Masterclass nº2 Saleem Abboud Ashkar - No 21 - Barenboim on Beethoven 

Parece que milhouse está teniendo serios problemas

So blessed to be able to hear a master like Barenboim teach already extremely accomplished pianists, which leads to such high level musical insights!!!

I stumbled on this masterclass videos by accident and going through each of them. Even without being a pianist you can learn so much.

These master classes by Barenboim are second to none... I've played sooo many of the sonatas my whole life... and I feel like I'm now... JUST now starting to get a real gimps of what they're all about... I don't think I'll ever really understand them to their fullest... BUT WHAT a journey!!!!! the BEST!

Maestro Barenboim is an angel, perhaps sent by Beethoven himself. Seriously, he is such a gift to us all. And what a brilliant teacher. Restores my faith in humanity when I encounter people such as this. :)

It's really interesting to get an insight in the thought process of an interpret like Barenboim. Imagine if Glenn Gould had given such masterclasses!

After listening to this master class, I now have a much better understanding of Daniel Borenboim's giftedness. I have a habit of liking the videos that produce a louder sound, but I now know that the ability to color a phrase with a delicate texture requires an advanced understanding of color along with a mastery of touch & is an indication of a more seasoned player. I'm so impressed, by both the student & the teacher!

Claudio Arrau and Barenboim are the Beethoven greats!

I was reading something else, but Maestro Barenboim's recording at the end took all my attention.

Ele é pura genialidade. Sua capacidade de entender a sutileza da música é incrível e impressionante. Eu gosto do seu intelecto inspirado por Deus.

A questão do tempo, da velocidade, da estrutura harmônica, e outras sutilezas...; como isso é uma lente da escuta acurada!!

雪の上を滑るような滑らかな指さばき…。 深い層まで体ごと持って行かれる演奏は素晴らしい…とも言えないぐらい。🎹ブラボー!

39:39 *¡Gran momento! En realidad, me agrada este pianista; su ejecución es muy buena y clara.*

Barenboim und Beethoven ist eins in diesen Klängen❤️😊👏🏻👏🏻

De vez en cuando vengo acá para motivarme :)

8:15 Barenboim covers his cough. Suddenly his hands are on his lap. 👀

I sincerely respect you.

What fabulous video ! It has made me hear the first movement of the Waldstein with new ears and approach it with a mind in awe of Beethoven's harmonic genius. And that this was written by a deaf man who heard the most idealised performance of the music when he was composing it. Barenboim hears it the same way. He has made the notes come alive and speak to us and to reveal themselves in all their beauty and wonder. So often under the hands of amateurs this profound movement becomes only another exercise by Czerny ! Thank you also for ending the video with a performance by Barenboim himself, which becomes so much more wonderful when it follows his exposition in the Master Class. Truly Barenboim is the epitome of a master musician passing on his genius to the next generation before he himself becomes one with the immortals.

3:06 someone's impressed

Thinking all the time and playing and thinking and playing...a lot of mental energy. I gained an appreciation for the level of effort the great ones exert mentally and digitally

Que belleza la interpretación de cada nota, siempre me he preguntado si los maestros que crearon este tipo de obras habrían querido transmitir este tipo de interpretación que barenboin explica o simplemente era tocado con menos complejidad.

Me: Being relieved, that Saleem uses the pedal like me. Barenboim: 11:32 Me: F*****ck. -.-

Does anyone else gets annoyed when he wouldn't stop playing when Daniel speaks and starts playing when he didn't finished talking yet? I mean, hands off the keys and let him finish will ya?

I find it very funny that Saleem was the most talkative in the end credit bit, but he barely spoke during the class~😉

Необыкновенно вся речь ясна нюансировка потрясающая

I think Barenboim understands Beethoven's works more than Beethoven did himself

This guy is a genius! I instantly recognised it.

If we all had a Daniel B. at our sides.... He could/should found an entire new Music Pedagogy if he wanted. The Barenboim Method. I learned piano by just taking hard pieces I love and even though it took me a year a piece it was more fun than typical education.....

Baremboim Grande Maestro.

Maurizio Pollini era un amante de los pianissimos, de una claridad increible ❤

Parece que olvidáis que el señor Baremboim también es director de orquesta además de pianista y que su comprensión musical no es comparable a la de un mero tocateclas que sólo saber ver la música a través de un istrumento Ante alguien así sólo se puede guardar silencio y abrir bien las orejas porque cada cosa que dice es para quedársela eternamente.

Nem entendo como é possível um ser humano tocar piano.

Did he help anyone with the last movement on this? It's a lot more impossible than the first to execute...

Interpretation and feel come from the head of its artist. Therefore it can and can't be teach. Some can understand it quicker than others.

Obrigado!!

I want to study with DB. Amazing musician

his rendition in the end is meticulous save the fact that he skipped the repitition

16:15 thank you maestro

Clark Kent playing the piano

Kakiye ruki glavnoye. Jalko shto ne podnyali do Lang Langa, xotya u mnogix stage fear. ;)

1- ¿"Liberación de tensión" en los compases 11-12 tocado en "piano" parándose en la dominante? 2- ¿Por qué esas miradas de recelo del público? 3- 38:19 Saleem, deja de tocar, el maestro liberador de tensión quiere hablar. 4- A Saleem le comió la lengua el gato.

1:45

Chaos to New Order ? 🤔 I prefer Bach...definitly !

No me parece bien que lo vuelva loco de esa manera. Creo que las Masterclasses son mas para exhibición del que las da que para alguna finalidad útil.

문제인데

Makes sense at .5 speed

i am biased ofc and so on but i think saleem is the worsts in this series...

ㅅㄱ

Too tame for me, I preferer "wilder" versions of this sonata

Too much facial expressions for uneventful parts in the piece at least when Lang Lang contorts his face and acts autistic there’s actually something going on.

Saleem needs to improve his English lol
