Someone played this in a school piano recital earlier this month, and it is the most beautiful piano piece I've ever heard. I wish it could be set in an orchestra.
Beautiful song! I really like how how he plays the Haydn piano sonata 49 in e-flat major the second movement. He absolutely is a master at interpreting musical pieces, I bow down to you Alfred Brendel.
Beautifully played. Brendel many times bangs out, in other pieces, the fortissimos, but I think he stays in bounds in this recording. Thank you for posting.
@@noelleggett5368 I've been known to make discreet little marks on pieces with weird sharps or flats. Because it takes me ridiculously long to play those notes without thinking about it. It worlks well enough, but I confess I'm not proud of myself.
He wanted to achieve a flowing feeling within the music. It's useful in that case to use longer bars, so that it feels more connected, as well as a different division (alla breve, instead of normal 4/4). He could've also halved each note, making 16th note arpeggios, then everything would've fit in a regular 4/4 bar. But using these short notes creates a hectic and fast feeling in the player, whereas Schubert was striving, as I said, for a calm, flowing sound which is better achieved with this notation. Hope this helps
