András Schiff - Sonata No.9 in E, Op.14/1 - Beethoven Lecture-Recitals 

LECTURE NOTES: -----------1st movt--------------- 1. Beethoven wrote a string quartet version of this in F major. 2. @3:43 the first 4 notes foreshadow Op.110. 3. @4:20 could hear the 4 instruments in a string quartet, with the last voice(cello) one note different. 4. @8:23 the bass with little exclamations resemble Mozart's "Jupiter" symphony. 5. @8:49 this sonata possesses a duality with its constant switch between minor & major, that points towards Shubert 6. @9:44 the 4-note main motif is now in the bass. 7. @10:29 Shubert connection: sonatina for violin & piano No.2, D.385 8. @11:23 new theme: long phrases of octaves played in legato. A new piano technique neither Haydn nor Mozart used. 9. @12:56 recapitulation in chords --------------2nd movt: minuet-like-------------- 10. @15:51 anachronistically Bhahmsian: Intermezzo in E minor, Op. 119, No.2 11. @16:30 sounds a little medieval, due to the plagal harmonies 12. @18:01 one-note crescendo on high E 13. @20:18 3 heartbeats & it's finished. Attaca. --------------3rd movt: sonata rondo-------------- 14. Beethoven's writing psychological sonatas from now on. 15. @21:22 starts on an upbeat: 3,4,1,2 think Bach's Gavotte en rondeau in Violin Partita No.3, BWV.1006 16. @25:11 syncopated variation 17. @25:21 the only fortissimo eruption

Thank you, Sir András! I enjoyed every minute of this lecture, I particularly was deeply moved by your last phrases.

Movt. 2: 15:14 🍂🧴⌚️ Op. 14 - considered lighter and easier but incredibly complicated to interpret

my teacher just pointed out the connection of this to Haydn d minor string quartet (Quinten)
