Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific … Read Full Bio ↴Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period. Despite his short life, his rapid pace of composition resulted in more than 800 works of virtually every Western classical genre of his time. Many of these compositions are acknowledged as pinnacles of the symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral repertoire. Mozart is widely regarded as among the greatest composers in the history of Western music, with his music admired for its "melodic beauty, its formal elegance and its richness of harmony and texture".

Born in Salzburg, then in the Holy Roman Empire and currently in Austria, Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood. Already competent on keyboard and violin, he composed from the age of five and performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17, he was a musician at the Salzburg court but grew restless and traveled in search of a better position.

While visiting Vienna in 1781, Mozart was dismissed from his Salzburg position. He stayed in Vienna, where he achieved fame but little financial security. During his final years there, he composed many of his best-known symphonies, concertos, and operas. His Requiem was largely unfinished by the time of his death at the age of 35, the circumstances of which are uncertain and much mythologized.

And this little piece of nonsense has been repeated ad infinitum, ad nauseam all over YouTube by commentators who have never stopped to think for themselves that Mozart is no different really from most other older keyboard composers where every note matters - Scarlatti being a good example.

It’s less relevant in later composers like Chopin where if you omit a note or two because you can’t stretch, nobody notices, but with Mozart’s contemporary Haydn, there is no difference whatsoever between the two composers.

Mozart was quite clear about this Sonata facile* that it was a little sonata ‘for beginners’, and that’s what it is; it serves no purpose to attempt to big it up into something it is not.

* Italian singular, therefore pronounced correctly:
’fah-chee-leh’.

@danal81

4y↑2

Pope Fran pianists can rush through pieces for various reasons, sometimes emotions overtake them and it reflects on their tempo (Perahia’s performance of Chopin’s fantasie in f minor towards the end comes to my mind). Uchida sometimes “rushes” Mozart, I think it’s the way she feels phrasing with Mozart works the best. I wouldn’t say either of these pianists is not musical. Of course there are pianists who play fast for superficial effect. I get what you mean, and your comment is relevant under this video because one of Haebler’s greatest strengths is precisely this more laid down approach to Mozart’s music which lets it “breathe”.

You shouldn't underestimate this sonata, it may be easier than other works of Mozart, but that doesn't make it a piece for beginners.
Some parts of the first movement are harder than you think. You need fast fingers for the scales and the the arpeggios are not so easy to play in the right speed. And then you have to play it with musical expression, left hand less loud etc. The difficulty is ranked intermediate (4-5 out of 9)

Now, I guess the only other mystery to be solved is - what is "semplice" about this, exactly. The left hand alberti is particularily unpleasantly difficult to play delicately. I get my nose out of joint at the suggestion that this piece, played beautifully, is in any way easy. This performance is very graceful and beautiful, but she is also a superb pianist. With technique. This isn't easy and if you are working on this piece, don't let that description discourage or bully you off of it. Just take Horowitz's advice "to play well you must do 3 things - practice, practice, practice."

The first four bars are sublime; the rest of this Sonata facile ‘…for beginners’ (Mozart) is predictable, very limited, and probably his weakest piano sonata.

The endless Alberti bass is frankly boring in the 2nd movement, and overall, it does Mozart no service to big this sonata up into something it’s not.

ビアノ習い初めて暫くして、必ずといっても良いくらい習う曲。懐かしい思いで拝聴しました。
この曲がきっかけで、モーツァルトに関心持ちました。

@briandang5869

@@MrPhil480 1st movement is mostly difficult in clarity but id argue overall difficult would be 2nd movement which is very musical. And 3rd movement is overall not as hard as the other 2

I would like to know where that sonata is easy ...

@mw11stuff

4y↑27

In all 3 movements. The hardest is probably the rondo and it was only grade 6 a few years ago.

@pianoplaynight

@@mw11stuff let's hear you play it spotlessly. This only LOOKS easy but I confirmed with an international competition winning concert pianist that the amount of constant exposure in this sonata makes it terribly difficult to pull off. All while conveying the beauty in its simplicity. She said it's one of the last sonatas she'd choose for a public performance. "mozart is easy for amateurs and difficult for professionals"

@mw11stuff

4y↑25

@@pianoplaynight you can say that about basically any Mozart sonata, what a moot point. Don't even try to argue that this sonata is not easy, lots of beginners learn it and for a competent pianist it is basically sight readable. Many of the other sonatas are far harder in comparison. I don't need to show you my performance for this to be true.

@pianoplaynight

4y↑10

@@mw11stuff it's technically among the easiest but as I repeat: the amount of exposure in it is largest than most other sonatas by M. Just ask a professional about it. There's much more to a piece than its technical difficulty

@pianoplaynight

@@mw11stuff "the most difficult movement of the Moonlight sonata is the first", "kinderszenen is more difficult than the Fantasy", "voiles is among the most difficult preludes in book 1 by Debussy" - some of the things I've heard over the years from piano professionals and teachers, all of which sounded absolutely silly to me, then I learned about the things that people usually ignore: quality of sound, timbre, exposure, coherence of interpretation, etc etc, so many "hidden" difficulties that arise once you mastered the technical aspect of the music. Funny thing is that even some sight-readable music, like the k545, is actually considered difficult by professionals for non-technical aspects. As I said. Go and ask a professional pianist if they think this is easy, or if they would play this rather than another sonata. I asked a few and the answer was always the same. Wish you a good day.

The title is incorrect; it was published as a Sonata facile.
