[jackahap]

Very beautiful

[ABBAetGreenDay]

a very very beautiful piece !! IMO it's one of the most beautiful in all over the romanticism period

[nowcoffeetime]

nur ein Wort: wunderbar!

[oricalcross]

beautiful peice :)

[charlesdarwin55]

IMO the best piece by Schubert! At least one of them! Kudos to Franz!

[Rambuzzle]

Perhaps I am mistaken, but it seems to me that the actual notes are not too difficult, with some practice it shouldn't take too long to get it up to this tempo. The difficult part is the dynamics, how do you make it so passionate at a relatively high pace?

[Euclid818]

any tips? i can't get the melody rite

[galaxian06]

beautiful

[costep]

Ich bin überrascht. Das Tempo ist noch etwas schneller, als ich es mich zu spielen traue. (Wobei es nicht an einer technischen Limitation liegt.) Ich habe es zuletzt bewusst langsamer gespielt.

Aber wenn Barenboim das so anlegt, kann das Tempo nicht so falsch sein. Ich mag sein Spiel, es wirkt so "menschlich".

[FuyuhiNekozawa]

I wish I could play it like this.

[gumdrops27]

How did i know that this would be played extremely fast in this video

[historyman4773]

Thank you for including the music! Nice to be able to follow the notes as they're being played.

[wawa314159]

This starts in E flat major but ends in e flat minor. Is it innovative in Schubert's time?

[nopathtofollow1]

@wawa314159 yes it was indeed. not bad, mate! ;-)

[eurekabach]

@wawa314159 well, its an 'Impromptu', so he was free enough to end his composition with a minor tonality.

[thekingofpiano93]

Fantastico! 

[thekingofpiano93]

Fantastico!

[mcfy25]

excellent. one word only to describe it. thank you for uploading it!!!!

[kiduarhl]

A lovely intepretation. Barenboim has sung the melody out of this piece. A fantastic Composer and a fantastic performer.

[chicmagnet4816]

and i jizzed in my pants

[Musicownz1997]

im using this for List C grade 10 RCM exam :D

and for all u people, just cuz a piece is fast doesnt mean its good.

on the other hand, for this piece u could play it fast, but not too fast :D

[Bruce88keys]

@Musicownz1997 lame

[EnigmusJ4]

Even Barenboim took the last chord down an octave in the left hand... I no longer feel bad about doing it. xD

[musissionary93]

Sorry, but the B section reminds me of John Anderson singing. ;)

[graceeeyyyyyyy1210]

im practicing this piece rite now but i definitely cannot play it this fast >.<

this is for my nysma level 6

[ChickenBakedRice]

@graceeeyyyyyyy1210 im practicing this piece too xD

[victor222444]

@ChickenBakedRice i can imagine my brother(he practices piano)trying to play this and going to the hospital because his fingers broke :P

[amcalmet]

aussi bien dans la parfaite exécution pianistique que dans la direction d'orchestre,Barenboim procède avec une louable économie de moyens qui laisse se développer nos propres sensations.

[612curtis]

omfg amazing! i like the flattened chord at the end altogether brilliant this would be amazing for a skeleton score because there is so much detail in the key changes and the the thirds, fifths and sixths flattened

Brilliant song!

[612curtis]

omfg amazing! 

[Musicownz1997]

you know, im working on this right now, and lemme tell u it's damn easier than beethoven's 6th sonata op 10 no 2.

[pianovirtuoso1000]

Awesome!

[tsallen10]

Brilliant. But can Schubert change oil? Nope. Keep dreamin' . Schubert only wishes he could drive a moped..

[karazh]

@tsallen10 xD

[SarahVictor99]

I love this song :D

[BeckyFlute123]

very lovely piece. i am not a piano person but i love it, nice job!

[3NUNS]

The problem with flats is that often they are either too small to fit a grand piano in or, on the other hand, it is often the case that it is too hard to get a garnd piano up the stairs to the flat or any other piano when it come to that！　Ｓｏ　ｌｉｆｅ　ｃａｎ　ｂｅ　ｆｌａｔ　ｗｈｅｎ　ｏｔｈｅｒｗｉｓｅ　ｙｏｕ　ｍｉｇｈｔ　ｂｅ　ａ　ｄａｉｌｙ　ｐｒａｃｔｉｓｉｎｇ　ｐｉａｎｉｓｔ　！

[looney1023]

weird! im playing this song with the public domain version of the sheet music and they printed all of the the 4 measures from the end to have e naturals! its really out of place and akward and i just cant believe that they misprinted six chords!

could sum1 please tell me if my music is right or not before i cross them out in ink?

[farindaell]

My music has them as flats too, and i can't really see how it could work with naturals, so i'm pretty sure you can cross them out :)

[pianoloveandgod]

i love this song, its so beautiful! =]

[superbemaison]

When was this recorded please?

[Pianoplayer002]

Paris, Mutualité, october 1977, according to my CD booklet

[dahlia05hotmail]

Excellent.

[Starbirdy9999]

Love the way Schubert had composed a flying-ish feel to the song. I also like how Baremboim played it.

[MagicDonDino]

Great! very cleanly performance!
