Mozart kv 284, take 2
on: July 04, 2010, 08:13:07 AM
This was a minor unofficial recital for like friends and parents.
I was a bit shaky in the start, so the tempo is a bit here and there...

Anyway, tell me what you think :)
And oh, If anyone has any advice about those freaking thirds, plz share them!

Very good work!  I liked your phrasing and the direction of the melodic lines.  And, the finger-work, of course, excellent.  The only gripe I have is the introduction to the second theme.  Play it in strict time but with the melodic intention in the phrasing.  It's sort of confusing - in the recapitulation as well.  I don't know what thirds you are talking about.  The right hand accompaniment in the beginning of the development is sort of weak, rythimically.  Don't know why.  But I liked your interpretation of this little played sonata very much!

... My whole comment disappeared, what a bummer...

Anyway, thx for listening and commenting :)

The second theme is the most difficult one, I think. It's the first personal part in the sonata, so it need some time, but I understand what you mean, and will try to improve it :)

if you've got the score, it's the thirds in bar 40 and 43 (and 112 and 115)

This is a nice perormance and the 3rds he is talking about are in the right hand part at bars 40 & 43 Birba. These are paricularly difficult to play "in time" "at speed"....if that makes sense.

I am not talking about your "memory lapse" ritenuto's Pianstein, but at 2 places you failed at demostrating you were Horowitz. Play it as written and you will become a breath taking pianist - if you work hard.

Chopin Ballades (all)

Those thirds are extremely difficult. Not even Utchida plays them perfectly :P
but thx for your comment.
Haha, I'm prepared to work hard ;D
What places are you talking about?
