K503-3 Mozart Piano concerto no. 25 in C movt 3

[ilkinond]

The coda of this wonderful finale from 7.57 onwards is just so full of.... love.

The section starting at 3.56 is as beautiful as any other passage in Mozart (in my opinion, at least). But Mozart, with his abilities as a melody writer, could afford to treat it almost as a throw-away passage which appears once in the middle of a naive-sounding rondo and never again. I wish he had recycled it elsewhere (like he recycled the adagio melody from piano concerto 21 in the clarinet concerto).

Loves it.

Many years ago, it was this movement played by Leonard Bernstein that made me fall in love with Mozart and I never regretted it. Because of this piece, classical music became a part of my life.

Thank you.

I award this 3 Dresdens.

This performance is not on a par with Levin, Hogwood, and the AAM, but it still has a certain charm.

Mandaci una tua incisione del concerto e poi ne parliamo, bello. Sono curioso di sentire come suoni il pianoforte.

[smithsherman]

The orchestral opening actuals gets on quite well in it's contrast between sonnambulism and manic passion...until the pianist strides in ...and lays it all to rest...reciting in a perfectly meaningless and spiritless way so as to lay aside any potential hope for amusement.

Oh my.

By the way. I haven't barred you. Why should I? But it does appear that you have enabled something called friend lock, which prevents me from replying to your message.

I closed my mailbox because of the evilry that people write when they think they're unseen.Either send me an invite...or comment.

Smith,

He is trying to tell you in a manner less brusque than yours that he would rather discuss certain things in private so as NOT TO EMBARRASS YOU IN COMMENTS. Most YT users, yourself excluded, consider flaming best done in private. He is most certainly not being impolite. Despite your wealth of knowledge your tastes do tend to run in unusual directions, as is well known. :) Please realize that Richter, for example, is usually considered the paragon of pianism. Relax!

Dear Gerry,What you say here is reasonable and fairly accurate.Enjoy your day.
