Fazil Say | Claude Debussy: Clair de lune 

to be fair, I genuinely think every art form has something like that. Because everything is frequency at the end, sound has form/shape and colors, but also a sculpture has sound. Only we can't sense it, it's just hidden. But genius level artists can. Like him. Like Mozart, Leonardo, etc.

@@boroborable Synesthesia do be like:

and colors of those wings :)

I watched so mich synthesia that I don’t hear frequencies I see them visualized on a virtual piano

@@boroborable calls to mind the great quote about Michelangelo’s David…’the art was always there. I just had to remove the pieces that weren’t needed’. I love that concept..

Bende.

@@granmadid de ayrı

Ama fazil Say malesef o havayi alamiyor.

Öğrenebildin mi bari

@@ipekserpilkesen4761 evet öğrenebildim.

Ayni durum

Şimdi aynı şeyi düşünüyordum, sirf bunu çalabilmek için piyano öğrenmek 😊

@@bilgecandede164 pianom yok fakat notalarını öğrendim pianom ne zaman olur bilmiyorum ama çalmayı istiyorum

Amen. For example….the way that some conductors pace Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto #2, the Adagio movement, drives me bonkers. When the pacing is so even and unwavering and feels too fast, it just loses so much of the emotional power it has….but you know who actually plays it like that?….Rachmaninoff! But that doesn’t change that I strongly prefer the variation of pacing and the ebb and flow that the Ormandy’s and Ashkenazy’s and Previn’s give it. It just is a matter of interpretation. It’s like shades of a color. There just can’t be a version that’s universally ‘better’. Art and its beauty are for the eyes and ears of the beholder.

To me, there's no right or wrong. It either works or it doesn't - this works.

Is this what they call "too much mannerism"?

His emoting is perhaps a bit excessive, but I appreciate his expression. (Lang Lang is an example of over-emoting which I don't appreciate. Lang Lang feels inauthentic to me). So it's a "genius pianist" rather than a "genius actor".

Every artist with emotional content on stage, whatever if pianist or not, is an actor.

It's not just you! I came here because I listened to him playing Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata on Spotify and I could hear him breath and hum. Now I've watched this, I think it's kind of his way of playing.

Yeah, this is what Glenn Gould used to do.

😂

Ничего все могут ошибаться

resmen hata yapıyor.. olmaması gerek..

@@CenkCelix Evet haklısın. Ama hata arada olabilir... Notadan çalsa yapmazlar. Ama tamamen kafadan çalınca bazen olabilir. O kadar katı olmayalım bence. Author gibi yorum yaptık vallahi...😄😄😄

@@TheOherek bilemiyorum ben ilk fark ettiğimde biraz üzülmüştüm açıkçası.

You envy him ha :)

@@norifakiramele I like Fazil as a person but I do not envy him as a pianist. His soul is too young. His rendition of Kreutzer sonata with Kopatchinskaya is magic for me. He never convinced me in any solo repertoire.

@@michieldemarey how many of them you listened to.

@@norifakiramele all what I could find on spotify and youtube.

@@michieldemarey Pure Kitsch, His soul is too young, these are big words.

he IS playing at a church

He "is" the priest. And that's his church. If you understand what I mean.

@@giovanni-fq4bz I think it is a methaphore lol

@@giovanni-fq4bz there are Turkish priests in Turkish churches

yes. Have you heard his Turkish March 🤣

@@stepaushi not his bro it’s written by Beethoven also you need to check his past first for understanding him good luck to you in your own world 👍

@@nesetertas9699 I know it's written by Beethoven! Of course, what I mean is, "Have you heard his rendition of the Turkish March". I personally think his version is ingenious, painful, and comical simultaneously.

Secondo me é l esempio come non si deve suonare il pianoforte, Michelangeli diceva fedrltà al testo, lui é di talento ma da piano bar

As far as I know Lang Lang is just performer, Fazıl Say is also a composer, that might be why he gets tolerance.

Jo Smith not everyone knows the ins and outs of Piano playing like you do maybe, the truth is that Fazil Say has brought a lot of people in from the cold to appreciate Classical music he may not be perfection but he can be and brings so much more than just musical brilliance to his performance.
