Mr. Barenboim, thank you for this mini lecture about Mozart his last piano concerto no. 27. Your lecture inspires many listeners to enjoy listening to the magic of all Mozart his piano concertos. With much appreciation, an please keep on playing Mozart, and other great composers for many, many years.
This is Mozart's best piece. There is utterly perfection in every bar and there is perfect balance throughout. It is personally and skillfully, artfully written and the counterpoint seems effortless and divine as the melodies. The piano and the orchestra are equal and there is no virtuosity, but just pure, elevated music. He wrote the cadenzas himself and they are the best ones of any concerto. About the character: it is certainly not sad, but not openly happy either. It is nostalgic and bitter-sweetly looking back at gone springs, contended by the present with the glance towards the eternity. Together with Die Zauberflöte this is Mozart's real farewell to life and not his requiem.
I whole heartedly agree with your comment. I also feel that this concerto has an underlying darkness to it, especially in the opening to the 1st movement.
Though I love this concerto too but I would only say it’s among his best maybe because there are quite a deal of Mozart’s works greater than this even in his piano concerti alone. And I’m afraid the notion of him saying farewell to the world is a bit too romanticised. The magic flute is a huge success. During the same period of time of composing this concerto, his output includes the great string trio. The clarinet quintet and even one more string quintet is about to come. The last year of his life is a fruitful year and he was very much optimistic about his income and his finally secured position at the st Stephen’s cathedral. He didn’t expect his premature death at all. If he was not so overworked all his life especially in his childhood. He would’ve survived. Alas. 💔
@@airpanache About the last thing you say about his death, he is believed to have had rheomatic fever and he was ill back and forth for a great part of his life. Given the life expectancy and conditions at the time it is not surprising at all that he died young - several other great composers like Schubert and Chopin also died prematurely. ...although, at the very end he did realize he was going to die. But yes, it is probably an afterwards reconstruction to give meaning to his compositions and the same probably goes for stuff like his d minor quarter that is speculated to have been influenced by his wife giving birth.
@@airpanache Thank you for that perspective. I will share from my understanding, this concerto was performed at a concert of his friend Joseph Beer, a clarinetist, in hopes to bring in some income because he could no longer secure audiences of his own. Therefore, I’m not sure if he had complete confidence in his financial security at the time of writing this concerto.
Dear Maestro Barenboim, thank you once more for your so heartfelt, fresh and spontaneous playing, in spite of your deep knowledge! And also for your statement that in music many different approaches are possible. I think, Mozart’s music especially in most cases contains melancholy, joy and peace at the same time, and it rather depends on the musician and listener which aspect prevails.
@@miryambarnabas2424 Many thanks! You are welcome to my channel, including several music documentaries: www.youtube.com/@UteNeumerkel_RomanticClassics/featured
@@miryambarnabas2424 Many thanks! You are welcome to my channel, including several music documentaries, i. e. about Schumann, Liszt the pianist and more.
Daniel Barenboim swings round on the piano stool and there at once is that sure touch. Mozart requires both boldness and delicacy. Mr Barenboim lives in that zone of grace and breathes its air like a native.
Thank you maestro for giving us these pearls of knowledge and interpretation. I had the opportunity to study piano for only 4 years, but those years were very important for all the rest of my life. Thank you again and greetings from Athens, Greece.
I met you in 1992 or 3 when you visited Pablo Casals elementary school in Chicago while I was teaching music there at the time. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.
Thank you for this magnificent explication of Mozart's last piano concerto. With Mozart there is no death. I think Mozart lived in his music and knew what he was writing would live forever. Daniel is such a wonder. He is probably the greatest orchestral conductor on Earth. His magnificent piano abilities are sometimes forgotten in light of his consistent orchestral direction with all orchestras of the world and the magnificence of his conducting. If you read his biography, you know how great his piano playing was, but his musicianship was so outstanding that orchestral conducting became the logical extension of his art. Daniel could wear two hats and do that magnificently! Genius has its own reason for being and Daniel is a true musical genius whose art, like Mozart's, will never die.
Hola Sr. Barenboim: no soy Pianista, soy profesora de Danza Contemporánea formada también en Danza CLASICA. Le agradezco mucho estos vídeos en el cual nos educan cada vez más en la música de los grandes autores de la historia de la música clásica. Gracias por tener acceso a su conocimiento.
Sr. Barenboin ¡¡Querido Maestro¡¡ MUCHÍSIMAS GRACIAS por su generosidad al explicar músicas ...¡¡Sus palabras, sus conocimientos y su placer al transmitirnos sus saberes, nos ayudan a escuchar mejor ¡¡Qué deleite¡¡ MARAVILLOSO¡¡ Le envío mis mejores deseos: alegrías y buena fortuna, para que continúe con su extraordinaria trayectoria, además de brindarnos más de estos enriquecedores videos¡¡
These are such valuable glimpses into such a wide range of issues confronting an equally wide range of piano repertoire. I cannot thank Maestro Barenboim for these glimpses, and almost always, I wish he had more than five minutes to offer his insights. Whenever the Maestro plays Mozart, it strikes me as a significantly different sound than his approach to almost every other composer. I covet that sound but have never been able to achieve anything like it in my own study of Mozart. I would very much appreciate a glimpse into what Maestro Barenboim does differently in playing Mozart to achieve such a convincing sound. In any case, many thanks.
Mr. Barenboim, l am always ASTONISHED at your incredible technique, your VAST repertoire and your perfect interpretation of so very many composers. I started taking piano lessons art age17+ in England. I was never taught anything about piano technique, although without technique one cannot play much. How do you develop piano technique on your own. (I am a retired neonatologist but l worship the piano...).
Excellent explanation Sir, I am listening your conducted symphony since my school life now I am 48... Thank you once again Sir for the poetic explanation
Estimado Sr. Barenboim, le escribo en castellano tras haberle oído hablar perfectamente el idioma y tras conocer que tienen usted nacionalidad española, israelí y palestina, lo cual es para mí una enorme sorpresa y me produce una inmensa admiración y orgullo. Tiene usted razón, referente a lo confuso que resulta definir lo que es correcto e incorrecto en la música: desesperación o alegría, optimismo o pesimismo… Sin embargo, existen dos fundamentos en el ámbito artístico y psicológico a tener en cuenta: el componente de entretenimiento (esto es, la capacidad de ofrecer al prójimo la posibilidad de olvidar el dolor, los problemas, los bloqueos durante unos minutos para “resetear” la mente) hacia el presente y el futuro y el valor emocional y motivacional de los sentimientos positivos. Por ello, yo me inclino por el “optimismo de entretenimiento”. Como nos explica usted tan amablemente, creo que Mozart también creyó en eso. Aunque por propia supervivencia, es conveniente ser optimista dentro del realismo del dolor humano, porque mártires músicos yo no conozco. Gracias y buen día, Alicia
I don't know why this suddenly brought tears into my eyes, maybe it has something to with the last movement: yes it's never as carefree as it's claimed to be. Such a rare treat to listen to the piano part only. Thank you Maestro!
The Mozart piano concerti are bits of heaven falling to earth, and I think, Maestro Barenboim, you give us the sound most like the heavenly one Mozart intended. I love your keyboard navigation so much! And your evocation of the short orchestral bar in this concerto, preceding the piano melody, as sounding like music “that had already been playing,” reminds me of the Greek tragedians typical introduction to most stories-“In media res,” the Latin translation says-“this story (or music) begins in the middle of things . . .”
Muchas gracias Maestro. Es un honor como Argentino que vivo en Madrid, como los medios reconocen su trayectoria! Buena idea la de sus hijos, de abrir este canal!
Increible, toca con la sabiduría de sus años y con la energía de un joven, me encantan estos videos son cortos pero con mucha sustancia, gracias maestro
Sir, your informations on the classical era pieces are really wonderful. I'm your die hard fan sir. Love you so much... I always watch your moonlight sonata on piano, you have killed many of the hearts by your unimaginable talent on piano. Thank you so much sir...😍😍💐💐💐
I have several recordings of Mozart's music, but this piece is not on any of them so this is the first time I have heard any of it. Will have to search around to get a performance of it. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
@@aliarmani8905 This piano is a modern instrument based on one of the original piano types, known as a Tangential Piano, the bass strings ran straight down the long side of the instrument and didn't, as in the 'Barenboim, cross over other strings, this arrangement, among other properties induces less resonance and reverberation, giving a lighter, clearer, crisper sound.
Es un placer escuchar sus interpretaciones y pensamientos sobre el piano, su instrumento, pero con la perspectiva del gran director de orquesta que Ud. sin duda es. Un lujo
Thank you Maestro for your master classes ! I love your videos!! I wish I had a music teacher like you when I was young, I would have learned so much more about music... Mozart is my favourite and thanks to you I am still learning👍😉
Very glad to see you have this You Tube channel. I've been a fan of yours since I was a teenager, after purchasing your album of Beethoven's piano sonatas, which included the Moonlight sonata. I gave the album to my mother, who was captivated by the music and your masterful playing of these sonatas. I have it now on CD. Also the Klemperer collaboration--the five piano concertos, still nothing better recorded since, especially with the John Aldis choir in the 5th, which I think is the counterpart for the 9th Symphony Ode to Joy. I will tune in every time I need to get away from the stress of everyday life, and relax.
muchas gracias maestro. Seria possible de hacer videos de 20 minutos? porque en 5 minutos no da mucho tiempo de enterder todo... pero muchas gracias !!
Thank you for this video essay. The light cadence of the piece is something anyone would note throughout the Mozart repertoire and one would not know he was at the end of his life in this composition.
Excelente !!! muchas felicitaciones !!!! Saludos desde México, Los grandes maestros de la música gracias a Dios no tenían redes sociables sino nos hubiésemos perdido de su obra !!!
Most inspiring. Thank you, Maestro Barenboim, for your insights into the genius of Mozart's final piano concerto. Very interesting & poignant thoughts on the biographies of Mozart and Beethoven.
Wonderful introduction to this masterpiece. Thank you maestro. For Beethovens 2. Symphony, I used it to ride with bicycle a hill upwards. So much joyful energy...
Did Mozart know he was close to death when he wrote this piece? As Barenboim notes, we can't know for sure. But one cannot fail to note that K. 595 is certainly the most wistful of his piano concerti. Particularly the slow movement, alongside that of the clarinet concerto, is one of the most heart-rending pieces of music Mozart ever wrote. Many have spoken of the "tear behind the smile" element in much of Mozart's music, but I find that element to be absolutely drenched all over this piece. Someone who really brings it out, and who has been criticized for misreading the time signature of the slow movement, is Schnabel in his wonderful interpretation. Does he play it too slowly? You can only play something too slowly if you fail to justify it, and boy does Schnabel justify it. If you haven't listened to it, you must, I'm sure it's somewhere on RUclips.
Thanks for recommending the Schnabel recording... I just listened to it and think the slow movement is beautifully played. Alicia de Larrocha has a beautiful recording too (on vinyl). The final measures of the third movement have utter loneliness in them.
Wonderful and insightful as always. For someone without musical training this elevates listening ability and reward. I'd like to see something on Satie's Gnossiennes
Muitas bênçãos pro senhor, minha alma repleta-se de prazer ao apreciar seu belíssimo trabalho. Um alimento da melhor qualidade é o que a sua arte proporciona. Meu espírito voa alto ao te ouvir. Gratidão eternidade afora.
Thank you, absolutely love this piece, always reminds me of my brother when he used to play it!! And he sent me your Complete Piano Sonatas and Variations, which is just stunning 🥰😇 Having sung Mozart's Requiem and Mass in C Minor I can safely say I'm a Mozart fan! Respect ❤
Thank You so much for all Your videos ! Please, keep adding them ! I have already recommended to discover Your new channel to my musician friends and colleagues...your videos inspire, educate and are a wonderful refreshment to my days. Thank You !
Thank you Daniel, that was lovely. As you said, it’s not clear what the the composer’s emotions were when the wrote their pieces. However, each of the composers have a distinct character that comes through in their compositions. One that I love is the melancholy of Satie, he makes it so beautiful.
Many thanks Maestro for such wonderful insights into a great work. It would be a real joy if you could give us insights into more of Mozart, especially his piano concertos, which are at the summit of artistic greatness.
Bravo! Es un gran honor escucharlo cada vez. Creo que la sinfonia n35 Haffner mov1 de Mozart da de que hablar. Veo un dialogo entre un humano jugando con una liebre y conocer su vision me llena de curiosidad. Gracias por tanto !
Merci infiniment Monsieur Barenboim pour ces petits instants partagés avec nous. Pourriez-vous consacrer l'un d'eux au tempo? Les interprêtes prennent souvent beaucoup de liberté avec celui-ci, pas toujours à bon escient... Charlotte

through these notes seems like the spirit of the Master was looking at life with a tender smile.
