Beethoven wrote this wonder not only completely deaf but under great physical pain, several serious health conditions and a lot of personal and financial trouble. Simply unbelievable.
I used to have the LP box set of Ashkenazy’s performances of the piano concertos. I played those albums over and over. His Beethoven interpretation is one of the best of all time.
Beethoven creates a masterpiece here by violating almost every convention of the sonata form: a tempestuous second movement, movements in disproportion with each other, a third movement of thema and variations which sounds as if it could stand on its own...And yet for all this (or because of this), it is one of the most beautiful sonatas ever written.
@@veronicaibanez4177 it is truly beautiful. The main theme is composed like a Bach chorale. And the variations with the return of the original theme resembles the structure of Bach’s Goldberg Variations. The more I listen to this sonata, the more I hear Bach’s influence.
First time i heard this sonata played with so much passion ! Vladimir Ashkenazy had so great TECHNIC, but still, it's not his (virtuosity) that he show in this interpretation, He simply showed what Beethoven (SURELY) Wanted ! Emotion, Surpise, Sens of the phrase .... Contrast ... So much Voice crossing each other ... Nuances, Voices, Melody, Emotion, etc ... Are where they should be ! I really really enjoy how he respect Beethoven ! He didn't put too much (EXTREM ROMANTISM) We completely feel the (period)... I don't know ... It's as if i can imagine easily a Piano Forte when he play ... BRAVO !!!!!!!!!

Today, listeing the non sense provocations of Putin, I remain astonished of the fact he says we hate Russia! I don't hate no one and I can say I always loved Russia, certanly not people like him, but you can unfortunately find a lot of them in all world. I love Ashkenazy...

Thanks for the context.
Interpretazione magnifica maestro..complimenti

This performance of the last 5 Beethoven sonatas is truly an unique achievement .

This is THE most beautiful sonata ever written.
The last movement is one of my favorite pieces of music.

Superb- such clarity and control, even in the most difficult passages.
I am very moved by this magnificent live performance.
I felt like I was in a different world... sentimental playing brought tears in my eyes. Beautiful!!!! I wish I was there during the LIVE performance.
You were in a different world.

와우! 브라보!! 여러 피아니스트들 베토벤30번 연주중에 딱 제가 원하는대로 쳐주셨어요♡♡ 넘넘 좋았어요ㅠ.ㅠ
That climax beginning at 17.20 seems to be the ball-buster of all time
Awesome
Difficult to explain what is absolute great art, however this music by its excellent execution helps to do it
この曲、最初に聞いたときは何も感じなかったけど
今は何故か三楽章を何度も聴きたくなってくる。
出だしの寂し気な旋律から次々と変化していく感じがとても
心が揺さぶられます。
この人の演奏方法なのかもしれないけど、一音一音しっかりと噛み締めるような感じがします。
ベートーヴェンは耳が悪かったので音に対する感情が他の作曲家とは少し違うのかな。
Legendary pianist!
che dire ... meraviglioso
18:38 Tema da capo.
CONGRATULATIONS
what does this refer to? is this like a movie quote?
Where is the pianist now with the mastery, seriousness and integrity of Ashkenazy?

Symphonic power, like Richter and Gilels. Peerless Technique at the service of his musicality.
Well actually he was not completely deaf it is known he most likely suffered gradually declining hearing over his later life
Ma come fanno questi pianisti a non sbagliare mai una nota... ma forse ogni tanto sbagliano solo che non riusciamo ad accorgercene.

03:32 is ripped off from "Moonlight Sonata." What a clown.
this was written before mooonlight sonate idiot
Not to mention it's written by the same composer. He wouldnt rip off his own work
@@samaritan29 this was written AFTER the moonlight sonata was written. LOL
So funny! Reading these replies.😂
@@lindawood5568 the irony of calling someone an idiot because of a lack of historical knowledge while getting historical facts wrong.
