Mozart's F Major Sonata, K. 332 with Sara Davis Buechner

[@ryanlock2u]

It’s so lovely listening to people who love Mozart talk about Mozart.

[@patrickgomes2213]

Mozart and his conversations. I maintain that his piano concertos are operas, just ones we're not privy to understand the words of. But you can certainly understand the crowd gathering, individual voices dominating from the crowd, scenes in the gardens with young lovers, and the return of the crowd - or whatever story Mozart's music is telling you. But I firmly believe he conceived his music vocally, not necessarily singing voices, but individual voices telling a story.

[@patrickgomes2213]

Sometimes his music is a voice telling a story, but it's a soliloquy, as complex as Hamlet's to be or not to be, with one voice arguing with the main claim and then arguing with the counterclaim and so forth.

She's a rare kind of person that can let you learn rather than force information down your throat. Wonderful video.

[@captainalpaka1551]

She is one of the most articulate person I've ever heard. Bravo

[@Juscz]

Excellent advice and analysis for students of piano as well as lovers of music in general. Thank you for sharing with us your passion for, and deep insights into, Mozart!

[@stephenbeckman208]

I've always struggled to play Mozart well and for sure this video shows how subtle the techniques are for creating that classic "Mozart" sound!

[@BakusZD]

Incredible lesson! Very sad that it’s not full. I enjoyed every second of it !

[@thibomeurkens2296]

Anyone who hasn’t watched her recording of Strauss’s Burleske, it’s incredible I can’t recommend it enough.

Now, that’s a real teacher. Brava!

[@noshirm6285]

Sara, wonderful to hear you play and explain at the keyboard.

[@sesamedoor6240]

I like the alberti bass and legato tricks ! Thank you :)

[@lloydlim]

Very helpful lesson. This piece is deceptive in that it looks fairly easy, but it’s not-if you try to get all the sound/nuances right.

[@NidusFormicarum]

The point of the opening melody is that the sonata starts as if it was a sceond theme followed by the end group. It doesn't belong to my favourite Mozart piano pieces though. I prefer the later, more chambermusically versed and more tehnically advanced Mozart. The second movement of his last piano sonata would be one example.

[@falstaff63]

Great analysis and very clear explanations of this excellent sonata. Thank yo so much for sharing all your knowledge.

[@Clown321321]

Brilliant, thank you tonebase!

[@michaelshark1]

Thank you, you brought up some wonderful learning tips.

[@sesamedoor6240]

I don’t understand the beginning articulations . There are two notes slurs . She played a long one instead .

[@lflagr]

That depends on the edition you use, some have no slurs on the opening melody

[@arielmarci5352]

Subtítulos en español por favor, gracias.

Where is the second part?

[@currawong2011]

I hear her ages ago in the Sydney Piano competition...and thought when I heard her she should surely be the winner...alas, that is not the way competitions so often go

[@AbnormaalTsi]

Wonderful

Marvelous pianist and teacher!

[@nicoletahasikou1860]

Hello. Certainly comments given in a very aptly way, appreciated...Would it be possible to post more music?

[@andream.464]

“La donna è mobile” in this Mozart sonata… I didn’t know lol

[@franzlisztish]

EXCELLENT!

[@annecheng7761]

The word 'simple' doing a lot of heavy lifting there. :)

[@kliberalsing]

I recommend taking all this good advice with a pinch of salt. If it works to improve your own playing, it is good, if it doesn't work.....don't punish yourself. Mozart would probably be happy listening to less-than-perfect interpretations.

[@psforrest1]

That's true of any piano lesson. But Sara has wonderful insights, whether or not one can or chooses to absorb and execute all of her recommendations.

Severa maestra

2:08 "Mozart would absolutely expect that kind of thing." :)) How do we know?

[@kpunkt.klaviermusik]

It's explained in CPE Bachs "Versuch über die wahre Art das Clavier zu spielen" and other textbooks from that time.

[@markito3311]

The sound of the piano recording is ugly. The voice is nice.

[@PassionPno]

Thanks for demonstrating your severe lack of vocabulary.

[@anthonyciacciopianist]

The ornament in “romantic style” (before the beat)? Please, no!!

[@orlandodilasso2319]

Brutale, vulgäre, total inkompetente Pianistin, hat keine Ahnung von Mozart.

[@pinberttube]

You are not authorized to have an opinion on Mozart, Mr. di Lasso. You have died 150 years before Mozart was born, so you can't actually know what you're talking about.

This must be sarcasm.

@@elizabethspence433 Orlande de Lassus (also Roland de Lassus, Orlando di Lasso, Orlandus Lassus, Orlande de Lattre or Roland de Lattre; 1532, possibly 1530 - 14 June 1594) was a composer of the late Renaissance, chief representative of the mature polyphonic style of the Franco-Flemish school, and considered to be one of the three most famous and influential musicians in Europe at the end of the 16th century (the other two being Palestrina and Victoria).
