Today we’re talking about how to teach the first movement of the Sonatina in C Major Op.36, No.3 by Muzio Clementi. This is a fun, spirited movement with scintillating scales.

So glad you mention that edit with the F# and F natural. That's so funny as I have definitely heard it both ways and always felt confused and forgot to look it up!

Always wonderful insights! Thanks, Janna! You may already teach from the RCM syllabus, but those can be so frequently taught and may be super helpful for lots of teachers doing pedagogy exams and teaching that repertoire!

YES. Love 2-4 for that lateral motion too! Awesome insights here.

I should have mentioned that this is on the RCM list level 7. I do not use the RCM exams, but I love looking at the large syllabus for repertoire ideas!

Are there syncopated bars in this piece? Just so I know I have had exposure as I learned this (still work in progress)... I play it every day!

@JannaWilliamson 4 ай бұрын

No, the rhythm in this movement is quite straight. Syncopation requires shifting of the emphasis to an off beat, or accents on a weak beat.

Hi Jana, I heard other versions on the piece with the trill starting on the written note but not the note above. Is that wrong then? Does playing the note above apply only to the baroque and classical periods only? There are many versions of articulation marking. How do I know which is the right one to follow? Thank you!

@JannaWilliamson 10 ай бұрын

Regarding the trill: performance practice became "popular" in the 1970's and 1980's (or somewhere around there!), and trends in ornament realization have changed over time. So, yes, you might hear older recordings start on the principal note. In Clementi, there aren't that many options for articulation; many editions have similar markings. I'd direct you to that scholarly edition by Arthur Houle linked in the video description. For more information on ornamentation, take a look at this book: amzn.to/3ZuuXj7

Brilliant discussion (as always!). Love working with Clementi, juxtaposed with Mozart 🌞.

@JannaWilliamson 11 ай бұрын

Thank you for watching! And yes, this is great preparation for Mozart down the road. 😊

@@JannaWilliamson Thanks for the great video. Is it possible to say where you begin with Mozart?

@JannaWilliamson 11 ай бұрын

@@martinpianoteacher oh sure. I love the Viennese Sonatinas - these are mid to upper intermediate, depending on the individual sonatina/movement. Once a student has done some of those or other more difficult sonatinas (or even Beethoven Op.49, No.2), they can handle Mozart K.283. That’s my favorite first Mozart Sonata. K.545 or K.282 also can work as first sonatas.
