It's a battle between the composer (ensemble) and the piano. The composer knows what he wants. The piano first imitates, then beats and finally mocks the idea. By the end, the ensemble has no option but to admit defeat. This is one of the bset pieces of music I have ever heard
Try to listen to it completely (second movement is one of most famous Mozart moves, If we consider this movement as "conflict" as you say, second would be an "affair" between piano and orchestra) , Valentina Lisitsa's 2012 concert in Germany is a good one. This is one of Mozart works that I am in love with.
Ali Babourain thank you Ali. The second movement is also brilliant. I think this one speaks to me as it’s so different from the typical patron pleasing sounds of the era. I’m no expert, I just like what I hear. May you do too
I'm no expert neither, But when I started to listening to classical music 2 years ago, I found out that I shouldn't waste my ear to anything cheaper because we only live once. The emotion and genius behind these notes (without words!) gives you states of mind that is unique and unbelievable. These geniuses created their compositions scientific which is skies above what we hear today.
The little repeating trill motif that mozart plays with is so good. The way he uses both major and minor key variations of it. Closing the virtuoso piano section with what is completely bombastic, extreme version of the motif is a piece of insane genius.
This graphical score helped me a lot recently! I've been doing a Piano Concerto myself in the 18th century style so here I can actually see how the Piano is used and how the orchestration follows it. Thanks for animating this devine Piano Concerto!
This is seriously so insane. I can't believe how good it is. Mozart was an alien. And @smalin as usual your animation brings greater understanding and appreciation.
I think this is the best of your visualisations so far. The colours blend harmoniously while remaining distinct. The different forms for woodwinds, brass, strings and piano highlight the instrument families in a subtle way.
un des plus beaux mouvements de concertos de Mozart , le plus beaux des mouvements rapides à ma connaissance, mais tout Bach, ses concertos...sont largement aussi beaux, même davantage.
I love watching these... it’s so inspiring to view this from a perspective that only naively and innocently understands music. There’s no way a totally sane person can come up with music this complex and original.. the notation is so incredible.. it almost looks like someone copying and pasting midi notation but then there’s so much unpredictability in the patterns.. it makes me wonder how much rational thinking is involved when coming up with so many sequences, because for me, my best musical moments come from improvising and working towards sequences that come from that... and it’s easy to create so much amazing music now.. and something this complex was made hundreds of years ago. blows my mind.
I'm a huge Bach fan .. but I must say Mozart's music is sooooooo magical ... what a DAMN great composer ... I don't think you can find more perfect and well balanced music as the piano concertos from Mozart ...
PetStuBa Agreed...A friend ,who is an Astrologer, says this is Aquarius , at it's very best. Don't know about that, but Herr Mozart gives me thrills and chills too. I love his LACRIMOSA.

That's 29th January ,not 7 Feb...found it as 7th ..
This piece is why Mozart was the first Romantic musician. This was created out of pure passion, and for a small subscription group, and I think the most virtuosic of all his pieces.
@@brianr.3085 I don't know. It's still in the "working on it" stage. I thought I'd be done by now, but I'm not. There's nothing you can do to find out more until I post it.
Sir - I have probably spend more time listening to this piece than anything else. I didn't think anything could make it more enjoyable, but you have succeeded. Many thanks
I can't thank you enough for this. I think this and the 24th (even greater) are the two most profound piano concertos ever written. Sometimes the deepest utterances sound deceptively simple on the surface...
Mozart's dad was coming after a long time from seeing him, to come see him in Vienna , and they performed a concert for his father. Mozart wrote this piece in his father's honor. Can any dad be more proud of having a piece like this written in his own honor?
Melcome Pay Leopold Mozart was the type of impossible to please stage dad. He had a very strange relationship with young Wolfgang. At times very positive, but at times very tense, depending on Mozart’s level of success.
I almost see paralells between Mozart and Michael Jackson. Super talented kids, the younger of which is even more talented, they recognize it, both have overbearing fathers that try to control their success and the child grows up with a very strange personality but pleases so many people (fans) as it were and die young.
Boris Van Druff Thank you ...after this wonderful piece, I'm going to the requiem. Lacrimosa. musical paradise! By the way ,are you aware of the little 6 of 7 year old Russian boy, whose name I think is something like Elisi Mysin.. He is on U-TUBE tube (in a competition,).And can ,and does, play like an adult. He is truly amazing, hisfeet cannot even reach the pedals, it he is in total control..and plays Bach with full orchestra.Its under ASTANA PIANO PASSION.Apologies for the typing errors.
Beethoven's Cadenza, man. The way his improvisational style flows so naturally. It's a buttery romantic kiss onto this masterpiece, especially the arpeggiated Bb minor transposition, ugh, it makes me ache as a human.
This is the best performance of this piece ever. Im not kidding, nothing on Spotify gets close to this neither on acuteness of tempo or on quality of sound.
I was blown away by the candenza, especially because at first I thought Mozart himself composed the candenza and it was sounding very romantic...then I realised that it was Beethoven-composed (which made much more sense). It's funny the kind of musical shift that happens between the mozart part and the beethoven part.
Mozart's cadenza - if he wrote one - has not survived, but it has become customary to perform Beethoven's cadenza in most performances. However, historically informed performers like Robert Levin will often improvise their own cadenzas in the style of Mozart and his contemporaries. There are a number of such recordings on TH-cam of this sort.
Very wonderful. I am sending some of your animations to my young friend -23- who has cancer and is at home and on the computer most of the time because of side effects from chemo therapy. May he get inspired. Both of his parents are musicians; this might make him understand.
Visualizing the music in this way just shows his genius. People downplay his talent because the music sounds so pure. Einstein said that Mozart plucked his music from the heavens, already written.
I keep coming back to this, i think it is among your best visualizations! The instruments are displayed so clearly and the colors are chosen very fittingly in my opinion. A great piece of work!
Bravo and thank you, sir! As it is with all your graphical music score videos, superbly done! I thought there was already software that would create these (there should be), until I read your description of how much work is required to create each piece. Just the synchronization alone, every note...I can only imagine. To anyone curious how these are done, read the musanim link in the description.
BTW, I don't have to synchronize every note, because the music is already self-synchronized (e.g. all the notes in a chord happen at the same time). I only have to synchronize the "rhythmic skeleton" of the piece (still takes works, but not as much if it were every note).
smalin Thanks for the clarification. I might have gone one superlative too far. :) However, you still have to "adjust the score" and proofread to ensure every note matched. My background is more in software than music. I would hope you're able to copy and paste restatements or repetitions to save some labor and time.
Dear Sir, I wanted to thank you for the time you put into these videos. You've taught me to appreciate and understand music in a uniquely captivating way. And I haven't even paid you a cent! I too hope to achieve the same thing in my own field. Thank you. Just thank you, sir. All the best
you are totally incorrect and WAY off.....first of all symphonies, concertos, sonatas, quartetes, quintets, and masses are NOT songs. a SONG is a specific type of composition....while a great majority of his works are in major keys, almost 30 of them (including the large scale works like the masses, requiem, symphonies and concertos are in minor keys. dont belive me, look up his complete list of compositions and count them yourself
Doug19752533 30/600 seems like a small amount still not gonna lie. the vast majority of mozarts compositions were in major keys, this is well known. whilst it is still true that lots of his major compositions are in minor keys, i think it is a fair statement to say that mozart explored mostly major keys.
Palmitic Acid exactly. He has too many happy pieces which reflected his life at that time from childhood.his darker days and minor works to reflect it were but few cause he died young. I prefer his minor works because they are more realistic. His major works r just too happy for me. Don't mean to sound mean, just being real . ):
They really nailed Mozart with that comment. How could you change any of this? I saw in a documentary that he would often improvise during concerts and change the actual "studio" version (or original) nearly every time he played something. They based it on margin notes of his in the scores. Like the Grateful Dead live I guess. They said he would change like half the composition or stretch it out for much longer than it originally was written.
@@ElevenDollarCheese I can displace many notes in this concerto and the work would play out just fine. Enough with this ridiculous nonsense. Of course, if it's significantly displaced, the structure would fall, but you could say that with even the most mediocre pile of junk.
I really like what you've done with some of my favorite classical music. I just wish my Dad was still here to see this. He would of loved it as much as I do. Thank you.
Arguably the most perfect piece of music ever written. It's just an extreme battle between piano and orchestra that pushes what that instrument is capable of to its absolute limit. Piano just annihilates the orchestra with pure talent.
this version is technically in c# minor and the only one like it on youtube. I kinda like it more than D minor and if ever I had the chance to play it I'd rather it be in C# !
Muchas veces vuelvo a ver éstos videos, me gusta ver el color que se asigna a las notas y como van surgiendo. Tienen un poder hipnótico, además la música es la que me gusta por encima de todas. Nada tiene la belleza que tiene la música clásica.
When I played by ear as a kid I used to visualize music in a similar way to this. I lost that as I got older. I can still remember what certain songs looked like though.
Call me a Gloomy Guss that loves the minor keys, but SERIOUSLY: this amazing proto-Romantic chunk of PURE GENIUS from Mozart, gives the the chills every time, from the first amazing line of sublime music... and i must say that whoever played this certainly enables this side of the piece to shine through brilliantly!! PLEASE: someone tell me just who the pianist is.
Stephen, this is gorgeous -- shows visually just how *much* is going on measure by measure -- Mozart's genius for orchestration. If it does get into license trouble, would be great to do this same movement of another performance with exactly the same choices regarding animation.
@@prager5046 It is at the height of beauty and frankly, flawlessness. One might also argue that it's the single most important piano concerto ever written.
@@the_great_phoenix231 oh of course! No doubt! I think tho that the importance and brilliance of this piece cannot be understated. It cant be everyone's cup of tea but for me, it's on every level of artistic mastery. Especially given the time it was written. A game changer.
This score is an illusion! After the whole first movement of this concerto I saw all the words in the comments moving!! Anyway, this music is fantastic!!!
@@trungmaximlowqualitygaming9427 ….not this piece …but for example the second movement of Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto (K.622) has an incredible sense of longing…but in general, his music is so perfect, that it sometimes gets me emotional….
"Musica est exercitium arithmeticae occultum nescientis se numerare animi." "Music is a hidden arithmetic exercise of the soul, which does not know that it is counting." - Gottfried Leibniz in a letter to Christian Goldbach
Masterful animated score (? not sure what to call it, it is so unusual). Every note, every nuance is displayed without going overboard -- while visually it is also clear which instruments and notes are being played. Plus it is a wonderful recording of the concerto as well. Bravo!
I currently call them "animated graphical scores." They aren't as "animated" as the word might suggest, but there is some motion. I use the word "graphical" to distinguish them from conventional scores, which are more symbolic (that is, they contain symbols with meanings that must be learned).
TAO Maybe , just maybe, rather like young Alma Deutscher ..now I3, Pianist, violinist and composer...? She is being called the " the new Mozart" Early days yet of course.
Wow! FEEL that emotion...for me,though I watch the animation, and find it interesting,. It's what the MUSIC ,does to my emotions !!!!! Oh God, thank you for great ,great, music.
That looks really good. and may help to better understand the music. I can imagine that these visualizations are also well suited for music lessons and ear training. Thank you for your great work. More than just pretty pictures and shapes. Mario
I would listen to Bach on a much deeper level. The man did work hard to produce his music, but the soul is deeply embedded in the music, regardless. There is purity and beauty in so many of his works.
It starts so deceptively simple. Later on it is full of notes and still clear as glass throughout. Reminds me a bit of Beethovens Pastorale in that respect. Beethoven could regularly overdo it but in the 6th he had a similar clarity in his purpose. Only the truly great composers seem to be able to do that with such appearant ease..

It's like we are looking at Mozart's mind while he was walking one afternoon composing this in his head
I wasn't even paying attention when i accidentally this video. I'm glad I did.
Must have listened to this 20 times, and I'm still amazed by the 3 and a half minute finale.
When I played by ear as a kid I used to visualize music in a similar way to this. I lost that as I got older. I can still remember what certain songs looked like though.
The best piano concerto ever!
Call me a Gloomy Guss that loves the minor keys, but SERIOUSLY: this amazing proto-Romantic chunk of PURE GENIUS from Mozart, gives the the chills every time, from the first amazing line of sublime music... and i must say that whoever played this certainly enables this side of the piece to shine through brilliantly!! PLEASE: someone tell me just who the pianist is.
altareggo You're not at all a" gloomy Gus" This is a great piece of Herr Mozart!
Wow. Such a beautiful piece, almost reduced to tears. I thought rock had me but wow, this has changed my mind.
Dazzling, isn't it? Like a rollercoaster.
Finally! My favorite Mozart's piece! Been waiting for it, many thanks.
This version of this masterpiece is just... Terrifying and Wonderfull.
P.D: Nice work man. Keep this growing!
Stephen, this is gorgeous -- shows visually just how *much* is going on measure by measure -- Mozart's genius for orchestration. If it does get into license trouble, would be great to do this same movement of another performance with exactly the same choices regarding animation.
Mozart is the most gifted human being ever lived...few really know why...
Because he was
I tend to say only topped by Bach.
lol
Porque era un Dios!
interesting question ; why ? do you have an answer or at lest a part of it ?
best interpretation of this masterpiece I have heard
I often wonder if this is the best music ever written
you don't have to wonder --yes, it is.
@@prager5046 It is at the height of beauty and frankly, flawlessness. One might also argue that it's the single most important piano concerto ever written.
@@giustinoscalise3177 one of the best (you cant really say what is the best because there is something known as point of view :P)
@@the_great_phoenix231 oh of course! No doubt! I think tho that the importance and brilliance of this piece cannot be understated. It cant be everyone's cup of tea but for me, it's on every level of artistic mastery. Especially given the time it was written. A game changer.
No. Bach is the best.
This score is an illusion! After the whole first movement of this concerto I saw all the words in the comments moving!! Anyway, this music is fantastic!!!
See "motion aftereffect" in Wikipedia.
I wish I could upvote this every time I have listened to this and followed along with the animation.

smalin smooth
Mozart composed the only music that has brought this grown man to tears….
Oh i never thought that this piece was that sad for you. Incredible, mozart.
@@trungmaximlowqualitygaming9427 ….not this piece …but for example the second movement of Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto (K.622) has an incredible sense of longing…but in general, his music is so perfect, that it sometimes gets me emotional….
@@hertzair1186 oh, ok
Also i just listen to a song that brought me 100% emotionlessness
It's nightmare-ish
Bachs chaconne is pretty emotional, it was written shortly after his wifes death
Brahms has gotten me, specifically Piano Quartet in C minor, opus 60, 3rd mvt
Mozart's genius at its zenith!
That was fabulous. Watching and listening to music at the same time is so inspiring and eye opening! Thank you!

Thank you, how intuitive.....I like A E.Housemans state ment, that poetry, like music, should be understood via our emotions.
Wow! Those basses gave me life!! I would've loved to watch this performance live
Love the Beethoven cadenza at 10:34
Underrated comment
Masterful animated score (? not sure what to call it, it is so unusual). Every note, every nuance is displayed without going overboard -- while visually it is also clear which instruments and notes are being played. Plus it is a wonderful recording of the concerto as well. Bravo!
I currently call them "animated graphical scores." They aren't as "animated" as the word might suggest, but there is some motion. I use the word "graphical" to distinguish them from conventional scores, which are more symbolic (that is, they contain symbols with meanings that must be learned).
Genius on genius. Just remarkable!
One could almost feel sympathy for the CURSOR (?) that was moving amongst the notes! Such complex movements. Hope to see MUCH MORE!
I really think that Mozart thought, saw, heard and created in his mind with a similar visualization of this simulation.
TAO Maybe , just maybe, rather like young Alma Deutscher ..now I3, Pianist, violinist and composer...? She is being called the " the new Mozart" Early days yet of course.
The animation on this is spectacular! Thank you for making such an amazing video.
You're welcome!
Wonderful way to engage kids in music. I entertained an unentertainable kid for 20 minutes with " the guys running down the stairs" 😅
Unbelievably beautiful, it conjures movies in my head
Wow! FEEL that emotion...for me,though I watch the animation, and find it interesting,. It's what the MUSIC ,does to my emotions !!!!! Oh God, thank you for great ,great, music.
That looks really good. and may help to better understand the music. I can imagine that these visualizations are also well suited for music lessons and ear training.
Thank you for your great work. More than just pretty pictures and shapes. Mario
All good things in music eventually lead to Mozart.
And Bach.
You saved yourself with "And Bach." ;)
Gabriel Hajas What do you see when you hear Beethoven?
I would listen to Bach on a much deeper level. The man did work hard to produce his music, but the soul is deeply embedded in the music, regardless. There is purity and beauty in so many of his works.
Max Bodewes I see anger and some kind of justice.
The first time I heard this piece was actually in Amadeus. Ever since then I've been hooked. Fabulous work
VERY nice job!
I have no words for this beautiful song. ^w^
Your channel is absolutely fantastic! From a french pianist!

This is marvelous. Thank you Smalin for your contribution to music!
Virtuosity is such a feeble word when it comes to Mozart.
Many thanks for the animation, it really adds depth to my experience of the work.
I like this piece better in c# than in d.
It starts so deceptively simple. Later on it is full of notes and still clear as glass throughout. Reminds me a bit of Beethovens Pastorale in that respect. Beethoven could regularly overdo it but in the 6th he had a similar clarity in his purpose. Only the truly great composers seem to be able to do that with such appearant ease..
