What a marvelous final movement. In my humble view Beethoven, in the first half of his career, stood out more for excellent adagios and scherzos than for the sonata-form movements. But here he delivers a finale that flows with such spontaneity, and develops with such color. And it rockets all the way into fireworks.
I love the beginning. Despite F being the tonic, the tonic fifth chord is untouched up till beat four and it doesn't even sound like "home" as the tonic should - instead the bass drags us back from f to c which feels, for some reason, the most stable in that passage.
This is felt several times through the first movement. It's as if Beethoven found a way to blur the dominant with the subdominant as if they are occuring simultaneously . . .

I have lots of happy memories of waking up early to rehearse this piece under the trees. Miss those days.
We have a same kind of experience with this quartet
@@zerpaviolin @Silviola824 I envy you both
What do you mean by under the trees?
The cello in this is so lovely and rich - such a full-bodied sound. Major goals for my own playing!

i agree with your view, early beethoven adagios have a kind of innocent warmth that hasn't been replicated
I just love the first melody
Ikr. God's melodies are some of the best ever composed.

well, C is the first chord introduced, that's why it feels like tonic

Why is f major so peaceful and incredible
It seems F Major had this effect for Beethoven
It depends on who is handling the F major.
it is very PASTORAL 😂
Гениально.

This adagio is the little brother of the Hammerklavier's adagio

I think this piece sounds like a proto-Schubert quartet.
First!
