 | Easy or medium by anonymous on May 19th, 2008 |
| I love the music and I think this piece should be medium or at least easy/medium, I can play some of the medium rated songs on this web page, and I can play this one as well, and I think those have the same difficulty level than this one. |  |  | Simply beautiful music by anonymous on January 30th, 2008 |
| Review: As is the case with nearly all Mozart pieces - it is hard not to fall in love with this one - its sheer simplicity and charm. When I play it I try to immitate the interpretation of Mitsuko Uchida which I heard once on the radio. I think she managed to reveal the full artistic value of this piece through her delicate touch, clarity of tone and strict adherence to the rythm. Go on - buy this music; you do not need to be a virtuoso to play this Sonata well what is needed is just a little sensitivity. |  |  | Very Easy by anonymous on January 21st, 2008 |
| It was very easy to use. No problems!!! |  |  | Deceptive facility by Danesh Bharucha on June 19th, 2007 |
| Why this delightful work was ever called the 'Sonata Facile' is a mystery. Most dilettante pianists will confirm that it isn't all that 'facile', and though a standard item in the amateur pianist's repertoire, the K545 is, in fact, a deceptively tricky piece to master.
The first movement is the one everybody knows and loves. It starts in C Major, later flowing into a passage in F major. The Alberti bass in the left hand is easy enough to execute ; however, the trills and scales (in both hands)are not.
The second movement starts in G major, and is perhaps the easiest to play acceptably well. However,the third movement is definitely fraught with little traps. Its bouncy tempo and the fact that sections of it are played with much gusto and volume, make it almost a work apart.
This little sonata epitomizes the grace and charm of the best of eighteenth century salon music. For the most magical rendition, listen to Mitsuko Uchida's interpretation. | Add your own review!
