If you, sir, upon hearing a definitive reading of Beethoven's 5th
Symphony, do not break down into loud, uncontrollable sobs at the
magnificence of his genius, then perhaps you may be ready to do the
same for the sunshine-laden phase of the fourth movement of Brahm's
1st Symphony, but, OK, lacking that, you are apparently ready for the
study phase.
But study first how to be over-whelmed. It's essential. Of course, you
can't get "a better understanding of Beethoven's 5th Symphony" by
studying Beethoven's 5th Symphony. Study all you want, but if you
haven't gone through the grateful sobbing phase, it's all academic,
but you'll still probably get a good grade.

If you have something to say, write an equation.
If you have nothing to say, write an essay
