This is my 111th video, and I thought it would be nice to post the most famous opus 111, the Sonate no. 31 of Ludwig van Beethoven.First movement only, "Maestoso - Allegro con brio ed appassionato". Played by another rather forgotten great female pianist, Elly Ney (1882-1968).Her absence from YouTube sofar might have something to do with her anti-semitic sentiments and her active membership of the NSDAP (Nazi-Party) during WW II.I include the bio from the Naxos-website:"The strongest early musical influence on Elly Ney came from her grandmother, who loved the music of Beethoven. When the child was five her father retired from the army and took a position on the town council in Bonn, and at the age of ten Ney was taken to play for Dr Franz Wüllner, principal of the Cologne Conservatory. He placed her under the tuition of Isidor Seiss, himself a pupil of Friedrich Wieck, father of Clara Schumann. After nine years of study with Seiss, Ney won the Mendelssohn Prize in Berlin and decided she wanted to study with Theodor Leschetizky in Vienna, her motivation for this move being the fact that Leschetizky had studied with Czerny, who in turn had studied with Beethoven. Ney's final teacher was Emil von Sauer, one of Liszt's greatest pupils.Ney began her successful performing career in 1904, making her Viennese debut a year later. She also took over Seiss's class at the Cologne Conservatory, but after three years abandoned it in favour of performance. Arthur Nikisch and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra were frequent concert partners, and she also performed chamber music with her trio comprising cellist Fritz Reitz and violinist Willem van Hoogstraten whom she married in 1911. In 1921 Ney and her husband travelled to the United States, where, until the outbreak of World War II, Ney enjoyed great success. In 1927 Ney was awarded honorary freedom of the city of Bonn, Beethoven's birthplace, and in the 1930s she formed a new piano trio with cellist Ludwig Hoelscher and violinist Wilhelm Stross, later replaced by Max Strub. During World War II Ney taught at the Mozarteum in Salzburg, but because she stayed within the Third Reich and did not renounce Hitler and his ideals, she came to be seen, like Furtwängler, as a Nazi sympathiser.Ney's mature style was eminently suited to the music of Beethoven. Nobility, grandeur, and her complete immersion in his works resulted in performances of great profundity; but the young Ney had a virtuoso repertoire, and in the 1920s she recorded Liszt, Chopin, Schubert, Debussy, Gottschalk and MacDowell for Brunswick. However, it is her recordings from the 1930s of Brahms's Piano Concerto No. 2 Op. 83, Schumann's Kinderszenen Op. 15, Schubert's 'Wanderer' Fantasy D. 760, Mozart's Piano Concerto K. 450 and most of all the works of Beethoven that are important. Ney's best recording is of Beethoven Piano Sonata Op. 111, recorded in May 1936. In the Arietta Ney plumbs the depths of Beethoven's musical psyche in a performance of utter concentration that is one of the finest readings of this work on disc."Ps I will not upload the Arietta because of the YouTube 10.59 time-limit. I have split long movements before, but in this case, it really would be a crime...

The syndrome was named for a Viennese physician, Hans Asperger. He published a paper describing the pattern of behaviors witnessed of boys who had normal IQs and language development, but who were thought to be autistic in behavior with marked social and communicative deficiencies.

How is it that someone so sickly should become so healthy, vigorous, and successful? Why is it that some children, sickly or not, thrive, while others wither away?

The police have also been busy preparing. Viennese cops have imported a security concept from neighboring Germany which emphasizes dialogue and de-escalation before using force. It was a system that worked well during the World Cup, but police in Vienna are hardly known for their benevolence, especially where foreigners are concerned.
