Charles Richard-Hamelin plays Chopin 24 Preludes op. 28 

I didn't think that it was possible, but he has become even more intelligent and sensitive than he was in 2015. Incredible.

I really love his playing style.

I love your music so much!!! I’m waiting for you in Japan.

I ve heard Charles live playing Chopin in Wrocław, 09.09.2023. Since then I am his big fan. Great artist!

He won the first prize in the hearts of the people, INCOMPARABLE. Il a gagné le premier prix du cœur des gens. 😊

Charles Hamelin is an incredibly astute interpreter of Chopin -- what exquisite timing and nuance ! And his tone quality is just right -- never too bright or edgy (which I detest). And then there is his clarity (not over pedalled) and his ability to highlight certain lines and figures. I could go on -- his interpretation of this immortal music moves me deeply ...

Thank you for coming to Osaka. I won't forget your prelude 24 performance you played 12/11. I'd like you to come back next year. We all always welcome you in Osaka!!

Magnifique! Quel bonheur de vous voir jouer! Ça met du baume sur l'air du temps... Merci pour votre générosité!

will meet him tonight in Seoul! so pumped!

That 19th prelude is amazingly prudent!

perfomance in korea It was so so great still in my head❤

A wonderful performance that oozes into the depths of my heart and encourages quiet introspection.

bravo!! what a sound:)

Your piano sound is elegant and comfortable , mature and deep , very healing , I especially like the polonaise you play .

Thank you Chopin,❤️thank you Charles❤️😉,we' ve been listening to your playing yesterday at the Kolarac,and had an memorable evening.Bravo,you are absolutely amazing pianist❤️

This is a great performance. Bravissimo, Charles. 💫💥💫

Richard! So good to hear you! Excellent Chopin as always! Come to Phoenix!

Wonderful and profoundly moving-beautiful playing. I also love you performance of the fm chopin concerto.

Stunning interpretation ! It is impressive how Mr Hamelin can switch from one Prelude to another which is equivalent to switch very fast from one state of mind to another, from joy to pain, from Paradise to Hell..Beautiful sound and phrasing.

Magnifique à entendre. Quel talent!

I was there and it was truly incredible

for me he deserved the first prize in 2015

Enjoyed your performance so much. You should make an album featuring schumann and Babadjanian!

Charles, this is a great performance I'm listening to it to remember your performance in Seoul yesterday

Brilliant! Thank you sir!

Bravooo!!!

Very impressed by the way that last note was played @42:11

Que lindo, Bravo! Parabéns!

Well played sir

I like the pause to reflect between each one ,also the slower considered tempo of some.(maybe also try slower in no 23 to contrast with 24 ? :like julianna avdeeva does) . In 21 he does some lovely effects in the left hand halfway through

😍😍😍😍😍

41:26 Wow, that added some thunder to the passage.

Listen to the first three notes of the melody of Raindrop prelude(15) and then the first three notes on number 24...Like Chopin knew that 15 would be the immortal one and then the last prelude like a darker, more aggressive reminder of it as the finale.
