I can only imagine the joy that existed in Mozart's soul to have been able to compose this. He must have been pleased to have created such a masterpiece.
He had kind of an unfortunate life actually. He and his sister were the only 2 out of 7 siblings to survive infancy. His mother died when he was young, his father was very strict, and he was shunned by his first love. He got married later but only 2 of his 7 children survived past infancy. Most surprising to me, was that he was always poor despite having such talent. He was dismissed from his first prestigious position in Salzburg and in his second position, he was paid as much as common cook. :( Despite having composed hundreds of works in his short life, he never made good money and died penniless.
Sadly, it never will. The dude who produced this music crashed his sports car outside a Chateau. He had overdosed on cocaine. I'll never understand these celebs.
When I taught 2nd grade I played it all the time for my students-- they loved "the symphony of toys" and ronda a la turca "-- it was pure bliss to watch those kids at how they loved Mozart
Im a rocker, old time 60's and 70's and on till present, and I find it amazing how many guitar riffs and solos sound like some of these classic songs, especially that last little piece at the end, I can't put my finger on it, yet, but that is same rhythm and note changes as a rock song I know . Ive found many more like that, Led Zeppelin is notorious for it in my book. I don't think there is anything wrong with it, makes me wonder about music 100 yrs from now, all the old songs that no one has ever heard, will make a come back in their music as well , Im sure, bc we all know History repeats itself .
My mother used to play this all the time when I was little so this song means a lot to me. Every time I hear it it in a movie or elsewhere I think back to my mom playing.
Heard my robotics teacher playing this song on the school's piano and gosh, so beautiful! Gave me chills. I forgot to ask for the name of the song but it sounded like Mozart so I searched 'mozart fast piano song' and IT APPEARED. GOD BLESS THE INTERNET TBH.
mozart fast piano song :) ...and it appeared :). funny. sometimes one can really type just a bit, and the internet finds it. i'll try with.... "rainbow pot of gold" :)
@@jeanetienne6288 No, but i am someone who can take a joke. But i wont attack your character like you did to me as that kind of behavior doesnt net me any truth or wisdom. Good day.
Justin. To be honest I don't agree, there are many 17th, 18th and 19th century composers who are still famous. A few examples are Bach, Handel, Beethoven, Haydn, Schubert and Vivaldi.
@@MrRQBQ There were hundreds of composers who died into obscurity. Bach almost faded out before Mendelssohn saved him. Europe had essentially a composer or two for every royal's court, not to mention apprentices for each. 90% of them have had their manuscripts lost to time.
@@btnt5209 I don't disagree with what you say but that's not quite what Justin's original comment was about. Yes, many of them were obscure during their lifetime but today they are famous and celebrated.
@@btnt5209 well yeah obviously most of the great musicians like Bethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi and Back will be forgotten and erased by the time as well as Elvis Presley, Freddy Mercury, John Lennon, Jimmy Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, Johnny Cash, etc. But look at the positive way, in 100+ years nobody will remember artists like Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Drake, Nicky Minaj, Cardi B, Lil Pump, 6ix9ine, etc. XD
Ironic, because the first movement is the most classical sonata movement there is. You won't find many pieces that stick to the sonata form this closely
from 4:03 to 7:33 i always close my eyes and listen to this masterpiece , really can't describe what i feel and where this music take me every time i listen to it
Yo I've been passively searching for this for years when I remember to. Then one day I was like "Fuck this man, I'm gonna find this song no matter what", so I literally put 'Mozart do do do do do do do' in the search, and I found it! Lmao
Today I was handed a sticky note written by someone I had never met or seen before. On it was written Mozart Piano Sonata no. 16 In C major Group 1 I have no idea what it means, but here I am.
I'd really love to claim that someone was me, but I'll exercise some honesty and say I was inspires after reading your comment to go around handing notes with that message to everyone I met for a week.
I’ll never forget that time in my freshman year of high school when I was listening to pt. I of this piece with my earphones on at school while waiting for math class to start, drumming my fingers on the desk to the piano parts and a boy wearing thick glasses and ripped jeans approached me and said “Damn, that must be some intense heavy metal you’re listening to to be drumming that hard”. He never knew I was just vibing to Mozart.
Sometimes in our search for composition ideas we overlook the simple. Mozart is a really good example that you can do a lot without doing a lot, if you know what I mean.
After watching the film Amadeus, every time I hear a Piano work by Mozart, I just imagine him playing as if it was nothing and doing that ridiculous childish laugh ;')
My dear Mozart, no one here was in your generation, but we still hail thee. I stood in your Geburtshaus and the tears came out. I was in such awe to be there and to see your wonderful compositions under glass and to walk where you once walked. Thank you for your gifts that will live on until the sun shines no more.
This has to be one of my favorite pieces because of how my brother literally learned the full sonata just by listening to it and finding each key one by one. Truly amazing.
Fun fact: Mozart was able to do the exact the same. He can listen to a piece once and is able to perfectly recreate. He once used this to his advantage when he perfectly recreated a piece from a church where the sheet music was kept a secret (so only members of the church knew how to play it).
Some months before the comments were disabled, now that I come back it isn't, now I know way more about classical music and I think I enjoy even more this piece, Mozart was a genius indeed.
Each part of the song is like a phase of life starting as childlike to more mature and deep and then in being old and wise returning to a childlike phase.
I remember that when I was a kid [2006 born], I would listen to this sonata -- the first movement of which I've played at that time -- on RU-vid. I still remember the melodies of all the "movements", which -- at the time -- was a new word for me; I barely knew English well enough to do something more than write "Mozart 16" on the RU-vid search, which was my piece of information to hear this masterpiece from a new perspective. I considered the second movement to be a slow and boring version of the first, and I liked the third; now -- when I'm a bit older -- I've come to appreciate the different paces of Classical pieces. Looking back, I think that was the starting of my journey into Classical music, and I'm looking forward to hearing more classical in the future to come!
Mozart y Beethoven son iconos de la música, esto es calidad y buena música. Por fin algo bueno entre tanta basura de RU-vid escuchar cada nota es algo tan, no se, me encanta Me enamoré de la musica clásica❤
so glad that al least here people don't say.. 'who is listening in 2019?'. I hate them -.- We are different people. If I close my eyes I can dream with this music.
Of the many compositions this is the one where I see Mozart at the piano in front of me. It is his voice. it brings tears of wonderment and joy to me...i am 80 year sold. perhaps I'll be able to bow to him somewhere...some time.
when i was in primary school and i couldnt focus on my homework, my mom bought me a discman with some classical songs. there was piano sonata 16 and turkish march on the disc and i really loved it^^ while listening to classic i made my homework well^^
i love modern music too but , when i listen to something like this i feel like i went through a much more profound experience.. an adventure.. i feel like im experiencing a life in the music .. complete with its ups..downs..and unexpected changes...
This piece sounds like a love song: at first, the beautiful feeling and joy of being in love, then the difficult moments with emotional instability involved, but at the end, the power of love is stronger and the joyous feeling at the beginning prevails 💕
