Second movement of Beethoven's seventh - it can reduce me to tears every time.
I am not surprised that this piece of music can reduce you to tears every time... you are not alone there ...
... Beethoven "pours out" his innermost private feelings in this particular piece of music and it is autobiographical...
... this piece also expresses Beethoven's vulnerability... and his oversensitivity...
... and in this particular piece he does not hide his vulnerability behind some bombastic demeanour (as he sometimes does),
... but he expresses his own vulnerability very sensitively in an understandable way...
