Bullshit fake title to attract views. BOTH singers turned away from the camera as part of their mechanical dance moves to give the piano solo the spotlight. Title insiuates she was unhappy with the camera position or audience, but it ain'ty so.

Second "movement": 68 scherzo in military style (begins at "Alla marcia," words "Froh, wie seine Sonnen fliegen"), in the "Turkish style"

For = 84 is ludicrously slow for an 'Allegro assai vivace'. But once again the fault almost certainly lies with Beethoven's nephew Karl. Karl's mistake here, however, is slightly different from his earlier one. For in this case what Beethoven wrote in the conversation book was simply "84 6/8." He did not draw a note of any kind. Karl translated this admittedly rather cryptic notation into = 84. But what Beethoven probably meant was that a whole bar of 6/8 would register 84 times per minute. Thus the correct translation of what he wrote in the conversation book would not be = 84 but rather = 84, a metronome marking that yields an exhilaratingly fast but perfectly playable tempo that is a true 'Allegro assai vivace'.

Moreover, the ecstatically heroic text set by the music of this section is well fitted to a very fast tempo: 'Joyously as his suns fly across heaven's magnificent expanse, brothers, run your race, joyously as a hero [runs] to victory.' At the ultra-slow tempo = 84, these words seem comical, even grotesque. Also, it is clearly impossible to maintain the slow tempo throughout the fugato section without having the music plod ridiculously. Almost all conductors, therefore, speed up a good deal. If, however, the whole passage is taken at =84, there is no need to increase the tempo (and, indeed, no possibility of doing so) [32].
