  • almost no one ups their tempo for the lyrical sections (B, C, B); most people play those sections slower. The only exception I've heard is Barenboim.

  • "non troppo" is an Italian definition meaning "not too much". In the case of this rondo, that direction prevents the performer from playing too fast (e.g. faster than 92 BPM). Anyone who knows this rondo well enough will think that playing it at a brisk tempo changes the character of the movement. And the lyric sections (B, C, B) should not be rushed at any time.

  • It is one of my favourite pieces of music of all time. That is all I have to say. Marvellous work.

  • Well do the words "non beanasshole" have any importance?

  • Better than Ashkenazy! More rubato, which I think is critical.

  • I've listened to so many interpretations of this movement...

    You play just as fast as Rudolf Serkin did when he was playing under the baton of George Szell. It's a tad fast for my taste; the words "non troppo" are too important.

  • just wonderful music, i could listen to it all day long
