January 11Jan 11 Quite well, except for the speed. I don't understand why there is such a fondness for music at this unnatural speed. Of course, the virtual instrument does whatever you want it to do.
January 12Jan 12 Hi @Cafebabe! It's funny to listen to this with a fast tempo on a fortepiano, but I would say it's completely managable to play. I like the imitation between hands, and variations of rhythmic patterns. Thx for sharing. Henry

I know this tempo is quite unplayable, but since the composition itself is fairly trivial and a bit silly, I felt that presenting it at an unnatural speed made it more entertaining to listen to
January 14Jan 14 From my point of view, it's not about whether it's executable or not. It surely is. It's about the fact that in this style, in this particular piece as it is designed, this speed doesn't sound natural. In addition, to my ears, part of the enjoyment of the music is lost. It's like singing The Beatles' Yesterday at lightning speed. Well, as I said, it's a matter of taste.

But I would say at least in this rendition the tempo is quite common for a Classical period work… The description “As fast as possible” is a bit silly as @Cafebabe wants to achieve, but the tempo here is only a crotchet = 168 and the taped is quite common especially for a last movement of those Classical Sonatas!
