Mikyung Sung with Jaemin Shin is another performance with no audience, though played as if there were one, that is spectacular. I find it more magical, intense, affecting, and musically coherent than this performance (from both musicians). Plus, it is played very beautifully on double bass, which is a feat, but perhaps more appropriate than might be imagined. It is thought that this sonata might have been conceived first for cello (for which Franck did later endorse a transcription), and though the double bass naturally sounds an octave lower than a cello, this bass performance is played an octave higher up the fingerboard, so may be at the same pitch as a cello performance. But the sound has greater resonance, fullness and depth of tone, and intensity.
magnifici!!!!! Lei ,e' quasi superfluo dirlo,imbarazzante per la facilita' di esecuzione........senza parole!Lui ,in grandissima forma, con un suono di una bellezza paradisiaca!!!!!!
This is such a strong rendition - a ray of light through the darkness of our times - I'm a total admirer of Martha's and it's so wonderful to see and listen to her play! She is a legend!!! I'm totally in love with her magical performances!
I would say that this Franck Violin Sonata, is so touching, captivating and to me it is the most beautiful sonata for violine and piano, especialy,played by this two amazing artists.I'm so happy and can' t wait for Martha's coming to Belgrade,in July ,giving a concert to Kolarac Foundation,tickets already bought ,the first day of their selling,feel so unreal to be close to such a wonderful woman,pianist,and her vitality..Looking forward to attending the concert.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Love you Martha and God bless you.
This was the most touching, honest and the most beautiful rendition I've ever heard. Espetially thanks to the skilled, wise pianist for not overplaying the parts and stay humble and crisp at the core parts, this suits to this music so well. At the end, I realised that there is no audience in the place... so sad. But don't despair, there is real audience , still.
You might also enjoy Mikyung Sung with Jaemin Shin (which also happens to have been without audience but played as if there was one). The most magical of performances I know. (Though Noa Wildschut comes close, but that’s because I suspect she closely copied Mikyung’s interpretation.)
@@matthewv789 Also Vadim Repin and Nikolai Lugansky. Their playing has an energy, fluidity and naturalness that's hard to find in other interpretations. And, although not so forceful as the two russians or Capuçon and Argerich, Augustin Dumay and Maria João Pires is well worth a listen.
Une merveilleuse fusion et un bien bel équilibre entre piano et violon pour cette sublime sonate de Franck : deux grands musiciens ,mais un seul cœur .
My first time hearing this piece - it's very beautiful. Listened to this right on the heels of listening to the classic performance of the dminor symphony by the CSO under Monteaux. Franck's music deserves more attention and acclaim than it receives.
Academics hated his music. Entirely too accessible to the masses. That is to say, too immediately beautiful. Only the select should be able to understand.
Covid cannot kill great artistry! This was amazing!! There is something even more genuine and poignant in a performance without an audience. This touched my heart.
Como dijo Martha en una entrevista, cuando se le preguntó qué eran las cualidades de un gran músico: “Vulnerabilidad... Generosidad...” Dos maestros maravillosos, un solo corazón.
No solo siento un gusto enorme de escuchar y ver sobre todo a la maestra Martha en tan buena forma fisica, con su calidad productiva musical intacta y mejorada, sino que vi una luz de optimismo y esperanza. Todo un ejemplo a las nuevas generaciones
Mil gracias Martha y Renaud. Luego del placer de escucharlos sentí el vacío del auditorio sin aplausos...¡Qué habrán sentido al dejar el escenario acostumbrados a la ovación! Saludos desde Argentina.
Sos espectacular Marta, por favor veni a argentina a tocar.. tengo 16, te descubrí hace poco.. TE JURO que vendo la tele, la computadora y el celular para pagarme un pasaje a Buenos Aires y poderte escuchar.. Por favor!!
Bonjour Cette merveilleuse sonate je l'ai joué il y a quelques mois mais je ne peux plus; gelas maintenant !! J'espère pouvoir changer ma mentonnière en septembre !!! J'ai fait du violon pendant 13 ans er j'ai du mal maintenant "avec l"afe* !!! Merci pour ce bon moment inoubliable , à bientôt,
❤bravo pour cette merveilleuse sonate que j'ai travaillé aussi, mais que je ne peux plus jouer depuis septembre mais avec la cure je pense pouvoir la retravailler !!! Merci infiniment pour ce magnifique moment.
Absolutely magnificent! I have heard Yehudi Menuhin with his sister and the old style of playing was beautiful but there was no deep involvement. This performance was so moving.
Maravillosos los dos artistas; Martha cada día mejor, no en balde conside4rada entre las diez mejores pianistas del mundo. Capucon notable. Ambos lograron potenciar esta bella sonata de Cesar Franck.
Thank you. You are both so talented. The performance is beautiful. Thank you again. I am trying to learn the piano for this sonata and you both are a huge inspiration to me though I will never get it to the tempo at which you play. But I will keep trying.
Fantastic of course. Funny how Martha says ‚very difficult with this light‘ before the 2nd movt. I wonder if she also read that the first performance was from memory because no light was allowed in the museum.
Amen! (Not taking anything away from extraordinary performers or an extraordinary composer; the best performance is the one that leaves you overwhelmed with gratitude to Heaven for allowing mere humans to achieve such beauty.)
@@jackroark6928 Quite possibly not, but that doesn’t keep me from taking him literally. My brother Sam, a builder, has occasionally enjoyed a pastime he calls “persecuting the heathen”; taking people literally when they indulge in profanity. If somebody says, “Oh my God!”, he likes to ask, “What would you say if he answered you?”; if they say “This m-f window doesn’t fit the opening,” he says, “Now wait a minute! Windows don’t do that, and if they did, they wouldn’t do it to their mothers!” It is a good idea to try to mean what you say and say what you mean.
Si tuviese que poner el ejemplo más claro de cómo interpretar y pensar en frases y no en notas y de que la música fluya de manera natural , como si no existiesen las barras de compás ..sin duda sería esta interpretación de entre los millones de vídeos de música clásica de RU-vid. Realmente he aquí dos gigantes de la interpretación absolutamente liberados de las notas de la partitura
According to the Warner Classical website, "Renaud Capuçon plays the Guarneri del Gesù 'Panette' (1737) that belonged to Isaac Stern, bought for him by the Banca Svizzera Italiana (BSI)." He plays it much better than did Stern ...
The page turner with mask is utterly ghoulish to behold. He couldnt have just lost the mask for a couple of hours, with those two wonderful musicians in concert?
I'll have to dissent here; fell instantly in love with the violin, but Martha could have used more practice. In the beginning it felt like playing prima vista. Nevertheless, you're still my Goddess, dear Martha.
Trovo "stonato" nn il brano eseguito, che si avvale di ottimi esecutori, ma i capelli della signora Algerich la quale, non avendo gli anni del 1966, dovrebbe avere una acconciatura adatta ad una signora in età...
Commento di esemplare coerenza musicale ed esegetica, che stimola oltremodo una domanda: ma Algerich cos'è, la capitale dell'Algeriach, stato del Nordafricach?
@@paolobrama9228 è un commento estetico che nulla toglie alla validità della signora che, dato il momento, si confronta inevitabilmente con le sue colleghe giovani, le quali esagerano in altro modo. Lola Astanova e Yuja Wang si presentano accuratissime ma troppo svestite... Alla signora Algerich si chiede di curare se non il colore almeno il taglio dei capelli!
Sig Brama, non crede di essere andato un pochino fuori tema: esegesi di che? La geografia che c entra? Almeno io parlo di aspetto..non nascondo che vedere la signora Algerich con i capelli come se fosse uscita da un campo di concentramento mi ha fatto effetto....
@@lorettacurzi8655Io nom credo di avere ol monopolio di nulla: esegesi è intesa in senso di interpretazione critica, vale anche per un contesto musicologo quando si commenta un'esecuzione. In merito alla geografia non saprei: è lei che ha scritto aLgerich, con la elle al posto della erre. Vista la grande attenzione verso l'acconciatura magari ne userei un po' anche per scrivere il nome... Comunque era un messaggio condito dell'ironia, nulla di personale.
I'm sorry- I can't say that I'm enjoying this. The pianism in the second movement is nothing but sloppy. I'm sorry - A person who is at a high-level of performance capacity has possibly destroyed the strict emotional and tense performance of this piece with an ego that has drowned it. And ... remember Sydney? And, you know - it's about the pianist... this performance does NOT provide for the violin at all.
@@ziploc6354 wow ziploc, that is interesting. and i hear how it relates to this rendition. i hear this rendition as an introvert's performance. i don't relate to the character i hear portrayed here personally, but I feel I have a defined (thanks to the performers) sense of them.
