    Nulle part plus que dans ses andantes, Mozart n'a montré combien son expression personnelle a su épouser la forme que l'usage de son époque lui présentait. Dans certains de ses allegros et rondos, il peut nous arriver de percevoir jusqu'à en souffrir la symétrie et la régularité d'une section, à tel point que la forme s'impose à notre attention plus que le sentiment. Dans ses andantes, inspiration et technique, lyrisme et construction, se fondent avec une telle unité que rien ne nous distrait de la beauté de la pensée elle-même. Les concertos ne mériteraient pas, dans l'œuvre de Mozart, la place hautement représentative qu'ils occupent si leurs andantes n'étaient pas les égaux des meilleurs de ceux des quatuors et des symphonies. Aucun autre groupe de mouvements chez lui ne les dépasse en variété.
    Lili Kraus a comparé son affinité avec Mozart à une mission : « Quand j'ai commencé à explorer Mozart, j'ai découvert la beauté infinie de cette musique, et d'une certaine manière il m'est donné de donner vie à cette beauté. Je trouve qu'il est de mon devoir, de mon privilège, et si vous voulez, de ma croix, de consacrer ma vie à cette musique. » Certains pianistes et compositeurs deviennent inextricablement liés aux yeux du public. Mentionnons Glenn Gould, par exemple, et les Variations Goldberg de Bach viennent à l'esprit. Artur Schnabel et Beethoven étaient pratiquement synonymes, tout comme Walter Gieseking et Debussy, Arthur Rubinstein et Chopin, Alicia de Larrocha et les impressionnistes espagnols. Lorsqu'il s'agissait de la musique pour piano de Mozart, plusieurs générations d'auditeurs et de collectionneurs considéraient les interprétations de Lili Kraus comme le dernier mot..

    Les concertos que Mozart a écrits pour son instrument favori jouent dans l'histoire de leur genre un rôle comparable à celui joué dans l'histoire de la symphonie par les neuf chefs-d'œuvre de Beethoven. De même que la symphonie beethovénienne a déterminé la forme du genre pour près d'un siècle, de même les concertos pour piano de Mozart, par leur nombre et par la grande beauté de la plupart d'entre eux, sont à l'origine du concerto moderne et ont tracé les lignes selon lesquelles il s'est pendant longtemps développé.
    Le défi pour les compositeurs de la fin du XVIIIe siècle était de concilier les caractéristiques les plus fortes de la forme concerto baroque (contrastes timbraux distincts entre un instrumentiste soliste et un orchestre, plus une brillante écriture en solo) avec le nouveau style de sonate-allegro. Lui-même virtuose accompli, Mozart a élevé la fonction de pianiste soliste à de nouveaux niveaux d'expression, de technique et d'élan dramatique. Par conséquent, le piano et l'orchestre n'étaient pas simplement des partenaires égaux, mais des personnages distincts à part entière.
    Entre tous les grands compositeurs, Mozart est celui qui a enrichi la bibliothèque du genre du plus grand nombre de chefs-d'œuvre. Chez la plupart des maîtres, les concertos tiennent une place relativement petite, beaucoup plus petite, par exemple, que les symphonies ou les quatuors. Chez lui, au contraire, ils sont plus nombreux que n'importe quelles autres compositions, à l'exception des symphonies.
    Cependant, aux yeux du musicien qui se préoccupe moins de l'histoire de la forme que de la personnalité de chaque œuvre, de la pensée qui l'inspire et de la joie qu'elle peut procurer, ses concertos sont encore plus précieux, car ils constituent une source intarissable de jouissance artistique. Ils forment un groupe de chefs-d'œuvre qu'on pratique continuellement sans jamais s'en lasser.
    Dans leur diversité, ils correspondent aux états d'âme les plus variés, depuis le contentement où nous demandons l'art d'être une simple distraction, délicate plutôt que profonde, depuis la joie de vivre franche et animale, la santé physique et morale et le parfait équilibre de toutes les facultés, jusqu'à la mélancolie, la douleur et même la révolte, jusqu'à cette sérénité « olympienne » qui atteint l'air vivifiant des hauts sommets. Il y a peu de moments de notre vie intérieure qui ne retrouvent dans l'un ou l'autre le tonique dont ils ont besoin. C'est là la marque des plus grandes œuvres et elle permet de placer ces concertos parmi ce que la musique a produit de plus durable.
    L'uniformité relative qu'au premier abord on croit constater entre eux disparaît devant l'examen. L'émotion ne se reproduit jamais identique d'une œuvre à l'autre ; une physionomie particulière à chacune d'elles permet de les différencier, et la variété de leur inspiration se révèle toujours plus grande à mesure qu'on en approfondit l'étude. C'est grâce à cette variété que Mozart est parmi le petit nombre des compositeurs dont on peut faire son pain quotidien. Peu importe la diversité de la forme ; la diversité de l'émotion est celle qu'exige notre esprit et la seule qui prévienne l'ennui. Nombre de musiciens ont une forme plus variée que celle de Mozart, et leurs œuvres, néanmoins, lorsqu'on veut s'en repaître, provoquent bientôt un sentiment de monotonie que le Mozart des grandes œuvres ne cause jamais et dont on ne souffre chez lui que si on s'obstine à l'étudier dans les compositions où il n'a pas mis le fond de lui-même. Ce privilège qui leur appartient' de satisfaire d'une manière durable l'âme et l'esprit, plus encore que leur rôle historique, a valu à ses concertos pour piano leur place aux rangs des chefs-d'œuvre.
    Nulle part plus que dans ses andantes, Mozart n'a montré combien son expression personnelle a su épouser la forme que l'usage de son époque lui présentait. Dans certains de ses allegros et rondos, il peut nous arriver de percevoir jusqu'à en souffrir la symétrie et la régularité d'une section, à tel point que la forme s'impose à notre attention plus que le sentiment. Dans ses andantes, inspiration et technique, lyrisme et construction, se fondent avec une telle unité que rien ne nous distrait de la beauté de la pensée elle-même. Les concertos ne mériteraient pas, dans l'œuvre de Mozart, la place hautement représentative qu'ils occupent si leurs andantes n'étaient pas les égaux des meilleurs de ceux des quatuors et des symphonies. Aucun autre groupe de mouvements chez lui ne les dépasse en variété.
    Nous sentons, cependant, que certains mouvements s'apparentent l'un à l'autre, qu'il est des « familles de mouvements » et cela permet d'établir une certaine classification parmi eux. C'est ainsi que les andantes de Mozart, malgré leur richesse et leur diversité, et avec quelques exceptions, se laissent rapporter à quatre ou cinq types, que nous pouvons étiqueter, pour plus de commodité, l'andante galant, l'andante-rêve, l'andante ou adagio méditatif, l'andante cantabile ou romance, et l'andante élégiaque ou dramatique. Personne ne sera dupe de cette classification au point de la croire absolue. Mais elle peut nous aider à embrasser plus facilement l'ensemble de ces andantes où Mozart a livré ce qu'il avait de plus précieux.
    Les concertos de Mozart, cependant, étaient loin d'être des incontournables des salles de concert au début du XXe siècle. Pourtant, le vent a commencé à tourner. Une nouvelle génération d'éminents claviéristes classiques, parmi lesquels Wanda Landowska, Walter Gieseking, Edwin Fischer et Arthur Schnabel, a contribué à faire avancer la cause, tout comme Lili Kraus. Lili Kraus a comparé son affinité avec Mozart à une mission : « Quand j'ai commencé à explorer Mozart, j'ai découvert la beauté infinie de cette musique, et d'une certaine manière il m'est donné de donner vie à cette beauté. Je trouve qu'il est de mon devoir, de mon privilège, et si vous voulez, de ma croix, de consacrer ma vie à cette musique. »

    The Lili Kraus and Stephen Simon complete Mozart Concertos were recommended to me when I read an article about where to find the best recordings of all these concertos. Wow! I hit the jackpot. The pianist and conductor understand Mozart more deeply than anyone else I have ever listened to in these concertos! Mozart can be so deep, bring out emotions in such a subtle way that you don't even know those emotions were even in you. There is also great humor and playfulness, simplicity and elegance, nuance... on and on. I think Lili Kraus understood Mozart better than almost any other pianist. She was so attuned to the composer, there is such color in every note and Lili searches the depths of touch and tone. Just as Mozart's concertos go where no composer can go, Lili Kraus and Stephen Simon go where no pianist and orchestra usually travel. What words can one use to describe these concertos? Sublime, gorgeous? Yes!

    The more I listen to Mozarts #24, the more I realize what this piece was. This was Mozart for one month not giving a damn what people thought. This piece was Mozart coming out of a shell. This piece was to leave no doubt who the best composer in the world was. This piece was Mozart telling the world "I'm here and this is why I'm the best". He didn't just write another concerto. He crushed what a concerto was up until this point. He sounded like he was freeing himself , and he let the world know this is how good he is and how far he's come. If I were Haydn or Beethoven listening to this for tbe first time, I would be In complete awe, shocked, and would run and hide because this was like what Beethovens 9th did to the Romantics, it set the bar high in the genre and they knew any work they did would never measure up. Oh so many composers were happy and sad he left early because this man had skills, heart, photographic memory, taste, and knew how to take a melody and create endless possibilities. As Haydn cried the last 15 years of his life "If the world could only see his talent through my musical eyes, they would never let him go. He was an irreplaceable generational talent gone way too soon."

      Just saw your great comment. The concertos 20-27 are absolutely mind blowing. I agree that # 24 is something special but all this last group are individually special in their own way. For me, the first movement of # 25 is Mozart on steroids. He is just laying out everything in his "tool box" .And the opening bars of # 27 makes me shudder . It's just an amazing opening. He certainly knew how good he was . Listening to these concertos you can see from where Beethoven's piano concertos germinated. Beethoven was 21 when Mozart died and he must have been aquainted with these concertos and loved them.

      @@BritinIsrael nice post. Ironically, the opening bars of #27 ended up being very popular with the Romantics after Beethoven. The concept of briefly playing the strings before the piano was something the Romantics loved and it was one of mozarts many contributions to Romanticsm I guess. The opening of his 40th symphony was a similar thing.

      It`s so beautiful words can hardly describe it. That was one of Mozarts talents, to put his feelings to music, and when he wrote " The 23rd " the adagio.......he was really really sad...he must`ve been. It was Stalins favorite piece of music, and though he was a coldblooded killer, it proves, that deep down in his dark soul.........there was still some genuine feelings, trying to get out.

      One of my favorites as a kid. Mozart had a superb memory. He would experiment, and always remembered the result. He remembered everything he heard or studied. He was always experimenting. That was mozarts main gift. He also worked very hard on his craft and man it showed in his 30s. Beethoven would've had no chance if mozart lived another 15 or 20 years.

Haskil had a life more difficult by her difficult physical , during war 1940 ' not Lili Kraus . Except thoses differencz j can say there were two Mozart Haskil- Krauss the others pianists are all very good ( mostly Geza Anda ) but there us not this above the notes , there are no word , that is with Lili Kraus .

      So do agree of her performance quality! Murray Perahia is, for my taste, near perfect. He provides the most soft, slower and sensitive interpretation of 1 through 27! Again, my taste. Lili Kraus is a little quick which, to me, detracts a bit. To show you how critical I am, I consider Horowitz something of a key-banger.
      Taste! We all have our individually.
      I have not nor will I ever tell anyone how to listen to or enjoy any form of musical entertainment.
      Willie Nelson wrote the music his own lyrics to Angle Flying Too Close to the Ground. It is simply beautiful! Taste. The loveliest piece of music he ever composed or performed. Again, taste!

    #22 is no joke either. The second movement was revolutionary and no one realizes it. :) His father attended the premier so you know mozart was going to do extra for his dad in the audience. His dad was in shock. Not of his sons extraordinary talent, but the audience gave a standing applause after the second movement. It was the first time in history that the audience begged for an entire repeat of the second movement in a minor key. Mozart could be himself with minor key. I've said this for the past 20 years. Twice mozart interrupted the minor themes with major themes showcasing woodwinds. Then he would explode back to minor on the piano. The perfect piece to show off to his dad. I'm sure that wad an extraordinary moment for him. That piece was revolutionary in many ways. Mozart elevated the piano with more power in the concerto. Something that later inspired Beethoven.

      (Wikipedia)
      Lili Kraus was born in Budapest in 1903. Her father was from Czech Lands, and her mother from an assimilated Jewish Hungarian family.
      She enrolled at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music, and at the age of 17 entered the Budapest Conservatory where she studied with Zoltán Kodály, and Béla Bartók. In the 1930s, she continued her studies with Severin Eisenberger, Eduard Steuermann in Vienna and Artur Schnabel in Berlin, who focused her interest in the classical tradition.
      Lili Kraus soon became known as a specialist in Mozart and Beethoven. Her early chamber music performances and recording with violinist Szymon Goldberg helped gain the critical acclaim that launched her international career. In the 1930s, she toured Europe, Japan, Australia and South Africa. In 1940, Kraus embarked on a tour of Asia where, while in Java, she and her family were captured and interned in a concentration camp by the Japanese from June 1943 until August 1945.
      After the war, she settled in New Zealand where she spent many happy years playing, performing, and teaching. She became a NZ citizen and resumed her career, teaching and touring extensively. In the early 1950s she performed the entire Beethoven sonata cycle with violinist Henri Temianka. From 1967 to 1983, she taught as artist-in-residence at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth. After that she made her home in Asheville, North Carolina, where she died in 1986.
      Kraus' husband was Otto Mandl (b. 1889 d. 1956), a wealthy Jewish (later converted to Catholicism) mining engineer and philosopher. They were married on October 31, 1930 and Mandl sold his business in order to devote himself to the furtherance of Kraus' career.[1]. The couple had two children, Ruth and Michael.

    Thank you for this. Of course, "The Big Piano Concertos" are the climax of Mozart's work. Breadwinners or not, they were HIS and HIS only. He was the author, the conductor and the performer with them. Nothing else shows his personality as much, what he was both outside and inside. Sometimes, I can see his face, his posture, his movements in this music, his absolute enjoyment of playing it. They all reflect his persona, one way or another. But as much as I know about him, as much as I read in any language I could understand, I see his most precise selfportrait in #23-II. Sadness hidden behind a wide smile, wisdom in the shadow of a joke.

    This is a "Century's Record" without any doubt. This sublime recording of the Mozart Piano Concertos was perhaps the apex of a dynamic relationship between the gilded American Stephen Simon, and Lili Kraus through whose veins flowed the pianistic tradition of Central Europe. For her it was the culmination of a life's work and perhaps for Stephen Simon, who conducts with sensitivity and balance, it too, marks a personal highpoint. His influence no doubt created the mysterious Vienna Festival Orchestra, probably made up of the most able musicians freelancing from the Vienna Phil. The remastering reveals a glorious sound. I cannot recommend these recordings highly enough.

      Tim Allen: Sorry, you're way off base here. Mozart left no cadenzas for this concerto, as was often the case with those he intended for his own use. It was the custom of the time, until Beethoven's 5th concerto, to improvise, and many pianists still do, if they can (or play something they've prepared.) Ms. Kraus is playing those left to us by Beethoven, as many pianists still do. If you object, take it up with Wolfie and Louie.

    • @TimAllen7
      @TimAllen7 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm not off base and I have no problem with "Wolfie and Louie". I said the cadenza was not written by Mozart. (BTW, it wasn't written by Beethoven either.) I implied that Ms. Kraus's cadenza is not as good as the rest of the piece and that it was too long and pretentious. If I'm wrong, show me a cadenza written by "Wolfie or Louie" that carries on for more than 2 minutes.

  • @elanding6059

    • @jeanghika7653
      @jeanghika7653 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      C'était un homme triste, Mozart. Obligé d'écrire de la musique "gaie" pour la Société, il donnait le meilleur de lui-même quand il composait en mineur, car c'était le plus profond de son âme. Ceci posé, il s'est beaucoup "inspiré" (pour ne pas dire plus) de Johann Christian Bach. Écoutez donc les concertos pour piano de celui-ci op. 13. Vous allez.. entendre. J'ai failli écrire "voir"!.
      Quant à Lil Kraus, elle a des passages où elle fait des accelerandi non justifiés. Peut-être par nervosité. Seul celui qui n'a pas joué en public ignore ce que c'est cette énorme nervoité que l'on appelle "trac", "Lampenfieber", "stage fright". Personne ne peut y échapper, pas même les plus grands et les plus routinés. Un de ces grands disait:"Après la première fausse note je n'ai plus de trac". Ayant demandé à un grand maître de la baguette ce qu'il voulait exprimer par les grands cercles dessinés, de temps à autre, par son bras gauche. Réponse:"C'est quand j'ai oublié la partition et ne me rappelle pas les entrées." Et c'était l'un des cinq ou six des plus grands du monde de son temps (1940-1960s). Il a été l'un de mes deux maîtres. RIP et un grand merci, Maestro!

      yea No.23 2nd movement is the most beautiful piece with over-flows of peaceful serenity, especially with the rendering of the clarinet... loved that melody for almost 20 years( I always linked it up with the 2nd movement of the clarinet concerto) . And as for the minors - you're right, Mozart seldom composed in them for piano works with two exceptions - the two most epic ones are the No.20 and No.24 both in d minors... the No.20 was such a magnificent materpiece that Beethoven once commented that no one ever would compose out something like that

    • @remomazzetti8757
      @remomazzetti8757 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I believe the slow movement of #23 is the only one in the piano concertos to be marked Adagio which for a composer in the austro-germanic tradition is more than a tempo marking: it implies music of a deeply profound type. The extraordinary Adagio Sostenuto of Beethoven's great Hammerklavier Sonata is also in f sharp minor like Mozart's, and seems to me to have been influenced by the Mozart slow movement.

    It took me a long while, but I finally figured out mozart. No matter how hard you study, as Beethoven found out, you will never be him. Why? He remembered everything. It's really that simple. He had an unbelievable ear, math genius, and can remember everything he hears or touches. He could be extraterrestrial for all we know! Mozart reused his old melodies all the time because they were simply in his head and he was trying to make them better. Piano concerto #22 for example, 3rd movement is an example where only mozart could do it. Beethoven couldn't have that creativity to save his life. His memory was the main difference! You can hear it in his music. Every concerto gets better and better at something because he can always recall what he did. It's what made him tbe greatest ever.

      This #22 is another hidden gem. Interesting story about the andante movement. His father attended the premier of this concerto and he was shocked when the audience gave mozart a standing applause after the second movement. He was like "what's going on here?". It was the first time ever there the audience asked the performer to play the second movement over again. Unheard of at the time for a minor key work.

    • @beethovenlovedmozart
      @beethovenlovedmozart 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The second movement plays to mozarts strengths. Since its in a minor key, he could be serious without consequences. Also he was the first to really bring piano as tbe dominant instrument in a concerto. He was a top 10 pianist of all time.

    • @beethovenlovedmozart
