Thank you so much, Mr. Leon McCawley, I like Haydn's music because it's bright. It's especially good to listen to in the winter. I'm your fan.
Many thanks.
Good to hear some Haydn, he doesn't perhaps get the credit he deserves as a composer. These piano sonatas seem to be little gems, waiting to be discovered.
Leon, This is just wonderful playing- so detailed, so precise, so alive to the intelligence of the work. Control of sound and rhythm is of the first rank, of course! What I love so much in this work is the use of silence - contolled, metric - which assumes equal importance to the very clever motivic variation. There is a wonderful Schenker analysis of this, which I am sure you know and there is a very clever man at Durham called Michael Spitzer who writes most perceptively about Haydn. School over!!! I wish you all the very best with the recordng - if you get a sound and a piano like this performance at the Wigmore it will be wonderful.
Thank you so much!
what i like is that even the little frilly bits (layman's term) are played with meaning and conviction.
Thank you!
This brims with wit grace from the first bar. It is highly intelligent with a great sense of fun. I've listened to these sonatas for many years, and I don't remember a performance nearly as engaging. The Adagio is deeply moving and leads me to a sense I haven't felt for a long time: I hear a love for the music, transmitted right into my headphones. No playing has struck me this way since Lipatti and Moravec. How I wish I could have been there. Failing that, thank you Mr. McCawley for giving us this video.
You are so kind to write and your comments mean so much. Thank you.
@@LeonMcCawleyPianist In many years of listening, I've been able to identify certain traits and performers I especially love. You fit right in to several of them. Thanks for your reply, which also "means so much" to me.
@@steps222 Lipatti and Moravec are the kind of company i like to keep as well! bravo
Mr.Leon McCawley, SO WONDERFUL AS ALWAYS, MAESTRO!!!!! Today this morning I've heard your playlist "Haydn Piano Music", thank you for these your 5 excellent outstanding great performances and again my new big "like-thumb up-upvote"30, lately I've noticed on your second channel called "Leon McCawley-Topic" (this channel set probably automatically by CZcams) your playlist "Haydn Piano Sonatas", 16 videos, and I will listen to Haydn's music at noon time (Btw. Do you play sometimes jazz music for your pleasure? I know you are a classical professional pianist and this music is absolutely my favourite, but lately my new musical revelation it's Oscar Peterson, a Canadian famous jazz composer, mainly his "Hymn to Freedom"), as every day my best wishes from Poland, have a happy week. Joanna
Great- thank you very much! I love jazz but don't improvise. Oscar Peterson is just wonderful. You might like some of my Samuel Barber recordings on the Topic channel, in particular Excursions.
@@LeonMcCawleyPianist thank you for your information, I will listen to your Samuel Barber recordings on the Topic channel soon, at the moment I listen to your playlist "Haydn Piano Sonatas" on this channel, again all the best from Poland, Maestro! Joanna
Mr.Leon McCawley, thank you for this information, Maestro, already Samuel Barber it's my new musical revelation, my best regards! Joanna
You are very welcome, Joanna. Thank you!
This is amazing will you put this up on CZcams aging when you play it again along with Mozart and Schubert at Wigmore hall in September
Many thanks. I'm not sure yet whether the September recital will be live-streamed but watch this space!
