Wonderful upload, Miguel Fontes Meira. I pounded your thumbs up symbol on your creation. Carry on the fantastic work. Looking forward to see your next one from you.
They used a lot of shorthand (especially when sketching for themselves); It was basically like cursive to them. Then professional copiers would make more professional copies for publication.
@user-ze5on6bn4v I regret that Haydn is not more appreciated as he really deserves. I really admire much of his music. Nevertheless, I just can't imagine that someone can love his music more than Mozart's one.
@@karoldettlaff5345 It’s quite easy actually in terms of piano sonatas, an area which generally-speaking, Mozart did not pour his greatest musical thoughts. Of Mozart’s 17 piano sonatas, I would suggest that just K330, K333, K457, are great Classical piano sonatas; a further six are better than the remaining eight (though all are invariably lovely). Whilst of Haydn’s 52 sonatas, excluding the early sonatas intended for students, and some deliberately written in an easy popular style to generate good sales (Hob. XVI: 35-39*), Haydn’s number of great sonatas is higher than that of Mozart, and certainly with the last three (Hob. XVI:50-52) we are in Beethoven territory in terms of the music as Haydn was writing big works for performances in public concert halls in London to be played on some of the biggest pianos of the age, utilising a new more modern piano technique (octave passages in the left hand with thirds for example, and specific instructions to use the new foot - not knee - pedals). If you enjoyed this c minor sonata of 1771 (Hob. XVI:20), I suggest you try the A flat sonata of 1768 (Hob. XVI:46) as a next step; the E flat sonata of 1790 (Hob. XVI:49) has also become very popular as well and contains an astonishing b flat minor section** in the slow movement unlike anything written by Mozart (and is actually closer to Schubert in sonority. There are other Haydn sonatas I would add to this list of very fine works, but the main point is that it *is* possible to imagine someone loving Haydn’s sonatas above those of Mozart, though in truth, when speaking about composers of this stature, it’s actually like comparing red and blue and pretty pointless. PS: Both Mozart and Haydn wrote some miscellaneous piano works besides the piano sonatas that are undisputed masterpieces - for example: Mozart Fantasia in c minor K475 Rondo in a minor K511 Adagio in b minor K540 Haydn Fantasia in C Hob. XVII:4 Andante con variazioni in f minor Hob. XVII:6 Hope that’s useful to yourself, and anyone else passing by. * Haydn having withheld this fine c minor sonata for nearly a decade made up this quite empty and rococo set to the normal six by adding this work which is one of the greatest piano sonatas of the 18th century Classical period. ** Lestat’s theme from Interview with the Vampire.
Grande Haydn! Bellissima sonata adatta ad allontanare pensieri tristi e a cominciare bene la giornata. Grazie ❤

Insanely beautiful...!
The first is poetry. ❤
Incredible pianist... And never heard of her...
Well, this is the appropriate world for that.
what an incredible pianist
Yes I see the Alps before me, around me. What fitting title.
It is the surname of the pianist 😅
Quel toucher ! 🎶🎶🎶🎶☀️
Immer leiser wird mein Schlummer...
why does all of Haydn feel like an intermezzo between two epic parts, that never come
Like Human Life itself.

Merci
Hadyn didn't have music notation software, I imagine it cumbersome to do it by hand
That is why I never composed when I was younger. I was too lazy to write everything down and I couldn't understand how these guys could do it!

It bothers me when people just completely disregard the score in Haydn. He is like Beethoven especially in the middle/later sonatas.

As perfect is Apassionata
Sorry, but IMO 1.25x play-speed works better for this first movement
