Mozart's Fantasy KV 475 - His DARKEST Masterpiece? (Live Performance + Score & Commentary)

Today, I present you a live performance with commentary of Mozart's Fantasy in C minor, KV 475. Composed in 1785, this piece definitely stands out as one of the most mysterious and rather dark compositions, with unconventional structure and very sudden and strong dramatic contrasts.
We will take a look at harmonic build ups, structural changes and also my own commentary to certain parts described as imagery or sensation.
Edition presented in the video is public domain and from IMSLP.

In fact, in this piece I can hear Chopin, Beethoven, and Schubert.

1:40 Here I can clearly see how Mozart influenced Schubert.

[@henriheuvelmans6495]

Mmm, very strange things happening from bar 167 in this performance... Why halving the tempo suddenly from there?

[@PianoTechSupport]
