LECTURE NOTE: This sonata is in 2 movements-Haydn's model. Haydn has many 2-movement piano sonatas. Whereas Mozart has none. They are all in 3 movements. Although there are 2-movement Mozart violin sonatas. --------------1st movt: sonata-allegro--------------- 1. @6:51 Beethoven "can't learn a thing from Haydn"~😇 2. @8:34 peculiar G minor: the only Gm piano sonata by Beethoven. There's one for cello & piano, Op.5, No.2 3. starts with an upbeat 4. @10:54 Haydn is always building from little cells. Beethoven here is bringing something new: more horizontal style, several-bar long legato phrases. Haydn and Mozart are much more pragmatic: short slurs maximum a bar long or shorter. Slurs are more often composed for string instruments it's very important when interpreting Haydn or Mozart to observe these slurs: you can always play a Mozart slur on one bow 5. @12:56 a little epilogue 6. @13:20 in development section we get the first forte. Don't make an 🐘 out of little 🐦 7. @14: 40 when Beethoven uses unison, it has a rhetorical/speaking element to emphasize something 8. @17:39 even in this light little sonata there are very daring chromatic steps and dissonances 9. @17:55 a crescendo then subito piano, typical of Beethoven. There are very few dynamic instructions on these 2 sonatas 10. @18:53 never doing twice the same 11. @19:28 Beethoven writes a counterpoint and puts the theme in the base 12. @20:13 coda --------------2nd movt: rondo------------ 13. 6/8 time. Starts with an unusual 4-quaver upbeat 14. @21:50 "Ludwig Van Beethoven"😹 15. @24:54 a false return in minor, like a quotation, then back to the major 16. @26:42 fermata: so you'd expect a cadenza like in a piano concert. But Beethoven just ends it modestly 17. @27:10 a Swiss/Austrian yodel
I suppose op 49 n 1 was like my debut when i was 11, in front of maybe 1-2000, ie the massive school and their parents and friends. hmmm those were good days!
Molto bello. Schiff parla un inglese estremamente comprensibile per tutti. Invece nei sottotitoli in italiano, Waldstein diventa "Gallese" e l'Appassionata "Apache"!!!

Absolutely amazing!! What a great musician!!
Maravilloso análisis y explicación por parte de un gran interprete, músico y maestro. Gracias por compartir!
I never liked "talking" music before. But this is something else....
The only sonata that i can play, accessible to my pianistic skills.
Well, i do my best. :-) ;-)
Check out the 25th sonata
Yes, you're right and the middle movement is really beautiful. :-)
Superb
he teaches us how to play the song and i hope he will be success!!!
I suppose op 49 n 1 was like my debut when i was 11, in front of maybe 1-2000, ie the massive school and their parents and friends. hmmm those were good days!
Schiff's playing especially in the final movement is such a genius I think...
