The second movement really enchanted me as a child. I used to imagine ballerinas and think of how they might dance to it. I had the dark stage and costumes all planned out in my head. Now that I'm older I've learned to play it, and it gives me a very comforted, nostalgic feeling.

rkgk1517 Ha! The definition of "classical" music: that which draws a positive emotional response from all people, of all generations, ages, and classes.
I had a similar reaction when I was a child. I thought the theme to the second movement was the most beautiful thing in the world. I obsessed over it for a long time, until I was able to play it.
Thanks dad for listening to this amazing music when I was a child. The day I meet you again in the afterlife will be the happiest ever and I hope we get to listen to this great music together again. Love you dad.
I love playing this amazing sonata on the piano, it's a pure delight to play, admittedly there are areas I can improve on, and this video gave me some very useful tips I can use to improve mu playing more, though iam not doing bad humbly speaking, considering I am mostly self taught, greetings from wales uk

If you listen carefully, you can hear that Chopin may have been inspired by part of the introduction of this piece reflected in his E minor Nocturne no. 4
There is one piece of music that has consistently and constantly left me at the end with eyes-closed, tears of musical joy streaming down my cheeks, This is it. Thank you, a wonderful interpretation.
This is the best performance I have heard so far. That is close to how I want to play it. I have never heard of the person who plays it; I will have to look him up.
@@CatLover69420 Mozart didnt teach Beethoven. And he even said "Watch out for that boy. One day he will give the world something to talk about." So nope, not the Mozart
Hayden? I know they quarreled. Perhaps Hayden had difficulty coping with Beethoven’s radical ideas and musical genius that were beyond even his scope of musical genius. I sympathize with Hayden. A rare student indeed!
There will always be only one Beethoven. His genius will never die, but live on throughout the ages to come. Exceptional music written be a monumental icon of composition who changed forever the way music was to be written. I understand anyone who labels Beethoven’s life as the Beethoven era as he bridged the classical with the romantic and ignited yet another musical revolution. His compositions will forever speak to the soul and reach the heart. Renowned Conductor, Leonard Bernstein, even boldly proclaimed Beethoven as ‘the greatest of composers’. Just listen to the Pathetique Sonata and you’ll appreciate why he would say such words.
crystal clear notes, I especially like how the pianist played the codetta runs. Good tempo, not too much pedal, amazing dynamics. thanks for sharing =)
I love this piece, but the first movement is the most beautiful I think. I love how many emotions you can lay into this playing it... and the wrists don't even hurt that much with the right technique
Well I doubt Beethoven gave this piece its nickname, and plus, pathétique doesn't mean pathetic, it means full of pathos or emotion. So if anything, the name is a big understatement ;)
TopRameen13 It really showcases what Beethoven was all about. While Mozart was churning out one symphony after another, Beethoven was editing, re-editing, sweating, and painstakingly writing out his Sonatas
:o) Öreg ember vagyok én már az 50 évemmel. Zenész-családból származom, gyerekkorom óta körbevesz a zene. Annyira nem voltam tehetséges, hogy zenélni tanuljak, de valami át kellett jöjjön a génekkel a szüleimtől, mert nagyon szeretem a zenét. :)
This second movement feels like a light in the classical era. Where everyone follows the trend of music except for Beethoven. If You were to purchase this sonata in that time, it really is like a glowing score of music which cannot be compared. Not to say the classical music isn't very developed, I love haydn symphonies. This music has no description other than divine.
I love playing this song! Bethoven a a genius! Oh, and by the way, people can have their opinions in the comments, but your arguments still make me laugh. Just accept their music, don't critique that soandso is better than soandso. All these men are amazingly talented. When you become as genius as they are, or you can compose or play a song like they could, then say their music sucks. Otherwise... Just don't... Bye...
Love the passion and emotion in this piece along with its smooth fluid nature is how i feel when im playing at my best in football. Putting this on the Ipod now!
ok, you are right, but there is the interpretation of Friedrich Goulda wich i love a little bit more then this one of the mister who played very well but not like Goulda who perfectly transmitted the stile of classic vienes. (oh,my enlish, i know, but you can understand i supose).
I've been told that you're supposed to move your wrist rather than your fingers for much of the piece so your hands don't get tired. I, however, have yet to master the technique.
I started this song after playing Chopin's revolutionary etude, so my left hand was already in good shape. Also, I focus mostly on my right hand and my left hand relaxes naturally. Once you're comfortable with the notes, just try not to think about your left at all.
What Konstantin says is correct, by using the wrist, there is little tiring in the left hand. It's similar to what you'd use in the right hand of Schumann's second Novelette. Another thing would be to really focus on relaxing the shoulders, after which the entire arm tends to open up and allow more freedom.
Me gusta... sobre todo el título, y también la partitura, la cual es preciosa. Ah! se me olvidaba, la interpretación; casi perfecta! ya sabes, la perfección dicen que no existe!!! Gracias
If I was to algebraically compare Beethoven's music to today's music according to how theoretical, intriguing, and evocative the music is, the ratio would be undefined; you can't divide by zero.
I like this performance very much! And I heard another Beethoven-piece played also by Dezső RÁNKI, the Mondscheinsonata which was- I think, the best interpretation by him - I have ever heard. It is pitty that it is not on You tube, I listened to that from a Hungarian Radio station, Radio Bartók.
Oh how this song makes me SWAY with the beauty of it. |'-) :') It nearly makes me cry!!! I can make myself cry to it, though. It's just so moving!!! :'D I didn't even know it was this long!!! Amazing!!! Yay! Now I get to hear it while working! :)
i've been working on all three movements for over 10 years now. few other things in my life seem more important. it's so nice to be able to see the music and follow it. in the beginning i couldn't even do that. still, it would be nice to see a much better graphical representation using colors and activation of each note as it is played, in addition to showing piano playing with and without fingers. all are so critical to learning to master pieces such as these.
Beautiful! I played the 1st movement a few years ago and am exploring it again. I plan on doing the other two movement as well. One of my favorite pieces for pieces for piano.
The third movement of beethoven's sonatas are typically minuets or scherzos, both in dance form. All of his symphonies have movements in dance form, albeit you can't tell that much, they're in a strict meter, and you can dance to them. In fact, you can dance to any music in existance, because dancing, although I'm sure you don't treat it like one, is an art. It doesn't have to be two people grinding up against each other to a strobe light and a thumping bass, you know.
I hadn't heard about Ránki Dezső before, but I found this performance amazing :) Definitely one of the best renditions of Pathetique! This one along with Sviatoslav Richter's performance are now my favorite versions...
Thankyou for sharing this.... hoping to try it after the moonlight,,,looks hard,,, great post with sheet music alongside the sonata,,,a tricky challenge but cant wait to get started,,,, probably prefer to the moonlight,, brilliant piece :)
The only stuff that he wrote while completely deaf were parts of his 9th Symphony. His symptoms started right about when he made this piece, but he didn't have severe hearing damge until 10 or 20 years later.
Played this 6 years ago for my grade 10 RCM exam. Was my highest mark. I have no idea how because I tried playing it couple days ago and I can't play it anymore......so sad
the subject that ive learned from bach is the fugue, counter pointer, ect.............. these were the basics but very complex contents of music during that day of age but now in these times everything is simple if you want to make a beat or sound like a star,you just need to have the right people working with you.

I played the second movement at my grandmother's funeral many years back, and to this day, it'll still bring tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful piece.

Beethoven is so authentic... ingenious
This is not simply a sonata... this is Beethoven's feelings...
Yes, I completely agree with you.
What pathetique people thumbed this down?
Ahahaha I see what you did there
Linukcs
As a Bach fan, I'm going to have to disagree with your 3 year old comment.
Those pathetique PERSONS who are unable to understand that "PERSONS" is the plural of "PERSON"? ;)
8:17 If you listen closely during this silence with your volume up, you can hear someone playing a piano in the adjacent room... pretty cool!
It's the same bar he playes 2 seconds later...
MY GOD UR RIGHT!
It's just an audio corruption; there's no way there'd be someone else playing piano in the adjoining room while a recording was being taken.

there has been chopin , bach even mozart yet none can quite provide the same intense passion which beethoven provides ....the greatest ever!
:Dp
you forgot shubert
Soren Mikkelsen ah yes a 1000 pardons schubert was actually closest to what beethoven provided in terms of passion...
Soren Mikkelsen sounds like a frozen desert :p

If someone cant play the first 5 bars
Beethoven: *P A T H E T I Q U E*
A master piece. Can't stop listening to it.
Having both the visual and the audio, brings Beethoven alive in my mind.
Thanks, always
Trust me even pianist such as myself need the visual with the music it comes in handy when learning new pieces.
and to think his music teacher said he had no hope as a composer
Mozart?
@@CatLover69420 Mozart didnt teach Beethoven. And he even said "Watch out for that boy. One day he will give the world something to talk about." So nope, not the Mozart

I’ve always loved the sonata and now I appreciate its wonders even more, following the score.Thank you very much.
writing my school speech on "Appreciation of Music" while listening to this :)
amazing.
inspiring me to learn this! can't wait to get started.
Beethoven had a great humour sense, I think that calling this sonata "pathetique" is the biggest sarcasm in the History of music.
Well I doubt Beethoven gave this piece its nickname, and plus, pathétique doesn't mean pathetic, it means full of pathos or emotion. So if anything, the name is a big understatement ;)
TopRameen13 My version is wrong, but funnier too.;D

It really showcases what Beethoven was all about. While Mozart was churning out one symphony after another, Beethoven was editing, re-editing, sweating, and painstakingly writing out his Sonatas
Actually, he did call it the Pathetique himself.
Renji Mao That's actually a myth. His publisher called the piece Pathetique with Beethoven's approval. Beethoven himself did not name the piece.

Pathetique Sonata Op.13 2nd Movement has always been by far my favorite piece to play on piano. I love that all of the moments are combined here!
Yay! It's back! It was private forever and that bugged me so much, now i can finally listen to it again!
This entire recording is magnificent, but I particularly find myself in awe of the third movement. So... pure and Beethovian.
This second movement feels like a light in the classical era. Where everyone follows the trend of music except for Beethoven. If You were to purchase this sonata in that time, it really is like a glowing score of music which cannot be compared. Not to say the classical music isn't very developed, I love haydn symphonies.

1st movement is my favorite 💞
Totally agree, but the ending was good too :)
This is my favourite sonata.
The first movement is my favourite first movement.
The second as well.
The third as well.
I love 08:50 2nd movement - Adagio Cantabile
As close to a definitive performance as you will ever get! Perfect and outstanding.
Beethoven is always comforting and beautiful!
The first movement is passionate, the second beautiful & relaxing, and the finale exciting!
Well said. If someone truly loves classical music, they should be excited any time someone new shows an interest in it.
What a wonderful piece pf piano music - my mother used to play it! Very beautifully played by Ránki Dezső!
Thank you for posting all this great music in such a clean format. It is most appreciated.
John
I love it all... but 8:50 brought back good old nostalgia - w -,
Fascinating performance, indeed! Thank you for posting it.
Beethoven puto amo, llevo 2 años de superior cateando por esta obra.

Bye...
You no i found soandso to be almost the same as so an sdo
my second sonata very far from to day ; it-s a particular sonata for me , a life is short
Such a beautiful piece... Classical music just defies Modern music
this is my first time listening to this sonata properly, and i recognise so many tunes in it from movies and other soundtracks.
Love the passion and emotion in this piece along with its smooth fluid nature is how i feel when im playing at my best in football. Putting this on the Ipod now!
The first movement makes me jump from a dead sleep - Second movement puts me back sleep - soooo smooooth!
I've always played the piano and didn't like it very much, but I actually felt pleasure once I started with this one :D
My reaction when I listened to this sonata, "It will be just a piece of cake!", Now, "WTF is this?!". XD
I can play this...
The second movement is play extraordinarily divine! Such beautiful tone :)
one of the best sonata of beethoven
Interpretação maravilhosa. Toca de forma intensa, apaixonada. Assim era Beethoven.
I agree....the best I ever heared...I love the Pathetique since I can think...but this interpretation has no comparison!......it calls forth my tears
ok, you are right, but there is the interpretation of Friedrich Goulda wich i love a little bit more then this one of the mister who played very well but not like Goulda who perfectly transmitted the stile of classic vienes. (oh,my enlish, i know, but you can understand i supose).
i love the rhythm and the time signatures
Exceptional performance!
Always new inspiration after this 8th sonata
How does the guy play without utterly burning out the left hand by the development????
I've been told that you're supposed to move your wrist rather than your fingers for much of the piece so your hands don't get tired. I, however, have yet to master the technique.
All I was told was to "relax" my hand. I have no idea how to do that long enough to play the passages in this piece.
I started this song after playing Chopin's revolutionary etude, so my left hand was already in good shape. Also, I focus mostly on my right hand and my left hand relaxes naturally. Once you're comfortable with the notes, just try not to think about your left at all.

This piece along with Moonlight Sonata is played by Anthony Perkins on the piano when he reprised his role for Norman Bates in Psycho II in 1983
Keep calm and listen to Beethoven...magnifique
I'm going to start calling things that I think are beautiful "Pathetique."
I like this performance very much! And I heard another Beethoven-piece played also by Dezső RÁNKI, the Mondscheinsonata which was- I think, the best interpretation by him - I have ever heard. It is pitty that it is not on You tube, I listened to that from a Hungarian Radio station, Radio Bartók.

La sonata n° 8 composta più di duecento anni fa è tuttora attuale, moderna, indispensabile nel repertorio di chi voglia fare musica.
Even though I don't know anything about music, this drew me in completely and I ended up in tears

I hadn't heard about Ránki Dezső before, but I found this performance amazing :) Definitely one of the best renditions of Pathetique! This one along with Sviatoslav Richter's performance are now my favorite versions...
That ending is just unreal. It just ended.
The next piece i will learn to play
Me too! so excited!
What you are doing is magnificent. Seeing the music is so vital to understanding the piece.
Thankyou for sharing this.... hoping to try it after the moonlight,,,looks hard,,, great post with sheet music alongside the sonata,,,a tricky challenge but cant wait to get started,,,, probably prefer to the moonlight,, brilliant piece :)
The only stuff that he wrote while completely deaf were parts of his 9th Symphony. His symptoms started right about when he made this piece, but he didn't have severe hearing damge until 10 or 20 years later.
intoxicating...never gets old.
its all about the details. Notes are easy to play, dynamics, tone, and such are not quite as easy. Keep that in mind
So I came here from Raimahinnof's 3rd concerto for piano...Man my ears feel better now :)
Epic!! One of the best music I've ever heard! Thanks a lot for uploading such amazing music.
wow... amazing... ive been playing piano for years and still... wow! #amazing
79 people don't have souls
it's a question of taste. live and let live.
A work of a Genius.
Gyönyörű! Köszönet a feltöltésért! :)
This is a wonderful performance!!
Ah such a nice piece. So excited to start learning it!
Me too! what an inspiration to just hear it.
BEST version I've ever heard. And that means alot. Because I am the classical master!!
Played this 6 years ago for my grade 10 RCM exam. Was my highest mark. I have no idea how because I tried playing it couple days ago and I can't play it anymore......so sad
i had so much fun today sight reading this! amazing piece of music!
The 2nd movement is my favourite. Love the 1st movement too!
God I do remember how to read music. What a great idea uploading these this way. Awesome, thank you.
the subject that ive learned from bach is the fugue, counter pointer, ect.............. these were the basics but very complex contents of music during that day of age but now in these times everything is simple if you want to make a beat or sound like a star,you just need to have the right people working with you.
i also love the dynamics
I HATE it when there's so mch arguing on such a nice video like this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL.
The amount of times I have heard this piece...
