    Neben den anderen Klavierwerken Beethovens ist diese Sonate relativ blass - ich glaube, keiner würde sie mehr spielen, stünde nicht der Name Beethoven darüber. - Macht nichts. Man kann sich Dutzender anderer Werke bedienen, wo auch wirklich Beethoven "drin" ist, wo Beethoven "drauf steht".

    I love that he does that final page full justice. He's REALLY feeling it. When I performed this I seriously had to do breathing techniques to make sure I didn't get carried away, it's just such an incredible passage. I get an image of the theme blasting into orbit in a ball of flame and dying a glorious death, just total jubilant apotheosis. It's so well-earned from a structural standpoint, and when that theme breaks free it's astonishingly moving.

      It’s all here; exquisite beauty, infinite love, exuberant joy, terrible grief, thundering violence, and passionate anger. He was completely inside of his head when he composed this-totally deaf and in constant agony from the illness that was to claim his life within a short time.
      This cauldron of sound gives the listener a heart-wrenching peek into the mind and soul of one of the most famous and beloved composers in all of western music.
      Caution: This particular piece has the power to haunt you forever.

      Well that's why it's called performing art... You have to perform the music without making a monkey out of yourself with silly faces... Very few pianists can achieve that... Ashkenazi is not one of them

      He was dying at the time he wrote it. Or at least he thought he was- liver problems. When he brings back the adagio after the fugue it’s because he honestly thought he was gonna die and not complete the piece. So the second adagio was meant to be the end! But then he started feeling better, hence the glorious return of the fugue and what seems like a heartbeat getting stronger and stronger before the last fugue return! It’s a very biographical piece! I played this for my masters recital and it helped soooo much to think of these things!! I adore Beethoven, always have & always will!! He just…. Hits home!! My heart becomes… gooey…and I so very much understand him!!❤️❤️❤️

      I hope you continue! There is not one of Beethoven's 32 sonatas that doesn't merit repeated listenings. Even the weakest (Opus 49 #2) is a sparkling, if slightly perfunctory, demonstration of Beethoven's mastery of the classical style.

    Excuse me if I use italian language, (it's more easy for my culture!)
    Ashkenazazy é stato un grande interprete, ma in questo video a mio parere Il fraseggio non appare essere corretto perchè usa continuamente dei piani sonori che l'autore stesso all'epoca storica di Beethoven non si usavano.
    Per dare una maggiore senso di completezza é sufficiente andare a vedere il grande maestro : Pollini quando esegue sempre di Beethoven le sonate N. 109/10/11 e così potrà ben comprendere le differenze interpretative più "autentiche" e voglio ripetere: più equilibrate, e reali.
