Who knew that a slightly honky-tonk piano could still produce such an enjoyable experience with Chopin. The performance was quite impressive, very clean.
Les non spécialistes comme moi trouvent que ce piano sonne très très bien! De plus une musique " militaire" doit être jouée sur un piano basique, un piano de garnison. Non, la seule question que je me pose c'est: est-ce que ses hauts talons ne la gênent pas? Ou encore: des Louboutin peuvent-ils améliorer le toucher d'une artiste?
She clearly breathes this music! It's probably the best I've heard! Most pianists rush through Chopin Polonaises, pounding out the notes - technically perfect but without understanding its lines- where it's going or how it returns home- and triumphantly so! I played this piece in my early teens, but only now see the difference the pianist makes! Bravo!
Loved the comment about the forearms burning. I played this work at my last recital in 1969 and my piano teacher did not attend because she was jealous that I could handle the long reach chords Chopin used and she had small hands and could not. Still love listening to this piece.
When it sounds well played Chopin I immediately imagine beautiful Polish landscapes. This is how Chopin created his music, imagining beautiful Polish landscapes.
Steyr Austria is where I was born, in 1952. Thank you for playing there. Why such small gatherings; you could fill Concert Halls! You play with such ease and passion; you have truly mastered the piano and understand the music.
Very moving performance! I thoroughly enjoyed it and it appears that you were also having an enjoyable time. Thank you again for sharing your wonderful talent!
non seulement ' LA BELLE ' nous fait le plaisir de pouvoir cette pièce super. Et si mangnifiquement bien jouée ! Mais ! Nous illumine par sa beauté dont ses mains dansent sur le clavier ! Tout cela est donc, un magnifique régal. Merci.
Powerful and very pleasant chords, crystal clear notes, well-emphasized melody and a slavic super beautiful presentation! All the best, thank you for sharing!
ce que j'admire le plus chez cette magnifique pianiste c'est que toutes les notes de ses accords restent parfaitement perceptibles et procurent un merveilleux enchantement...
on parle musique non plastique, il faut fermer les yeux . Je sais certains préfèrent Yuja Wang à Valentina Lisitsa privée de commentaires ! Le Marché a choisi, comme il a choisi Khatia Buniatishvili qui est à elle seule un catalogue Glamour, rouge à lèvres bijoux, tenues et Aubade à la limite de l'incident mais là aussi je ferme les yeux et reconnaît en elle une excellente pianiste...
Hello Anastasia, I really love your interpretation ! I played that too fifteen or twenty years ago, I don't remember well, but what I remember is that I liked this Polonaise a lot. When I saw you smile from time to time, it remembered me that I smiled too when I played it. It's very enjoyable, not only as music but also technically. There are few other pieces that made me feel that (like that, I would say Orage or the first Étude transcendante, the fifth and the eighth Étude-Tableau Op.33, mmmmh, I really love to play those). All the body is involved, not only the hands. And the brains too, of course. I always have shivers when I listen to this piece, no exception with your interpretation. I saw that somebody in the comments didn't like the sound of the piano but it's not my opinion. It's refreshing to hear a Fazioli rather than a Yamaha or a Steinway, even if it's not perfectly tuned. That sounds very clear, forte without being to loud and much more "musique de salon" (and it was what Chopin himself liked). You manage to keep not only an intimate feeling but also the martial aspect of this Polonaise and I really love the mix ! And that rythm… It's not even human. I'm sure you eat a metronome every morning with your cereals ! :D In one word : it was fan-tas-tic ! W.
This melody hooked me on classical for life and here I am at 89 and still loving it !! A girlfriend of mine was a classical pianist and deserves all the credit Janie Mason,, Roanoke ,, Va.
I prefer listening to it than playing it. It's quite difficult to learn it. Fantastic playing. I would say that this is one of the best performances of this piece I've ever heard 👏👏👏💕🎹
I admire her piano skills, no question. Looking at the lady from the side you might think she just came from a swim with something thrown over her swimming costume, plus the high heels.
Great performance, I love the light swagger you add to the rhythm. The Fazioli sounded a bit off, maybe the tuning at the top end, normally they sound much richer. Please make more videos. Many thanks.
Hermosa muchacha, personalidad y talento. Te felicito, porque me ha encantado tu estilo, realmente maravillosa. Interpretar la Polonesa Militar, es algo muy especial para mi. Me ha sensibilizado mucho, verte y escucharte, ha sido una gran emoción. Saludos de Mexico.
You come in three weights: pounds, carats, and, karats, my assessment ............ you AND your music will be welcome in Heaven one of these days ! ......... I will STILL be listening to you ! .......................................................................Bob
Wow ausgezeichnet gespielt finde ich eines der schönen Chopinstücke, das ich mal in der Eurythmie in der Schulzeit wöchentlich gehört hatte, und danach gelaufen bin (Choreographie). Leider wußte ich den Namen nicht mehr, es gab auch andere Stücke von ihm, zB den Trauermarsch, ua. das war mein Abschlußstück und in dem neuen Saal in Reutlingen zur Einweihung, und der Gründerlehrer der Schule, der schon 39 Jahre das kennt sagte, das wäre das beste gewesen, was er an Eurythmie gesehen habe. Dankeschön, ich höre es mir mehreremale an, jetzt schon 4 x.
