Claude writes and performs a Beethoven-style sonata movement entirely in LilyPond

A user asked Claude Fable 5.2 to compose a Beethoven-style piano sonata movement: the model wrote the score in LilyPond, recorded it, and produced a video where every note on screen matches the source file.
Replies joked the result sounds more like Mozart or pre-Opus 1 Beethoven — the style isn't quite there, but the fully automated score-writing-to-performance pipeline is impressive.
