손열음 피아니스트가 여류 피아니스트 중에서는 확실히 기교는 최정상급임. 그런데 표현력은 가히 넘사벽. 모짜르트 협주곡으로 논쟁의 여지자체를 없게 만듬. 다닐트리포노프 와 기교를 견주어서 누가 낫네 어쩌네는 비교할 수 있지만.. 솔직히 음악적 표현력은 이미 콩쿨당시에도 월등했음. 콩쿨 심판 스스로도 인정한 꼴이 뭐냐면... 특별상 3개중 모짜르트 협주곡상과 러시아현대음악작곡가 연주곡상을 모두 손열음이 받음. 다닐은 청중상 받음. 이게 뭘 의미하냐고? 손열음은 고전음악 현대음악 모두 심사위원으로부터 최고라는 타이틀을 거머쥔 거고.. 다닐은 청중 즉 러시아 관중들로부터 상 받은거죠. 러시아 대회니까.. 특별상 2개와 1위 타이틀을 바꿨단 평이 많았죠. 정말 러시아 현대음악작곡가상 연주인 쉐드린 에튀드 경우 1등인 다닐과 3등인 조성진 3개 다 들어보면 현대음악인데도 초보자 막귀도 그 차이를 알 수 있을 정도로 압도적인 해석을 보여줍니다. 현대음악인데 멜로디가 귀에.박히고 연주에서 설득력이 느껴져요... 경험해 보세요.. 왜 이 콩쿨 당시 원탑인데 우승트로피 뺐겼다는 말이ㅡ나오는지 당연히 알수있습니다
Sisters got it going on... what sensual beautiful playing...!!! a crisp edge where needed... beautiful lyrical phrasing... and GREAT direction always in her rubato... RATHER spectacular!!!
Skills and passion, real virtuosity - thank You so much for the beautiful and magnificient performance. I wished, Liszt could listen Your fine Interpretation of this delicious masterwork! Bravissimo!
In my opinion one of the most beautiful peaces for piano and it's really interesting that every rendition is very different which makes me feel like I'm listening a new arrengement. It's beautiful. Congratulations.
She brings great subtlety and imagination to whatever she plays. Through her remarkable variety of touch and accentuation notes are never just notes, whatever the virtuosic demands.
What "Jota", my God! The "Jota" (for those who do not know it) is the most popular and extended spanish folk dance. Each region of Spain has its "Jota", though the most famous is the Aragon's. It is, I believe, the one has the most character, "claw" and passion. And that, no doubt, is what impressed Liszt, and what you give it, Yeol, in your performance. Bravissima!! May Our Lady of Pilar (patron saint of Zaragoza) fill you with blessings!
Thank you for your insight into how a Jota should be played. Your comment about Jotas makes me curious to hear Jotas from the various regions of Spain including the one from Aragon.
I don’t think there is a “best” pianist in the world. There are many fantastic world class pianists but that is all. No pianist will and has ever played every composer masterfully. Some pianists play certain composers masterfully and some not masterfully.
what was new about this fine playing .Its a big virtuosic piece based on a pop ular melody.Barry Andrews is sitting in the audience I wonder whats he thinking.Cziffra and this lady make magic out of this music .Its so exciting...the interlocking,the fast octaves all the stunts and then too, finally feel you have gotten something magical out of it artistry not finesse not just theatrics to feel you have seen artist make a moment.It aint a schubert sonata.Liszt is divine seeker,superman not cheap
Why isn’t this wonderful pianist all over the front pages of musical performance? Is she not the equal of Yuja Wang? Or Mark-Andre Hamelin? We’ll see what responses are forthcoming ...For now I’ll just say she is magnificent, and I have seen her live too!
The sound seems good to me -- far better than what a synthesizer does when it attempts to sound like a piano. When Yeol Eum plays the clarity is breathtaking. On a synthesizer a chord sounds like mush. But then, when other pianists play, their sound is not quite as clear as that of Yeol Eum either. You did a good job of reproduction!
This cannot even be an argument. Seriously, Kissin's interpretation sounds like a sonata. If you actually prefer his over hers, you're probably not a fan of rhapsodies. If you prefer Kissin, you're better off arguing his superiority with Beethoven.
Son even has a touch with Beethoven. Her performance of the Arietta from Opus 111 - aka greatest piece of yet music produced by a human - is absolutely sublime, although she could have used some more power in the first movement.
Kissin is excellent, but Son actually sounds more articulate even though she plays faster. She also better captures the rhapsodic style. It's like she's riding this music like a surfboard... she owns it.
Congratulations You are second only to Bruce (Xio) Lee. His fearlessness can carry anyone through of the wonder of his play of Franz Liszt's most difficult piece of piano music and it cannot be matched except maybe at the last part of your rendition of this piece. No other pianist can play this compostion with his unerrig accuracy of both beauty and necessary fast fingers. To play this ;piece at all it takes an utter fearlessness and a closest to the fastest finger speed possible!!
Excellent pianistically, and one can hear that it was a wonderful performance, but the video is let down by the audio quality being so 'jumpy' throughout.
