Marnie's Bio:
Canadian pianist Marnie Laird, praised as "…a technically immaculate, probing and authoritative protagonist" (The Miami Herald), enjoys an active career as a collaborative pianist, chamber musician, and soloist. Prior to founding Brooklyn Duo and Brooklyn Classical, Marnie spent three years as principal pianist of the New World Symphony in Miami under the direction of Michael Tilson Thomas. In high demand as a pianist in New York City, she worked with several opera companies, including the Gotham Chamber Opera, and was also on staff as a collaborative pianist at The Juilliard School after graduating. Recent performances have taken her to Weill Hall at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and Merkin Hall, where her performance with cellist Matthew Zalkind for the Concert Artists Guild competition was broadcast live on WFMT radio.
Originally from Vancouver, BC, Marnie has been the recipient of numerous Canadian awards, including top prizes from the Canadian Music Competitions, Canadian Music Teachers' Association, and the BC Arts Council. Most notably she was awarded the Gold Medal for the highest mark in Canada on the A.R.C.T. piano performance exams. She made her solo orchestral debut at age 13 with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, and has participated in the Tanglewood, Music Academy of the West, Kneisel Hall, and Banff summer festivals.
Marnie received her Master’s degree in collaborative piano from The Juilliard School, where she was the recipient of a full scholarship as well as the Orchestral Piano Fellowship. She also has a Master’s in solo piano performance from The University of British Columbia. Her principal teachers include Lorraine Ambrose, Robin Wood, Jane Coop, Jonathan Feldman, and Margo Garrett.

Fast and heavy fingers! The best version Ive found in youtube. Congratulations!
Unbelievable... just unbelivable. I'm awestruck
The listeners heart will drop several times throughout this performance. What a demonstration of mastery of understanding Beethoven's dynamics...
Professional pianist is an understatement for this kind of performance. God level
I am a Pianist myself and to be honest, I have been away from the Piano for a long time. I just didn't feel like I was getting any better. And watching this makes me wanna play again and try harder. Thank you for showing your talent to the world and be an inspiration.
Never give up!!!! Sorry for the late reply but how did your practice go? Did it pay off?
KouseiXDTOne Deaf
Ditto that
Take video every month, definitely help noticing the progression
Her superb talent shows in everything she performs. Even when she's playing background to the cello her mastery stands out.
Two Thoughts:
1. You play beautifully!
2. I can't imagine what a nightmare it was getting that piano in that room.
So I was curious on that question too and asked my piano teacher and she said you can take off the wheels on the bottom of most pianos and roll it on its side.
Obviously the house was built around the piano haha
If only I had the problem of how to fit my Steinway into the house :)
That's why you pay to make it someone else's problem
It’s not a nightmare it is a joy to get that piano anywhere for a musician.
Hello everyone and thanks for watching! I've always loved playing this Sonata and I had so much fun working on it again and finally recording it. We just got a pair of new mics for the piano and we're SO excited about the difference in sound. (Listen with headphones to get the full effect!) Let me know in the comments if you'd like to hear me record the other movements too. Hope everyone has a great weekend :) -Marnie
Yas please record the other movements too!! Your piano playing is so flawless!
@Teresa Katalyn That's so nice, thank you! And I definitely dedicated LOTS of hours over the past few months to practising this sucker. ;)
Brooklyn Classical
Yes! Please keep playing! You are the best pianist I've ever heard! 💕 Xxx
Brooklyn Classical for sure you should keep playing, it's amazing!!
Brooklyn Classical please do it! Sounds great!
One of my favourite interpretation! Bravissima!👋👋👋
Thanks!
I have watched this video 50 times in the last two weeks. By far the best I have ever heard the 3rd movement played. No one else even comes close to your speed and style. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
i get back here from time to time. this one is one of the best versions i have ever heard. you can hear every single note distinct and clear... this is so pleasant
Me too!
Stunning. My Grandmother was a well known pianist in Winnipeg, she would have been brought to tears watching this. She passed in 2014 at 91
Lovely to see, hear, and feel the power of your talent. Brings me back to sitting next to my Nana, on the piano bench as a youngster. Thank you, Marnie!
ML&R, from NW Sask☘️
I cant read this while listening
Stunning is the perfect word! WOW. I'm so thankful Marnie can share her gift like this!
Incredible
The thoughtful pauses and ritardandos at precisely the right points were absolutely perfect
I heard zero missed notes and marvelous dynamic changes, as well
The sound quality of the recording was also absolutely excellent
This performance is perfect! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
Breathtaking. I remember being proud when my piano teacher said I nailed the balance between my left and right rands in the first movement, and that was after 10 years of lessons. The pedal work and dynamics in this performance are absolutely insane for a piece that’s so complex.
Beethoven was a genius who revolutionized music and brought it into a new era. He represents the crossroads between the classical and romantic musical eras. While the notes here are relatively simple to play the tempo is grueling and requires hours of practice to coordinate the finger movements with the rapid timing. This is a performance I would show as an example to musicians wanting to master this movement. Magnicficent!
This performance is seriously underrated. The delicate touch is absolutely amazing and the recording quality is superb.
truly
performance underrated.
"underrated" is such an arguably incredibly shockingly unbelievably insulting term to use for this vid
Wow! What a great interpretation of the 3rd! Absolute magic!
Certainly one of if not the best covers of this piece on youtube. Amazing phrasing, velocity control, and a perfect tempo. Excellent.
The intensity and the way she is engrossed is so soothing
This is (in my opinion) EXACTLY how this piece should be played - full of expression and perfect examples of rubato in key moments. I have started re-learning this piece again and when i finally have it mastered i hope it won't be a million miles away from this version. Bravo!
BroadwayPianist Watch Valentina Lisitsas Interpretation :)
The ztreygh I also adore Valentina's interpretation :)
And are we going to hear it sometime?
I agree
Damn, valentina is like wow.... I have a crush on her
You are so worthy of that piano..God bless you
Eli Shem.... Nice beard 👍🏻
And you are so worthy of that beard.
One of the most pulsating pieces in the piano repertoire rendered with stunning clarity. I can't help but imagine it reflecting the crescendo and diminuendo in Beethoven's psyche.
I can’t believe this. I just can’t believe this. How can anybody do something this spectacular even once?
La grinta che usi a suonare questa melodia è stupenda
And THIS is why you got the gold medal for ARCT.... My gosh, you're phenomenal. Love both you guys. :)
Sophia Korz look at Mary poppins sings Pink Floyd
This one of the most accurate tempos I've ever seen played.
Valentina Lisitsa?
I don't like it at this tempo, even if it's the good one, I prefer it a bit slower to appreciate it well
@@bullridermusic2054 I agree with you. Valentina is better.
great, but what about the sound?
@@alex1chang1 nah lisistsa plays like a robot there's zero feeling in any of her playing kempff plays this significantly better
I bed, just like me, when you started listening to this, this wasn’t the “Moonlight Sonata” you expected. I’ve heard this melody before, just didn’t know it’s the Moonlight Sonata as well. Brilliantly played!
Beethoven is the ultimate master of all time, and you are playing the masters music perfectly.
This was an amazing performance. The tempo was a great speed, the dynamics were flawless. Beethoven would have been proud👏
Finally someone who doesn't mess up the score by trying to show off! Best piece I've seen played in a long time. Amazing work!
Marnie you fed my very spirit as you played. Here I am years after your live performance, but the intensity and passion speaks volumes. I would love to watch you live!!
This is the best performance ever recorded of the best piece of music ever written.
Haven't herd this piece with its bass strings sounding properly, since the reccordings of the 60s. This is full and authentic Beethoven, thank you.
Dude she’s insane ... her tempo and feel of this ... amazing
By far the most amazing interpretation and performance of this piece I’ve heard.
Nobody is realizing that the hardest part is the ARM it Hurt SO MUCH After playing the first 100 notes fast i played the piano for 6 years and i can feel the pain
I'm speechless wow just wow .
The tone on that piano is absolutely beautiful!
My first thought was the unsatisfactory tone of the piano. Ideally there should be a sense of untapped richness, of space. This one, though lovely, sounds limited, as though it's trapped in a space.
Yes indeed!
I agree, beautiful tone indeed! It's light and gentle but also super buttery, just exquisite.
Just Steinway and sons
Sounds like it has soundboard problems actually, and too soft of hammers
I've heard many people play this piece and i can safelly say nobody can play it like u its just bloody brilliant
This is still without doubt one of my favorite videos on RUclips.
Still the best.
I cannot not hit the like button on seeing anybody playing 3rd movement! Max respect 🙏🏻

Fantastic! I've always felt this third movement as if Beethoven captured the spirit of Bach
Teacher: you only have ten fingers
Beethoven: I can’t hear you
Aghhhhh THIS! Amazing, been playing since I was 4 (29yrs) rather watch other people play than myself
I'm learning this composition at the moment and I just have to say, this was an incredible performance ❤ You nailed it all the way around and that final was just explosive and fantastic! Good stuff 💪
Probably one of the most expressive versions I’ve ever heard. God damn this is good
I'm astounded by the fact there isn't a scrap of sheet music to be seen that is amazing skill
I CAN PLAY THIS EASILY!!! The video I mean
Hatcx _ 😂😂
best comment
well I CAN PLAY THIS ON MY grand piano...uh, as long as its plugged in and Ive got the internet up and going, paired with my QRS system...i have a Boston/Steinway 6 G piano...is a poor girls Steinway, but still awesome!
and OH...my piano teacher began playing all 3 movements when she was mid teens. she's awesome, gifted!
you got me
Funny!!
the sheer genius of the composers like Beethoven, Mozart, etc.... the complexity ! Yet my favourite all time music (any time, any genre) is the Pachelbel's Canon in D. Something in my brain's neural networks just is calmed... maybe due to the reinforcement of neural networks by huge number of repetitions...yet it was not popular when it was first performed, and only got into the popular mode LONG after.
I watch this every week. 👏🏼
Marnie is a very well educated pianist, with a brillant technique which seems only the purpose to serve the music!
Wow... I never knew she was this amazing... when I first saw their duet videos, she didn’t play anything that was hard, and now I see this... she’s a pro
Beethoven would be so proud of you. Outstanding!
I think this is my favourite of this piece on YT
YOU ARE SO GOOD AT THIS - i have no words
I finished learning all of the notes to this months ago, and I still cannot fathom how one can play it this well. This is the best playthrough of this piece on youtube, hands down!
INSANE skills!!! To play this crazy piece by memory, tells me that you love it. There's never a day where I see a bad performance from this channel.
its muscle memory
Playing this piece from memory is the least difficult part about playing this piece.
I'm thinking about getting a piano and getting back in. I want to learn this one. It'll have to be by memory , like all the classics I played because I can't read music. I play by ear. I figured 1st movement took a year to learn. Probably 2 on this one.
@@Dobiegal
If you can't read sheets, watch Synthesia videos. Much easier than by ear.
Guido Anselmi that is a bad habit
I was listening to it at half speed. Amazing to hear all the notes played so accurately. At normal speed, I get chills because it is so amazing it’s hard to comprehend the level of skill involved. I love this!!!!
BRAVO!!!!! Let no one take your spirit. Amazed on your ear.. Keep moving forward.
Totally love the energy with the jumping hair!!!
Only a MILLION votes. My God. There should be at least 5 MILLION... Back this outstanding performance with at least 4 million more votes.
Votes? What are you on about
@@miles288 I think he means views
More unrecognized talent... This deserves atleast 10 million views
Beautiful touch. Never feels rushed, as many other performances of the 3rd do. My favourite performance of this piece by far.
O
That was very smooth. One of the best I've heard and seen on the youtubes. Not a version where the whole thing is rushed as if they're in a hurry to go to the bathroom or the rice pot is overflowing on the stove. Very enjoyable thank you very much for sharing.
Proof you can be a grand master pianist in jeans and Gilet!! Beautiful .
This is the best “Moonlight Sonata 3rd “ l’ve ever seen
Thanks for such an amazing performance
OMG!! GIRL!! THIS WAS THE FIRST SONG THEY PLAYED IN YOUR LIE IN APRIL!! You are the best!! Teach me your ways 🙏
I admire your incredible talent!! It will take me a lifetime to reach this level!! Fantastic!! And one of the greatest pieces of classical music!!
I am a mexican men, and I like the way you play piano, this song specially is not easy, but you can do excelent, congratulation, Do your best always.
C'est magnifique !! C'est sur le bout des doigts que vous jouez !!! Quel travail !!! Milles bravo ! Vous vivez la musique !!! 🎶🎶🎶
Magnificently masterful. Loved the articulation and the fact that you played the softer more round bits as such. A lot of people tend to smash down those broken chords to get faster and forget that the softness and smooth flowing sound of the piece is really what makes it go to life.
6 minutes of music memorised and played amazingly, how do you even
WAW! I love everything about this! The performance, the production, the piano, the pianist! Utterly fantastic! Just amazing. Really inspiring me to get going with the 3rd mvt! Thank yOU!
Marnie your brilliant!! Beethoven would be proud! 👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻😃
Playing by memory as well... oh sweet lord this is amazing😍‼️
hard to separate Marnie from the music she-it is beautiful - Regal - romantic flawless.
Thank you, Pat D.
WOW! Great job! The recording was clear and finger were on fire. I could listen to this a thousand more times...and maybe I shall.
Without Beethoven and his great performers such as Marnie Laird ,
the classical music world would have been very lonely .
I'll admit I am not the biggest Beethoven fan but your playing of one of the few musical pieces by Beethoven that I like just might make me a Beethoven fan yet.
I have always thought, ever since I was a toddler (classical music was huge in my family grandparents etc), that the moonlight sonata is the most beautifully composed (all movements) piece
This is the best play version of this song imo
beethoven was brilliant
1st and 3mvt of moonlight sonata is truely from heaven
Oh wow! Perfection. What an awesome job playing one of the best piano songs of all time.
Wow... Marnie is my favorite pianist Bar None!!! I love the first and third movement and she is spot on!!!
the best emocional performance of Moonlight Sonata i love it
this piano sounds amazing and so does the pianist
This is one of the best performances I have ever heard of this piece. Very accurate tempo 👏👏
This is the most unique song i ever heard in my life I swear to god
This is one of my favorite movements by Beethoven. Thank so much for an excellent perfomance.
Beethoven would have been so proud of you !!!
Wow. What a beautiful ride...
I can’t imagine why anyone in their right mind would give this a thumbs down. This is thumbs up all the way. I couldn’t have paid for a better performance. Thank you ever so much.
I agree one hundred percent!
More impressive than her quick hands is that she used no sheet for this piece. Amazing memory! Also I love that she is not tired before playing for 5-6 minutes.
Not using sheet , isn't that hard. I mean if you practice a lot (She did for sure) you keep every single note in mind. Nevertheless a really good interpretation Of this piece
Tbh I like playing by ear I’m pretty terrible even though I should be better but I legit can’t read sheet music easily it’s too hard.
I am 16 and have been working on this piece for the past year for my recital that is next week. I can say from experience that the memory is definitely not the most challenging part. The amount of technique used in this piece is astounding and the memory just comes naturally witht the amount of practice needed to perform this piece.
Payton Evans It’s definitely the advanced technique that presents the most difficulty. The muscle memory happens by itself as you practice - you don’t really need to put effort into memorizing a piece for that reason
It takes great technical skill to perform this movement. Like Jethro from the Beverly Hillbillies I only made it to the sixth grade.
So many classical musicians are underpaid for the extreme hours of practising. I thank you for your performance delivered with passion and nuances. Beethoven would be proud.
She did it amazingly, the timing was perfect
I don't know much about being a Pianist but I know what I feel in music and I can just feel her soul in the piece
