Presto agitato" is the final movement of Ludwig van Beethoven's famous Sonata No. 14, more widely known as the "Moonlight Sonata." This section is characterized by its furious energy and intense drama. Originally written for piano, an arrangement for harpsichord and orchestra gives the piece a new dimension—bringing a sharper, more baroque quality while preserving its expressiveness.
Beethoven composed this sonata in 1801, and it remains one of his most renowned works. The final "Presto agitato" movement contrasts sharply with the slow, contemplative first movement, creating a whirlwind of emotions and virtuosity. In a harpsichord and orchestra arrangement, you can expect a fascinating mix of textures, where the harpsichord adds crispness and precision while the orchestra amplifies the dramatic tension
