A quick walkthrough of the famous first movement of Beethoven's "Moonlight" Sonata

We look primarily at the second movement of KV 457, a gorgeous cantabile work that needs a full singing tone.

A quite short episode focused on Alexei Nasedkin, one of the best Schubert interpreters

Written in 1815 when Schubert was only 18, this pure orchestral-style work has some amazing compositional ideas. We explore the beginnings of Schubert's twisted harmonic language.

We look at a Sonata from 1818 from Schubert which preceded Brahm's romantic style by many years. Brahms came into possession of many of Schubert manuscripts probably through Robert Schumann who had gone to visit Schubert's brother after the composer's death and came into possession of many of these works.

Schubert's unfinished work from 1817 is etheric and haunting in a way only Schubert could write. We look at a few techniques to bring out different elements in this seemingly skeletal work.

Written in 1787 in Vienna, this work is probably one of the most psychologically-intense works by Mozart

We look at an incredible work, which every few measures puts us in completely different territory. Written at the age of 18-19, this work is quite varied and musically rich.

An exploration of this one of a kind Sonata work.

Mozart's improvisational style was never the same. In this episode we start to look at his arguably hidden framework and style.
