Help with interpreting Sonata Op 13 (Pathetique)

[kawwai]

2nd movement is fine, I mainly need help with 1st and 3rd.
For the 1st, with all the chords, should I bang them and make sure they're ff, then the next ones diminishing, and quieter? Also, on allegro part on the 2nd page, I'm not sure how much I should crescendo going up.
3rd I'm not sure how I should play it.
Here is my rough idea for each movement
1st: Agitation to remorse for grave, then during fast part, agitated, and bursting into anger, then in the section where I'm crossing hands, it's regretful then turning to anger.
2nd: Warm, soft, then intense in the middle section before calming down for the recapitulation.
3rd: Agitated, and angry, this is the aftermath of the rage.
Any advice? Thanks

hi kawwai,

As i have performed this entire sonata the first movement opening sets the tone for the sonata, so right on the opening c minor chord it needs to be a full sound. then on the following chords do not bang them out, but instead decrease the weight on the chords to get a lighter but still full sound and play these connected, but still not full on legato. Then use the a flat going into the diminished and repeat as before. for the allegro section use the fermanta right after the chromatic run before to add suspense and then start the allegro. Begin soflty and grow till you get to the full c minor chord and come down fro there until you return to the c again. Hope this helped
