About "Piano Sonata in C minor, H.XVI No. 20 : Haydn: Piano Sonata in C minor, H.XVI No. 20: 1. Moderato" by Alfred Brendel

Haydnโ€™s C-minor Sonata opens with a Moderato that is all coiled tension and sudden wit. Brendel balances the stern with the playful, letting the musicโ€™s dramatic pauses hang in the air. Itโ€™s a classical conversation where every silence speaks as loudly as the notes.
