Beautiful piece. At first glance, the simplicity of Mozart makes it look easy to play. But when one actually plays it, then it's a totally different story. So difficult imo.
This piece is just a masterpiece. The slow movement is Mozart at his most romantic...I don't know if it was inspired by his wife, or her sister that he was in love with. It's just the most sublime thing I've ever heard
Indeed most difficult to play. I never did this piece the slightest bit of justice. That's why I didn't like to play these pieces as a piano student decades ago. I have now come to play short pieces by Mozart along with short pieces by Chopin, Schumann and others.
Britta Rothert it”s certainly not the hardest, sonatas like the one in C minor or the sonata k310 are, in my opinion, more mature and harder. This one is obviously beautiful and a great step in the life of a pianist, but I think there are way harder Mozart’s works.
I am very glad I could listen to the music and see the notes and play the piece that Mozart has composed. I feel connected to him and his feelings whenever I listen or play his compositions.

mozart è reputato uno dei massimi esponenti della musica classica perché elaborava molto bene le proprie opere e si dedicava a tutti gli stili di musica
Mandrell Twitty Bach was a great composer, but I find much of his music dry and academic. Mozart, Beethoven and the Romantic composers are much more varied emotionally, and more immediately accessible to the listener.
Timothy Thorne You got that last part right, more immediately accessible to the listener for Mozart & Beethoven. But on the other side of older music, Bach is actually very emotionally varied, however he is just more difficult to understand on a emotional level of being just as easily accessible as Mozart’s & Beethoven’s music is. But once you deeply become involved in Bach, you start to see that actually Bach has such a surprisingly emotional level that it often surpasses even such a composer like Mozart. While suggesting to the modern age popularity of music, I’d say Mozart is more like pop music (outgoing & emotionally easy to understand). While Beethoven is more like Rock & Roll or Heavy Rock music (less melodic, but more creative in harmonies that rely more towards the bass section, a bit more difficult to understand emotionally). And Bach on the other hand is more like a middle eastern type music & strictly native to it’s tradition of old fashioned (emotionally understood well only if you learn the native cultural language of his strict traditions of middle eastern morality & regulations. Which is more harmonically advanced than that of it’s contemporaries, and only structurally melodic just as the inner working gears of a well engineered mechanical clock). In Bach, every single tick of the clock has a meaning in it, rather than a full bar of music which is easily accessible in one hearing to stir emotions) So now can you imagine what a Bach full bar of music will do? It will stir multiple emotions at once, like I said only if you learn that old school middle eastern language well enough first.
@@timothythorne9464 Bach can give emotions too. Check out Christmas Oratorio, Chaconne, Dorian Toccata and Fugue, Passacaglia and Fugue In C Minor, Prelude and Fugue In F Minor WTC 1, Mass In B Minor and Air in G String. Bach>Every single romantic composer combined.
ssskkkiiibbbaaa there's a lot of really inspired and moving music by Bach. The Air on the G String, Arioso, Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, Little and Great Fugues for organ, Well Tempered Clavier, Two part inventions for piano, Brandenburg Concerti, etc. But...Bach was like a set of bad brakes--he didn't know when to stop! He wrote too much music and most of it is BORING!
Not to take anything away from him but so many great things came from Europe at his time. Sometimes I wish I had lived then. Not as some poor peasant of course.
I remeber seeing the sheet music for this when my teacher handed it to me thinking "no problem, much less painful than all the romantic pieces, at least reading wise"... Dear god, yes it was easy to read, but holy fuck is it a tongue twister!
World Difference Yeah but the left hand's trill and the right hand is extremely hard and I cannot do it very well.....The third movement is very very very hard TT
"Perfect" doesn't exist in music! :D I agree Mitsuko Uchida is a "Mozart specialist"! However I prefer two other pianists with this sonata: Best IMHO is Krystian Zimerman 1978 recording by DGG (however Zimerman withdrew this recording)! *too sad* Christoph Eschenbach recorded all Mozart piano sonatas (for me "standard")! :D
I'm playing this sonata on a recital and maybe Steinway Malaysia piano competition. I MUST MEMORIZE THE WHOLE SONATA AND IT IS 18 PAGES LONG. Now I have only memorized the 1st and 3rd movement. The 2nd movement is quite hard to memorize.
I know you probably would have gone through the above competitions. Let me share my personal experience with you. What I do when I want to memorize a piece easily I play the whole piece over and over again without any deliberate attempt to memorize. As soon as my fingers get used to the notes I then very easily start memorizing the piece by breaking it into sections - a page daily works for me - you can use what works for you.
Klay Von Schwarzenberg There is only one God-Man- the Lord Jesus Christ! Mozart was a human gifted by God! PS Check out backtobasicsradio.com- excellent Christian teaching!
It is perfomed by Mitsuko Uchida! There is an arrow near the title, when clicked there is more info, try it. Maybe more wedge than arrow (not that good myself yet with computers). Anyway this is first rate playing and of course a master piece by Mozart.
I don't think there is such a thing as a singular "hardest composer". His music is very difficult in a specific way though. It's very stringent in it's voicing and challenging in finger motility. It's not that it's challenging more or less than a Chopin Etude or a Rachmaninoff sonata are, but in a different way than them.
I don't think that 'hardest composer' is the way to describe him, or any other composer. There are 2 types of 'difficulties': one is the technical difficulties, like the playing of notes, for example, fast running passages. Mozart has a lot of scales in his works, thus giving you this decision. The other type of difficulty is the difficulty in the 'emotions' of the music. It's hard to explain, but i'll try: The Baroque Era Composers, like Bach, and Classical Era Composers, like Mozart, aim for their phrase and works to be 'clear', hence, not a lot of pedal in their works. Their works are more 'straightforward' (obviously excluding the contrapuntal features of Bach's works). On the other hand, composers in the Romantic Era, like Chopin, have long phrases that need emotion to be put in, and thus a lot of pedal. For example, his Nocturnes, which are short compositions of a romantic nature, are needed to be put in a lot of expression. Thus, if you state Mozart's level of 'difficulty' for this piece as hard, you would be talking about the works' fingerings being hard. Don't get confused between these two types of difficulties!
jakmere this is mozart so you don’t need to be easy on the fortissimo it is supposed to be strong like he played it but only because it is mozart... the fortissimo is not the same in all the pianists... for exemple, for bach you have to be easy on the fortissimo or in chopin too but for mozart as much as Haydn you have to stress the fortissimo, it’s classical and it’s a must to improve the quality of the piece...
Bot 1 yeah you’re right too , i’ve been studying beethoven’s music lately, and the fortissimo is very important in his pieces. For example, we all know the Pathetique Sonata 1st movement : the fortissimo is a must
If you want the 2nd movement to be slow, just use the playback speed option on TH-cam and adjust the speed of the music as you like :) But personally, I like the music speed to be normal.
The first movement is a bit weird. Measure 38 adds a 2 measure coda that is completely unexpected and uses it for the majority of the development. Then we get whatever that is in measures 56 and 57. He doesn't bring back the A theme until right at the end, which is also unusual for Mozart. If it wasn't for the rest, I'd not believe that it's a piano sonata by Mozart.

Me too :)
That right!!!!*^^*

11:31 the transition from this B minor episode back to the rondo theme is sooooooo well crafted
I don't always love Mozart's solo piano works but when he's good, he's amazing. This piece is a delight from beginning to end.
The second movement its so beatiful
Especially the last bit from 8:30 on
12:33 the theme of Mozarts 21st piano concerto K.467 II movement andante appears.

Mozart is a genius. If this was composed on a bad day, imagine what he could do on a good day!
I think most of his music was composed on a bad day
He died so young too, imagine he had a modern lifespan; what he accomplished in such a short time is mind boggling...
Aria you are so right but the angels from above have a short lifespan except for me of course
your right I agree with you.

One of my favorite pieces. AND interpretation. This is stupendous.

Mozart has three hands. two for the piano and one for writing.
This is the best interpretation by far. Bravo, Mitsuko!
So delicate.... Passionate..... Reminds me of swaying palm trees. I'm talking about the 2nd movement.
6:50 to 9 is divine...and deep music making....😊👌
An outstanding piano playing by a true musician.
12:43 that chromatic scale 😍 love it and love this Sonata
2nd movement is very Beautiful.
This is extremely amazing, extremely. Omg.....

When does this best supposedly drop?
mozart packs a mean punch. in my opinion the composer whose pieces have the highest level of difficulty
I don't think there is such a thing as a singular "hardest composer". His music is very difficult in a specific way though. It's very stringent in it's voicing and challenging in finger motility. It's not that it's challenging more or less than a Chopin Etude or a Rachmaninoff sonata are, but in a different way than them.
What about Liszt? Objectively, his pieces are much more difficult. Maybe not the MOST difficult, but more so than Beethoven's, Mozart, or Bach.
The difficulty is added too by the efficiency of the writing. Miss out one note and it falls apart - try it if you don't believe it.
I don't think that 'hardest composer' is the way to describe him, or any other composer. There are 2 types of 'difficulties': one is the technical difficulties, like the playing of notes, for example, fast running passages.

Thus, if you state Mozart's level of 'difficulty' for this piece as hard, you would be talking about the works' fingerings being hard. Don't get confused between these two types of difficulties!
the only reason that is difficult is that it has no emotion and is absolutely boring to play. not like bach or schoenberg
