W. A. Mozart: Concerto No.25 in C Major K.503 - Kenneth Broberg

[@ronaldwilliams9266]

I agree that this concerto was played with beauty but also with sensitivity and skill. Thank God that he did not let his skill completely take over. How precious to let his individual instincts stand out.

[@hepzibel]

Merlin's Beard! He actually worked "La Marseillaise" into his First Movement Cadenza! I LOVE IT!!! Quite apart from that, this is the most Stunning and Heartfelt performance of this wonderful concerto I have heard IN DECADES! BRAVO, Mr Broberg!!!

[@XavFranz]

Very interesting cadenza! Nicely!

IL n'a pas fait intégré "La Marseillaise" Rouget de L'Isle s'est inspiré de ce phrasé du concerto de de Mozart pour la composition de la Marseillaise. 😮

[@marizacabral5141]

According to wikipedia, the Marseillaise was written later. Clearly inspired (to say the least) by this concerto.

[@herrbrucvald6376]

Wow. Broberg brings exquisite detail to a ravishing iteration. I hear details in decorations and harmonies I never noticed as strongly before -- such as at 5:57, for one -- having heard many versions by famous pianists. Also, there's a lot of the majestic wisdom of the Magic Flute in this concerto, I now realize. Superb.

[@davidrogoff8812]

Beautifully executed, with great musical sensitivity. And I loved his cadenza in the first movement. Bravo!

[@contagieux]

Love that he plays his own cadenza . Outstanding recording.

[@lablous]

Cadenza 1st or 3rd ? From himself creation ?

[@ubuntuivan]

Cadenza 1 was nice...but bringing Tchaikovsky in there was funny and a little bootlegged...

[@HR-yd5ib]

@@ubuntuivan , are you telling me you appreciated the Marseillaise getting interjected? uuuugggh

[@telephilia]

Mozart did not write a cadenza for this work, I believe. In fact, he didn't write many cadenzas - not until Beethoven did written cadenzas become the norm. For a long time, cadenzas by the likes of near contemporary Hummel were the standard.

[@johnhowe6812]

I totally agree. Love it!!

[@prototropo]

The melodic figuration at 32:23 and again, elaborated, at 32:42 is an example of guileless genius. We were gifted through Mozart an intelligence of stunning generativity . He sometimes seems to splash off an extra melody in the way an unexpected rainstorm can exceed a levee's capacity and leave engineers scrambling to release the overflow! My favorite music theory professor once quipped that the sort of felicities other composers only wring with labor, Mozart blithely tossed over his shoulder. But for brilliance that nearly blinds the rest of history's intellectual progress, Mozart might have a match in the astonishing mathematician Leonhard Euler. Both children of the 18th-Century Enlightenment, Euler and Mozart are easily the savants of Modernity. In fact, Euler's intellectual curiosity was so prodigious he actually spent time ruminating on music theories, and wrote an essay called "Tentamen novae theoriae musicae," (Attempt at a New Theory of Music).

[@howardchasnoff208]

My music professor always emphasizes that music is mathematical. He uses the scores to prove his point. There is balance and symmetry. The musical forms whether they be sonata allegro, rondo, dance forms etc all have a plan. the location of the golden mean and halfway point both have meaning. The composers adhered to the plan even though the form was not yet codified. Speaking of theory, Mozart was able to give us interesting chord progressions in his developments. ie. 1) Piano concerto 17 1st movement 2) Eb M divertimento for string trio 1st movement 2nd movement. Last movement.

[@prototropo]

@@howardchasnoff208 Thanks, Howard! Ill listen to those now.

[@poetmale]

Mozart must be smiling in his heaven. The right balance between orchester (to the point) and soloist (the small "rubati", sort of inventing the part as he goes along). The transparency of the orchestral voices (thanks to an outstanding conductor) and a soloist giving 110 %. A new high bar for the work!

[@alvarito45]

It's funny that Keneth had done that variations in his Cadenza so the french anthem sounds on it. No other pianist does it.

[@HR-yd5ib]

@@alvarito45 , I wonder why ... uuuggghh

[@livb6945]

The composer of the Marseillaise was in Vienna a few years before writing it. There are eight years between this composition and the French anthem, so it was indeed inspired by this piece. But then Mr Broberg did add a few notes 😊

Music doesn't need to be "interpreted" because there's nothing to interpret.

[@davidrogoff8812]

@@kennethdower7425 Not to argue the point, but if what you say is true, then all performances of the piece would sound the same.

[@kennethdower7425]

@@davidrogoff8812 Utter nonsense. People are not machines, so no performance, even by the same musician, will ever sound exactly the same. That has nothing to do with "interpretation", but the simple fact of multiple variables that will naturally occur from performance to performance. I get tired of explaining this to people that are ignorant of music and/or don't understand it's language, so I'll give you Stravinsky's words on the subject; if you think you know better than he then good luck to you: _"For, as I have already said, music should be transmitted and not interpreted, because interpretation reveals the personality of the interpreter rather than that of the author, and who can guarantee that such an executant will reflect the author's vision without distortion?"_

ivan igor Pollick it's truly amazing! It's unfortunate this sublime concerto isn't more frequently performed; I think it ranks second only to Beethoven's majestic Emperor Concerto in quality, for such works prior to the Romantic era. And there's echos of "La Marseillaise" throughout the first movement: it forms the base of the development section.

I was also curious about the Fazioli piano. I have come to love Steinways but I really do like the sound of the Fazioli. Competition is a great thing. That said, Steinway does do a lot to support their users. A lovely sound from the Fazioli! Plenty of women in the orchestra - good. I hope they're not ring-ins from the conservatory up the road but musos with a real job.

Indeed. Nice detail, left hand

[@pabloporrase]

Who wrote the cadenza?

[@lablous]

In addition, in the 2nd movement there is a passage on the left hand that refers to the Marseillaise, probably in reference to the recent, in those years, French Revolution

[@teribroberg1719]

The pianist wrote his own cadenza.

[@timothythorne9464]

Mozart's own cadenzas have been lost for some of his later concerti. It's usually up to the performer to craft a fitting cadenza

[@steveg5453]

@lablous the concerto dates from 1786. The French Revolution didn’t really kick off till 1789, and the Marseillaise was composed in 1792, the year after Mozart died.
