Thanks to Danny Quinn for reading "A Gentleman in Moscow" and sending me back to this Mozart moment the Count endures with classical but productive impatience.
Magnífica sensibilidad con la alegría propia de Mozart, buena para confinamiento y siempre. No extraña que el escrito Amor Towles la valore e imagine en su obra Un caballero en Moscú
The point that I'm trying to make here is that great people typically don't accomplish massive feats until their adulthood when the amount of their opportunities, their intelligence, and their experiences with the world increase. Beethoven is a perfect case. However, this is not seen with Mozart; he was accomplishing great feats since he was five-years-old. Granted however lucky he may have been having a loving father who abandoned everything for his son, it still does not excuse Mozart's talent
I'm one with reoccurring depressions and for me Mozart's delightful joyfulness is like a balm. There's so much happy going on and the deep, dark underworld is not neglected. And his Requiem... it just fills my soul with awe. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit, but I've stared Van Gogh's Starry Night while listening to Requiem and I loved it. Some artists are called as masters of their art for a reason.
More likely it's just the sonata form of a fast-slow-fast movement. But I hope it was a happier time for him -- wish we could find where he was buried.
at 8:00, I remember at my 8th grade talent show, 4 years ago, when I stopped for a brief moment about 2 seconds, the audiences thought it is the end of the piece and they applauded. When I continued to play, many of them gasped and stopped clapping. It was hilarious. I intentionally stopped for only like 2 seconds because I know people will assume it is the end of the piece if I stopped for 3 or 4.
Yeah... Everyone in my high school only ever listen pop music or 2000s music.... I would better only one in a few hundred teenagers prefer classical music over the latest music😭
Hello. I do. I'm 24. I love Beethoven and Brahms, Debussy and Chopin, and Mozart of course. I guess younger people do not listen because of the lack of presentations and theaters, and pherhaps because of the high prices of concert tickets.

You are most welcome :) Being a composer as well who is also not a concert pianist, I find that musescore is pretty good for being free, and you don't have to keep your thoughts inside of you. It's only problem is the playback, of course. It gets the notes out, but everything else that is music, it pretty much ignores. But hey, that's what musicians are for, right? Line e'm up, and watch e'm fly. Thats what i've been doing for two years now. Just try to keep your thoughts squared away in your head about what you are writing, because you can't depend on the program to contain your creativity. You'll be alright if you use it as a composing tool and not a full on solution like Finale is supposed to be. Best of luck in the field, R. W. Argo-Zaro
That's the Alberti bass technique. Take any pop song you like and accompany it with that on the left hand, it will instantly sound classical. As to the melody, I guess it's simply a generic classical melody. Composers would borrow from each other tirelessly as well.
T'was seven score and sixteen more A dreadful scene to behold Marble silhouettes, white statuettes Forever gaze into time Haunting minuet, immortal duet Dance to the waltz of the souls Stillness falls upon the aging hall The fading chimes echo midnight
It is just played back a little faster, making that A more than the old 440. But as you know, in those days pianos and harpsichords were tuned all over the place up and down - never at 440!
As long as all the keys are tuned relative to each other it doesn't really matter. Standard tuning is just something we arbitrarily decided on after all.
As I listen, I'm reminded of Rev Beebe in "A Room with a View." He finds Lucy "tinkling away on a Mozart sonata." He compliments her, although he'd rather hear her playing Beethoven. Privately, Rev Beebe considers Mozart sonatas "silly little things."
So wonderful to read how many of us follow the music (& the art /architecture) in a great book like A Gentlemen in Moscow! I listened to opera all summer when I read Ann Patchett’s Bel Canto. Another superb book.
@@ogmehdi9321 Uhmmm. Do you realize that's about 6 years ago, and also, that kind of reaction on this kind of civil comment section is completely uncalled for, to be honest.
Here are many guesses about the performer.... the nearest to come in my mund are Mitsuko Uchida ...or Ingrid Haebler? (whose style possibly isn't quite this sharp, but otherwise could match...)
Today's classical musicians pale in comparison to those in Mozart's time. Though there are so many talented piano prodigies, from children to teens, very few can compose at all, and those who can are nowhere near Mozart's level when he was 5, let alone 18.
I know I over simplified things, but you misunderstood my meaning. I was simply wondering why he made such a great distinction between 17 year olds and adults. We may not be in our prime, but we are not to be underestimated. As a side point i was also saying that music is highly subjective and hard to judge, who knows what our taste will look like in a few hundred years. Perhaps i will come and explain this rant of mine some other time, too tired to be making much sense right now im sure.

A universe without Mozart is not worth the trouble.
That sounds like nothing to be embarrassed over. The only embarrassment should be on those who listen to Mozart and feel nothing.
This was probably composed during the happier times of his life. The opening allegro is so full of life !
More likely it's just the sonata form of a fast-slow-fast movement. But I hope it was a happier time for him -- wish we could find where he was buried.

This is an excellent performance: the phasing, dynamic contrast, and delicacy of playing suits the style of Mozart's era.

Why do I love 0:56 - 1:08 so much? Sounds so playful like a giggle.
probably because of the many usages of grace notes

cant picture a 17 year old playing this well, tbh
Piano Sonata No. 1 In C Major K. 279 is my favorite Piano Sonata by Mozart.

3:30 sounds like part of Moonlight sonata 3rd movement (ik this inspired parts of it since Mozart was a big influence over Beethoven)
Good catch, it does very similar for that second
Yes Beethoven copied Mozart just like he did in Symphony 9
@ChristianBach7 I was talking about the melody and it's rhythm.
That's the Alberti bass technique. Take any pop song you like and accompany it with that on the left hand, it will instantly sound classical. As to the melody, I guess it's simply a generic classical melody. Composers would borrow from each other tirelessly as well.
i doubt that since it's not the theme of the 3rd movement

I would suggest that this is M.Uchida playing. Sounds totally like her style!
The piano is tuned quite sharp, much more than 442. Anyway, the piece is performed so good. I love it.
