Prince playing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" Hendrix style -Good or Bad idea?

Maybe I overestimate Prince's abilities as a musical genius but I got to thinking "What if Prince played a classical piece like "Mozart's Requiem or Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata", but hit it up straight Jimi Hendrix style on the guitar. I think that would be awesome seeing that I never saw him do this before. Any Prince
fans that are Classical music lovers think this is a good idea or should he just stick to what he does best - which is everything!!!
biggrin razz lol wink P.S. Don't mention "Purple Rain" it doesn't count!

Great idea. Deodata did Rhapsody in Blue and it was brilliant!

I love classical music. I think the idea of Prince putting his own personal spin on classical is very intriguing! I'd like to hear that.

Prince can play anything. No one else can say that. That is why he is Prince.
