Mrs Lisitsa plays with such joy!!! It is not always you see classical musicians smiling while playing. So important is joy!!! Valentina is my great idol!! And Haydn is very good!!! Yet quite unknown for his piano music.
Amazing technical virtuosity allows this supremely talented pianist to explore the emotional nuances of this piece. There is power and great tenderness as her hands move across the keys. I'm guessing she simply set-up three digital cameras and played with no one else present, then edited the images to create this offering. My appreciation for Haydn keeps growing. I have his Erdody string quartets on the CD player in my car and never tire of listening to them.
I am 71 years old, and can remember when Haydn's piano sonatas were totally neglected, over-shadowed by Mozart and Beethoven. Nowadays, his sonatas get their well deserved performances.
o there ar e so so many composers which were forgotten and noone plays their works . Zhat should be done. Haydn indeed is a very well known composer. search for "unsung masterworks" or go channel " KuhlauDilfeng2 " There you will find a lot of unknown composers and their wonderful works never heard before. Why always Beethoven, Mozart , Haydn......?
Harry, I agree The old master Haydn is coming into a better light. However, to say he is getting his "deserved". I have to question that. Although his light happy music is valuable to me, I still think the richness and depth of musical material and its development are not equal to Mozart's. To compare him to Beethoven is not fair, like apples and oranges. No one compares to Beethoven!
@@mikekarren5010 An interesting viewpoint, though it appears to be based on a rather better understanding of the music of Mozart and Beethoven than that of Haydn whom I barely recognise from your comment above.
Haydn era preoccupato di avere sempre accanto a sé l'ispirazione quando componeva ,questa sonata è un esempio da studiare per i compositori apprendisti. Brava Valentina!!!!!!!!
You keep surprising - with taking us to different parts of the repertoire and giving us new insights into those areas. Your blend of both traditionally classical elements (evenness, lightness in touch, structure) with some of the enhancements that a concert grand piano can add to the score is wonderful to hear. It's nice to hear someone trying to play a harpsichord on a piano, or a fortepiano on a concert grand, but instead use creativity in deciding when the early style of playing and the enhanced piano range could provide more to the experience of hearing your performance. Thank you.
I love the joyful expression of your playing here, really captures Haydn’s humorous character. I am learning this piece and many parts of this interpretation are very inspiring. Thank you! And boy am I so in awe of the crisp, bright and light articulation on those scaler passages in the first and third movements.
An interesting comment, but I hear almost nothing ‘humorous’ (= intended to make us laugh) in this profound work; there are several parts I might label playfully ingenious, but that’s it. Your right, this is an impressive, very clean performance and technically amazing; my only quibble would be about not observing da capo markings.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 Humor is Haydn's specialty, I wouldn't doubt it if his intentions were derived of that. The music may not make you laugh literally, but noticing the many moments in the 3rd, where sudden great shifts in dynamic and short versus long gestures are quite theatrical, even the rhythmic syncopations, could be interpreted as 'humor', and 'playful' as you call it.
@@Fanchen I get your point completely. My concern though is that the humour card is massively over-played in Haydn, and often used as a substitute for proper analysis; what you describe in the example you gave is the sort of thing that happens in Beethoven all the time, but the difference is that it is never referred to as humorous.

Merveilleuse Valentina, une fois de plus vous apportez à la musique le talent qui ne peut que se conjuguer au féminin, toute la subtilité du doigté, de la sensibilité qui transfigure la musique en bonheur parfait. Merci Valentina.
I started playing piano since 1 and a half years, but my name is now in the top list amongst the BEST CHILD PIANIST IN THE WORLD, I would like to share my happiness with you as you are my inspiration, your reply or response to my comment will make my days ...thanks Aunty........
+ValentinaLisitsa ........ Oh my god ... I'm very very very very very very very very very hapyyyyyy with your response Aunty.....my whole family now shouted with happiness with your reply.....hope to see you soon ,, please let me know if I can see you and play along with you once in my childhood.....thanks Aunty regards from my daddy mummy and my elder sister amirthavarshini........
I just found an old Peters edition of these wonderful sonatas, and I wonder why Haydn sonatas aren't played more... And these interpretations are delightful!
I have the natural gift of playing by ear since the age of three, I wish sometimes I had been trained from an early age. What a wonderful gift that she has. I love to here music like this. I may have over three hundred sixty songs memorized, but I'll never be able to touch her. She is wonderful to listen to. So wonderful
The unexpected change from G major to E major at 3:05 is the same as Beethoven used (D to B major) in his Hammerklavier sonata 1st movement. Both times magic.
baldrbraa Well spotted. Beethoven studied a number of Haydn’s compositional techniques very carefully - key and tonal relationships, motivic development, building large-scale movements from small fragmentary motifs, and so forth - there is rather more of Haydn in Beethoven than sometimes he cared to admit. Additionally of course; the dip into E major in the E flat major 1st movement is a foreshadowing of the unprecedented (for 1794) switch to the E major of the 2nd movement.
The interpretation is wonderful. Valentina knows how to play Haydn in a nicely quick tempo. Many pianists play Haydn too slowly, so that Haydn sounds then too tiredly and dusty. (Die Interpretation ist großartig. Valentina versteht es, Haydn in einem schön schnellen Tempo zu spielen. Viele Pianisten spielen Haydn viel zu langsam, so dass Haydn dann zu müde und verstaubt klingt.)
I'm such a HUGE fan... EVEN when i hear a piece soo completely different I'm ALWAYS amazed and inspired by her interpretation and life filled playing... what a gem...!
amazing valentina , i m so happy to have met this great pianist , one of the most greatest artist in the world , thanks for everythink valentina , e éternelle ,
I'm so glad for this performance of Haydn! It made my day. :) I still fully remember your recital in Prague; it was one of my most beautiful and exciting experiences with classical music. It was literally unbelievable to see you play live. I hope you'll visit Czech someday again!
Brilliant. I hope Mme Lisitsa and other famous pianostars will want to use their popularity to make people discover also other unconventional repertoires (e.g. Rococo period) and even those composers (e.g. Hummel) now almost forgotten.
I actually had to stop and back the video up just prior to the 4:00 mark, because I was stunned that you took those descending thirds in the recap with both hands. A minor thing really, but it threw me coming from a pianist with your spectacular technique.
Breathtaking. Brava Valentina. I'm sure Mr. Hayden would be thrilled with this performance. Thanks again. Saw you in Munich for the Rachs a few years back. Fantastic experience in the Gasteit there. I'll make it to another concert sometime soon, God willing. Love for you to come to Ireland. someday.
Dr Haydn wrote this sonata for a very fine female pianist whilst in England (1794), her name was Therese Janson-Bartolozzi; it is thus somewhat appropriate to hear such a fine performance by a modern day pianist of Valentina’s prowess.
he deserves a bigger place in the music world... just his over 100 symphonies alone... and the sonata allegro form alone owe him a BIG amount of debt... BUT the place where I LOVE him the MOST... is his LARGE scale Masses... especially The Lord Nelson...
@@Highinsight7 The Missa in angustiis often known as the Nelson Mass* (or Nelsonmesse in German) is arguably Haydn’s greatest single work, and was thus nominated by one of the greatest Haydn scholars of all time, HC Robbins Landon in his enormous five volume biography of the composer. * Note the correct nickname of the mass - not sure where you’ve got the ‘Lord’ from.
your piano playing is sensitive and powerful at once! your notes are very slender and slightly hear perfect silence between two notes when you play so you leave room to breathe! Congratulations Dear Valentina! JC
My favourite performance of this piece and so delightfully feminine and expressive as well as sexy. Remember this sonata was dedicated to a woman and being a composer of 19 piano sonatas myself it's likely. He had some kind of divine inspiration to describe an aspect of shared experience. It's not absolute music in my opinion but about that woman & how he feels about her and above it was meant to be played by her as well as Schumann's Frauenliebe was meant to be sung by a woman and this performance embodies that conveyance of sexuality and kind of autoerotic intensity within it. There is a moment in Beethoven's für Elise where one touches one's own hands to play it.
Wonderful Valentina! Truly wonderful. Your interpretations are always my favorite. Please excuse me if there already is such a video, but I was wondering if you could do Fantasie Impromptu by Chopin. I thank you endlessly, Miss Lisitsa, I once considered classical music very boring and uninteresting. But after I watched some of your performances (mainly Moonlight Sonata and Rach 3 solo)I changed my mind. I'm learning to play the piano now, and my ultimate goal is to one day be able to play the Rach 3. I have a long way to go, but you always inspire me. When are you coming to Düsseldorf again? Witnessing your performance live would really be a dream come true!
I was rather rude to you on another post regarding a certain piece that you played. I take that back. I think you're an amazing pianist and you play beautifully. I think an apology is in order to you - I'm sorry if I offended you. Sometimes my mouth acts before my brain. You and Olga Schepps are my two favourite pianists and whenever I want to see a piece played, I'd always check any performances by you two first haha. Stay safe, keep playing and I hope you can forgive me for my rude intrusion. X
Haydn wrote this E flat sonata sonata (Hob. XVI:52) whilst in London in 1794; Beethoven played through his three sonatas Opus 2 for Haydn in Vienna on his return from England in 1795, and then published them in 1796.
Ah! I fell in love with this piece in college in North Carolina at UNC Greensboro where I used it for junior juries. Although let's just say I played it a "little" less spectacularly than you! I was still figuring out how to practice!! 😁 What a joy to hear your exuberant rendition.
Gah Thank you Valentina for respond! And you're welcome. Yes it is SO difficult. As pianist myself I'm still trying to master those nuances. But like you said, once mastered, it's so fun which is why you're probably smiling. :)
Thanks it's perfect! Если вы сможете приезжайте в Украину ... Пожалуйста.. Мне и не только мне очень жаль, что сложилась такая неприятная ситуация( Thanks for everything)
This is like the ultimate performance. A very strong, but charming interpretation. And I love your hands, they move like ballerina's legs. Kisses, muy dear.:-) :-)
Hello Valentina, this is my first and only request. Have you considered recording Liszt's " benediction de dieu dans la solitude"? It seems like it would be right up your alley! :)

The best touch of this sonata I ever heard
Haydn, one of my favorites. (Janne Seppanen it's widely known and played all the time, forever). This piece is so stunningly modern!
What a wonderful gift ! And just today ! It's my birthday, thank you Valentina.

Your face portrays the absolute joy you feel when playing the piano. You are as usual, your brilliant self.

Amazing, as always!! I hope to see the ballade no.4 as soon as possible!! You are fabolous especially in the repertoire not expected from you!
ballade no 4??? by Chopin??? WHEN DID THAT HAPPENED??? oh I'm dying to listen to this!!!!
The camera is vibrating when she plays so hard.
You have such a vast number of piano literature under your belt. Have you done any 20th century composers? If not I humbly request : )

I like how this sonata can be found scattered around the first Beethoven piano sonatas.
Haydn wrote this E flat sonata sonata (Hob. XVI:52) whilst in London in 1794; Beethoven played through his three sonatas Opus 2 for Haydn in Vienna on his return from England in 1795, and then published them in 1796.

favorite work from Haydn by my favorite pianist, who could ask for more?

Yes! Though in adolescence I was wallowing in a bit too much teen angst to fully appreciate such qualities 😂
