- philbestmusic.... Phil Best plays the 1st movement of the wonderful Mozart K310 sonata in A minor, full of Sturm und Drang, with its driving rhythmic figures and contrasting dynamics. The 1795 Dohnal piano from Pianoteq's Kremsegg collection gives even more drama and energy to this exciting, powerful piece. Videos of the other 2 movements are also available:
2nd movement - • The 2nd movement of So...
3rd movement - • Mozart K310 Finale on ...
I love the thunderous sound of the fortes in the 2nd half! Such a wonderful piano!
I know; there's a real sense of pummeling!
Besides the beautiful playing, the sound was so right to my ears. I must have this piano collection 😊 And thank you for sharing your talent. You are inspiring.
Thank you! Much appreciated!
I love this sonata, you played it very well and the piano here sounds gorgeous, thank you!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
Respect! Excellent.
Thanks!
Superb performance ... thanks!
Thanks! I'm pleased you enjoyed it!
This is such a treat. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lovely rendition! I feel like classical music performance stopped with most kinds of experimentation in the middle of the 20th century... What a beauty it would be if more people in the classical music world were embracing new music production technology and experimenting with it.
Thank you so much! I just love how technology gives me access to virtual pianos when the real versions are not available.
@@PhilBestMusicIf and when my channel is starts generating revenue, I'll invest in some quality vsts. I know I'm gonna have a blast with pianoteq when I buy it.
Ah...you're making this whole thing up!
What do you mean?
@@PhilBestMusic Just messing with you 😜
Oh OK! I just didn't pick up any friendly tone, so I thought you were being derisory! You know how disrespectful people can be on social media...
I applaud Pianoteq (and also Yamaha latetly) for adding historical piano voices. The next problem is the weighted keys, travelling at least 1cm. 18th century pianos had absolutely no lead in the keys, and the keys had practically no weight. Inertia of the modern piano keys and late romantic or modern playing technique lead to a totally different result. Please take a day playing on an early Stein fortepiano. Or a harpsichord. After the initial shock, if the instrument survives the first sessions, you will have learned more than after a year with any preset. Pesonally, I'm still in search of my ideal digital piano setup. It's very difficult to find for the above reasons.
Very true! Every keyboard instrument family feels different to play physically, with significant variations among individuals. Weights, speed and "feel" of the action, surface textures and even key sizes can vary so much! Inevitably, we must compromise using a digital setup. Interestingly enough, I just bought a 61 key keyboard with a lighter action to provide a different physical playing experience that suits certain instruments a little better (still far from a match, of course); and also, it's way more portable!
Absolutely true. I’m probably moving away from my Yamaha CLP-675 to a lighter key action myself. While the sound is good, I feel I’m bogged down too much by those heavy keys. And on a digital instrument, there is no need to imitate a concert grand. We are free to experiment with way lighter actions, closer to those on the historical pianos.
I love Roland's solid PHA-50 action but definitely, it's good to experiment!
Is the Dohnal the best historical piano on pianoteq?
The best? I don't think so - they're all great. It might be my personal favourite though!
Hehe... That New Video Filter :)
What about it?
@@PhilBestMusic I Like The New Video Filter :)
Oh good! I'm always trying little changes!
What keyboard and studio monitors are you using?
In this video, it's a Roland HP605 with M Audio BX8 monitors.
Hi, this video recording sound is from your room mic or direct record into pianoteq software?
Very wonderful play.
Thanks! It's the internal Pianoteq sound (no mic).
@@PhilBestMusic Thank you.
Crikey!!!!
:-)
Dynamic range is...tiny.
Yes, that's what I said. But the timbres create a dynamic feel.
You can increase dynamic range on pianoteq
For my ears the Werkmeister 3 temperament sounds horribly out of tune in some parts
-Michael
Oh really! I like it!
@@PhilBestMusic I understand that such non equal temperaments can be "based" on different notes and provide very different results. It might be interesting to try some base notes. In this example most parts to me seem especially "soft", while others seem rather extremely "harsh".
OK...
