An unstoppable duo - Reacting to BRAHMS: PIANO CONCERTO No.2 Op.83 KRYSTIAN ZIMERMAN,L.BERNSTEIN 

As a teenager, Brahms was introduced to Liszt who offered to include him among his group of followers, but only on the condition that Brahms changed his traditional approach. Brahms refused, however, and the two were later characterized by critics as mortal enemies. But Liszt never held a grudge. Shortly after Brahms published his second piano concerto, Liszt wrote him a letter requesting a copy of the manuscript, respectfully addressing him as 'Master'.

One of the best first movements of a concerto. Bernstein and Zimmerman is a legendary duet.

YESSSSS ❤ CERTIFIED CLASSIC 🙌🙌👌This work alone would put Brahms among the GREATS. You’ll love it, very excited for the rest. You can also listen in this format (Bernstein/ Zimerman) to all Brahms (2) and Beethoven concertos (5), all amazing works incredibly performed 😊

I recommend to listen to movements 3 and 4 in one video, cause mvt 4 is quite short

I loved this! First time hearing this piece. So good.

one of the most beatiful and great piano concertos. My favorite since 90's when I Know it, in classical radio of Colombia.

About Zimerman´s age, he was born December 6, 1956 in Zabrze, Poland.

thanks for doing my request 🙂

Excelente Interpretación! dos gigantes musicales tocando un excelente concierto para piano. De hecho Zimerman recientemente fue galardonado por el premio imperial de Japón, uno de los más exclusivos.

!Tienes que reaccionar a los dos conciertos para piano de Chopin con Zimerman dirigiendo! De hecho, los miembros de la orquesta fueron seleccionados a dedo por Zimerman y el estaba dirigiendo y tocando el piano. En verdad es una interpretación perfecta, desde mi punto de vista.

Gidi, Hello from Japan! I just heard your Japanese "Subarashii" ww and made me big smile. I found your channel about a month ago and since then I have been enjoying the music journey with you. Thank you for making wonderful and joyful content. And here is my reaction request. Please try one of the performances by Nobuyuki Tsujii, who is world famous "blind" pianist from Japan. He lost his eyesight, but I believe God gave him something beyond visible and his performance is like gifts from divine. (I might put some of my recommendation pieces later on at Reddit)

Chopin piano cincerto 1 is amazing you nust react to this (:

Epic

Please react to Mozart Piano Concerto No. 20 K466

Gidi can you please react to some Shostakovich symphony? I recommend No. 5. The guy wrote 15 of them! Most of them masterpieces

You should watch older Zimerman perform. Beethoven.

Still waiting for Mozart's,keep it up

Please react to Liszt s.140 no 4b i belive its the hardest Liszts piece

Brahms is an interesting case for me. He was never a favorite composer of mine. Far from that. I think he is symphonic writing is very heavy in a bad way and very string-focused. His solo piano works aren't that interesting either. And he rarely wrote good melodies too. Howeverrrr, this piano concerto is very good. The first 2 movements are thrilling and exciting as hell. If only the 3rd movement wasn't the most boring thing you have ever heard in your life, and the 4th was a little bit more dramatic like a proper finale, it would be a very good concerto. But yeah this movement at least is amazing
