Depends on the ad. There was one with a man playing with his baby while his wife looked on adoringly. The first movement of the Moonlight Sonata was playing in the background.<P>The other was at a wedding I think. People were dancing. It was the Pathetique Sonata, 2nd movement (both are piano sonatas).<P>Great stuff!<P>Hope this helps.<P>-Bill

Being 3,000 miles away, naturally, I cannot watch US TV(!), but the 2 movements mentioned, plus Fur Elise, must surely be the 3 most famous piano pieces in all Beethoven.
