I know that Mozart was not a sailor, but in the section strating at 1:50, I feel like I'm on the deck of a ship...watching an unexpected storm rolling in over calm seas, foreshadowing an uncertain fate. In this performance, Lipatti makes me feel the water from rising swells...
Why do people have to say that only one emotion or even emotions that have names to us should be how a piece of music should be interpreted by the performer. There is beauty in deep anguish, there is just plain beauty, and then there is Mozart. I think we should just all try and go on the ride Mozart takes us on. There aren't enough words to convey Mozart and so I think there is no point in trying. This is such a beautiful, soul enhancing/taking piece of music it should be just as it is. It is why it is such posed. Let it be and let it flow.
I agree. As Mendelssohn put it perfectly: the emotions expressed by the music I love are not too indefinite to be put into words, but on the contrary, too definite.
You should hear his last public performance of this sonata knowing that he himself had only about 3 months to live. Tragic loss of one of the great pianists.
JD Agreed, And it is much more Dionysian than this one, oddly enough, considering he was dying at the time & could not finish the Chopin Waltzes, presumably from weakness. .
Very accurate, very beautiful. He was a great pianist and died too young. But is beauty what this sonata is about? Should it not create a sense of deep anguish and tragedy that rips your heart out?
FINALLY !! Legato in the left !! FINALLY !! Why does not every pianist in the universe instinctively understand this ??? This sonata is being ruined by so many
@@reflechant Steinway didn't even produce pianos during Mozart's life 1756-91! :P But there is nothing wrong to play it on a Bechstein (as I guess Lipatti used here)! Only historic interested musician's like Harnoncourt state that Mozart should be played on "historic instruments" ...
The idea here is that the legato or staccato written by Mozart wouldn't have the same duration or timbral effect as on a modern grand, and thoughtful adaptations must be made@@MusikPiratCH
Dinu Lipatti tocó las Partitas de Bach como nadie lo hizo. Aquí, bellísima sonata perfecta, perfecto pedal, perfecta mano izquierda. Qué tragedia haberlos perdido tan jóvenes a Lipatti y a Mozart!
This is the best recording of this sonata I have ever heared. This is really outstanding!
Mozart and Lipatti live forever in our hearts
Troppo grande per un mondo così piccolo 🙏❤️
even with technology from 66 years ago, the most incredible and moving performance of sonata no 8 in la minor.
It's 6ix9ine years ago now.
He has been the best. Nobody has played the Partitas of Bach like him. Terrible loss. He left us so young!
I agree his is the best rendition of Mozart’s Sonata 8.
I know that Mozart was not a sailor, but in the section strating at 1:50, I feel like I'm on the deck of a ship...watching an unexpected storm rolling in over calm seas, foreshadowing an uncertain fate. In this performance, Lipatti makes me feel the water from rising swells...
What a great musical soul he had. What a loss.

this man is out of range. We have never heard this kind of quality
From the same era, William Kapell. More recently, Ivan Moravec.
In terms of virtuosity, yes. But the recording quality is sadly poor compared to nowadays...
@@OlJackBurton Ma è comunque il migliore ❤️Grande Dinu
こんなに背骨に響くピアニストを私は他に知らない。ダイナミクスもテンポもほぼ作曲家の指定どおり。なのに、出てくる音楽は最高。
DINU LIPATTI IS GENIUS !!!!!!!!
Wow i love the slower tempo in the first movt
1. Allegro maestoso: 0:05
2. Andante cantabile con espressione: 4:13
3. Presto: 10:36
Such a nice, light touch!
Genial.
surely one of a kind ~
Păcat că timpul nu a mai avut răbdare!❤🌹
Beautiful performance! Thanks for sharing!
beautiful
In Lipattis Spiel dieser Mozart-Sonate steckt ein unheimlicher innerer Drang, die Frage lässt sich nicht abweisen: Wohin...?!
Freut mich - danke!
IMHO, the best recording of K. 310 (piano sonata no. 8 in a minor) by the great Dinu Lipatti (who died far too early)! :D
:D How FUNNY :D
*sigh*
grazie!!!!

Maravilhoso!
Very accurate, very beautiful. He was a great pianist and died too young.
But is beauty what this sonata is about? Should it not create a sense of deep anguish and tragedy that rips your heart out?
yes, it should !
I think so, because Mozart compose this sonata after his mother death
@Gilberto G - Not only following his mother’s death but with his father blaming him for his mother’s death.
No that is anguish
It’s about
13 minutes long. Give or take.
❤
As much as I adore Lipatti, and his wonderful versions of Mozart, I'll stay with Czifra on this one. Nevertheless a great rendition.
inoubliable Lipatti.
@mistral1975 Nothing to be add to your real sensible and sensitive comment.
Thanks for loving him as much as Dino has and will always deserve.
grazie
My liKe was the 310th one
7:14
reminds me of steve carrell in some pictures
And we're sure this ain't Liszt playing???
FINALLY !! Legato in the left !! FINALLY !!
Why does not every pianist in the universe instinctively understand this ???
This sonata is being ruined by so many
Then Mozart ruined music, because he played it staccato, as is in the score
To start with the fact that Mozart didn't use modern piano at all - he played clavichord, harpsichord and pianoforte, not steinways.
@@reflechant Steinway didn't even produce pianos during Mozart's life 1756-91! :P But there is nothing wrong to play it on a Bechstein (as I guess Lipatti used here)! Only historic interested musician's like Harnoncourt state that Mozart should be played on "historic instruments" ...
MusikPiratCH I also think its bechstein ...

plus détendu plus mélodieux qu'à Besançon...
mumu chat Oui , malheureusement .
Besançon on the other hand has an additional element! :D
mozart may be easier than beethoven but no less profound.
A good pianist,but I don´t like.
Jorge Liebermann Why ?
Jorge Liebermann you like thelonius monk?
Vai da un'altra parte allora. Qui, solo chi ama Dinu ❤️
