    I’ve heard this piece played by many pianists however this lady is by far the best. The detail in her playing is exceptional.

    Enjoyed her pacing, the slower tempo pays tribute to the tragic and darker tones of the piece IMHO

      Exquisite phrasing, of course. Not a whiff of a cliché. How dearly the earth has been to have as intellectually and emotionally gifted a musician and as mischievous a human as you on it.

    Women have a completely different touch at the piano. I think the first movement sounds best when played with a soft melancholic and tender touch. This is a great interpretation that doesn’t sound robotic (like many others).

    Thank you Mitsuko Uchida, that's the best. There are so many performances of this movement, but the sensitivity, the touch, and the feel of this performance encapsulates the emotion that this piece deserves. That it was performed at the Royal Albert Hall makes it so so special.

    Awesome, beautiful, and timeless. I agree with all the comments so truly emotive and deep.
    I love Beethoven's Moonlight Piano Sonata no.14 in C# minor Op.27. No.2. Especially that it was named 'Moonlight Sonata' by the German music critic and poet Ludwig Rellstab in 1832, 5 years after Beethoven passed away which was then subjected to severe criticism over the next 10 years before being fully accepted as Beethovens 'Moonlight Sonata'.
    Quite honestly I found the moonlight descriptive to be the perfect context and can see both the sad and/or peaceful meditativeness depending on personal disposition. I experience and love both of these emotions for this piece. I also think it could be a love song of pain for his student the Countess Giulietta Guicciardi, to which Beethoven dedicated the piece, as there is the feedback that he was taken in by her beauty but it is possible that 'she was not available' at that time.
    Here is my visual interpretation of Beethoven's Moonlight Piano Sonata no.14 in C# minor Op.27. No.2. I only wish I could have been at this live performance with Pianist Mitsuko Uchida in 2020. @sGmI

      There are a lot of people who know only this movement and think it's the entire piece.
      My problem is with the piece being labeled "Moonlight Sonata" with no reference to the fact that it is only one part of the sonata.

    Too fast! So many people play this too fast! It's supposed to be Moonlight and clouds gently passing by in the night sky, with just the sound of a church bell marking 11pm (listen to the bass from around 2:18 and from about 5:00) and by the time it ends, Midnight, hence the 11 bass bongs and other bell discordant 'bongs'. Beeee the Moonlight!
