Pianist Henrik Kilhamn looks at all variations of the simple and chorale-like Arietta theme in the final movement of Beethoven's 32nd piano sonata (and of all his sonatas!). They cover an incredible range of styles, sonorites and energy levels while sharing the harmonic structure of the theme, as well as one fundamental tempo that rules the whole movement. In this music, Beethoven leaves earthly struggles behind and ascends to heaven. Some moments in this movement that are as close as you can get to pure beauty and bliss.
