@@MartinVanBoven making fun of people for a lisp is what very young children do. not a great look. Whereas my comment was a playful jab at him overusing a word.
Lolololololol 🤣 my dad bought this on VHS and I used to watch it a lot on road trips....and whenever I came across this...I used to think it was hilarious hahahahahah
I simply don’t understand and perhaps will never understand how could this beings pull such energy, such spirit, so much of themselves while playing, at the same time remaining completely undisturbed by their thoughts. IN PUBLIC. I have played multiple times in public and each and every one of those times, the thoughts appear to conquer me, sometimes I do finely, other times…well not that good. However, for pieces that require such fierceness, such as the ones being played, I think the nerves would get to me and I would deliver nonsense. I admire their ability to mantain composture, upon being filmed on national TV, upon playing for thousands, they remain completely calm as if it was natural for them, such courage. Of course this is not only true for them but for most concert pianists. I think to be in such state requires such honesty in the heart, massive humility and deep understanding of oneself and the core of humanity. I feel, in that sense, I’m more like Chopin or Gould, shy, even if the audience is just 2 people.
Надежда, все познается в сравнении, разве нет? Немножко тревожит ваша аналогия с двумя прекрасными поэтами. Точнее с одним прекрасным и другим хоршшим поэтом. Масштаб Маяковского, на мой взгляд, как творца затмевает Есенина. Маяковский гений, а Есенин просто хороший поэт.
His hands also didnt match the music being played, which is to be expected, that plane that landed could not have stopped moving and the pilot could not have walked over to salute the others until minutes after the prelude had ended.
0:50 Wouldn't the Soviets have banned Rachmaninoff's music as decadent throwbacks to the Czarist period and forbade any Soviet pianists from playing it, not to mention they would have considered him a traitor to the Soviet cause for fleeing Russia in 1918 and settling in the US?
They were much more flexible than that. They could take almost anything and put a twist on it, presenting it as a"true people's art", "inspired by folk music" etc. Especially in music, which is really abstract. They even had jazz, although at some periods it was not labeled as such to avoid the associations with the US.
........so what?.....they were still russians and educated by the soviets, something which should not be minimized!.......they were the new russian school of pianism.....and the great Van Cliburn had been educated in Juilliard by the old russian school of pianism represented by Essipova.
The time they were born , Ukrainia was not a state that was created by Lenin ! Then in Ukrainia, you can find Russians.. ( only 15% Ukrainian speak ukrainian... ( in the Western part, that means, in part occupied by Poland between the two WW) . But Richter comes from Jytomir and Gilels from Odessa, that means, in Russia, just before the Bolchevik Revolution.They speak Russian. And had nothing to do with the Banderivsti and nationalists.
it was USSR at that time and people were not identified by places (republics) they were born and were not identified by nationalities (at least officially). Everybody were soviet people......
Kissin the cold piano sound! The greatest pianists of All Time Are really Artur Rubinstein Grigory Sokolov Emil Gilels Radu Lupu Wilhelm Kempff Mikhail Pletnev Sviatoslav Richter Maurizio Pollini Vladimir Ashkenazy Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinsky Solomon Cutner Maria Grinberg Natalia Trull
