Nobody plays the first movement as angry and tragic, or the second movement as sweet and heartwarming, especially that last bit. This man's playing blends the notes into a big whole that nobody else manages, except maybe Ashkenazy. He gets the musicality, a more orchestral feeling almost (he is a conductor too), and he plays in a way that the everyman can appreciate more than the other pianists who play drier, faster, more technical. A sonata is a story, not an etude.

Barenboim is also a famous orchestral conductor, for those who don't know him. As a result, Barenboim can think and hear the orchestral instrumentation in various passages as he plays piano, much like Beethoven is assumed to have. I don't believe that just because Beethoven was severe in so many ways in his life that his music needs to sound choppy and key attack always so strident. Barenboim's style is reflective of how I think the composer thought, in lyrical and robust colors. So many other performers renditions make it sound like the piano is a drum set. I doubt Bach composed his orchestral pieces in his mind using a harpsichord sound just because he used the keyboard to help work out the music. If the intent is the instruments copy the minds' intent, then newer, more tonally flexible ones would have been used by the composers had they had them. So why wouldn't we use them to their maximum effect?
@@williamshakemilk2192 oh, sorry, i'm not sure about the technique but i'm currently learning this sonata and it's pretty hard to actually get into it, that's all i can say
I practicing this peace now it was not difficult to sight read but it is difficult to master it like him I haven’t even finished the first movement yet
Played this when I was 11...won a competition with it too, but it was a very hard piece. that year when i was 11 I was able to handle the piece but it was still a little too advanced.
OK Annie, rub it in. I'm still struggling with it at nearly 70! Reminds me that Daniel Barenboim recorded all 32 sonatas at just 25. Makes one realise how little one has achieved. To nick a quip from Tom Lehrer, when Beethoven was my age he'd been dead for 14 years!
I (older sister) have to teach this piece to my brother (10) almost alone because our teacher can't really help him through online lessons ,cuz of the virus... Let's say, I'm always exhausted after we practiced 😅😂
My teacher gave me the option to play either this or sonata no 6 by Beethoven and honestly I’m torn between the two I don’t know which one I like better
He doesn't look remotely like Anthony Hopkins... *sigh* make some original jokes rather than copying some other comment and using the same joke in the wrong context...
MegaMech I agree, but he still makes it sound very convincing, still very Beethovenian. His inconsistent pace and ‘rubatos’ however, does get to me sometimes...and the prestissimo just doesn’t feel right...yet still sounds great
Charles Cxgo it could actually be that beethoven used rubato at the end of phrases. Him and other conposers didn't like the metronome and said it's only useful sparingly in practice
From what I read, the metronome was only invented towards later in his life. With rubato, Mozart certainly used it, given he’s operatic. Beethoven was said to have a strong pulse and pace, but he often changed tempos during different ‘sections’ based on its character, so not necessarily rubato in Romantic sense..

It's my favorite part of this piece :)
Also listen to the development of Sonata No. 9 movement 1, it's similar :)
Barenboim doesn't just show up. He shows!

i love the soft floaty bridge melody in movement one, so cool how it leads to the next melody
You know, if I wrote your comment on my phone, bridge would have been autocorrected to say "bowel.."
Y'know... 😐
He plays it musically and beautifully. Well done
Listen to Boris Giltburg s version
I try to play this piece.
Then I come and I watch this video.
I burst into tears.
ha ha ha I so ID
Me too. This piece is so beautiful! Beethoven and Barenboim.
@Kings_ Walker no

but why did you exactly burst into tears?

Que belleza de ejecución, técnica y sensibilidad! Gracias. Efraín Dávila R. Puebla, México.
🎶🎹 speechless 👏👏👏 you adore the 3 movement 👍🏻all of Beethovens fire 🔥 and lively temper and spirit in there 👍🏻 you do understand him deeply
Barenboim really brings out all the colors, if it weren't for him I would've never liked this sonata.
This sonata is great. It's one of what I call the six tragic sonatas - 1, 5, 8, 14, 17, and 23.
Astounding and impressive performance
The adagio is sublime
Идеально. Ариентируемся
Волшебное исполнение!!!
AMAZING! I am playing this and it is so beautiful.
前より長く、全楽章になっていらっしゃいますね。素晴らしい演奏ありがとうございます。
16:43 that clear anticipation of the Fifth Symphony.
Haha so true
Божественно!!!
Es ist Herrn Barenboims Lyrik in den langsamen Sätzen, die mich jedes Mal erneut fasziniert.

@@luminousharmony4000 What a short comment
Check Barenboim out at ~8:45 as he swings his body with the music, a lovely example of how he's feeling the rhythm there.
Beautiful and emotional
Pure Beethoven for me joy of living 🌿 joy of playing 🎼🎹 positive, full of lively power 💪
I did this for a piano exam once and let's say it didn't sound like this.
I know the experience :-D
I am given the option to play this or the sonata no 1 in f minor and I don't know which to choose. It is also for an exam. What do you recommend ?
Me too. I always felt it was so difficult to make it musical. But this performance shows the way.
Sonata No. 1 is far easier. Did it my freshman year. Going to be performing this Sonata now as a junior. @nour sharif
That could actually be a good thing. This is a very "Romantic" performance. Meaning, too much pedal.
Majestuoso😍. Escuchándola en el 2020
I Allegro molto e con brio 0:08
II Adagio molto 5:56
III Prestissimo(Final) 14:26
Thank you
Utter spirit and perfection!

I was touched.
these sonatas are not the hardest technically but Franz Liszt sais that you need to have 10 times more technique than required to play them well.
@@williamshakemilk2192 because it's hard to actually feel the music with both your ears and your fingers
@@williamshakemilk2192 oh, sorry, i'm not sure about the technique but i'm currently learning this sonata and it's pretty hard to actually get into it, that's all i can say
… and all of Beethovens musical spirit to use the keyboard 🎹 enthusiastic realisation of his amazing ideas 💡
Grandioso👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Keep trying! You don't have to play it like he does--that's his entire life. Do your best and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

It's grade 10 in RCM

I like the Joplin-esque kind of theme/sound of the final movement. I wish it was a fugue. Regardless, Beethoven was a musical genius!
