Beethoven's late Bagatelles (op 119/126) are in fact not trifles to be dismissed; they are seeds. As the mature tree creates acorns, pine cones, seeds etc, and these drop to the ground, these contain the DNA for future works. Dismissed as 'chips from the master's workshop' they should instead be re-heard as miniature masterpieces, each of which could be developed further... perhaps only by a Beethoven. Schnabel provides a classic interpretation.
As an adult business major in college I took up beginning piano at a local music conservatory and loved working on the Bagatelles. Hearing this particular one again brings back a flood of memories.
While the bagatelles op.33 are approachable by amateur pianists, the bagatelles op. 126 seem very difficult to play. They are almost completely form free in structure, rythm, key changes, etc, just about anything. And they require a deep understanding of music.
One of the very best Beethoven players ever.
For many years I've "tried" to play these, so they have a special place in my heart, especially op 33 #6 and op. 126 #5 - those always "get" to me.
What a nice and gorgeous compilation of all of the bagatelles with the opus number!!
i had a piano teacher who made me learn some of these when I was a child.
Indeed a Wonderful place to start! ✨
Nice
I was eating dirt as a child

00:00 sounds like Schubert's 2nd Klavierstücke.
Schubert 2nd Klavierstücke is wrote before Beethoven Bagatelle.
@@Cayres18 Schubert's Klavierstücke D946 were written in 1828, Beethoven's op. 33 in 1801-02
