Barenboim: Beethoven - Sonata No. 19 in G minor, Op. 49 No. 1

[@carmenl9280]

Beautifully played. This is not one of the most challenging sonatas by Beethoven, but it is extremely difficult to play it so nicely.

[@bikkies]

I think that's a very good point. It's one thing to be able to physically play a piece like this. It's something quite different to be able to play it *properly*. Balance, expression, tempo, phrasing, lightness of touch. That's why Daniel Barenboim was and still is a Maestro.

I’m learning this piece now. I’m convinced that despite what the experts say, LVB called this ‘Facile’ as some sick joke as it isn’t as easy as one might think

[@nataliepeh]

Agree, so very masterfully played!

The control. Absolutely spectacular.

He plays fantastic!! One of the best versions of Beethoven piano sonatas

[@kimsahl8555]

A great composer, a great pianist, a great piano.

[@elaineblackhurst1509]

kim sahl ...but not a great sonata. It is very difficult to justify this work’s place (and that of Opus 49 No 2) in the canon of Beethoven’s sonatas as the pair of them are so far short of the other thirty. That said, No 1 is far better than No 2.

[@alexp6453]

I find it very enjoyable to listen to. Not up there with his other sonatas maybe, but that doesn’t change the beauty of this piece for me

[@kimsahl8555]

@@elaineblackhurst1509 Yes, not a great sonata but a great sonatine.

[@apostolismoschopoulos1876]

@@elaineblackhurst1509 I find it difficult to understand the use of the word "better" when one compares such works. How do you mean? You mean 19 is more vivid, more joyful, more lyric than 20? You mean you find more meaning in passages of 19? You ought to refrain using words like "better" if you want other musicians to consider seriously what you want to communicate.

Very COOL

This is a mostly* calm work but I love the way Daniel Barenboim plays. Thank you Daniel Barenboim.❤ *when I say mostly I don’t mean this is all about calmness but slow and sad at the FIRST movement.

Going to have to agree with some, I think those 16th notes were too rushed. The rest is nice though

All of these sonatas appear to be dedicated to Joseph Haydn. Can this be right?

?? Did he treat the quarter note of mm39 as an eighth note? Did I see right? This practice is generally accepted? or I got it wrong?

It's a music from the classical era.

[@elaineblackhurst1509]

Tempest Sirius Music from the Classical period ie Mozart and Haydn has emotions too, they are just not the same as in Beethoven.

[@apostolismoschopoulos1876]

@@elaineblackhurst1509 this particular work was composed in 1796 which kind of means it belongs to the classical era. But that doesn't explain the lack of emotion of course. Barenboim chose a more strict approach if I had to take a guess.

[@apostolismoschopoulos1876]

@@Thiago-px9ev Even though I too, don't enjoy how Lang Lang behaves while performing the piano - and I think it overshadows the music he is playing- I can't say he is not a real pianist, I can say he is one that should not be taken seriously. Furthermore I think that with his attitude he makes classical music appealing for the mass audience. But as soon as one finds the piano elite(Barenboim, Arrau, Gould etc), then yes I agree, I believe there's no point in returning in Lang Lang. Long story short Lang Lang is good for introducing one to classical music.
