Il gandissimo maestro Michelangeli raggiunge vette inattese di perfezione esecutiva ed espressiva..sono in ascolto da ore ma non sono mai sazio della sua Musica
Avete Celentano, Bud Spencer e Terrence Hill = Mario Giroti, almeno ci fanno ridere. Per non dimenticare il Grande Mercuzio, un youtubista, Perry Como, Liberace, Frank Sinatra e Dean Martin, tutti italiani bravi.
This concerto is a rare gem. I played it for the first time as a 13 or possibly 14 y.o. kid but it is only now that I can appreciate it fully in this marvelous, ethereal rendition, thanks to Divino Arturo!
I so love the fact that Michelangeli played several works of Haydn :-) There are so many pianists that they never even studied one work of Haydn. That is not good, Haydn was such a great composer.
As a matter of fact, he played only two piano concertos, not much for a composer who wrote more than 50 piano sonatas... anyway, these two concertos are played superbly.
ABM not The greatest! The greatest pianists of All Time Are really Artur Rubinstein ( The God) Grigory Sokolov ( The Titan The Giant of The piano) Emil Gilels ( The King) Wilhelm Kempff ( The most beautiful piano sound Ever!) Sviatoslav Richter Mikhail Pletnev ( The most Powerful Prokoviev piano concerto no 1) Radu Lupu ( Brahms piano concerto no 1 with The Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra from 1996 video RU-vid! Lupu a class of his own playing Brahms) Stanislav Igolinsky ( Better than Lipatti) Alexei Lubimov ( The Genius) Solomon Cutner ( structure of music) Maurizio Pollini Vladimir Ashkenazy ( The most volcanic colorful piano sound ever)
This is HEAVENLY!! Actually the first piano concerto of Haydn i've ever heard, incredible as that may seem, lol!! At his best, as in this wonderful work, Haydn was right up there in the same league as Mozart - well, at least quite close!! Thanks for uploading this deliscious bonbon!!!
well not even close,but higher in terms of music-emotional expression...Everything you hear in his music appears later in Motzart and in Beethoven even more...Beethoven admired J.H. and devoted several works to him.
ABM played The second-rated concertos like Mozart piano concerto no 15 Haydn concerto G major Liszt piano concerto no 1! ABM never played The Best piano concertos like Chopin piano Concertos 1-2! Rachmaninov piano concertos 1-3! Prokoviev piano concertos 1-3? Tchaikovsky piano Concerto no 1! Mozart 24 Bach Concerto no 1 ( 1052)! He played The second-rated concertos because the greatest pianists were much Better than ABM! The greatest pianists of All Time Are really Artur Rubinstein ( The God! The golden tone) Grigory Sokolov ( The Titan The Giant of The piano! Sokolov The most Vital rhythmic vitalness ( unbeatable vitalness! Sokolov The most Titanic Ever) Emil Gilels ( The King! The Best piano sound Ever) Wilhelm Kempff ( The most beautiful piano sound Ever) Radu Lupu ( The most colorful piano sound Ever) Sviatoslav Richter Mikhail Pletnev ( The most Powerful Ever) Alexei Lubimov ( The big Genius Ever) Grigory Sokolov vs ABM 1000-0 Sokolov Brahms piano concerto no 2 and Chopin piano concerto no 2 against ABM Rachmaninov piano concerto no 4! Sokolov The SUN! ABM The MOON!!
I find some of the criticism here on Michelangeli's performance harsh. His style of playing may have a certain restraint, but it's certainly not unmusical in my opnion.
Please , can anybody tell me if this is the concerto no 4 HOB. XVIII/4 (1770) or the other one in G no 9 Hob. XVIII/9 (1767) There is some disorder in the classification . Thanks for your help . Maybe SCARTATUM is the most "inteilegent" in this case , I hope so .
Not True! ABM never played the Best piano concertos like Mozart 24 Brahms 1-2 Chopin 1-2 Prokofiev 1-3 Rachmaninov 1-3 Saint-Saens no 2 Tchaikovsky no 1 JS Bach 1052! ABM was a Cyborg Human machine! The greatest are Really=Artur Rubinstein Emil Gilels Radu Lupu Sviatoslav Richter Solomon Cutner Grigory Sokolov Maurizio Pollini!!
"negative loaded energy" ?? Maestro Mombeek's goal is to make us understand the opposite: the Beauty of real Music! Do you call that "negative", too ?? His reference: real musical talent.
Wel, wist ge dat Richter KRITIEK had op Michelangeli ?! Echt waar!! Hij zei dan (mor ni jin tflom zeej): "Maar allez, elk stukje beeldt toch iets anders uit! En bij Michelangeli klinkt alles steeds maar hetzelfde..."
If they found a way to compress this as tablets, the entire sleeping pill industry would go out of business. Just had a super beauty sleep owing to this. Thanks a lot. PS i sleep better still to Eb-maj or a-minor pieces. Funny, i wonder why. Cheers, good morning.
Yes, I 'grew up' with this recording and many others, too. I never liked it, but now I dislike it even much more than when I was young. Regards from Belgium in autumn, Geert Dehoux, pianist.
ABM not The greatest! The greatest pianists Ever really Are Artur Rubinstein Grigory Sokolov Emil Gilels Radu Lupu Mikhail Pletnev Sviatoslav Richter Wilhelm Kempff Maurizio Pollini Vladimir Ashkenazy Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinsky Solomon Cutner!

ABM The Mechanical King!!
Buiten enkele indrukwekkende details, is deze uitvoering één van de zovele ijskoude, antipathieke realisaties van Benedetti. Geen muziek, alleen noten, robotachtig, als een machine. Wat is de zin hiervan ? Geen.
blithering idiot ! i don`t need anything like a magic interpretation but music ! nothing less than sheer " cold " music . if you are in need of any schmaltzy tearjerker choose a different music-channel . embarking on michelangeli means straightforward abnegation of any sentimentality , yes even of any interpretation whatsoever . listening to michelangeli imparts the experience of a miracle : music by itself !
ABM played The second-rated concertos like Mozart piano concerto no 15 Haydn concerto G major Liszt piano concerto no 1! ABM never played The Best piano concertos like Chopin 1-2 Brahms 1-2 Prokoviev 1-3 Rachmaninov 1-3 Mozart 24! Because ABM The Great machine player! ABM The Mechanical King!
