Beethoven Piano Sonata "Pathétique" No.8 in C minor, Op.13 

Beethoven Sonata No.8 '' Pathétique '' _____________________________________ I. Grave -- Allegro di molto e con brio: 0:05 II. Adagio cantabile: 8:11 III. Rondo: Allegro: 13:15 '' Great Performance Traum, nicely done! ''

I thought this piece was impossible to play, but luckily I started simply piano 6 months ago and boy was I right, it is still impossible to play.

The name of this piece perfectly describes my piano skills. Edit it's been 3 years: idk if anybody cares but I'm actually learning this now 😭😭😭 Man I never would have guessed I could reach this level. Keep practicing guys if I can do it so can you! You've got this 🫡

Beethoven when he plays it: Pathetique Me when I play it: Pathetic.

'hmm.. let’s find something sightreadable..' *ah, beethoven pathetique, perfect!*

I'm gonna carefully assume that this is my favourite beethoven sonata

Can we just appreciate the fact that this guy played with no mistakes...

I feel like it's gonna be any day now when we get a notification for "crazy pianist plays impossible sonata Hammerklavier 106 with bruised femur!"

Man, the power, the raw emotion. Beethoven truly is the grandfather of metal!

I approve! I'm currently writing my 33rd Piano Sonata.

This is definitely beethoven’s daily casual stretch for the fingers in the morning😂

as a guitar player I feel huge respect for piano player it is so amazing

I feel identified with this song, not cause of the feelings it transmits, but cuz of the name

11:32 this movement means so much to me. I have been diagnosed with 3 different mental illnesses and listening to it helps me handle the constant suffering while still allowing me to look at my pain and to hum along with it. God bless you Ludwig Von Beethoven! RIP

beethoven made some real bangers.

Oh my gosh, I thought I thought you were gonna drop the movements individually, but boy was I wrong (Actually I still am wrong, I did not know he posted this earlier this year, Still) Traum is incredible and we appreciate and love your playing and you, especially your dedication. Traum is simply incredible!

Love this sonata so much. Started learning this, but arthritic fingers aren't good when you have to play big chords. Thanks so much for this performance. Just beautiful.

this interpretation is fucking amazing. this is my new Pathetique. i always floated between kempff and gould. this is right in the middle in the most beautiful way. nothing feels rushed, or too slow. all the emotions and outbursts are there and acknowledged. Nothing feels left out, or dragged, or rushed. That is phenomenally impressive.

Fully expecting you to be a professional pianist when you do a reveal.

This is crazy. My teacher just gave me this piece a week ago. What a coincidence!

imagine living next to this guy

I love how crisp and clear your piano is paired with your emphasis in the first movement is utter perfection.

Currently doing Music GCSE, saw this as one of our set works and thought “why not…I’m gonna try learn this” I already know I’m in for one long ride, wish me luck 👍

Adagio cantabile hits different after watching Takt op.Destiny

2:11 - 2:39 this part is so beautiful!

After playing this piece for 20 yrs, finally pianists are putting up more performances onto RU-vid. I always thought not many people would appreciate this Sonata. I like this speed and momentum, the toughest part I would say its the running down notes and jumping back up fast for the 1st movement. Well played!

1st movement :- introduction 0:00 - 1:43 exposition (1st) 1:44 - 2:11 2nd subject 2:12 - 3:13 repeat 3:14 - 4:42 opening again 4:43- 5:24 development 5:25 - 6:05 recapitulation 6:06 - 7:20 ending 8:01 - 8:07

Hey guys we are before Liszt and Chopin.. Also I didn’t watch it yet but amazing interpretation Traum! You’re going places

The adagio cantabile is one of the most Heavenly melodies i've ever listen, thx for upload this piece. RIP Beethoven 🥀🌹

This piece perfectly encapsulates the melodrama I feel at being consistently single through my early 20's.

I've been working on this piece for a few months now and I absolutely love it! One of my favorite works by Beethoven for solo piano

Practiced this piece for a year but still learning the first crosshand part of first movement shows how pathétique my piano skill was LOL

I remember sitting in my GCSE music class about to study the first movement and my teacher played this piece and it blew me away. One of the reason I love classical music so much now

Those pauses in the first part!! 🤩🤩The entire work is so well done! I have about 18 spots I wanted to highlight saying I loved the expressions, or those particular parts. All I know is I’m so happy and feel like I just attended a performance in a proper setting. Thank you so much for this

There are many great Beethoven Sonatas, but this one holds a special place in my heart as it was the first full sonata I learned to play. Fantastic playing as always, Traum!

Beautiful rendition as always, I absolutely love how you used Beethoven’s dynamics in such an delightful manner!

My favorite sonata of Beethoven and I really waited for Traums interpretation 😉 Thank you so much Traum, you are amazing!!! 😘😘😘

this is the best interpretation of Pathetique sonata I have ever heard. Beautiful playing by Traum

Back at 2 Million views! Thank you so much Traum for this excellent performance. This video was what lead me to eventually learn this piece 2 years later.

Finally I can listen all movement's in a single video on Spotify, thank you ☺️

This one and the Moonlight Sonata has got to be my favorite from my favorite composer. phenomenal performance, Traum!

Невероятный канал, настоящий бриллиант! Спасибо за эстетику, вы дарите вдохновение!

Even though this is obviously not nearly as long as other piano pieces, it's still amazing to me how people can just do performances of this length and still sound amazing. Awesome job on the interpretation as always!

My favourite Beethoven sonata. Very well played. Thank you for this awesome rendition

This cover should be considered the standard of playing this piece. Have heard other renditions and yours is far and away the best! Great job and thank you for showing how you did it!

Thank you for this superb rendition of a classic.

Is one of my favorites pieces of Beethoven! Maravilloso Traum! 👏👏👏

I commend how well you played this: exactly how I intended

Schönes Stück! Bravo Traum!

Outstanding!

Yes, oh my Beethoven; marvelous interpretation. Thank you! 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

Чудесная музыка! Прекрасное исполнение! Браво!!!!!!

Gracias mil. Qué preciosa sonata e interpretación!🙏🌹🇲🇽

Totally awesome! Thank you!

Breath taking performance

Anyone else get HBO "Succession" vibes at 7:05 - 7:11?

The second movement is just hauntingly beautiful

Executed flawlessly!!! Bravo!!!

Love it!! ❤

The second movement is such a moving piece to learn as a beginner, love it.

maravillosa pieza ❤ un genio increible

THIS IS THE BEST RU-vid CHANNEL I HAVE EVER SEEN

Best sonata...best playing i ever seen❤👌

I play the piano for almost 10 years and i still cant play this masterpiece as good as it needs to be played

This is what you upload after playing the whole mephisto waltz with wearing a scream mask What a legend.

Development of first mvt is one of the most genuine things ever written.

Wtf, why does your style where you pronounce the melody so sharp fit the second movement so much? Beautiful.

8:10 so this is the reinterpretation part for nct ‘golden age’ title

와 이분은 진짜 잘 치신다...... 대체로 곡을 속도감 있게 치시네요 그런데도 음이 정확해서 존경스럽습니다♥

I'm learning this at the moment!! I'm really excited to practice this

Very impressive performance. Thanks for sharing with us.

Hey I'm learning this piece right now and I listen to your interpretations a lot. I will definitely take examples from your version. Thanks for uploading so much Traum.

This piece is crazy ! I love all the movements and it’s precily that piece who makes me love Beethoven so much (and believe Beethoven was an E.T ^^)

This is so emotional😍

Beautiful and fascinating relaxation

Your tremolos are so clean

This is the first time I ever listened to the first movement of Pathetique Sonata. Your interpretation is unique. My favorite is the third movement, actually. Congratulations TRAUM .............AND THANK YOU FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE.

Traum is so underrated. I’m inspired by this channel! Great job!

I'm learning this right now! It's going great so far 🎉

The first movement? The epitome of perfection! The second movement was lovely. I think this one is really up for a little bit of creative interpretation, and I personally would have played some spots more piano (but who am I to challenge Traum? lol). 10:40-11:32 section was the best in my opinion! The third movement was also amazing. I liked your choice of speed and the articulation was lovely. Amazing performance! :D

Just recently I am done learning the second movement by heart, I absolutely love it

This is very beautiful bravo!! Good job and nice performance!

There's no words for this.. Breath taken!

Muiiito lindo!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Such a beautiful piece and now I see why it took you some time to upload a video i mean it is 18 minutes long impressive 👍

Beethoven was a freak of nature!

Que hermoso! Mil gracias!

Came here to hear this masterpiece after I heard from NCT that it was used as a sample for Golden Age (the adagio cantabile part). Beethoven was a genius and you covered this flawlessly woahhh

Incredible technically proficient and musically profound interpretation! I can't thank you enough for performing this - one of my favourite pieces - for us. Often times words can hardly express what a specific recording of a musical piece can mean in the heart of the person listening. You are truly a Traum!

Wow i just started learning this!! Awesome performance

Excellent! The best I saw about this sonata on this format.

This sonata is AMAZING. It was the first sonata that i have learned every mov. Its simply wonderful the change of the first movement to the second and then the third. But my favorite one is Waldstein

I started learning the second movement yesterday 😄 My teacher said i could finish it in a month or so Wish me luck Update #1: learned 3 lines so far. Loving this piece Update #2: learned 2 and a half pages. (Took a 2 week break from practicing because i had exams) Update #3 (Friday/29th of January/ 2021): just finished the entire second movement🙂 I loved it. I'm gonna start the first movement in a couple of days! Wish me luck (again xD) Update #4 ( Wednesday/ 10th of February/2021): finished the introduction of the first movement and started with the M.T Update #5 ( Wednesday/ 24th of February/ 2021): finished the M.T yesterday and just started with the S.T (for some reason I didn't practice AT ALL for like a week that's why I'm behind schedule 😢) Update #6 ( Wednesday/ 3rd of march/ 2021): finished the S.T but its still a little wonky. Just started with the (I forgot what its called, the part after the S.T) turns out the first movement is not difficult at all. It's just a bit fast, but if you can play it slowly you can play it quickly. Update #7 (Thursday/ 11th of march/ 2021): Yeah... It's hard BECAUSE its fast. I memorized that fast part (4:08 until 4:40) but it doesn't sound good at all lol, it's too slow. Probably gonna take me a few days to play it in the right tempo. Update #8 (Tuesday/ 30th of march/ 2021): Made that "hard" part sound good like two weeks ago but i forgot to update. I thought this was some advanced level sonate and that I'm a 15 yearold prodigy because i didnt think it was that hard, turns out i didn't think it's that hard BECAUSE it's NOT that hard lol. Anyways, I got to the second M.T part which has some new chords (i cant remember what its called). I have 2 pagea left to finish the 1st movement yay! Update #9 (Tuesday/ 13th of april/ 2021): Finally finished the firat movement yay! (The last page is still a a bit wonky but i dont care). Just startes the 3rd movement 2 hours ago lol. Update #9.5: I just uploaded the 2nd movement on my RU-vid channel :D Update #10 (Friday/ 14th of may/ 2021): The piano i play is at my grandma's house... she died 3 days ago at 11:42 am... i dont really feel like playing at all... i cancelled my piano lessons for the next two weeks because i might've caught covid from my grandma before she passed away... idk what will happen now, but i wont quit playing the piano, my grandma loved my playing eventhough she was partially deaf... I finished 3 pages of the 3rd movement and got to that slow expressive part Update #11 (Tuesday/ 1st of june/ 2021): I still have 1 more page to finish the third movement but its all super slow lol, gonna start with "Appasionta" today and keep working on "pathetique" slowly on the side. I probably wont post any more updates on this video. It's been a fun and lovely journey, i really enjoyed this sonata, which is my first sonata ever. Cheers, -Nadeem

Awesome that you upload this piece, one of my favorite beethoven pieces :D

It’s such a beautiful playing…

Tengo 14 años y es todo un honor que esta obra maestra me haya permitido ganar un concurso nacional, definitivamente es la pieza que más difruto tocando y oyendo.

This is genuinely such a beautiful piece, I haven’t heard anything this beautiful in a while 🥹

I love this channel

PERFECTLY!

Thank you for this great performance.
