Well, one person who teaches piano there that I know seems to think that the Hammerklavier is easier than the Appasionata and the Waldstein...so...

I had the time of my life there and cannot recommend it enough. I learned valuable life lessons, played a ton of great music, much of it for the first time, was immersed among like minded talented artistic peers, made lifelong friends, etc. I could go on and on. I even learned to canoe there. All nestled in the glorious pine forests, with lakes on either side. It's lovely.

Downsides: It can get a little overly rah-rah at times, and the food sucks. YMMV, I was there a long time ago now, this was back in 1987. Eek, showing my age!
