    Cannot but agree with the rave comments about Hamelin's great performance of this masterpiece. Few pianists today have the skill and interpretative ability to tackle this sonata in a satisfactory manner. And the beautiful surrounding mentioned indeed adds a quality to the performance.

Hats off to the video producer/recording engineer and many thanks to the Tippet Rise Art Center for posting this video.

    Remarkably I had never before seen Hamelin's simple solution to the notoriously dangerous left hands skips - just cross over and play the bass note with the right hand.

    • @maplemusic8851
      @maplemusic8851 7 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed. I personally take the bass note with the LH and the B-flat 6/4 triad with the RH.

      I’ve seen it many times! It’s a good solution. You can also do what Mr. Maplemusic does. The “non-cheating” option, just playing everything with the left hand, is the “work harder, not smarter” approach.

    A significant interpretation of the Hammerklavier Sonata has long been available from the German pianist Michael Korstick, who has also produced a complete recording of all 32 Beeethoven sonatas. Korstick's art is highly esteemed, but is unfortunately little known. Like the reference recordings by Pollini and Uchida (and possibly Levit), Korstick's interpretation should definitely be heard.

      I’ve been studying and learning the Adagio for over 20 years and can give a passably credible performance. It is a deeply, powerfully introspective movement that has transcendent qualities that transfigures the performer emotionally, and hopefully the listener. Reaching the last page you feel drained and wrung out, and then finally there’s that resolution of the last three chords like bells chiming, and the promise of an awakening….
