I love this recording because when you listen to this with headphones, you can hear one piano on the left and the other on the right

[@herbertwells8757]

Interesting you say that because I’ve noticed that performances for two pianos seem to most effective in small venues where the antiphony is enhanced. Ideally they would take place in someone’s living room. Living rooms with two grand pianos are rare, unfortunately, but I happen to know one such living room. In this house the two grand pianos pretty much ARE the living room.

[@advk77]

@@herbertwells8757 that's strange. But the audio does seem to come from two sides doesn't it? It's not that one side is only one piano, but upon closing one ear, one of them is heard clearly and the other more softly

Mozart is the best melody maker. His melody is simple and complex. It means he manipulates the concepts with optimization.

ゾルタン・コチシュの弾くロックのようなカッコいいモーツァルトが大好きです。この曲は特に、とても200年前の音楽とは思えない新しさと瑞々しさに満ち、現代のポップスの源流ではないかと常々思っています。惚れ惚れするような素敵な演奏です。

Do you know of any recordings that are at all slower in tempo? All that I've heard are around this same tempo. (Which is probably the correct one, but I'd love to listen to one that's a bit slower, it one exists.)

[@bakuto.1055]

[@RWBHere]

@@DavidDartley kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoWcmIdrl9acbLs is slightly slower, and brighter than this recording. As to which version of a piece of music is best, the answer is that it is the recording which _you_ prefer. It's an individual's choice, not that of someone who might even be regarded as 'an expert'. An 'ex' is a has-been, and a 'spurt' is a pressurised drip. Make of that whatever you wish! The only real authority is the composer, and he or she might have performed their music quite differently on each occasion.

[@p1x3lj3rry3]

Nice, I can also recommend Radu Lupu together with perahia. Its my Personal favorite.

[@randykern1842]

This must be an absolute nightmare for the pianists. You're not just staying together rhythmically but you have to match your articulations and dynamics too. Extremely difficult to do, Bravo!

[@louisvalencia5244]

That´s basically what you do in regular orchestra.

[@louisvalencia5244]

@@nicho588 NiXMV Because in between two dudes is easy to agree or decide what suits best in the performance, but in an orchestra with lets say 60 people, it would be pandemonium. Besides, string quartets, quintets all the way to octets you don't use conductors, and are arguably harder genders of music.

[@authenticmusic4815]

What about concerto for 2 or even THREEE pianos? Three pianists and a full size orchestra must stay together perfectly , which is nearly impossible...

[@seamtaro]

The thing that I love most about this piece is that the fact that there is a lot of involvement within both pianos, whether it may be an arpeggio, chord, or harmony, which is already clearly stated on the first movement. It's why I love to listen to his chamber works, other than how brilliant his orchestra or concerto works are.

[@nancyparis1]

I adore this. They were so young when they recorded it, so gifted and focused- already so excellect, and they only got better. I mourn the death of Kocsis.

[@akanecortich8197]

This is the best rendition I have heard so far. Bright, energetic when necessary. Exactly as Mozart intended it at the time for his student. Other recitals tend to put the modern thinking on it, losing its original force. Others understate and under play the music.

[@andresguillermoalvarezlope418]

Can We all appreciate how well coordinated their double trill is in 12:44 ??????? I MEAN COME ON, trills is such a personal thing to dévelope, how the fuck do they make it sound so in time and coordinated? I need to know

[@pianoman551000]

This is why this performance is superb!! It is extremely difficult for duo-pianists to coordinate their playing with such accuracy. This composition by Mozart is a prime example of "call and response." One pianist plays the initial opening thematic statement and the 2nd pianist responds by concluding that statement. Precision playing between the two pianists Is EVERTHING in maintaining the continuity of the rhythm and tempo. One false note and the piece can go off the rails and disaster occurs!

[@OW0974]

This is why Kocsis-Ranki is one of the best piano duos out there

[@soozb15]

Probably because they had already played together for many years and shared the same teachers at the music academy in Budapest. Kocsis said that even though he and Ránki were very different in personality and temperament, they were like brothers.

Zoltan is so perfectly rhythmic and technically adept despite being so young at the time of this recording.

Alfred Brendel's performance is a close second, but his softer style doesn't really fit my image of this song.

Why is this so?

[@caterscarrots3407]

Edgar Chan Mozart and Haydn had what some people describe as a musical brotherhood. So I’m not surprised that Mozart borrowed from Haydn sometimes when composing his own works.

[@Anti-Taxxer]

*Yanni's "Acroyali/Standing in Motion" was determined to have the "Mozart effect" by the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine (April 2001) because the composition is similar to Mozart's K 448 in tempo, structure, melodic and harmonic consonance and predictability, characteristics thought to decrease seizure activity and to enhance spatial-temporal performance."* Isn't it mazing that some music can have such a positive effect on people? It's pretty close to being magic.
