This sonata is considered the easiest of the Beethoven sonatas. Beethoven actually did not publish this sonata at first but after two years, his brother Kasper secretly gave it to the publisher. I just love Paul's playing. I am just obsessed with his 'Follow the Score' videos because you really can follow the score while listening to the piece. Loved it! Keep it up, Paul! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
But my teachers used to tell me not to look for the audio on the Internet. I must try to figure the pieces myself... and express them by the way I think it should be... I'm so confused. P/S: I'm not a student anymore but still confused...
@@youtubeuser6668 They were trying to get you to think critically about the piece and develop your own unique voice. They didn't want you to mindlessly copy or try to recreate the masters' performances. However, we must often hear how other people interpret a piece to fully understand it, and develop our own unique interpretation. Maybe you like bits and pieces of different professionals' interpretations, and you've never heard 'this' part done like 'that' and you think it's extraordinary - perhaps you think it's perfectly in tune with the composer's intentions (and who's to say?) Which would be my case for listening to as many versions as possible - but not mindlessly - and not to mimic, just get inspiration from. And kindly "steal" the bits you most treasure.
Thank you so much. Im just Thai doctor playing piano (mainly easy/intermediate classical pieces) in my free time. This piece (actually 1st movement) is currently in my this year resolution. I love your interpretation and usually use your videos as standard reference. Wish u and your family safe from the COVID-19. Stay healthy.
When I was in middle school I rememebr spending weeks on this sonata... I was younger but didn't know that in those days I was at my peak in piano playing. Without even realizing I slowly abandoned the piano and focused on other things, but sometimes I stop and think about where would I be now if only I kept on practicing. Thanks for this, it reminds of beautiful days!
Unfortunately I suffer from PPLSD- post piano lessons stress disorder. As I read along to the music I could feel my ole teach snacking my offending clunker fingers with his directors baton saying no no yes. He died horribly in an unrelated oboe accident.
i had a friend in band class who i convinced to stick a trumpet to his arse and toot. since he was the class clown, he gladly obliged. it didn't work to well for a gaff, but the real kicker was when he instinctively went to play afterwards and puked all over his trumpet. i was never allowed to teach at that school again.
I'm also staying at home and practicing on Beethoven's Sonte Pathétique op13. I think it's best time for practicing piano. Thanks for your beautiful play^^
We all sin and fall short of the glory of God. Let it be known that every man is deservant of hell. But 2000 years ago God came in flesh as Jesus from Nazareth and lived a sinless life yet having all the temptations humans do. He was killed by his own people, the ones who claimed to believe in God but this had to be done because his death would become a sacrifice for all our sins. Now, whoever believes in Jesus will be saved. You must repent of your sins and be baptized and whoever comes through Jesus who is the messiah (or the Christ) of who's sacrifice was predicted milleniums ago, he who comes through him will come to God. But there is no other way to come to God but through him, because it is God who sacrificed himself for us as Jesus.

I appreciate the clarity of Paul's playing. With the score or a nicely synced overhead shot; one can really learn from his presentation.
Backstory is actually interesting, because I always thought, that Beethoven wrote this piece for students to learn basic Beethoven... :D
Very kind of you to help the piano student like this. Wonderful performance, as always, Paul!

Could you do le tombeau de couperin by Ravel one day! It would mean the world to me, especially the prelude!
Bravissimo
1st movement was one of the exam pieces I played for my grade 8.
