Beautiful slow movement from Olga's performance at Tonhalle Düsseldorf, Jan 22, 2014, with Amadeus Chamber Orchestra of Polish Radio, cond. Agnieszka Duczmal.
One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard and seen. I'm actually in tears. Moved and speechless in bliss for a few minutes after listening to that. Truly emotional performance. Chopin was a master of emotion, and Olga really brings out the romantic love here. And her red dress is absolutely scintillating. My God! What a performance.
The second movement is a romance movement with a slow tempo (Larghetto). String instruments lead the soft introduction, followed by a piano playing with a beautiful melody. There is an emotional charm that attracts the hearts of those whom Chopin has cherished. Even if you listen to without any explanation, you can feel the calmness in your heart. A magical melody that draws the listener's heart even more... Chopin sang the heart of his first love and unrequited love with this music.
Simply magnificent. The very best interpretation I've ever heard of my favourite composers favourite piece. Yes, sounds slightly trite but a very sincere comment.
Marvelous! I wonder when she's speaking to the piano, for her posture, body movements, facial gestures, as she does it she' s incorporating the music, the composer and she's out of time, space and endviroment, bravo, bravo bravo. Few can feel the music this way. Once more Bravo.
The Polish guy was a real genius: he states the theme simply in the home key, E Major, then at 0:35 he states the theme again in the relative minor key, C# Minor, and then he lets it slide to the home key with a double downward fifth fall: F# minor chord, B major and finally E major.
Lo he escuchando tantas veces... Lo escucharé tantas otras... Nota por nota y pulsación tras pulsación sientes sentir a Chopin. Usted Olga traslada a la emoción del compositor, hoy.. Sencillamente sublime
Are you worried by the bad things, that happen in our beautiful planet and humanity? Listen this version carefully because you will cry, will be happy and will keep hope.
Melodías q dejan en blanco los pensamientos, y sólo se puede respirar esas notas musicales q salen de el alma, el romance es algo tan especial y choppin lo plasmó exactamente en tan bellas melodías
Such a nice relaxing piece to listen especially when stressed out or even on a drizzling day. Great performance and I love your dress and hairstyle, Olga.
Am I the only one who'd like to listen to a vocal version of this song? I keep imagining it, though I know It was made for the piano (Which I absolutely love).
Olga am Klavier ist eine absolute Wucht! Ich habe sie durch dieses Lied kennen gelernt. Ihre Interpretation ist die schönste, emotionalste und traumhafteste Version, die ich je gehört habe. Das geht einfach unter die Haut. So mag ich Musik am liebsten, egal ob Klassik, Smooth Jazz oder andere Piano-Stile.
Liebe Olga, ich habe mir das gerade nochmal angehört....unfassbar. Mich hat selten etwas dermassen beeindruckt und verzaubert. Sicher die beste Version dieses Stücks auf RU-vid. Ich hab das jedem geschickt, den ich kenne. Olga Scheps, den Namen muss man sich merken.
Indescribable magic that lights up when your hands create the perfection of music ! Olga 're fantastic , you can each time to give an identity to the dreams !! ;-)
