_I have torn out my last few strains of hair trying to find the name and full cover of this piece. Every since hearing Elizabeth attempt to play it in the “Rosings” scene in the 1995 Pride & Prejudice mini series, I’ve been on a four month mission and Finally‼️Call it perseverance or crazy obsession - I had to find it. Thank you for posting_
made a bet on how far i can scroll till i find a pride and prejudice comment and turns it its literally the first comment
I just love this. There r so many YT vids of the most excellent pianists playing this piece but this is the one I always listen to. Definitely my fave Beethoven piece, so happy, light and cheerful. And also, Pride & Prejudice.
yes! now, THAT took my breath away! That's how Beethoven would have wanted it played. That's what he felt for her. Yes.
Another marvellous performance by Wolfgang Manz. This time Beethoven's Andante favori in F major. Enjoy!
pure brilliance
Absolutely marvelous! I met and heard him in Lleida years ago. Great artist!
excellent interpretation - very well done. I myself play on a 1923 Blüthner....
Wirklich einfühlsam und wunderbar gespielt! Danke für diese großartige Aufnahme!
... o let me hope that your heart will be long - and for me will hit - mine can only - stop beating - if it no longer beats ”. [22] During this time Beethoven wrote the song An der Hope op. 32 [23] for her as well as a lyrical minuet, theAndante favori WoO 57
Oh man, that was awesome! I absolutely loved it. Played the best I've ever heard. Thanks for sharing.
Beautifully and playfully executed .
Magnificent
You can really see the keys shifting quite frequently, I've never seen someone use the left pedal that much. Seems like many performers don't use it at all.
Fun Fact: Back in Beethoven's day (when pianos were still relatively new), pianos did not sustain the notes as long as they do now, so modern performers must let go of the sustain pedal more frequently (and somewhat inorganically) just to replicate the sound of what the composers originally meant. The first movement of the Moonlight Sonata, for example, calls for the sustain pedal to be depressed during the entire performance, without ever lifting it. Of course today, you must frequently alternate between depressing it and not depressing it when playing it. You can find videos on youtube of replica pianos from the late 1700s/early 1800s if you're curious what they sound like. Like Harpsichords (which preceded them), early pianos did not even have sustain pedals, which is why pieces written for the instrument by earlier composers like Bach and Mozart, do not have any sustained notes. Beethoven was the one who popularized its use (an excellent decision to say the least).
Almost all world class performers use the soft pedal a lot but it so subtle that it's sometimes not very obvious
@@Melody_Hunter That might be the case or it could have been a general instruction to pedal but the pianist had the discretion to vary according to his wishes and effectiveness.
Music was "in the moment" and "live", not unlike some more recent eras of music.
So very beautiful. Soothes my soul. 💜
Lovely!
real ones heard it from Pride and Prejudice 😉
p.s
my P&P book has been ordered and im waiting for it to arrive😘
Great performance
Sounds like Josephine, immortal love?
Splendid. That’s all :)
beautiful!
Ingen spiller denne så vidunderligr som du
Lovely performance. I would dearly love to hear a modern Bechstein which has been voiced to be more mellow. The same goes for modern Bluthners. I've played many older instruments of these two brands and have found them more musical and inspiring. That said, I can hear that the new offerings share the same DNA. Please voice just one instrument to be softer - upload a video and you may find that the public give a hugely positive response!
I think a lot may have to do with the acoustics of the room and the recording technique.
I agree and really am not a fan of the newer C Bechsteins unfortunately. The older ones I remember, back in the 80s, were mellow, round, but not so bright and powerful but poetically musical. I thought they were some of the most elegant pianos and when I hear the older ones, I think the same. I don't know about Blüthner, but these new Bechsteins sound almost harsh to my ears. Overly amplified. I think I hear that characteristic beauty somewhere in the sound, but they need to be voiced down quite a bit.
BELISSIMO!!!!
Hight level
Beethoven doit se jouer plus lentement, pour déguster chaque notes qui sont pleinnes d' émotions, de subtilités, d' harmonies, d' humanisme. Pas beaucoup d' interprètes comprennent qui était Beethoven...
