[@Rousseau]

There are almost 100 Rousseau videos since the beginning of the channel and only ONE of them is Mozart! It's time to change that! Starting with something almost every pianist has played at least once in their life, the 1st Mvt of his 16th Piano Sonata. Mozart himself wrote and considered the entire sonata "for beginners", and it often serves as as a way for pianists who are just starting out to learn a piece of a longer length. It holds a dear place in many pianists hearts as one of the most recognizable pieces from their youth. Hope your Monday is great ♥

I think when Mozart called it "a piece for beginners" he was basing it on himself. Remember, we are talking about a musician that learned the piano when he was very little, and he composed his first song when he was 5!

There’s so much nostalgia and memories associated with this song. It is such a beautiful melody and to this day is still one of my favorite tunes. I still play it to this day, along with many more tunes other songs. I love all types of music and instrumentals like interstellar, Narnia, lion king’s this land, Balto soundtracks, or any Hanz Zimmer music honestly. I love it all🥹piano, music, melody, harmony, symphony is my outlet and soothes my soul, playing piano will remain in me forever 🥹🎹I love music. Even though I will probably never learn how to read notes or sheet music, I will always play piano and sing in harmony. Thankful to and grateful that God gave me such gift like this😭🥹🤍

This is literally my favorite piano sonata of all time. It's what got me into playing piano and ultimately into making music. I first heard it in the movie "Groundhog Day," where Phil Conners hears this wonderful music at a coffee shop. Like him, It inspired me to start learning how to play and it's amazing where this one piano sonata lead me in life. Life sure is funny that way.

So far one of the best interpretations I've heard...
For some reason many pianists tend to play this at a very high speed, and I get that it's an "allegro", but a musician when performing a piece should be aware of when it was composed, and at the time when Mozart came around, the allegro was interpreted a little slower compared to now. I appreciate you got that pretty accurate.

To each its own I guess, because in my opinion this is the worst one I've heard.
The interpretation is absurdly flat, when the piece is supposed to be floaty and lively. Even in sadder parts the sombre tone is kind of half-assed.
Ofc when I say "the worst" I don't actually mean the worst because I've heard people properly butcher the piece because they're practicing or haven't mastered the piece yet. On a technical aspect this interpretation is nearly perfect. By "the worst" I meant the worst proper execution of the piece I've listened to, because I find this one highly boring and uninteresting.

Yes the 3rd or 5th pathetiquè

[@CalamityShreds]

"Beginner piece" my ass. This is a solid late-intermediate piece if I'm not mistaken.

[@angkhangnguyen5017]

i would consider it from late-beginner to mid-intermediate

[@charlenesolis3848]

This is like a beginner to sonatas piece but definitely not a beginner to piano piece

[@Mr3lusion]

Late intermediate is around Fantasie Impromptu level

[@jeff-hd9og]

That would mean this is as hard as fantasie impromptu

[@felicitydargis]

I'm playing this for my RCM Level 8 exam so I'd say late Intermediate too

@Comidas Saudáveis Ma'am, and a piece is a composition while a song is when a human's voice basically has the main role. When it comes to classical music though you never want to call it a song.

[@ParrotQueenPlays]

@Comidas Saudáveis Also piece usually have multiple parts, in sonatas for example you have movements.

Qu’est-ce que c’est beau. Ça touche l’âme. Merci Mozart

[@antares5879]

This piece is not for beginners. What happen is that the introduction stared playing with both hands in the key of Sol and it makes the notes sharp as if it was a child musical box. Mozart was indeed, a prodigious musician. He captivate people with his music. Starting the piano sonata #16 in such a way atracct anyone's attention. And that was his goal.
Mozart a great composer!!

[@eduardo1220]

I don't know about you guy's but as a piano player for 4 years now, this is actually a good piece to play for beginners. Sadly I didn't know this song existed before I played Fur Elise and Moonlight Sonata Movement 1 for my solo competition as well a few difficult pieces to challenge myself.
