András Schiff - Sonata No.30 in E, Op.109 - Beethoven Lecture-Recitals 

My fav Beethoven sonata. Upon hearing it you feel like you've known the composer, Beethoven for what seems to be a life time..Same with the other 3 of his last 4 sonatas. It's like a spiritual experience.

The last movement, which Schiff feels is the most beautiful ever written by Beethoven, is special to me too. Decades ago I decided I would have it played at my funeral.

op. 109 is my favorite of beethoven’s piano sonatas as well

Maestro Schiff illuminates the sonata with a well deserved light.

Thank you for uploading this lectures!

WHAT A LECTURE !!!! the end, waouwwwwwww

Absolutely wonderful! Another level.

22:47 second movement

Magnífico.

Thankyou for this

If you were transcribing the 1st of E major, where would you put the bar lines? Interesting, I think, why it starts on an "upbeat."

32:27 3rd mov

19:53-20:06 - almost exactly like in the e flat op 126...

12:34

12:35

Why the need to be disparaging to musicologist? Not necessary.
