Assignment for tomorrow-- Sunday-- Listen to 6 hours of Beethoven on Youtube!

The punctuated rhythms and runs of the piano sound is a lot livlier and well defined, in my opinion, than even full orchestras, violins or other strings sounds. The fact that we have one sound-- the piano-- in all its variations-- forces the pianist and piano composer to be creative in ways that don't challange an orchestra.
