One of the most beautiful of the Sonatas of Beethoven.

[Yuliana_lisova]

Beautiful performance ❤️ I wish Beethoven never died 😥 The best of the best.

Loved every minute of your performance. It was so moving.

[geofflittler]

A truly beautiful piece of music played absolutely beautifully. So much expression. So much talent. My ears and my soul thank you for this.

[ninethstringvc]

This melody is, most certainly, one of the most beautiful I've ever listen. And it's superbly played!

[johnswimcat]

If this man is as good a teacher as he is a pianist his students are very fortunate. This is a world class performance without any doubt. Every time I listen to this I hear more in it. It takes courage to listen to it with an open heart, let alone play or compose it

[gpfkdutls]

Wow this version is far the best Ive heard!

[Rosangela]

Thank you! Lovely performance. Tears and smiles.

I was directed here from your comment under Valentina Lisitsa. What a pleasant surprise. Amazing!

[enzocai]

Great example Mr. I am playing this song for competition this summer and it is great to have an idea of what it should sound like.

I wish I had the opportunity to learn piano as a kid. I thought it would’ve been “nerdy” then, but hearing stuff like this is so badass!

[Yuliana_lisova]

Amazing! I’m in love ! The best i’ve heard!!!!

[Diviine_xoxo]

The internal storm expressed through music. Great interpretation.

[carolcollins]

Thank you Beethoven and Ashley Wass, masters of the flow and would like that piano for Christmas please Carolx

I have a feeling Beethoven would have liked this a lot more than Lisitsa's posting on YouTube. This is much more expressive, quite different. This isn't easy listening but it's a superb performance. There's a lot more to this piece than I had realised. I knew Schubert was dangerous, now I have Beethoven to contend with as well!

❤ SE POTESSI SCEGLIERE UNA EMOZIONE A CUI ASSOCIARE QUESTO MELODIOSO CAPOLAVORO, DIREI CHE È LA NOSTALGIA . ❤

❤ LA MAESTRIA DEL PIANISTA POI È INSUPERABILE ..
DA PELLE D'OCA ❤

❤ ASCOLTANDOLA, MI ANNULLO . ❤

I wanna listen to this while laying in the grass watching the clouds in the mountains...

[FernandoZamora-sk]

a beautiful movement, played very amateurish but expressively with real emotion.

[CorleyHutton]

Great performance. I know it must have taken hours of hard work, but what a payoff!

[suedavies-young]

Virtuosity of technique over feeling - i would never use this as a model for my students. Listen to Grigory Sokolov instead.
