I am very impressed by Mr Goode's series of these sonatas. Clear, simple and articulate. I learned the sonatas via the Kempff series but now I place Richard alongside Backhaus and Barenboim as my personal favorites. Surprisingly good MP4 sound on TH-cam.
Non capisco perchè un pianista così, sia poco conosciuto e rappresentativo per la musica Beethoveniana....io lo trovo un ottimo interprete, molto più di altri famosi pianisti!!
I like his approach - it's very Gulda-like, straightforward without Barenboim's exaggerations. Gulda for me is still the gold standard here but this is a very satisfying performance musically and technically.
Thankyou for making this available . So worth owning and hearing everything this man has to say in Beethoven ! This man is it and has it .I havent heard Levin in Beethoven but I would expect he same emotional subtlety and intelligence . Goode in the slow movement made me jump . I felt as if I had never heard the music before and wow I believe him ! I had Schnabel thrown at me and all my generation and after i learned a few pianistic niceties I was always excited by his rhtmic verve , electricity never the dull intellectual one would think when one reads about his perfect style in Beethoven . But I've heard greater and more intellihent Beethoven from everyone . Goode ,Fazil Say , Lupu, Sokolov ,Uchida and many many less famous have shown us glorious things ! That teacher at Harvard whose name escaped me is unforgettable even Arrau i s steel gold, Haebler's rightness in Mozart leaves me wishing she had given us more Beethoven her recordings with Szeryng show why Brendel advocated for her being included in Phillips compendium . Mozart is more difficult than Liszt and hear any pianist born before 1930 in Mozart and you'll never want to listen to any of them agaun except for Horszowsky and Lili Kraus (I was so surprised to hear how tastefully she can play this so easily distorted music .
Merlin Mijdus It is certainly not clear to me that this sonata was '...inspired by Mozart's 25th symphony (first movement)'. Statements such as this are meaningless without the evidence laid out - in fact an impossible task because it wasn’t. The words ‘inspiration’/‘inspired by’ are wildly over-used today by people who imagine all sorts of non-existent links between musical compositions that in reality do not exist. Put another way, just because Picasso uses red and blue paint, just like Velasquez, that does not mean we can make absurd claims that the former has been ‘inspired’ by the latter because they both use red and blue paint. Similarly, musical commonplaces of the time, used by different composers signify almost nothing, and are certainly cannot be described as ‘inspiration’ where they might or might not be identified. By the by, a rather better example of a similarity might be to compare the opening of this sonata, with the opening of Haydn’s e minor sonata Hob. XVI:34.
@@enankhan5233 Beethoven played for Mozart once but never received any other instruction from him. He thought highly of Mozart early in life but later in life told a student Mozart's music was too old fashioned.
Dave Knight There is far to much of a laissez faire attitude generally towards repeats and it is totally unacceptable. Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven’s sonata form music is both diminished and unbalanced by treating the composers’ instructions as optional, take-it-or-leave-it suggestions.
Common practice nowadays is to repeat the exposition but only play the decelopment/recapitulation once. Considering it's the same material with no changes, playing it once makes the ending more impactful. At least, that is my best guess.
J'aime la petite liaison introductrice !!!!! Dans le premier mouvement vous pressez par moment inutilement, ce qui fait qu'on ne sait plus ce que vous voulez dire (notamment au moment des petites notes). Sinon, c'est un mouvement plutôt réussi, ce qui est notamment permis par la fin paradoxale que vous lui donnez. Vous avez en outre bien raison de faire la reprise, que de nombreux pianistes se complaisent à oublier ; mais laisser plus de temps entre la fin et la reprise serait plus judicieux. Dans le deuxième mouvement, l'aspect de paix qui ressortit de ce mouvement n'est pas assez exploité, notamment par une maitrise assez moyenne des nuances, malgré les contrastes qui sont bien réalisés. Le tempo est en revanche cohérent. Vous gagneriez à appuyer moins fort sur les différentes touches pour donner une sonorité plus feutrée. La petite hésitation à la fin est assez maladroite. Dans le troisième mouvement, le tout n'est pas mauvais du tout, aussi bien du point de vue musical que du point de vue technique. Le quatrième et dernier mouvement est loin d'être raté, mais vous auriez pu lui donner une tonalité plus épique, qui manque peut-être un peu. Le tout est assez bon. 14,5/20
haha oui! c'est vraiment rigolo! et puis j'ai vu le 14.5/20. D'abord j'ai cru que c'est une date puis j'ai comrpis que c'etait LA note. En plus il sait beaucoup moins qui'il le croit! " de point de vue musical que du point de vue technique"! hahah. cette personne ma rappeler des professeurs au conservatoires! si seulement analyser l'interpretation de goode etait si banale alors beaucoup de choses au monde aurait ete banales
The more that I "relisten", the more that I am impressed with this series.
Back after four years and the interpretations and sound are more impressive. Feeling and crispness. Thank you.
so clear and clean. No over the top exaggeration. Just simply perfect.
I know it is quite randomly asking but does anyone know a good website to stream new movies online?
@Finley Saint i would suggest flixzone. You can find it on google :)

Been looking for this for ages
Best interpretation I have heard so far!

Exaggeration and Beethoven are right next to each other in the dictionary. But I get where you are coming from!
incredible articulation and crispness
Beautiful ! Thank you :)
Thanks for all this wonderful music!
My favorite adagio section so far. I’m looking for something I haven’t found yet.

11:21 14:35
they're already listed lmao
Best, I like this recording. I listened to Barenboim and Schiff and many others' versions. Schiff and Arrau's is good too.
You might check out Igor Levit. It's unusual, but compelling.

very nice piece composed by young Beethoven
The first part clearly was inspired by Mozart's 25th symphony (first movement). A symphony typical for Beethoven to be attracted to.
Yeah it's called a "Mannheim Rocket"
I don’t think Beethoven actually met Mozart or knew about him
More likely influenced by Mozart’s great c minor piano sonata.

Finally a version where the second repeat in the first movement is observed. Why does Maestro Barenboim never play it?
I don't know but there are versions which repeat the second section in the fourth movement as well, but this one does not

At last a rubato free interpretation!

Vous donnez des conseils à Richard Goode, ou comment ça se passe ? La prétention, ça n'a pas l'air de vous déranger...
Which means?
***** q vc eh gay

Cette personne a fait la même chose pour beaucoup de sonates Beethoven goode.
Rhapsody of Fire... anyone?
