    Mozart's piano concerti present a truly unique experience that is very hard to capture, let alone describe.

    So many people mention the exuberance of this concerto, but certain moments touch my heart in an aching way, such as the F minor and B flat minor passages in the first movement.

    Mitsuko Uchida is really feeling the spirit, breathing Mozart - he would be so proud on her - great and marvelous work!
    Mozart wrote it for Maria Theresia von Paradis - (another forgotten Wunderkind in the times of Mozart, she wrote and played blind), currently related in the Austrian movie: "Light" in German: "Licht"
    Mozart came to Vienna because it was 250 years ago one of the most liberal cities in the world: nearly no press censorship, also former enemies such as Turks who laid siege to Vienna were highly praised musically by Mozart and emperor Joseph II: e.g. "Entführung aus dem Serail" plays in Turkey and "Rondo alla Turca" knows every Turk, still even today.
    Mitsuko Uchida lived in her youth in Vienna to study music and Piano and this in unbelievable perfection..
    Seems Vienna is a special city and magnet for this kind of music hence I'm proud to live in this remarkable city!

    I have loved Uchida's Mozart since I heard her play the 8th piano sonata in D major. She understands the playfulness and is never boring or mechanical.

    20:22 to the end of 2nd movement transports us into a different realm. The harmonies are otherworldly. Mozart most have been in a trance visiting a different dimension when he penned this part.

    Beautiful! I read that Mozart composed this piano concerto specifically for Maria Theresia Paradis, a blind pianist who was treated for a time by Franz Anton Mesmer. Ms. Paradis played this concerto before Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette in Paris in 1784. (info from the book Hypnotism A History by Derek Forrest)

    Just listened to this on the period instruments. I am persuaded that something can be better than it was originally conceived to be, ala the beautiful later model concert grand pianos. And larger orchestras, oh well, how can you complain about what is divine? I only hope that Wolferl can hear these sometimes where he is and feel our appreciation for his work. Thanks

    • @qwertyuiop-ke7fs

      What bothers me sometimes is the increase in orchestra size and the slowness of the tempos. Particularly #20, where everybody seems to ignore the fact that the first movement is denoted "allegro".

    Herbert B. Locksley, M.D. I am a great admirer of Perahia, Kissim and others of the modern pianists, but I believe the greatest depth of understanding of Mozart belongs to Mitsuko Uchida

    Discrepo infinitamente contigo Jacinto. Te recomiendo leer la biografía de Mozart, que aonda en su persona, vida y obra: La de Alfred Einstein (mismo apellido que el gran fisico, si) o la de hildesheimer que es estupenda. Si te gusta Mozart, hazle justicia y lee un poco sobre el. Lo digo con todo aprecio y critica constructiva.

    Se nota por la música que el compositor tenía altibajos anímicos. El segundo movimiento se nota que está con ánimo depresivo. Pero su música es muy equilibrada y espiritual según mi punto de vista. Llama la atención que el personaje real fuera bastante inmaduro y poco realista en otras facetas de su vida. No era consciente del todo de dónde le salía su inspiración.

    • @lymanmj
      @lymanmj 5 лет назад

      No creo que Mozart estuviera muy deprimido. Creo que estaba desilusionado con la inteligencia mediocre de muchos de sus superiores sociales, y muy decepcionado por el hecho de que tanta gente no reconociera su genio incandescente.

      @@StanObirek Allegro vivace indicates that it should be fairly fast (lively Allegro) but I agree that the pace is right. Gabriel's comment is subjective and open to question.
