Video: Beethoven Op. 109

on: June 10, 2008, 05:30:49 AM

Here's the link to my you tube upload. The middle movement of Beethoven's OP. 109. Look forward to the other two soon! Pardon the mistakes, I dug it out after a couple of weeks of neglect!

enjoy!

Soft parts aren't soft enough and there's not enough polyphony!
Looks like you've got good fingers!

Walter, if you happen to listen to my Mozart PC (which alas has slid into page 2 oblivion) and say I have good fingers, would I be correct in assuming I should not give up my day job?

Anyway, beside the point. piano_ant, great work on Beethoven! I agree you could do more dynamic shifts (recordings are notorious for leveling dynamics, though) and I think some of the fast notes you reach for here and there in the upper registers are too staccato. Fine playing, though!

in general it's quite impressive. true, as has been suggested by previous posters, you need to observe the dynamics more. and also, better voicing can do wonder here. i just uploaded my version, feel free to comment. best, tds
