mozpiano2--I find this sonata to be mysterious, beautiful, philosophical...but most of all, mysterious. it is one of the most abstract sonatas he wrote imo (next to op.101). I'm interested to know what makes this your particular favorite, and how you conceive of it, if you would like to share. :)

@pyroprince78 LOL sorry for the very late reply, just noticed this comment!

This sonata was for a while my favourite piano sonata, but only for the fact that I didn't know all of the sonatas at the time. I find this piece to be incredibly spiritual, although to me the opus 109 and 110 sonatas are more spiritual (now that I know them). This piece is also a torrent of emotions, while generally sad throughout, deepens and recedes in intensity. Even the 2nd movt to me is sad.

very nice interpretation . i love the way he plays the chords on 0.50 and similar . the room resounds a little, and it's a pure delight .

So,, is this on a cd of some kind?

A little reverb on this recording which gives the performance ambience and atmosphere. Some recordings are very dry and sound they have been recorded in someone's lounge. This is a pleasure to listen to however

gilels does a much better job with this piece in my opinion.
