► Get the full album here: LeifOveAndsnes.lnk.to/ChopinAY
"The first ballade is one of his most famous pieces, you can go to any music conservatory or university around the world, and you hear all these students practicing it. It has a sort of attraction to all pianists and it is understandable. It is just a perfect piano piece. It’s just a line, unison line, going up, both hands playing the same thing, not really a melody, nothing and little by little you get to some chords and suddenly a door opens and you have this unbelievably beautiful melody and it’s really memorable." - Leif Ove Andsnes
Album release: September 7, 2018

What a wonderful performance. I bet it's every pianists goal to learn this piece.

I've been practicing nothing but this for the past 5 months. Doable, but hard. A former editor of the Guardian recently wrote an entire book about how he tried to learn this piece.

@TheAaronDrew 3 года назад

Good God, that's the best interpretation I've ever heard, as if everyone else was making it way too complicated and grossly over-exaggerate the rubato till there is no metric left, when this ballad is just a simple pastoral at heart. The dynamics are perfect played in relaxed manner.

I could not agree with you more. All the greats in the past have performed this (as noted by Nicholas), but to my layman ears it all fits together perfectly here.

What do you guys thing about this interpretacion? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kXRSqMyD1lM.html Baremboim interpretation is my favorite, the part of 3:20 in andsnes interpretation I think is a little bit to fast, instead, Baremboim, in my opinion play this part and in general the piece better. (But of course Andsnes interpretation still great) But what do you thing about Barenboim interpretation?

@lourdessantiesteban3187 25 дней назад

Haven't you heard Arthur Rubinstein? This pianist is playing all the notes, but there is no heart, no voice...no phrasing, singing from your soul. It's like he's playing a Czerny etude. NO PASSION. JUST NOTES UP AND DOWN. The music is the language of the soul and heart and one has forgotten it. So sad that the audience can not identify it anymore.

@garyolson2676 2 года назад

My favorite Chopin, and I’ve listened to many of the best interpreters, but I can’t shake the feeling that this was exactly the way Chopin would have played it. Simply breathtaking performance.

It is hard to describe why this version hits me so hard, because of my bad english, as the swede I am , but it really goes to the bottom of this music to dig up some more, and to the bottom of me too. Thank you, Leif Ove.

@GingerIndiana 9 месяцев назад

This is because like all extraordinary musicians, he respects Chopin's music and style and when you add his own incredible musical talent which is always subtle, you get this so deeply emotional result (we're far from the marshmallow syrup we hear from some other current pianists...). He's my favorite pianist with Menahem Pressler, Van Cliburn, Horowitz and Krystian Zimerman...

@sherifelwan5145 4 года назад

He follows Chopin's timing and dynamics as written quite closely, which many do not. His playing with less rubato than many others is also in line with what is known of Chopin's own playing.

@@ritiksrivastava3093 I learned the ballade when I was about 27 years old. I started playing the piano by ear as a 2 year old copying my elder sister's playing. I began formal lessons at age about 6 and learned until I was about 20. Then began lessons again when I was about 24 and went on with lessons for many years. I played in an international piano competition in Paris in 1971 but did not progress beyond the first round. I have a Bachelor of Musicology degree as well as performers and teachers licenciates - 2 of each. I live in Johannesburg, South Africa.

@MrInterestingthings 4 года назад

Most trained pianists play tis and none of us ever get the magic he gets in even one phrase . I notice how he changes fingers on the same key and in moving and in bringinging hand forward . So many things I never figured out or heard my teacher say and his pedaling so musical and the textures and imagery he can bring up . So much magic and imagination - it s more than fingers and he doesn't believe in the crazy 19th century rubatos that pianists consider bad taste and yet he still gets so much into the music . It takes so much to make music . I found this music in high school 40 years ago and still every time I think or play its passages there aarea thousand decisions to make and I'll never be able to even copy the sounds (the music) he gets here .
