing has many fast arpeggios and strongly accented notes, and an effective performance demands lively and skillful playing.
It is thought that the C-sharp minor sonata, particularly the third movement, was the inspiration for Frédéric Chopins Fantaisie-Impromptu, which manifests the key relationships of the sonatas three movements.
Of the final movement, Charles Rosen has written «it is the most unbridled in its representation of emotion. Even today, two hundred years later, its ferocity is astonishing.
Beethovens heavy use of sforzando notes, together with just a few strategically located fortissimo passages, creates the sense of a very powerful sound in spite of the predominance of piano markings throughout. Within this turbulent sonata-allegro, there are two main themes, with a variety of variation techniques utilized.
Beethovens pedal mark

At the opening of the work, Beethoven included a written direction that the sustain pedal should be depressed for the entire duration of the first movement. The Italian reads: „Si deve suonare tutto questo pezzo delicatissimamente e senza sordino“. (»One must play this whole piece [meaning «movement»] very delicately and without dampers.") The modern piano has a much longer sustain time than the instruments of Beethovens day, leaving for a rather blurry and dissonant tone.
One option for dealing with this problem is to perform the work on a restored or replicated piano of the kind Beethoven knew. Proponents of historically informed performance using such pianos have found it feasible to perform the work respecting Beethovens original direction.
“China’s premier interpreter of Bach”, is what International Piano Magazine called Yuan Sheng. A pupil of Solomon Mikowsky (Manhattan School of Music) and notably Rosalyn Tureck, Yuan Sheng extensively studied the performance practice of Baroque music. Equally at home at the harpsichord he has an instinctive feeling for the possibilities, sonorities and touch of the instrument at hand, so that “the listener might easily have imagined the composer at the keyboard” (Boston Intelligencer).
The title is misleading: the English Suites are more ‘French’ in character than the French Suites, which are more characteristic of the Italian style. ‘By design the composer is here less learned than in his other suites,’ remarked one early biographer, ‘and has mostly used a pleasing, more predominant melody.’ Just so, and the same is true of the pair of suites BWV 818 and 819 which fall outside the collection but belong with it in terms of style. To all of them Yuan Sheng brings considered tempi and precise articulation in the mould of Tureck. To Bach at his most uncomplicated, Sheng brings the virtues of simplicity and clarity.
Again Yuan Sheng draws the listener into his highly intelligent musical discourse, vibrant and moving, speaking through the medium of a modern Steinway piano.
