5.0 classicmusichub | September 24th 22

Very probably Mozart's greatest piano composition, a sublime effort that predates Beethoven's early classic works by a decade and change, yet seems clearly linked. The dynamics are tense and fiery, an emotional back-and-forth that may reveal more of Mozart's soul than anything else he ever penned. The second movement, with its soft lilts and pauses, seems particularly inspirational to Beethoven's "Pathetique" sonata from just a few years later.

4.5 superbDoctuses | July 10th 18

I was stunned when I found out this was written by Mozart, I could have sworn it was an early Beethoven sonata. I guess I had heard it and so associated its driving and dark sonorities with Beethoven that I actually forgot it wasn't written by him. This is probably his best sonata or at least top one or two.
