Posts in the piano forum about this piece by Mozart:
I haven't played any Mozart, and I'm looking for a piece to start with. After reading around the forum, I got the impression that Mozart's sonata in C major, K545, is considered an "easy" piece. (grade 5, or whatever)
Judging from the score and a recording (Gould's), this doesn't look or sound easy at all! The tempo of the first movement has to be around 120 bpm, with nonstop 16th-notes and long trills. And everything has to be super-even. In fact, to me this looks harder than Beethoven's op2.1. Is it just my technique that is weird, or am I missing something else? Exactly what is making this sonata easy? |
Particularly in measure 4 and measure 15.
thanks |

The "simple" Mozart Sonata. I guess this is the first movement. It's the only one in the beginning piano book I have.

I have downloaded 2 versions of this Sonata. Can someone please tell me which of these sections is correct, as they do not seem to be the same. :-\ ???

In the first run of 16th notes in the first movement of K.545, , there's a footnote in . [i]W.A. MOZART—An Introduction to His Keyboard Works[/i] that reads:
[b]To play sixteenth notes legato, as marked by many editors, is contradictory to the Italian style for Allegro movements. To cite only one of many sources, Giuseppe Tartini wrote of sixteenth-note passages in Allegro tempos: "Play the notes detached and separate, with a little space between each two—as if there were a rest after every note."[/b] (My bolding.)
So, should I play my scales as the footnote says I should play Mozart in order to prepare? I think I could still handle the legato of the other stuff I'm working on—a Chopin Prelude and a Beethoven Sonatina.
Any tips on playing Italian style will be welcomed.
For what it's worth, this book I referred to seems to be a wonderful introduction to Mozart. This 2006 edition even includes an audio CD with which you can hear all the pieces in the book, all of them easy (if you call his Somata in C Major easy).
The editor, Willard A. Palmer is a stickler for publishing (and playing) Mozart the way Wolfie would want his works done. I love that kind of respect.

good evening volks! i am new here and come from germany (so sorry for my bad english;)). first hallo alltogether!very nice forum and interesting postings here (i have seen, that here are a lot of ´profis´) ... i unfortunately play piano only for a short time and have a big problem: i tried everything, but don´t know, whats right: how to play the notes in time 15 in Mozarts ´Sonate facile´. this trill (in german: pralltriller= tr) and the other ´special effect´ before the trill, how to play them? how look the notes in this time for this ´features´, if they are written out in normal form/shape? how is there relationship with the notes, which are played with the left hand? can anyone describe and explain, maybe demonstrate this?perhaps by writing out the played notes ( maybe in a sort of picture)?
thank, thx thx for all, you are my rescuer ;) you and sorry for my bad english (on german websites nobody could help :( )
