All ppl who say a piece is played too slow or too fast. It always depends on the interpretation. Some ppl say Mondlightsonata 1 mvt should be slow. It's just one point of view which cannot be generalised.
Barenboim manages a good brisk tempo for the 1st Movt. first theme, but slows down ever so slightly for the second, and the final section is slightly slower again. It needs a brisk tempo IMO to sound like Beethoven and not Clementi. See my comment on Schnabel's performance ruclips.net/video/h9lqIlEU8M8/видео.html; I like Barenboim's tempo even better than Schnabel's. The second theme is the key: it must not sound rushed. When playing the opening movement of the Moonlight Sonata, I always bear in mind it's in cut time, so "Adagio Sostenuto" is perhaps not as slow as it would be in 4/4 (or 12/8). I have to force myself to keep it moving.
Everybody in the comments slamming this piece for being “simplistic” and “too easy” when Mozart didn’t write anything much more difficult to play, and yet no one smacks him down.
Not matter how many years those composers passed away or whatever that is in trend now, old classical pieces together with good playing like this are still awesome.
Playing the second movement of this piece (played the first last year) and this video gave me a lot of ideas for my own playing! Thanks for uploading :)
Learning a piece and learning to play it correctly are two very different things. Take that into consideration before you post a comment saying how easy this song is.
@@clairew730 Opus 49 No 2 is easy in every respect; it is a trivial, empty, and facile sonata that has a superficial charm to it but little else. Opus 49 is almost universally specifically excluded from the audition or competition pieces of every reputable musical establishment in the world as it requires only a basic technical ability and is almost impossible demonstrate any interpretive musicality in performance. Opus 49 No 1 is better than Opus 49 No 2 which is arguably the most vapid and uncharacteristic piece of music Beethoven ever wrote; both sonatas were condemned by Beethoven unequivocally, and he was furious when his brother sold them to a publisher behind his back saying they were ‘…unworthy of my name’ amongst other things.
Dear MusicClassical1, Beethoven's Op 49 Nos I and 2, have only two movements (each). The pianist is not playing "Op 49 No 2, 1st and 2nd Mov.," but the entire sonata No 20, which only has two movements. Do you understand? Compared with some of the comments on this post, I wonder.
Love this! I just watched 10 youtube videos in a row posted by parents proud of their 7 or 5 year olds for playing this song but they were all varying degrees of awful. Finally I found a good version (I also enjoyed Annie Fischer's version, but there wasn't a video for it). This is really excellent, thank you.
Sound Effects You need a very good teacher to make much of either of these two works, though neither in truth are worth much time spent on study. Opus 49 No 2 in particular is really not worth the effort - it is technically very simple, and musically superficial, though the second movement* is quite attractive: actually for Beethoven, the whole sonata is uncharacteristically vapid. Mozart’s K545 and Beethoven’s Opus 49 No 2 are, each case, the most simplistic, banal, and empty sonata by each composer - ie their worst. That said, Mozart’s K545 has slightly more about it than Beethoven’s Opus 49 No 2. * When Beethoven re-used the Tempo di Menuetto in his Septet a little later, it is an absolute delight.
Barenboim is always the best. Interesting idea for all of you who play this piece: when I play the Tempo di Menuetto Movement, I play it a tad faster and the left hand (for the rondo) is staccato. Afterall, Beethoven never specified legato or staccato to the left hand. Just plain notes. So take the risk play the second Mvt. like a German Dance, as opposed to the common legato struck Italian waltz. -Best of luck
I agree, I feel disadvantaged that no one in my family are musicians, except for a few guitarists. But i would have truly appreciated being exposed and taught at a younger age, making my musicianship be developed at a faster rate.
southwestguy223 Well my family had 5 musicians but i they wasnt alive or at an very advanced age to teach that complex instrument to a child. So wath i did: Searched for electric keyboard teachers. After achieving and feeling sure about myself, i searched for piano masters gratuated from the main conservatory of my country(found just 1 at that time). Imagine that i practiced and continue practising from 1 to 4 hours with simple pieces to the hardest ones of my repertory. I can tell that the teacher only helps if you practice, otherwelse, you will lose money and time. I am still learning with Hanon 60 exercises, Czerny Stuff, Valses from F. Chopin, etc. And you know how good you are and wath you can play knowing your level. Thats all, the rest is you and your piano. If you have solving problems, a body disease or psychological damage. Dont atempt to play or learn a musical instrument, it will increase depression and repultion with yourself or may you could reflex uncontiously wath are you feeling(neighborhoods must not know how are you feeling) . I encourage you to do wath you love but dont force yourself if you know something is limiting you. Take care.
@southwestguy223 I don't think children develop musicianship at a faster rate. Maybe some but there are also MANY, who were forced into it and don't really enjoy playing it. I think it's more about the love for the instrument.
I don't think southwestguy is saying that children necessarily develop "musicianship" more quickly than someone older, but that since he was not exposed to it nor used his free time as a child to pursue an instrument, it makes it more difficult to learn as an adult.
To truly master this piece could take years - all those little children playing this are clearly not aware of the emotional depth which they simply cannot display due to their inexperience. Technically speaking this piece might be simple, but there is always more to it than that - nothing I have seen even comes close to this performance.
@@charliezhong1712 Disagree 100% - this is probably the most banal, empty, and pointless piece of music Beethoven ever wrote. Beethoven himself described it as ‘worthless’, ‘unworthy of my name’, and he was very angry when his brother sold it secretly to a publisher, and said that ‘it should not have been published’.
He's goooood! This is so weird, my grandma played this peice, my mom played this peice, my brother played this peice, and now I'M playing this peice!!! It's like a family tradition! Family pianist tradition!!!!!!!!!!!! Px
I'm only playing the second movement, and that's for my grade 5 AMEB exam, (that's the Australian one,) but I don't know what the whole sonata is and it probably varies from country to country
Yes it is !!! in the conservatory it is for grade 2!! after you play 10 pieces of Schuman "Album for the young", 10 pieces of "Ana Magdalena Bach" 5 complete "sonatinas of clementi" , 20 little etudes of Czerny -8 measures- , the complete book of "Microkosmos 1 of Bartok" , Hanon and scales. Some questions? whit me :D
you guys seriously never noticed how any time a hard classical piece gets put on youtube someone inevitably says "Im 16 and learning this now" as some kind of psychogical intimidation? my comments here were a parody of that, which I thought would be obvious given the frequency of said comments.... nope! oh well there's always next time lol
For anyone who needs encouragement: Romans 8:18 “The pain you’ve been feeling can’t compare to the joy that is coming!” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Whatever is going on right now, have faith, your situation will get better. :) Jesus bless anyone reading this and happy new year!!🥰✨💖
Yevgeny Morozov To associate this facile, perfunctory and uncharacteristically vacuous work with the high-water mark of the Classical sonatas of Mozart and Haydn is as nonsensical as it is misleading. Neither is a single note of this trivia reminiscent of anything from the Romantic world of Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Liszt, et al. If you want some context for Opus 49 No 2, it is vaguely reminiscent of the simple sonatinas of Clementi or Kuhlau intended for beginners.
Con tres horas diarias bien estudiadas puedes hacer muchas cosas. Pero si estás dedicado al piano, lo mínimo es 6 u 8 horas, según testimonios de pianistas consagrados como Rubinstein, Kissin, Trifonov, Berezovsky, etc.
+CyprtoTNT No I'm serious. If you look at the other part it's basically similar (when it was transposed from G to C major part). I'm not saying it is the SAME. Thus that's what I said it's BASICALLY a repetition. And I've played this song several times
while i agree with you on the little children part, you have to admit that more difficult pieces express emotion much better than this one. this sonata is known as beethoven's easiest sonata. compare this to pathetique, or moonlight, and it pales in emotional depth. i'm a larger fan of the romantic era, chopin's polonaises, liszt-paganini la campanella etc.
This is the best recording of this piece I’ve listened to. It’s really beautiful. I’m learning it with my piano teacher.
