Lubov Timofeyeva plays Haydn Complete Piano Sonatas

[@kuruczalbert]

There are many unusual tempo and rhythm choices on these recordings. Surprising. And it should be. Timofeyeva's Haydn is among the best. She is now in my favorite list as well as Sokolov, Schiff, Gould, Richter, and Brendel.

I just clicked on the photo of a beautiful woman, i confess. But i'm enchanted both with the music and the performance. It's surprising to find so little information about her on the web... Thanks for the load, it's charming...

[@cisnegro6693]

@Jemand Anderes i'm not an expert in anything, my friend, but, since you asked my opinion, the best thing i can tell you is that the performance and the subtle gestures of pleasure of the pianist remind me David Helfgot, not only as he is portrayed in the movie, but also the real one. They both play like floating in a graceful, speedy stream of music that flows from their hands with no effort at all. Of course, that's the illussion created by the mastery gained after years of practice: everything seems easy. It´s been nice to hear this Trushechkin, thanks.

Ms. Timofayeva's pianism was to me an extraordinary discovery. What an exquisite touch, wonderful musicality, and almost superhuman technical facility. I could listen for hours to her playing.

[@alexphillips2378]

Same here - an amazing discovery. She seems to have avoided coming to the West. The only concert I am aware of there was in Paris. Other than that it's Russia and Japan and one or two places I forget. Maybe South America.

My love for Haydn started more than forty years ago after hearing just one of his quartets: The Bird, Opus 33. That was my introduction to this prolific composer...and I started listening to more and more of his music... found them to be just wonderful. What an amazing composer with such great ability to compose piece after piece of gorgeous and engrossing music which, after nearly 300 years, is still wonderfully charming and calming and delightfully appealing! Listen to his Sunrise quartet. What a tender and beautiful quartet! And many more such treasures...!

[@olavk7111]

He was not only an amazingly prolific composer, churning many dozens of delightful pieces, he invented the whole genre. Indeed, he invented the modern piano sonata, the string quartet, the piano trio, the symphony, even the sonata form that is very much alive to this day.

I enjoyed the way Ms Timofeyeva played these sonatas. Clarity is essential in such as these pieces. Her ornamentation was terrific. My early piano lessons resulted in a hatred for Haydn, whom, of course, my teacher adored. I've obviously recovered..

[@Kobzar3374]

Well, I cannot say that I hated Haydn, but I must confess that I felt almost nothing when I listened to his works: it seemed to me always the same trying to make you think that everything is OK, the Sun is shining, and birds are singing, while you are experiencing all hardships of life. Therefore, I definitely preferred romantic and modern piano, and, as far as the classical period was concerned, I liked Mozart far more than Haydn. How ignorant I was… Now I am discovering lots of passages of delicate beauty in these sonatas (especially from the no. 12 onwards), and I am happy to be able to turn my indifference into appreciation for Haydn. Thanks to Lyubov Timofeeva! This has been a similar case as when Sviatoslav Richter reconciled me with Bach's "Well Tempered Clavichord"…

[@richardyatesyates3893]

I keep listening more than a few times a week to this music and a great interpretation

[@domenicotrentadue7639]

[@mrbrianmccarthy]

When you listen to these pieces, its hard to believe how many good ones there are!! Haydn was amazing! So prolific and clever, and he rarely repeated himself, quite a feat considering how much music he wrote.

[@Cantbuyathrill]

Very hard to pick a favorite from among them.

[@Kobzar3374]

I did not imagine that Haydn was so interesting. Formerly I found his works (those which I listened to) "just nice," but I was not really impressed, enraptured by them, they did not really attract me. It seemed to me always the same trying to make you think that everything is OK, the Sun is shining, and the birds are singing, and to ignore the deep abyss of the hardships of life that I was experiencing, and therefore I did not identify with that music. Now it is very different. Thank you for letting me know better Haydn and appreciate him. It is being a discovery.

[@arekkrolak6320]

so what exactly has changed your opinion? :)

[@Kobzar3374]

@@arekkrolak6320 There are many passages of a delicate beauty, for example, in the sonatas nos. 12, 31, and many others. Those pieces are classical, but not conventional. They have attracted my attention.

[@blancaperse]

@Kobzar3374 - Mozart shadows Haydn. Sometimes I like Haydn better. He was an extraordinary fellow, very sensitive and sensible.

[@titicatfollies6615]

I had the same response when I first heard Haydn's piano sonatas. I had always thought of him as a "poor man's Mozart" (so to speak). But when I heard the sonatas, played by Gilbert Kalish, my opinions changed entirely. I fell in love with them. I feel a little embarrassed at how I had dismissed Haydn for so long.

[@rsjmd]

@@titicatfollies6615 No need to feel ANY embarassment...probably all of us have felt and done the same over our lifetimes with regards to performers, composers, friends, spouses, etc. Our sensibilities change as we get older. You made choices based upon who you were at the time...normal.

Thank you, ADGO, from Portugal, for posting these magnificent interpretations by Lubov Timofeyeva. Haydn ( from whom Mozart got so much inspiration ) is one of a kind in the history of Music, a miracle, indeed. How much creativity he was able to put into each composition and all seems easy as if one comes to a very well-known country but it was a newfound land by Haydn! Piano Sonata in E-flat major 1798. You can hear it again and again as it awakens your mind each time in a better way.

Humor and joy in the outer movements, as only Haydn could conceive. But also, deep emotional solace in the inner movements. You surely understand the vision and spirit of Haydn! Perfection! Well done!

What a lovely sensitive interpretation of these musical gems. I don’t care for the term “der gute Papa Haydn” because it seems to downplay the disciplined creativity that makes Haydn sonatas so delightfully rewarding to enjoy.

[@gfweis]

Thanks very much for this valuable post. I've been a fan for many years, and about 10 years ago was lucky enough to get the cd box with her complete Haydn sonatas. She has a real feeling for the delight, buoyancy, and bonhomie in this music, and her crisp articulation is wonderful. For me, sometimes, in some sonatas, she trills a bit too much, but that minor carp shrinks into insignificance next to all her virtues.

[@pamelafrancis4476]

am in full accordance with your words!

[@gfweis]

@Jemand Anderes Absolutely marvelous articulation, and he so nicely brings out the wit that so often characterizes Haydn's prestos. Thank you. For my own personal taste, I prefer the presto in No. 31 to be a bit slower than this, the way Pogorelich and Bavouzet play it, i.e., just under 4 minutes.

Haydn is such an underrated and overlooked composer of classical piano music, often shadowed by the likes of Mozart and Beethoven.

[@pamelafrancis4476]

Without Haydn the likes of M and B would sound entirely different. Interesting thought.

[@Gwailo54]

It doesn’t help with the various numberings. I was at a talk given by the pianist and composer John McCabe who took us through a whirlwind tour of the sonatas. He was very interesting. It’s a shame that talks/lectures like these, given to a small audience at the Hereford Three Choirs (when his excellent new work Woefully Arrayed was premiered) are not recorded. We lose a wealth of information, such as how Britten marked his piano pieces that he performed. If you never heard McCabe’s anecdote, you will never guess it in a month of Sundays.
