Menahem Pressler, pianist in the Beaux Arts Trio, who recently passed away said that playing this sonata 'brought him back to life' after falling into a state of despair after he had fled from his home country in 1939 to flee the Nazis. I'm sure he would have loved this. My personal favourite rendition is that of Arthur Schnabel which has a profound solemnity about it that is hard to equal.
That which is truly great is appreciated by the few, and foolishness to the many. Fact of life. Just keep going and appreciate that which is great. Ignore the masses, and may God bless continue to bless you with such discernment.
A wonderful music still 2024...and many wonderful interpretations...and still our souls are reached despite of all the inhuman actions going on, like war, exploitation of humans and earthly substance...we ruin and praise in the same time....thanks for Beethoven and all his interprets
That's the best one. I prefer that to Waldstein. It's really good this one it's kind of retro but has real originality in the sequence of the final 3 movements the way they just flow into each other in a sort of proto-manifestation of a Gesamtkunstwerk. I haven't heard it before. Arguably the best piece for solo piano I've ever heard. A BWV1004 for piano.
this is the performance that, oddly, unlocked my totally unexplained ongoing resistance against a renascent urge to play the adagio cantabile from Mozart's K330. File this under "random historical facts", cross-referenced to "mysteries highly unlikely to be unraveled." And from there it was only a healthy respect for "completion of task" that made me begin to practice the entire K330 start to finish.
Wonderful! He is one of the only recordings I have heard who has followed the choppy phrasing that Beethoven wrote himself on the reprise of the "Aria" in the 3rd movement. The one in Gm where Beethoven literally placed 32nd rest. Most of the recordings did not follow that and it is very hard to play it that way too!
A piece of music that can cause me to cry. So emotional. But then Beethoven does that to me.
One of the great joys of my life, listening to (and seeing!) Sir András play the Beethoven Op. 109, 110, 111. A deep privilege. Thank you.
繊細かつ抑揚、表現が非常に豊か。言葉では言い表せない彼のベートーヴェンソナタ31番、涙が出ました。熟考され、それを素晴しいテクニックと音楽性で演奏された、アンドラーシュ・シフに敬意と感謝しかありません。
Weeping with sorrow, weeping with joy! So true to the score, so that Beethoven, in all his glory and tragedy, was present too.

Nagyon sok előadásban hallottam ezt a zseniális művet, de azt hiszem ez tetszik a legjobban. Köszönöm az élményt!
I heard every note of this wonderful work. Thanks, Mr. Schiff ...

Thank you for sharing this wonderful performance by a great pianist of this my favorite piano sonata!
Bravo. Magnifique interprétation

I've played that whole sonata! It was the first Mozart piece my teacher taught me. It's so much fun to play, and the second movement is so beautiful.
Such à blissful performance for heavenly work.
Superb, as usual. Thank you, Sir András Schiff. It’s thanks to you that I have learnt to appreciate and love the final three Beethoven sonatas.
Don’t forget about sonatas 101 e 106
His Fuga is really crazy ❤❤❤❤

@@is_a_togekiss thanks brother
Beautiful
nnice performance👌👌
Perfect!!
The adagio me non troppo is in b flat minor not b minor
Why did I just clamped lock my jaw and a sudden flow of tear came out? ;-;
Maybe the neighbours had just then put on Eugen Cicero's "Exercise"?!
che intensità...
I think so too
❤❤❤🔝👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
氏の31番聴いてこんなことを思いました。作曲家は無闇に何調何調って作ってる訳ではないんですよね。As。高音のあの、星の降ってくるような響き、ｓAsなんですね。こんなことを思わせて暮れる演奏ですね。

He is great artist, but sadly he doesn´t like Boogie woogie :(
The finale is atrocious.
I don't care for this interpretation.
Then don’t listen to it lol
@@Sarah.vh14 I had to listen to it before I came to that conclusion.
