I might cry in public.
I'll be hearing Andras Schiff play this live.

[@professordeportugadoyt113]

So, how was it?

[@hellomate639]

professor de portuga do YT It was fucking awesome.
He played the Aria from the Goldberg Variations at the end, and when he said he would play that, the audience exploded in applause.

Wonderful rendition of this wonderful Sonata ~ thank you (also for the score)

This is why Beethoven was said to have bridged the Classical and Romantic Period of music.

[@die_schlechtere_Milch]

This music is so close to live.

[@zioscozio]

If you got here to listen to the exam piece for the Fundamentals of music theory MOOC, the piece starts at 6:09 and ends at 11:11. Good luck!

0:00 to 20:09 - One of the most amazing moments in music, and one of the truest interpretations.

Thank you very much!

Thank you for posting Schnabel's recording. Having the score really makes a difference. But precisely, it is a pity because many pages are cut, which makes it difficult to follow the sonata. Perhaps you could rescan them? I know it would be painstaking, because you took so much care to synchronize page-turning with the rendition...
