Welcome to Leif Ove Andsnes' Official RU-vid Channel!
With his commanding technique and searching interpretations, Leif Ove Andsnes has won worldwide acclaim, performing in the world’s leading concert halls and with its foremost orchestras. An avid chamber musician, he is also the founding director of Norway’s Rosendal Chamber Music Festival.
Following the success of the “Beethoven Journey” collaboration, Andsnes and the Mahler Chamber Orchestra partner for their second multi-year project titled “Mozart Momentum 1785/86” which sees them explore one of the most creative and seminal periods of the composer’s career. In Spring 2021 Sony Classical releases the first of two volumes in the project, featuring Mozart’s piano concertos Nos. 20, 21 and 22 and chamber music written in the same year.
This performance is a demonstration of balance between passionate expressiveness and the purity and simplicity of this piece. Mr. Andsens has approached the piece very studiously and this is why he was able to execute it to near perfection.
Bravissimo! What an impressive finger dynamic control! This lays definitely a standard on how to play the Finnish maestro! If something critical would have to be pointed out the underlining of the melody is perhaps a tad on the heavier side, but that's just an opinion. I only have to ask, is it just me or is Andsnes' pedal changes a bit late in relation to the chord changes at times?
Absolutely correct. I'm a student of beethoven sonatas and I find always there is an enduring/ struggling /trying again/doubt/anger/ urgency/ overcoming spirit in his music. It never comes across as him expounding onto us as a want or need of attention of this from us (like chopin's music can be ). But more like he is expressing himself in music just to himself and we come across this expression as an incidental. If that makes any sense. And no, never ever he expresses self pity.
Absolutely agree! It's as if Andsnes perfectly hears what Sibelius wanted to express, and he puts the perfect emphasis in the right spots. A lot of the other interpretations quiet down on odd stages, or feels "herky jerky" in a way. This one just shines all the way through!
Brilliant interpretation. I wonder how this gem could sound if you have the piano version and the string orchestra version being played on stage, piano and strings.
