Gulda Mozart Sonata 545 1 mov (Singular VERSION)

[Sviolinist]

Great playing

[canonlei]

so clear.

[raywoodsk]

Regardless of what you think of Gulda's interpretations, his playing is amazingly precise. The runs are the cleanest of anyone playing Mozart that I have heard. I like his recordings of the Mozart piano concertos, but the solo pieces sound a little mechanical. His tempos are also faster than what I Iike.

[gugunchik]

he is so great, that can play this in C minor if he wants to, and nobody will stop him:)

[princenosiatajansen]

möchtegerninterpretation xD

die Veränderungen sind so rah und unwichtig, dass sie eig. das eigentlich stück zerstören

aber er junge hat eine total aubere technik. alle

achtung...

der flügel ist auch fett

[jerrys88]

I have no problem with ornamenting Mozart's music, but do his improvised ornaments sound stylistically in good taste to you? Not to me. Nothing special about the rest of his playing either in my opinion. For Mozart sonatas played to perfection with impeccable taste listen to Barenboim.

[wayneredhart]

@jerrys88 Yes, they do indeed. They sound entirely appropriate and within Mozart's own style. Certainly not more extreme than the type of ornaments that Mozart sometimes notated. In fact, they are tremendously restrained compared to Mozart's variants for a segment in the F major sonata's slow movement.

[barliman2001]

Friedrich Gulda war wohl der einzige Pianist, der sich erlauben konnte, seine eigene Mozartversion zusammenzubasteln - und die dann auch noch überzeugend war.

Ein tragischer Verlust für die Musik...

[ellihaysee]

mmmm, a delight.

[IanPianist2]

I HATE THE MODIFICATIONS =(

[Alejandro270193]

@IanPianist2 I love them!

[jupiterki]

extraordinario la mejor version que he escuchado, nose si habra otra que la supere o que alcanze la misma calidad.

Me gustaria escuchar una version de Claudio Arrau.
