What is the rhythm of Moonlight Sonata?
The sonata is played in 4/4 meter and proceeds at a relaxed, almost lethargic tempo, adding to the dreaminess and fantasy it epitomizes. The sonata is divided into three movements, the first of which is the most well-known and celebrated.
What is the tempo of Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement?
The third movement presents numerous technical challenges, not least the speed and dexterity required to play Presto Agitato. The Moonlight Sonata BPM will be around 168 to 208.
What tempo and beat Should you play on a metronome in Moonlight Sonata?
Adagio is usually 60-80 on the metronome. But as Nancy says, listen to many recordings and decide which you prefer. That said, in my opinion, many people play the Moonlight sonata much too fast, and it is kind of easy to fall into playing it at too fast a tempo. I think anywhere from 5:30 to 7:00 minutes is acceptable.
