Grigory Sokolov - Brahms Piano Concerto No.2 in B-flat major + Encores - Video 1987 

Согласна. Он ЛУЧШИЙ

@@ИринаКоссе-б7у Richter and Gilels gone, but Sokolov filling those enormous shoes.

Как он молод на этом видео! Наш Гений❤❤❤❤❤

It's sad that he refuses to play any concerto though :(

Sokolov played 3 encores that night! Chopin Prelude! Chopin Etude The Ocean! Bach-Siloti prelude in b minor! Bach-Siloti missing because TV-time run out! The Finnish Broadcasting Company had to show the News 8:30( 20:30) We the Finnish worshiped the Beast 666 in that night! 2/3=0,666 Sokolov's encores shown filmed! Really Shocking Stupid The Finnish Broadcasting Company!

This is an absolutely stunning performance by Sokolov and this wonderful orchestra.

The two encores showcase every facet of this most extraordinary pianist. Again, just stunning.

Anson… as always, thank you. So proud to be a subscriber to your most wonderful channel.

Yes only Zimerman Bernstein close to him of Horowitz Toscanini

​

And Richter Leisendorf; and Gilels Jochum

Pretty sure he’s got Richter and Gilels beat-hands down-on this performance. Don’t think any performance I’ve heard (so far, during my 70 years on this planet) comes even close.

His performance of this Piano Concerto is Unique!!! ❤🌹💐🙏🏼🌟✨💫

Few pianists REALLY do the right hand solo thirds from the last movement convincingly. MAH, Zimmerman, Pollini arguably, and that's probably it, with Hamelin with the cleanest runs, as far as I can tell. But with Sokolov we get all the thirds with art. Nothing mechanical.

10:03 too

Grigory Sokolov=THE TITAN OF THE PIANO!! THE GIANT OF THE PIANO!! Grigory Sokolov his Chopin piano concerto no 2!! Brahms piano concerto no 2!! Mozart piano concerto no 24!! Saint-Saens piano concerto no 2!!! AFTER Grigory Sokolov PLAYED THESE CONCERTOS THEN ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS ARE REALLY ONLY THE DUST ZEROS!!

The most amazing playing is 26:06-26:27( The Best beautiful piano playing ever by The GIANT OF THE PIANO Grigory Sokolov!! Grigory Sokolov The King of rhythmic Vital playing ever 42:53-43:02! Sokolov a class of his own!! NO-ONE Other pianists can not Be play that Part with rhythmic vitalness! Unbeatable vitalness! The Finnish Proffesor Erik Tawaststjerna ( The jury member in Tchaikovsky piano competition in 1970 1974! Erik Tawaststjerna The Sibelius biography writer) Tawastsjerna claiming once The 4th movement Brahms piano concerto no 2 is The weakest Part not.as Good as 1-3! Grigory Sokolov proves Tawaststjerna horrible wrong! 4th movement by Grigory Sokolov is the most amazing Part of Brahms piano concerto no 2!!!

Richter does it as well, a little less deliberately

@@RaineriHakkarainen Sokolov is certainly rhythmic, different from Richter but not better in my opinion. Those two are the best with this piece that I've heard. I'm glad to have both of them.

он необыкновенный. и с годами не теряет искренности. редкое качество.

I'm most impressed by the trills at 19:53

Yes! It's the wrong articulation! Those notes are not to be struck evenly, it's un -musical if done so as done by the great pianost

preach bruv

🎉

Best comment so far😅 I woul also include the orchestra and the conductor😊

Someone should teach this alien how to interpret Brahms without banging

The best Brahms concerto no 2 are Really=Sviatoslav Richter Edwin Fischer Grigory Sokolov( the best rhythmic vitalness! The best piano sound!) Van Cliburn! And the most beautiful version Stanislav Igolinski!!

Nah. The only alien is Elon. Got two 🧠🧠 brains. Maybe that Brazilian metal vocalist also... Got two sets of lungs 🫁🫁

I absolutely agree. He is not from this Planet!!! Sokolov is out of this world. Johannes Brahms were very pride of him. Bravo!!! ❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💫✨🌜🌞🌟✨

Funny words

May be this cd exist in Finland

Zimerman is the Robot with an ice cold piano sound! The best Brahms no 2 concerto are Really=Sviatoslav Richter with the Paris Orchestra with Lorin Maazel!! Grigory Sokolov the best rhythmic vitalness! Edwin Fischer from 1942! Van Cliburn from 1962 in Moscow!!

Found it lol

insane trill...

I opened my eyes wide to an extent I didn't thought possible before when I watched that.

🤝

Serkin had much better taste. Sokolov brings too much of himself into the music. If one likes his unusual choices it's fine. I usually do not

The Chopin etude is stunning

​@@paulmoon3347Sokolov played 3 encores after Brahms concerto no 2! Chopin prelude! Chopin etude the Ocean! And Bach-Siloti prelude! Why Bach-Siloti is missing because tv time run out the Finnish broadcasting company had to show the 8:30(20:30) clock news! No way we the Finnish stop our news! I followed the whole concert on Radio!

🙄🙄🙄
