Bravo~~!! Brava.~!! :D

[Dirkovic80]

3:56 - 4:15 absolutely stunning and amazing, this sequence influenced many great composers after him listen for example to beethovens moonligh sonata (especially the 3rd mvt.) and compare it to this,

how he plays with the bass and the rhythm , it deserves totally the attribute "maestoso"

seems like mozarts pool of ideas was of infinite size

only bach and mb handel can mess with him in an overall comparison

[charlycrett]

so beautiful and incredible

Que buena música!! .

Shame he plays the latter part twice, just doesn't work.the dark climax at the end should be final imo. You can't just end like that with all that energy and then just pick it up again and restart it like nothing happened. In fact there is no way to repeat the second half in a meaningful way after that climax.

For me its the same for all the Scarlatti sonatas with repeating sections, where invariably there is a darker second section, which for me is the ultimatum of the piece and non repeatable

[Nachtmarchen]

@tarquin161234 I agree, the development repeat has actually fallen out of favor with many performers again - thankfully.

[fontinau]

@tarquin161234 Clearly, Mozart didn't know what he was doing.

[tarquin161234]

@fontinau I think it might just be what you're used to. As I said I am used to the second section being played once, and maybe that's why it feels right that way.

Thank you for shedding light on this matter with your profound and perceptive comment.

[fontinau]

@tarquin161234 You're welcome.

@tarquin161234 Maybe you're a dedicated follower of fashion.

[gitarrenmart]

@tarquin161234 You might be right, but it's still a very modern point of view. If you compare several pieces from this time (the most impressive example would be the W. A. Mozart - Fantasie in C- Moll KV. 47) ,you'll find always bright part that's contrasting these dark parts. It's all about perfect balance, in harmony as in structure.

[PsychoLemonpie]

I just learnt playing it and I thought I had achieved something..big! but after hearing this, at that speed, I feel like a complete zero, hehe :P

[HimeArissa]

@PsychoLemonpie I feel the same.

[XVJaVIVX]

Wow im learnig this interpratation right now and its very difficult

[flippert0]

He adds an extra note at the beginning (for no good reason).

But his interpretation is of greater depth than the others floating around on YT.

[ianuus]

@flippert0 On my version there's the ornamented note at the start :P

[flippert0]

@ianuus Either I'm really mistaken regarding the score sheet or there are different editions of the sheet music out there.

[ComposerMK]

He plays from the URTEXT editions, which is the original edition that Mozart wrote. All other editions are edited. So, they might have some notes missing. I have the URTEXT edition of this piece and it's exactly as he plays it.

[pianoaddict06]

@flippert0 on the urtext version its an ornament

[RenatoABabka]

best interpretation, but he add some notes in some parts, but his interpretation was the best till now i ever heard...

[ComposerMK]

@RenatoABabka , He doesn't add notes. He plays from the URTEXT editions, which is the original edition that Mozart wrote. All other editions are edited. So, they might have some notes missing. I have the URTEXT edition of this piece and it's exactly as he plays it.

[steef689]

Till now the best one i've heard. But is it just me or does he hit an extra note at the beginning of the piece at . 0.18?

And the softness, so fluent. It's by far the best!

[aaabbbccc5]

Best interpretation!

[charlycrett]

WOW!!!!!
