Under the direction of Klaus Mäkelä, pianist Daniil Trifonov were spectacular! Bravo! As Martha Argerich once said about Trifonov: "He has everything and more … tenderness and also the demonic element. I never heard anything like that". Very true, indeed.
Это просто потрясающе!!! Все восхищает: и юные оркестранты, и их жизнерадстный и очень талантливый дирижер.А главное Даниил...Это такое счастье услышать в его исполнении концерт Брамса.И в каком исполнении!? Я так рада за Вас, Данечка. Петербург.
Er ist mein absoluter Favorit ! Wenn ich die Aufnahmen der vergangenen grossen Pianisten anhöre die ich früher geliebt habe bin ich immer etwas enttäuscht.
Welches Glück ,diese jungen Musiker in ihrer Spielfreude zu sehen und hören ! Die Schönheit und Tiefe dieses Brahms Konzertes wird voll zur Geltung gebracht - durch Daniil Trifonov's sensiblen unvergleichlich berührenden Spiel - des jungen meisterlichen und einfühlsamen Klaus Makela und den überzeugenden Musikern ! Die meiner Meinung nach völlige Harmonie des Zusammenspiels ist hör - und spürbar. 💐💐💐💐 Danke Richard !
My favorite piano concerto, with one of the best adagios one can hear. Played expertly by Daniil Trifonov, like every work he performs, it is indeed a very enjoyable concert.
I have watched the genius of Trifonov for a long time and this wonderful Concerto is no exception! Not forgetting the great way Makela conduct's. Super performance!
Really? To my ear, the conductor and Daniil... are at odds... with one another... for some reason I don't understand. But, in the end, I trust Daniil... will find a way... through this performance.. This isn't Daniil playing but Johannes. Listen... again. And remember.
The young cellist turning to his colleague and saying "Wow" at the end said it all!! Brilliant performance, looking forward to seeing Trifonov playing the same concerto in Toronto this week.
@@jacquieviegas6082 I'm just in Here, writing a second Comments, because it's so magnificient with this Young Maestro and Orchestra. Daniil, my favourite Pianist seems to be the "Senior" with 32 Years !
This is probably my favourite concerto with its magnificent piano entry into first movement and the whole work is sheer magic. There are many fine performances and this is one from the excellent Daniel Trifonov.
I'd like to see just one person compose a work LIKE THIS today. Just one. Keeping with the same kind of harmonic range and structural constraints, like nothing newer had been done. Is that possible?
J’adore Trifonov…. Une vraie légende…. Mais…. Il y a là quelque chose de l’ordre du manque de partage et d’écoute et de dialogue, comme si le tempo senti par le chef ne correspondait pas à celui de Trifonov. Un piano qui chante comme rarement mais pour moi trop en avant…. La prise de son p-e…. En même temps il faut l’avoir jouer des centaines de fois et avoir avant chaque concert un certain nombre de répétitions… et clairement là, ils se cherchent en permanence sans jamais vraiment se trouver ! Cela étant dit ça reste à mes yeux un génie absolu ce garçon !
je trouve que c'est tout à fait juste. La prise de son n'est pas très bonne, et surtout ne permet pas d'entendre la riche orchestration de Brahms, le son n'est pas bien fondu, et c'est peut-être aussi la salle qui n'a pas l'air d'avoir une acoustique adéquate. Ceci dit, dans un festival on n'a pas d'orchestre régulier mais plutôt des instrumentistes à la pige qui ne se connaissent pas et ne connaissent pas le chef d'orchestre, et il ne doit pas y avoir beaucoup de temps pour répéter ... donc ça marche quand même, mais ça pourrait être mieux.
I'm a big Trifonov fan. There's nothing the man can't play, no technical passage in the repertoire that would give him much trouble. This concerto is very difficult, though compared with some of the other music Trifonov tackles, it's a walk in the park. Still, this is not my favorite performance of this piece by a long shot. In the first movement, when he arrived at the Hymn-like section in F Major, my eyes opened up wide and I said "oh no!". He just kind of banged it out like it was nothing special. When the same theme reappears at 17:49 it gets slightly better treatment for a couple of bars before he goes back to the same boring treatment. Anyway - it's not how I, a lowly milling pianist, hears it (nor do most of the greats who've recorded it over the decades). There are many other places in the concerto where I'm left scratching my head over this performance. But there are also spots that are truly astounding. I'll have to circle back and listen again when I'm not so tired. Maybe I'll change my mind. I just stumbled on this recording for the first time tonight.
Ich gebe Ihnen recht. Ich bin auch ein ganz großer Trifonov Fan, aber hier wirkt er etwas emotionslos, genau erkennbar bei den von Ihnen genannten Stellen. Auch Genies haben Tage, an denen sie vielleicht nicht so inspiriert sind, woran auch immer das liegen mag.
@@michaelreich2306 nach meiner bescheidenen Meinung hat er sich sicht- und hörbar sehr wohl gefühlt mit diem Dirigenten der auch sein Freud ist und dem jungen spielfreudigen Orchester. Er sucht aber immer seinen eigenen Zugang zu jedem Musikstueck. Das kann man mögen oder nicht - aber Emotionlosikeit war es sicherlich nicht. Er ist wie immer völlig konzentriert in der Musik.
...und scheint mir aber in letzter Zeit (Soloabend in München) etwas exzentrisch zu werden. Wäre schade, wenn er abdriftet. Der Rameau gefühlt 20 Minuten lang im pinissimo, leise, wie im Traum murmelnd, begann dieser Klavierabend in der Isarphilharmonie, mit der a-Moll-Suite aus dem "Premier livre de pièces de clavecin" von Jean-Philippe Rameau. Der Mozart kühl, wie von Wachs überzogen ausgestellt. Trifonov hat die Persönlichkeit eines, wenn man es auf ein Paradoxon bringen wollte, introvertierten Extremvirtuosen. Die nach der Pause auch den Zugang zu Beethovens "Hammerklaviersonate" prägt. Für Trifonov gibt es hier nichts Forderndes, nichts technisch Unerreichbares. Was zugleich ein Problem ist, weil damit auch das Prozesshafte, das Ringende der Musik verschwindet, in eine Reihe von Traumzuständen zergeht, zumal sich Trifonov ähnlich wenig wie bei Rameau für den Kontrapunkt interessiert. Und zum Auftreten- er rennt aufs Podium, verbeugt sich im Laufen, setzt sich an den Flügel und beginnt in den Applaus des Publikums hinein zu spielen - sehr seltsam. Unfähig, den Beifall des Publikums entgegenzunehmen, wie schade! @@elisabethbaumer-sn8go

Stunning playing from Daniil. But the camera angles avoided viewers seeing if he was emotionally and not just technically involved. We could see the emotional involvement of the conductor and there appeared to be a marked difference between the two.
You're absolutely right! I, too, was wondering about that. For me, Daniil is some kind "force," a force... from higher worlds than can be perceived, felt and heard. He seems to function as some kind of a medium or ether through which the spirit of the composer can once again be heard upon earth. This is some kind of a sacred power given to but few.
@@hvanngil9575 Please... answer me. What do you mean by: "Can't you hear it? What do you mean by "it"? Did this seeming conflict between Daniil and the conductor... distract from your listening experience. Thank you.... Hyan.
@@charlesdavis7087 "... if he [Trifonov] was emotionally [...] involved" it is not necessary (for me) to see it. If you can't see it, maybe it's because of the curtain of his hair. I feel Daniil's emotional fire, whether with open or closed eyes.

I do love Trifonov and he is a very sensitively virtuosic pianist, but I wish he could take more of his time over the Brahms 1 and Chopin 1 concertos - some pianists have a tendency to speed up due to nervousness when they play with orchestras
Je voudrais ajouter à mon message ci- dessous une recommandation. Écoutez ce concerto de Brahms par le pianiste Clifford Curzon. L’orchestre et le pianiste sont d’une complicité incroyable, et l’interprétation est magnifique. On ferme les yeux, et la musique nous submerge. P. R.
I love Trifonov, but this performance leaves me a bit cold. I'm used to Rudolf Serkin's tempos and this just drags a bit too much in places for my taste.
STRANGE, STRANGE, STRANGE MASTERPIECE! I avoided it for years. Except when I heard it live about thirteen years ago at Meyerhoff Hall in Baltimore, Md. I was confident Andre Watts performance would provide the clarification and consequently, the understanding I needed to embrace this austere work. I have since learned to love and admire it. PWG. P.S. Only, the powerfully distracting “splice-lapses” are kind of crazy.
@@rravvia Austere; is a reference to the novel, and severe spirit and psychology of the first movement. The crashing introduction on the tympani, the almost screeching nature of the theme struck by the strings affected me in a terrifying way. From a child I was peculiarly sensitive to music in a minor mode. The first movement of this concerto epitomized the psychological dread I experienced with pieces of this nature. Again, as I learned more about the source of inspiration for this great work and Brahms relationship with Robert Schumann in particular, the terror has since been replaced by the joy of understanding and being able to flow with such a pinnacle of the piano repertory. PWG
@@paulgreen6921 I'm just not so familiar with the word, I suppose. I tend to think of it more like Franck and cathedrals, while this concerto is filled with a kind of passion and at times anger that seem to exceed "austere". I know the work very well, it is hard wired into my brain, every note (my original acquaintance was Cliburn/Leinsdorf, which I think is an exceptional performance). I can't bother with historical stuff like "Schumann" because who really knows? And I don't like to attach a specific story of that kind to most works, although I do make up poetic narratives for works, but I didn't for this one. It was for me above all pure anger, maybe at the world, the Brahms who said "If there is anyone I have not insulted today, I apologize" LOL Yet I can see an austerity, as in the second theme (sixths I guess), which proceeds very horizontally, part theme, part texture, the often downward two note phrases consistently repeating and furrowed brow, an angry, disdainful verbal expression, yet unrelentingly sad and angry, I just say "angry" which is a poor word. Terror isn't quite the word for me for the trills, but it is a good word, in a way, a shriek but it's an "angry" shriek, terror of and at the world, followed by downward tromping of intervals offering no real hope, resigned to accept the world, the century perhaps, giving this conclusion that it's all shit dammit, yet with counter themes that arrive at triumph, or perhaps just dreams of triumph, it is a youthful dream in a way, that gave way years later to his autumnal piano pieces that lost much of the anger, yet no love of the world, to be sure. His heart is best toured in the first movement of the Violin concerto, this is not his whole heart, but the Violin concerto has the sutures, now healed, running across his heart, among many other sights, but here is where the original cuts were made I guess.
@@rravvia nice to read your impress. It describes how subjective the soul is to the epic stirrings of these world famous pieces. The Brahms violin concerto is another favorite; more so than Beethoven’s. PWG
I have mixed feelings about the composition particularly the opening movement. The second movement is sublime. The conductor, Danil and the orchestra did a wonderful job with the piece. I really should listen to this multiple times before commenting.
The final movement is taken oddly slow in this performance here--my only quibble with this performance, which is otherwise often sublime.. Listen to Kristian Zimmerman's performance on RU-vid to better judge Brahm's whole composition in context
Je vais vous décevoir ( á mon grand regret), mais cette prestation d’une œuvre grandiose, de Brahms, est tout à fait quelconque. Et ce n’est pas de la faute de Daniil, mais entre lui et le chef, rien ne va. Il faut se rendre compte que l’orchestre n’est vraiment pas à la hauteur. Manque de pratique, de connaissance de cette œuvre majeure, de répétitions…? A vrai dire je ne peux en dire plus. Mais celui qui en pâti c’est ce grand pianiste, qui n’aurait jamais dû poursuivre l’expérience. Avec respect, et avec désespoir, je voudrais dire à Daniil de réduire ses concerts et choisir le chef qui sont à « sa hauteur « je pourrai vous donner d’autres exemples de chefs qui semblent perdus par l’enjeu. UN , peut être deux sont en complète symbiose avec Daniil. Le premier étant Valéry Gergiev qui a été mis au ban de la société par un président de l’Ukraine plus près de Poutine que de lui. Et Daniil ne veut pas subir le même sort. Mais en faisant le tour des chefs d’orchestre de par le monde, et en prenant son temps Daniil doit trouver celui qui aura l’honneur de l’accompagner. Et ne pas jouer pour jouer. Je ne sais pas si Daniil pourra lire cet appel, mais je le souhaite de tout mon cœur. Avec mon amitié. P. R.
Young Mr Trifonov would do well to acquaint himself with Yuja Wang's imperiously subtle interpretation of this concerto with Gergiev in Munich, before attempting to trample through it again
No comparison. Daniil Trifonov is a real musician. But if you want a "reference recording" of both Brahms concerti, go to Leon Fleischer 's one, he's got the "Brahms sound" and is well above them all.
Is it just me or its so bland. I hear the notes being played clearly... just lack mysterious feel in the first movement and excitement in the third movement. The 3rd movement is also a bit slower than my liking.
Even though Trifonov is an excellent pianist, there is no comparison with how Claudio Arrau would interpret this piece. Arrau’s version with Haitink has no parallel. Trifonov lacks the tempo, tone and depth of Arrau. In my humble opinion, only Zimmerman comes close to the mastery of Arrau.
@@LC-bb6kn Я не очень могу писать по-английски,читаю значительно лучше.На английский же компьютер Utube переведет хоть с китайского.Тrifonov my favorit soloist.
@@user-mh2ey9px6nYes the RU-vid app offers to translate. But often, people, including myself, watch in a browser with ad blockers, and in that situation the translation is not offered.
I'm sorry. This is a wonderful performance but I'm totally distracted by hair and beard. There is dress etiquette for a concert soloist and this is not good. Actually there is etiquette for any workplace, and being a concert pianist is a job. You dress properly and look your best when you go to work. Klaus looks good - Trifonov looks likes a vagrant!!! I can't imagine Horowitz playing without being immaculate
Wie unrecht und lieblos Sie den Auftritt und Aussehen dieses einzigartigen Ausnahme Pianisten mit dem eines "Landstreibers " vergleichen ! Zum Glück für Musiker und Solisten wurden die starren Dress Codes zumindest in Europa etwas gelockert. Und dieses Konzert findet am Verbier Festival in den Bergen der Schweiz statt, wo alles sowieso unkonventioneller und spontaner geschieht als anderswo. Nicht zuletzt ist gerade dies das Faszinierenden an diesem Festival, und wird von den Musiken und Dem Publikum sehr geschätzt . Ich muss es wieder einmal erwähnen , dass ich bei weitem nicht allein bin , die es liebt ihn anzusehen. Er ist eine Persönlichkeit mit grosser innerer und auch äußerer Schönheit und Ausstrahlung. So, wie er eben ist, mal mit langem, mal mit kürzeren Haar und Bart. Ihm persönlich ist dies nicht so wichtig. Wichtig ist ihm die Musik, und sich Stunden vorher schon geistig darin zu konzentrieren . Darf ich Sie an die Worte Saint - Exupery's erinnern : "Man sieht nur mit dem Herzen gut".
