    Piano Sonata No. 5 in G major, K.283 (189h)
    arranged for 2 Pianos by Edvard Grieg, E.G. 113, No. 1 (1876-77)
    to John Paulson (1851-1924)
    1. Allegro (0:00)
    2. Andante (5:53)
    3. Presto (11:50)
    Heide Goertz & Tina Margareta Nilssen
    Sonata K.283 was composed when Mozart was in Munich for premiere of "La finta giardiniera", probably as travelling repertoire that might be readily copied for would-be patrons. The six Sonatas K.279-284 were all written in rapid succession, either December 1774 or early 1775. Precise dates are unclear.
    When Grieg added an accompaniment for a second piano to Mozart’s keyboard sonatas, he did it primarily with teaching in mind. It was apparently common practice in the 1880s for teachers to accompany their pupils on a second piano (my own teacher was still perpetuating the custom 80 years on). But the resulting compositions soon found their way into the concert-hall where, according to Grieg, “the whole thing sounded surprisingly good”.
    And so it does today. In trying to “impart to several of Mozart’s sonatas a tonal effect appealing to our modern ears” Grieg left a telling little document or two on just what those late nineteenth-century Norwegian ears expected.

    It might be better to play some of the Grieg additions the first time and then when taking the repeats, put the rest in.

    I didn't realize grieg did so many of them. Probably for him and his wife.

      Grieg arranged only 4 Sonatas, specially for his friend John Paulson. Those might have been Paulson's choices. Who knows.

    It was long overdue that someone realised that the effusions of musical genius were in need of improvement. I'm reminded of that Spanish woman who 'touched-up' the church fresco with hilarious results.

      Me, I'm reminded of the East-European Jewish in-joke about an [very] amateur troupe who staged their version of Hamlet "Yiddishised and improved".
