Eschenbach - Mozart, Piano Sonata K.331 in A Major - I Andante Grazioso. Thema. Variations I_VI (1/2)

[loneydolly]

this seriously helped me finish my school work....thanks a bunch man

[23RESAMI]

I Just love it

[HaberQpongo]

simply a genious !!!

[chickenMuse]

just amazing!

[hipepleful]

I wonder compositions Mozart would have composed if he lived as long as Beethoven……

[pradeep200417]

@hipepleful You know Glen Gould said Mozart died too late rather than too soon. He never liked the later mozart who left salzburg. The Vienna Mozart you know

[skrattkantarellen]

@pradeep200417 Glenn's interpretation of this piece is also completely bizarre.... Maybe he didn't Mozart's music very well..

[pradeep200417]

@skrattkantarellen Yes i felt the same. he didnt like the later mozart and may be was forced by the music labels to play mozart. But Glenn is best known for his interpretations of Bach and he played Bach like no other

[mikis365]

amaizing mozart how many variaations to a simple sabject love it a lot!

[finariuroberto]

you can download with atube catcher ;)

[ginaa80]

Is this Eschenbach or Horowitz? Why does it say the artist id Horowitz?

[mathiaspeic]

The interpret ion is absolutely wonderful and this is one of the most beautiful musics ever, but the sixth variation is missing!

[IloveAmadeusMozart]

I love this sonata! Excellent interpretation! So good such Sviatoslav Richter.

[Snowfeatherlove]

Love this piece so much....especially the third variation. a minor... so sad....

[whomad1215]

depends who's playing it, when I play classical/baroque to me it's just a bunch of notes, when I play a romantic (Debussy, Scriabin, etc) the passion and true feeling of the music comes out.

[nicecoolstuff13579]

@FatSamuraiGaming You're stupid. :(

[riquelaboissiere]

It's so STUPID how a video like this will only get about 20k views and a video like "Charlie bit my finger" will get more than a million...

[ErubielA7x]

anyone know where i can download this?

[b12384]

I don't know how to comment on such splendour.

[LoveChillCool]

My favorite ~

[nicecoolstuff13579]

I really wish this kind of music would go on forever

[suitabledude]

@nicecoolstuff13579 it has, and it will.

[insanecaine]

Brickman needs to learn this.

[CreativePotion]

Perfect song to play around Christmas. :)

[layanjavier]

:D ; ) XD



[nicecoolstuff13579]

I wonder what would happen if I said

JUSTIN BIEBER

[FatSamuraiGaming]

@nicecoolstuff13579 I WILL BITE YOUR TINY DICK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nomester7]

@nicecoolstuff13579 he is not welcome here.

[nicecoolstuff13579]

AWESOME FOR STUDYING

[pixel8ed100]

[pixel8ed100]

@pixel8ed100 *done lol

[MaximisedInsight]

I love the part from 4:00 onwards. Was reminded of it by an Inspector Morse episode.

I am listening on a July night. Thank you.

[wibic]

Interpretazione meravigliosa, Complimenti!

[Metalovai]

Glenn "reinvented" it.

[rough10rider]

This helps me concentrate when studying/writing papers.

[apresmoisuka]

@rough10rider i'm writing a paper about mozart as i've been listening to this playlist.. :) i understand what you mean.

[aceboy147]

@rough10rider Same here dude. Shit works. I can't focus while listening to Lil Wayne. LOL

[suitabledude]

@rough10rider genius breads genius.

[kokomanation]

i love this i play it every day

[nawsmotomswan]

c'est une de mes chansons préférées

[jakevanfan]

They had to write this music down for to be preserved. No recording devices in Mozart's day. I know there are gifted people who play and sing music without reading it. But in order to be well rounded one should learn to read music.

[mario54671]

@jakevanfan Yes, absolutely. In fact, funny enough, it's actually harder to read music and learn it without having listening to it, than to play by ear without music. Playing by ear is really not that had. :P

[jbdmb41]

@jakevanfan i'm going to have to give you a hell yeah, i would find it hard to call myself a musician if i couldn't read music.

[hipepleful]

@jakevanfan agreed.

[ezioauditore1122]

its beautiful



[victorvideology]

Thanks for the music!

[pianoplayerpro]

awsome!

[youngmatthias]

I'm surprised so many people have missed that the final variation is missing! Or maybe they just don't do know there's one more?

[DuckLately]

@youngmatthias Haha, yeah! It ends on an unresolved chord, too. Where's the rest? =)

[dop216]

eccellente esecuzione di una sonata magnifica sotto ogni aspetto: vi ricordate il brano vincitore a Sanremo " Gli altri siamo noi"? Una variazione lo ricorda da vicino!

[haidisemirychan]

honestly, this is more beautiful and real than most of the melodramatic romantic music which most pianists are so occupied with. (Rachmaninoff, etc.)

[Montyleeny14]

@haidisemirychan This is an interpreted version of Mozart's piano sonata, my friend. :-) If this were played on a 18th century piano, then the results would be less rewarding as in those days, Pianos were not as sophisticated. It was not until the late 19th century the Pianos were further romanticised and thus they also included a lighter touch. Hence, this piece was played on the latter piano producing a romantic sound, rather than a more obscure one.

To this extent, romantic music leads on.

[Montyleeny14]

@haidisemirychan Can you elaborate on "literal" music?

[logodaedally]

Wonderful!... But the piano is slightly out of tune *cringes at the E

[giangra92]

Suonare mozart col cuore e con l'anima, non con la testa.

Io ci sto provando

[freda0138]

This is piece is so perfect.

[sstupefy]

This piece makes me cry. Absolutely beautiful.

[lukkasan]

so pretty... can almost play 3rd mov.

[jvjin007]

CHOICE

[Danstarzx]

MUSIC FOR REVISION THIS IS THE PIECE!

[DonRogerCorleone]

Super ekstra ten utwór zagrany w lekkim tonie, który bardzo dobrze się słucha ; )

[VuLeTrung]

love

[CamCouldCareLess]

i only listen 2 death metal, but this peice of music is amazin

[suitabledude]

@CamCouldCareLess i know a lot of friends who are like that.

[famousgq97]

i love mozart...i listen to it all the time when i study, especially this song.

[plovemm]

大好き。。。

[rubinsteino]

simply and clear, exactly like mozart has to be. a great interpretation

[bh5496]

horowitz looks like howitzer at a first glance

[jakool792]

Stunning

[mjdenmark1]

lol!!!!!!!! this is so relaxing!!!

:)))))

[sarahhodgson95]

very good interpretation, although I believe the 6th and final variation is missing?

[musiclover7652]

belzondium: u misinterpreted, lynnakramer was just saying that he played the music without passion, not that the music itself was without passion. Although I dont know how you can tell because you need to see the person playing; this is just a recording of the music, not a recording of the person playing the music :)

I really do love this piece though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrEbaby2010]

Consistency in tempo is maintained throughout the piece. This can hardly been grasped by other pianists. The last variation is played with vitality.

[underafrenzyspiral]

Schubert's lullaby sounds a bit like this in the beginning with the first notes.

[Francesco52983]

STUPENDO!!!!!(f.lippelli)

[lynnakramer]

this is played without passion though.

[metallicragex]

I love the cadence at the end of each variation. It is such a powerful harmony that it deserves to be repeated. It is like it says your pitiful wars and scruples are nothing compared to the power of the human spirit. Man, I hope that wasn't corny, haha.

[thlou]

@metallicragex Yes I do too. It is my favorite part of this lovely piece to play.

[MyGatopardo]

Sin duda alguna el dedo divino de Dios tocó el corazón de Mozart para dar vida a esta magnífica creación. Aleluya Mozart!!!!!!

[wibic]

Eschenbach SEI STRAORDINARIO! PER ME SEI IL NUMBER 1. E SU QUESTO NON CI PIOVE. GRANDISSIMOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[jlund3]

I love this piece. This was my baby boy's favorite lullaby that played his little mobile. I miss seeing the inquisitive he got on his face as it spun around, memorizing him.

I love you Riley - please wait for me up in heaven.

[kyouell]

@jlund3 I'm sure he is. ((((hugs))))

[lilwestcoast87]

this it best sonata of mozart ;);)

[sopranoandtenorsax]

Third variation is my absolute favorite!

[transfyxic]

does anyone have sheet music to this ? this song is essential.

[DealTurtle]

@transfyxic Look for a version edited by Richard Epstein

[phil8888]

Why don't they play the last note!!!!!!!!!!!!

[theromanpraetorian]

Je suis en amour avec des sonates de Mozart.

[b12384]

Sublime.

[Angel94angel94]

I know it's a matter of opinion but...it's magnificent...

[TechCuber]

Excellent, Fortissimo, Uitstekend

[1bol1]

lol, i heard this in a movie, "Danny The Dog"/ "unleashed"

[hardyharhar9]

this is my favorite mozart piano sonata

[norfolkwestern10]

he was supposed to reapeat the second part of the first movement

[mysteriousnyc]

i forget now, chopin

[Davi1405]

Essa sonata do Mozzart é realmente muito linda...

[26593365]

好好聽啊!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[heartandsoul555]

how come this isn't the full song?

[mees04101993]

watch part 2

[SzalonaSzymonka]

lol

[5835228]

This sonata can be ear in the movie "Four minutes" a film by Chris Kraus. I love this sonata. You should see the movie, it's the story of an aging German piano teacher who finds a young genius pupil incarcerated in the women's prison. Good movie!

Violette, Québec, Canada

[ballooncrusader]

My exam piece for Diploma. Oh god...

[TheVegastars]

excelente interpretacion gracias por dilatar estos oidos

[iamnguyenkhoi]

@TheVegastars I wish I could understand your espan~ol.

[jjdambrosio]

@iamnguyenkhoi

"excelent performance, thanks for expand (literally 'to dilate') this (my) ears"

[gaaaspi]

@TheVegastars DELEITAR*

[TheLuminica]

@TheVegastars ajajajaja.... quisiste decir "deleitar"... porque si no es asi, entonces debes verte como Dumbo ahora. XD

[fredpep]

well Geupel... That was Mozart's story... He's had a drinking problem. He lived a poor life. On the other hand, he had to write joyfull pieces for the emperor of Austria. At that time, you had to put aside your emotion when it was about music. Beethoven was one of the first and probably the greatest compositor of music in which he'd includ his emotion... Romantic era... Beethoven was someone deeply sad... it's when he became deaf that he wrote his best sad pieces... Anyway that's not the point.

[morvensky]

He was not the first. Haydn in my opinion, is emotional (sometimes superficial), and Baroque composers are emotional (but not very emotional). Most classical era composers are superficial and unemotional though.

[belzondium]

If Mozart's music is not passionate, there's no such thing as passion.

[LoquaciousInkSlinger]

@belzondium Well said, very well said.

[melancholyhumour]

@belzondium Amen!

[wolframkeith]

@belzondium

It depends on the one playing it...

Believe me, you could have the most beautiful pieces of music sound like crap by letting the wrong people play...

[codeman2008]

@belzondium A person who says Mozart's music is not passionate is not a musician in any sense. They can be the great performer of any instrument - but if they refuse to recognize the genius of ANY master composer (Mozart included - but not just Mozart) they automatically lose credibility.

[Imagirl979]

Geupel, never thought of it that way... always reminds me of a baby lying in bed. Pure.

[Geupel]

This is such an achingly beautiful piece. It's like it is telling the story of a person who is trying to hide a terrible, traumatic secret, but it is so painful that he is unable to. So sweet and eerie at the same time.

[milliliter12]

THANK YOU!@FALCO

[milliliter12]

i luv this!...soooo classical...

you gave it justice....cool

wht was the movie?

[Falco1436CV]

I think it was Jet Li's Unleashed

[stephengnelson]

this is good music for getting ones sanity back

[pelpremier]

I usually don't like Mozart, but this sonata is just great.

[djmland]

this song alone made unleashed one of the best movies i have ever seen.

[Paine436]

I'm in love with that movie now. xD and that song is such a contrast with everything, but it makes everything the way it is. Amazing movie. Amazing sonata.

[Rxnszjcd]

yes i luved the movie

[isayhi72]

While this is so beautiful, I think I have developed a soft spot for the more unconventional interpretations of Gould and Rachmaninonv.

[merapela]

This is the most beautifull Mozart sonata for me, I love it, and it is played as I like too, thank you for touching my heart

[glitter76289]

i agree with those who say this version is much nicer to listen to than gould's. honestly, i thought the gould recordings sounded like slow, detached practice rather than a polished performance. also prefer this over the rachmaninoff (i know he's a great pianist and all, but it's overly romanticized for my taste).

[sp9rks]

Nice and slow, how it should be played. Brilliant

[richard19786]

WONDERFULL!!!!!!!!

[merapela]

its absolutely wonderfull, to dream, to relax, to go to other worlds..

[hihowareyou22]

what sort of worlds do u go into in ur day dreams? just wondering..

[emaywhyay95]

I agree Dwrght007, I didn't like Gould's version. This one is much better.

[angelchor]

Gould's vversion is two wlow for the first mvmt. That's why I like this one better.

[TheLeonardoSaez]

Esta sonata es una de las cimas del arte mozartiano. Hermosa interpretación de un músico completo como lo es Eschenbach, a quien admiro mucho por su enorme carrera como pianista y director.

[MillyProductions]

favorite mozart sonata, and i'm proud to admit i love gould's version.

[kitkat1601]

it's soooo awesome!!

[summertimefairy1973]

FABULOUS!!

[momo1164]

can anyone find me the sheet music for this? and perhaps how to read sheet music? lol

[Riina810]

¡Ay, Dios mio! Me encanta esta pieza musical. Es grandiosa. La voy a escuchar hasta que me cansé (aunque lo dudo mucho). Gracias por subirla.

:) :) :) :) :) Súper.

[nozzgolef]

Jejejeje!!!!

[LPCLASSICAL]

I need that - after hearing Gould's nauseating playing of the same piece. Thanks.

[Dwrght007]

LOL LPCLASSICAL, that's exactly the reason I found this version too. I listened to Gould's version, then I immediately searched for another version and found this one.

[christoperfect]

Amen!!!

Le chant des anges

[luvepanda]

wow! what language? I always have loved your videos!! (Pauline) real name! ^^

[weirdOparade]

dude, thank you so much for uploading this ! since my music teacher played this, I'm looking for an ordinary version and here it is, thx so much! *hugs&kisses*

[sabinastucki]

Very very beautiful!

[luvepanda]

I said that your comment was a good one

[MortaSta]

Love this Sonata :) so beautiful....

[luvepanda]

me 2! I said that your comment was a very good one so you now have +1

[Nimenicamine01]

uy!, ese final!....?¿ falta el ultimo acorde de tònica!

[Ernesto7608]

Que lástima el error de formato al final! Esta es la mejor interpretación que he oido de esta sonata. En todo su album de sonatas, Eschenbach evita su ego y logra la pura esencia de la musica de Mozart.

[jsjassem]

just wonderful this sonata 331 composed : summer 1778 in paris
