The second part just hits me every time I listen. As soon as the piano starts at 11:01, I am in flood of tears. The Oboe just takes it to a different dimension. This invokes deep feeling of yearning for me which I don’t even know exists. It kind of reminds me of all the years of pain, hardships and sorrows I have endured all my life. This is truly a masterpiece and I can see why it is one of the most popular classical piece of music.
Die Kameraführung finde ich nicht gut. Immer diese Fixierung auf die Korpusmitte des Cellos - hätte gerne mehr die linke Hand des Künstlers gesehen bzw. das Gesamtbild des Solisten mit seinem Instrument
Such a magnificent work. Especially good to see Peter Donohoe play the outrageously difficult piano part with such bravura. Cynthia Millar, as always, is the expert on the ondes Martenot part. Feel the final chord needs to go on a bit longer. Strange camera work at the end - why the long shot? Why not show us the soloists / conductor taking their well earned applause?
Großartig.....ganz anders als die Aufführung mit Gergejiev....nicht besser, nicht schlechter, aber er hat für sich neue Melodienbögen in diesem Konzert entdeckt, wie man sie vorher noch nicht gehört hat....was für ein epischer Künstler
Extremely gifted and passionate young artists! Thanks. I have shared these pieces so often! On my playlist! As an artist who has heard this before several times, never have I heard it played so passionately. Kudos!
It's just great to see that Peter Donohoe can still play such difficult stuff.... There is an excellent recording of "Turangalîla" from 1986 with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Simon Rattle as conductor and P. Donohoe as pianist. The Ondes M. was then played by Tristan Murail.
We admire and love Fazil Say for the wonderful performances he gives us, but also for his rich and remarkable compositional work. Thank you, and greetings to you from Greece...
