People always love the music from the prime of their life the best. In 30 years time everyone will be desperately trying to recapture the sound of classic iPhone apps from 2022.
I guess even Beethoven just did it all on a keyboard, wrote it out and made other musicians play it, though.
And interestingly, a surprisingly large proportion of the pianos in those homes were...
