We decided in the end not to use Mozart’s Requiem as we felt that even though there was a lot of meaning behind using the song, it really did not fit with the vibe of our video as music felt too jumpy and not as slow as we wanted it to be. We felt that Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata was more effective as it was slow and dramatic and so fit the mood perfectly.

The meaning behind this particular sonata is quite important too. He dedicated this song to his pupil at the time Countess Giulietta Guicciardi. This shows that his connection towards this pupil was so strong that he dedicated an entire piece to her, wishing to marry her but he couldn’t because of class differences, showing how important connections and relationships are in life and how these connections can be lost over time due to many factors.
