visit my webpage - http://www.joolsscott.co.uk Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 8 in A minor, K 310 (300d) (1778) is a sonata in three movements: 1. Allegro maestoso
2. Andante cantabile con espressione
3. Presto

A typical performance takes about 22 minutes.

The A minor sonata is the first of only two Mozart piano sonatas to have been composed in a minor key. Written around the time of the death of Mozart's mother, it is the darkest of his piano sonatas. The last movement in particular has an obsessive, haunted quality about it, heightened near the end by the interruption of the relentless drive to the conclusion by repeated and chilling quiet falling passages.

This video is inspired by Maria João Pires (born in Lisbon, Portugal, July 23, 1944).

  • Thank you for this video. There are noises at the background. Do you want me to tell them " sssssheeeeeee ". Thanks.

  • A lot of my videos have the same background noise because there's people talking and eating in the same room as me and I am there for their pleasure. Sometimes people are quiet and listen, but not always...

    Thanks for your kind comments, I do especially love playing this piece! (there are a few mistakes - but I hope it still shows) xx

  • Beautiful beautiful!! What relaxed hands and wrists. Very lyrical. You are a wonderful pianist.

  • thanks for your nice comment!

  • mine too! thank you x

  • Beautiful song. Beautifully played. Anyone know where I can get a simple, free download of this song? I don't care who's playing it.

  • thx

    

  • @SuperTruth77 Please, if there is nothing you can do to stop this... videotape it, for the sake of youtubes!

  • I face a horrible dilemma for my wedding this year. My mother (who hasn’t long to live) says the one thing that would make her happy would to be for my uncle to perform his ‘funny routine’, like he did for her wedding 50 years ago.

    This is a tawdry, degrading ‘blackface’ medley- like a low-rent Al Jolson wailing out of tune. I have loads of black/mixed race guests coming, & it’s going to be the most embarrassing moment of my life…

  • Simply wonderful, a joy to the ear, and people should talk less and listen more i feel.

  • Execellent play but the background noise makes it hard to concentrate might i suggest reposting it after you record it somewhere a little quieter you'll probably get more hits.

  • You are a great ARTIST, even with (and more with) that awful background noise :o)

  • .. the hazards of playing piano for people who can never truly appreciate it!! I've been in your place many times, but I used to find the background noise allowed me to 'forget' the audience were there (..that they mattered --harsh!!).. and really concentrate on connecting with the music. I think you've done a fab job, thanks for uploading!

  • can you give me the sheet of these?? i want to learn to play classical music instead of modern 1.
