One of the great secrets about this piece is that is is listed as being in C minor but there are no C minor chords until the very end. This is what we call tonic delay in the extreme. How great was Mozart?...don't ask.
Incredible. I could listen constantly, MINUS the commercial that blasts out just before one of the most beautiful parts of the Fantasia. Commercials......
Quelle doigté ...La finesse de Sir Schiff au service de Trazom...Les Bossendörfer ont une qualité de son qui convient particulièrement à cette Sonate ...Les Steinway (et Fils ) ne sont pas irrepassables pour les Classiques ... Merc encore , Siri...!
I think you make a good point...while I was thinking how special Mr. Schiff plays in his special manner, the tone of the B adds a different dimension to it, likely via his own preferences, although I think opinions would differ amongst listeners.
Yes it's lovely, a very refined performance. Having said that, I do prefer the live version by Schiff's contemporary, Zoltan Kocsis, which is so different - 'gutsy' and dramatic, I would say. I'll listen to one or the other, depending on my mood!
Una de las obras complejas de Mozart. Hermosos contrastes de modo inocente y dramático. Debe haber sido de su última época. Me encanta la ejecución de András Schiff. Gracias!!
You can also find this harmonic motif on Beethoven's "Pathetique" sonata (1st movement) but much more embellished. So basically, "Succesion" is based on Beethoven's "Pathetique" sonata.
yes I was thinking exactly that... where is it? I thought it was Wigmore Hall until I saw the windows. (Have to confess I've never actually been to the Wigmore Hall)
The beauty about this particular event is the little mistakes in french suites and stuff. It’s more of playing than a “performance”. The word “perform” has a negative connotation. Schiff gives us the most delightful musical moments here, gives us view into his alone playing. It’s a jampack of musical philosophy, sentiment, divinity, and transcendence. It’s what music is. Defined by schiff. That hall defines music just as well, wouldnt be surprised if it was his pick to the cubic inch
I love this sonata and hear it in my inner ear quite differently than Mr. Schiff. While I have a huge respect towards him and his interpretation, I couldn't help but hear Bach-like sound written all over it.
Un de mes pianistes préférée mais sur cette version main droite des fois ne tombe pas tout à fait en même temps que la gauche ce qui fait une sorte de fla fla un peu comme une accacciature.
Mozart wouldnt like Schiffs performance. He is great for Bach. But for Mozart u have to express emotions as if u were in an opera. The important Fp in the 32th notes of the adagio (many editions wrong), he didnt play.Very poor interpretation.
What a SHAME is the combination of such a composer, pianist, interpretation, setting, piano, flowers, image and the satanic slavery of the plandemic rags, over the audience faces (starting 4:40)... That will remain a stain on history forever.
