Nope, don't think such a thing exists.

For us musicians, the music of Beethoven is the pillar of fire and cloud of mist which guided the Israelites through the desert. (Roughly quoted, Franz Liszt.)

It probably has a different name.

Mylene Klass has played it, which is reason enough to avoid it like the plague anyway.

OF COURSE IT EXISTS!!!!

My ex-teacher (ha!) performed this for me one day. But I just don't have the music for it, sorry.

tartine beurre - RH plays with one finger only.

HOW is this possible?

Not a hoax. But a musical joke.

Not Mozart at its best. But Mozart nevertheless.

Good glissando practice.

Right hand to be played with only one finger, but not necessarily the same finger. Use 3rd finger for ascending glissandos and acciacaturas and use thumb for descending ones.

A better quality piece at the same level of difficulty, and with glissandos as well (if that is the attraction), is Clementi´s “Grand Waltz”

Best wishes,
Bernhard.

So you're saying that this is real after all? Well, I never saw it in the Kochel catalogue.

Of course it is real. Supposedly Mozart composed it when he was 5 years old. Then some attribute it to Leopold Mozart (Mozart´s father).

See for yourself:

&feature=related

&NR=1

(although both pianists cheat by not playing the whole of the right hand with only one finger – it makes it more difficult, but also more amusing).

Here:

https://www.mozartforum.com/VB_forum/archive/index.php/t-1553.html

you will find a discussion on the authenticity of this piece (i.e., is it really by Mozart?)

Best wishes,
Bernhard

I have a recording of an encore played but Katsaris. I didn't know what it was, but now that I've heard this Mozart, I think it's a (friendly and charming) parody of this piece, I guess by himself.
EDIT: just listened to it again at home and found out it's actually not a parody but the piece itself....

So, I have to play with one finger RH even in non-glissando passages?
Or does this apply only to glissando passages?

Thanks!

Such an old topic, but I had to reply. I learned this piece as a child, and I continue to play 50 years later. I love it!
