Brahms: 1. Klavierkonzert ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Lise de la Salle ∙ Andrés Orozco-Estrada 

Apasionada interpretación de la joven pianista francesa Lisa de la Salle, de la que ya no se puede hablar en absoluto de promesa, junto a la solvente orquesta de Frankfurt (posiblemente una de las mejores del mundo en el momento actual) y el extraordinario director Orozco-Estrada. A destacar la seguridad técnica de la pianista, alternando los momentos de virtuosismo con la hondura que siempre nos deja (el posiblemente más innovador compositor del movimiento), maestro Brahms. Excelente

I have never heard Lise de le Salle play before this. An electric performance bringing out all the nuances in the score Herr Brahms intended I'm sure. Maestro Orozco-Estrada, with his joyful command of the orchestra, delivered a fresh interpretation of this majestic concerto I shall return to often.

Why have I just heard Lise de la Salle for the first time? She is world-class and gave me new insight into one of my favorite pieces of music. I have some minor questions about the orchestra but nothing that would mar the enjoyment of this excellent performance.

This is up there with the greatest ever performances of Brahms 1. de la Salle absolutely nails this in every respect - technically for sure, but also in every musical aspect. Wow. This is a fully emotionally committed performance from beginning to end. And Orozco-Estrada also leads an incredibly fine orchestral component. Just wonderful.

I absolutely love her playing. She's dialed in to Johannes.

This Colombian conductor is really tops!!! And naturally, Miss delaSalle. Excellent performance, Congratulations.

she has such a beautiful way of communicating with the orchestra. almost like another orchestra member, or a chamber music approach, highly unusual and beautiful :)

Bravo, Madame! C'est une interprétation très belle! je la trouve similaire à celle de Bruno Gelber!

Thank you Brahms and to all the great members of this symphony who brought this music to life so we could enjoy it.

Excelente interpretación. Gracias sinfonieorchester, gracias youtube y eternas gracias J.S. Brahms!!!!

11:02 the tone of the flute player is almost bell like - it’s so beautiful!

Einfach nur großartig, ....Ja Dankeschön th

Very enjoyable! This young lady has a bright future.

I don´t understand? There's a lot of critics against this FLAWLESS rendition! Maybe cause she's not as famous as Helen Grimaud or Yuja Wang, but I assure you, Lise it's on the same league, shes's a Great Perfomer on Brahms! BRAVO LISE!!! And I hope to hear soon her BRAHMS 2!!! Besides, there's an Excelent Orchestra HR-Sinfonieorchester, and an Excelent Conductor on Andrés Orozco!!!

Beautiful,beautiful!!!!!!!! Lise, orchestra,conductor. Thank you my beloved Brahms!!! Thanks a lot!!

Wonderful Rendition of Lise de Lasalle! Wonderful Orchester (one of my favorites) hr-Sinfonieorchester FRS! And Wonderful Conduction by Orozco Estrada! And BRAHMS... That's it!!!

EXCELENTE interpretación del Concierto para Piano Nº 1 compuesto por el del genial Johannes Brahms por esta prestigiosa orquesta alemana dirigida por el maestro Andrés Orozco-Estrada actuando como solista la virtuosista pianista francesa Lise de la Salle. BRAVO !!!! Saludos desde España.

It is a dramatic first movement in deep grief for the sad passing away of Robert Schumann. Great performance of Lise and this fabulous HR FRANKFURT Sinfonie conducted by Maestro Orozco-Estrada.

Meravigliosa Lise de la Salle, tecnica solida, talento interpretativo superbo.........

Grande Lise de la Salle!! Grande Andrés Orozco! Gran Orquesta HR-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt!!!

Thank you friends, we feel free. good job.

Always for me, Brahms piano 1 is a great story.

another superlative performance from Germany's finest orchestra.

What a wonderful sound. The fire is there from first bars of the piano entrance. Beautiful refinement. 🐚☘️🐚🌻🐚🌻

Magnificent and deeply moving. (I am not a first time listener, but perhaps my first time truly HEARING). This is heaven and hell, complete, beautiful and precise, and with great feeling.

Für mich bleibt die Musik Brahms -und genau dieses Stück ins besondere-eine Riesenwelle die man einfach akzeptieren soll.

What a fantastic pianist !

And I Love Lise de la Salle! Specially on the Brahms Perform of the Piano Concerto Nº1! Hope to hear soon her rendition on Brahms 2!!!

Majestuosa!!!

En este sitio hay tres ejecuciones memorables para mí. Esta es una de ellas, la otra es de la Excelente pianista francesa HELENE GRIMAUD, dirige la orquesta Michael Gielen; la tercera es de la Gran YUJA WANG, dirige Valery Giergiev. Admiro a las tres orquestas, a los tres directores y AMO a las tres pianistas. Pero sin BRAHMS, no sería posible. BRAVO LISE DE LA SALLE!!! Espero escuchar tu interpretación de Brahms piano concerto 2!!! Te envío un afectuoso SALUDO!!!

This is as perfect a performance as I have ever seen. She gets everything right and Orozco-Estrada has the orchestra in perfect cadence. What could be better?

GRANDIOSA LISE DE LA SALLE!!! NECESITAMOS MÁS CONCIERTOS TUYOS!!!

I love this consert! Just now it's Big Slap i Malmö and this it perfect for my ears. I play it loud on sorround! Erica

Maravilloso Brams en este concierto. n 1.

Quelle merveille que cette interprétation, toute pleine de feu ! Lise de la Salle nous entraîne dans sa fougue et son engagement. L'orchestre et le maestro sont excellents. La vidéo est un pure bonheur. Grande réussite. Bravo à tous et merci…

Brahms siempre será identificado a través de sus obras. Peculiares y hermosos los acordes de este gran compositor. Una bella interpretación de Lise de La Salle, tiene alma para tocar a Brahms.

Bravo, Lise!!!

BRAVO!!! LIse De La Salle!!!! Great Great Great!!!!

Fantastic performance!

20:20-22:40 Maravilloso final del maestoso, grande Andrés y grandísima Lise

Full of passion and gusto !

I suppose one never stops learning! I've long, long been a "fan" of Brahms, his symphonies, his Requiem, many (but by no means all) of his choral works...but this my first time with a piano concerto of his. It helps that the personnel here is impeccable: Sr. Orozco-Estrada and Sra. de la Salle, to say nothing about the HR Orchestra. I'm listening further; do keep it up! JAT

What an awesome Concerto! Brilliant performance!

Performance magnifique pour ce concerto pour piano - puissante, tendre, est douce, un réel bonheur. Merci Lise, merci au chef d'orchestre, aux musiciens. C'était sublime.💝

À trente et un ans cette pianiste est déjà tout à fait accomplie dans Brahms, et son interprétation très équilibrée, nuancées, c'est du grand piano, quel tempérament ! On a l'impression que tout lui est possible...

Beautiful, full of emotion.

Ese día Lise de La Salle destapó el pomo de las esencias!!! Vaya ejecución más destacada! BRAVO LADY LISE! Saludos desde México! Gran orquesta y Andrés Orozco excelentes también!!!

What an impressive performance of this magnificent Brahmsconcerto!! Heavenly moments throughout the whole concert thanks to a brilliant Lise de la Salle and an incredible conductor!!

11:22 Wow! I was just speechless!

This was just fabulous!! I loved the way she attacked the outer movements. I was not familiar with her, but will certainly be watching out for her in the future!

¡ Que monumental obra nos dejó el genial Hamburgués !!

Большое спасибо Франкфуртскому оркестру за чудесный концерт!

Truly one of the most EPIC piano concertos that exist. Every time I listen to it I appreciate it more and more.

Please we need more concert renditions of your gifted hands Lady Lise!!!

Beautifully played by the soloist. Orchestra and conductor behind most of the time.

Superb! A masterly performance - as good as I have ever heard this particular piece of music. Thank you for posting.

It is so beautiful. Deeply moving.

Plateia xoxa, a moça tocou o concerto com perfeição.

Perfection. Never heard a better performance of this concerto than this. Lise de la Salle & Andres Orozco-Estrada in perfect unison.

Wundervolle Darbietung der hervorragenden Pianistin Lise de La Salle!!!

Brahms foi uma mostra da luta de um compositor com as forças de seu tempo. Permaneceu fiel a si mesmo em meio às querelas musicais da época. Sofreu e foi vencedor. Esse concerto tem esse tema forte de entrada, tem a tempestade, o ímpeto, e a ternura de quem conhecia bem a música de Bach e de Beethoven. Mas tem e muito uma marca inovadora dentro do romantismo.

Il mio preferito!!! ❤

Beautiful and So Talented Lady! BRAVO!

Orchestra is superb as usual

Muy buen concierto por su coordinada ejecución dirección-solista. Orozco ha crecido a un gran nivel mundial. Lise de la Salle brilla a la altura de los múltiples premios que está obteniendo, no es de extrañar, y a las actuaciones que está desarrollando en las mejores salas del mundo musical. Su interpretación de Brahms es precisa y preciosa, a la vez que delicada y madura. Tiene una proyección enorme dada su juventud (32 años). Enhorabuena. La realización del vídeo es mejorable en algunas fases del concierto. La orquesta está francamente bien, como siempre. Felicidades.

Movements: I - Maestoso = 0:40; II - Adagio = 23:17; III - Rondo: Allegro non Troppo = 36:32.

Brahms climbs to the top of the mountain and sees the whole world.

너무 값진 선물

One of my favourite concertos its mammoth with sweeping waves of emotion a terrific performance both by orchestra and soloist

wonderful version. one of the best if not the best. personally the most convincing along with Zimmerman and Schiff.

Born in Medellín-Colombia, Orozco-Estrada studied music at the Instituto Musical Diego Echavarría and learned to play violin there before taking conducting classes from age 15. Before his seventeenth birthday, he moved to Bogotá to study at the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana de la Compañía de Jesús. He emigrated to Vienna, Austria, in 1997, where he has lived ever since and where, that same year, he began advanced conducting studies at the Hochschule für Musik und darstellende Kunst. His teachers included Uroš Lajovic, successor to Hans Swarowsky.

Great playing

Some other piano concerts I feel separate the piano too much from the orchestra - in this one, I feel like they're much more together and the focus ebbs and flows between them so seamlessly. I like this a lot.

Ill listen to her in Mozarts 20th concerto with my grand daughters tomorrow. Whith the Stockholm philharmonic orchestra. Am I Lucky...

Fabulous performance

Magnifique concerto ! Superbe interprétation !

Wunderschön 😮

Wow! Just love this epic concerto. What an impact it must have been on a public still getting their heads around Beethoven. No chance of the orchestra drowning out the lady pianist there, she has some power..

너무나 아름답습니다 👏👏👏 감동적입니다 🎶

Great Performance..With heart

#Fantástica. Derroche de Virtuosismo dinámico. #LisedelaSalle, Brahms espiritualmente te Abrazará por tan sentido homenaje. Igual con nuestro paisano “Paisa” 🇨🇴 Andrés Orozco-Estrada 🤗🇨🇴🤗

Thank jou, ....

Obrigado amigos e amigas musicistas!

Nice rendition. When listening to this I feel that she really knows what she's playing.

Finally, the size of the fight is there. The letting go of emotions at any cost to attack the wall inside even at a level hysterically.

Tolle Solistin, ich bewundere das Auswendigspiel !♥

A splendid performance by my favourite hr-S, Andrés (he's a real conductor unlike some others) and Ms de la Salle. Also nice to see Florin as Second Concertmaster. The production crew did a superb job recording this performance. They even showed a little bit of the pedal point in the double basses in the second movement during the "organ chords" before the winds come in with the climax. Some of these comments are interesting (I'm being polite). There's a group here that I call the classical music armchair critics. They seem unable to enjoy a performance because they're too busy trying to find something wrong with it and nitpicking it to death, often measure by measure. They ruin classical music for a lot of people. I enjoy watching and listening to a performance -- seeing it is very special to me -- and I don't like theatrics from the artists. Ms de la Salle uses what I call floating arms throughout. Some here have referred to it as "flying arms" but there's nothing flying. They're more like floating arms supposedly to reduce the tension in the arms. But does it really? The problem with that thinking is that it *requires tension* to hold the arms up like that. The arms are supposed to be down by one's side and very relaxed when not playing. By one's side is the most tension-free position for the arms, not being held up (by tension) high above the keyboard. To me, it's a needless form of theatrics but it's her thing. I don't recall seeing anybody else do that. She considered among the best pianists I presume otherwise she wouldn't be managed by the prestigious HarrisonParrott Limited. They only have the finest musicians in their roster. She does play superbly; I could just do without the needless theatrics. One final thing: I wonder when performances will rid themselves of the double standard in performance attire between the genders? Females (particularly soloists) can come out on stage half-naked -- I have no problem with nudity but am making a point here -- or wearing what looks like lingerie, but if a male musician did the same by wearing an elegant-looking tank top, for example, or anything that "shows skin," he'd be asked to go home and change and his attire would be considered "highly inappropriate for a performance." Why is it "highly inappropriate" for him but not for the female who can be showing deep cleavage and half of the back of her dress cut out? I have seen countless performances where the female soloists (vocal or instrumental) can be pretty much naked from the waist up. Guys? They're covered up from head to toe like a monk. Quite a double-standard that needs to be addressed. Danke. UPDATE: I just wanted to say this because I hadn't watched all of the last movement of the piece before I wrote my earlier comment. Ms de la Salle is, in my mind, the perfect artist. She's extremely humble and modest; no hint of arrogance at all, despite all of her accomplishments. She's like Andrés in that respect. He's the same way. He doesn't like attention and takes a brief bow, of course, but he always tries to give the credit for their superb performances to the orchestral musicians before him and it's obvious that he deeply admires the musicians before him. How could you not with these outstandingly superb musicians?! And I admire that in him greatly. Well, Lise did the same thing. She got up from the piano and gave a brief hug to Andrés, then she went over and shook hands with both Concertmasters (she knew that the hr-S have two Concertmasters; not everyone seems to know that or have done their research on that), and then she turned around and applauded the orchestral musicians. She looked extremely humble and modest and was even looking down at the floor rather than "Everyone look at me; I'm the star." No, there was none of that from her. She seemed to be going out of her way to give the attention not to herself but to the hr-S. I loved that about her. Other pianists would be trying to make it all about them. Not Lise or Andrés. They were well-matched and seemed to work beautifully together. I'm very pleased that hr-S decided to feature Lise as an artist. Again, danke. Oh, someone commented about "the handful of wrong notes." What were you listening to and commented on the wrong channel? I didn't hear a wrong note in the entire concerto and I know the piece well as I've heard the Brahms First too many times to count. It's one of my favourites of the repertoire. I did listen to another well-known pianist play this concerto about a week ago and he had a couple of splats/wrong notes in his in those passages where the right hand has those treacherous jumps up the keyboard where the pianist has to closely watch themselves otherwise: SPLAT!, but I just brushed it off. Why did Brahms put those in there? To make it even more difficult. But it was no big deal. Anyone who can play this piece in performance, they are allowed a couple of splats. But again, I heard no mistakes in this performance.

I've always been a fan of the finally movement, beautifully played.

Why only 303 likes? It should be 303 million likes, at least!

Full of emotion and enthusiasm, a very touching performance despite the handful of wrong notes

13:33 I like the audience guy’s reaction

Magical.

17:30 poco più moderato from this, it's very beautiful and touching.

En ualmindelig smuk, følsom og kraftfuld koncert.Flot spillet.....

Likewarm response on a top class play

Beautiful concert

Lyriische Aufführung dieses perfekt konstruierten Konzerts mit anmutigem Anschlag des Soloklaviers und gut phrasierten Töne anderer Instrumente. Der geniale Maestro leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo mit effektiver Dynamik. Das ist auch Brahms!

Amazing,thanks!

Super Solistin

Maravilha!
