It's definitely a type of deceptive cadence, but I think sadly it's a bit less simple than V-vi because of the G#. --> vii°7-vi (ignoring inversions) is one way that gets the same idea across ;)
There's that wonderful masterclass where he gets down on the floor to demonstrate proper contact with the keys - he comes across as extremely warm and funny.
I saw him in London, he played Ravel "La Valse", in one place there was a pause and the audience started to applaud, he made an exquisite gesture "hang on a mo, not quite finished". So I have always thought of him as very humorous and spontaneous.
nah man, Zim's strikes me as the pianist you just want to hang out with and have a coffee or a bear or watch the game with. As someone who has great personality in and outside of music.
The man always plays with great confidence, profoundly understands the music, and has mind-blowing note security. Watching him play and conduct Beethoven's 2nd Piano Concerto simultaneously is one of the most incredible displays of musicianship I've ever seen.
@@arthurhorowitz5345 Yes. I completely agree with you. My favourite pianis ever. Everything he does is perfect. No matter if it is baroc, classical or romantic. And of course his Chopin is unic!!!😀
I love his recordings (Debussy Preludes❤ ). Didn't know he had such a great sense of humour though. And BTW, those of us VERY close to Zimerman's age aren't so sure about the use of the word "old".😅
@@arthurhorowitz5345 Haven't heard them but will definitely give them a go. I love his recording of the concertos (and really, any other Chopin I've heard him in.)
@@zenonorth1193 So you should. Those recording (of Chopin Ballads) are pure gold. I have never listened ballad played better than Zimmerman even on the Chopin competition (live and transmission)
@@zenonorth1193 You haven't heard of Zimerman's 4 Ballades? That's crazy. It is probably one of the most famous recordings ever (and one of the greatest Chopin recording!).
@@FrostDirt I've "heard of" them, just haven't heard them yet. And while I appreciate your input, let me just point out "so many notes [i.e., recordings of Chopin], so little time."
Some people say he's too mechanical, too clean. Somehow too perfect. But how can that be a bad thing? To me, it's as if he has no ego. He plays the pieces the way they want to be played. He's like a clear glass. I like temperamental musicians too, but Zimerman is something special.
I've always loved Zimerman's interpretation of this piece by Mozart, not least the gestures he makes at the end. The look on his face - the way he flings his right hand as if to say "this is just another work over" 😂😂😂😂😂 ... I always enjoy his interpretations....
well there's something to it if you can play and make people thing you're the best while you're playing. When he stops, I can remember that there's Vladimir Horowitz and Seong-Jin Cho and probably Clara Schumann for all I know. But while I'm listening to him play? He's the best.
As a pianist of that caliber you can't "memory slip" a cadence like that. They might make up a different voicing of it, but only few would hear the difference.
What was that all about? Mozart included plenty of wit in his compositions. Feigning a memory lapse three chords before the end is pretty shallow. Just play what is written. If Mozart included something witty, it will draw a chuckle.
