  • @marimbaman89 I definitely agree with you. All the other versions I've found don't bring this music to life, because of how slow they play it. This speed makes me imagine a very lively and upbeat beethoven just having a blast improvising on the piano.

  • @ploofedoof and two brains to understand it.

  • this sounds like you need 6 fingers on each hand just to play it.

  • I LOVE this sonata played at this speed...makes it perhaps my favorite piece of music.

  • i used to play piano, then i took a arrow to the knee.

  • @HoboSuperstar depends on the version you have. it's around there though.

  • @zacbradley1 Moonlight sonata mvmt 3 isn't 30 pages.

  • Fantástica performance, uma interpretação magistral!!

  • @MozartK365 that's exactly how i feel! :) it's not only the tempo though IMO-it's the complete and utter control Gulda is showing here that is simply amazing.it's fast but not erratically so and i LOVE it!
