Николай Луганский - тот редкий гениальный пианист, который вычеркивает себя из цепочки «композитор-исполнитель-слушатель». Слушатель просто напрямую общается с композитором. Великий дар! Это очень ценно! Спасибо за это Счастье!
I know im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a way to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me
😍😍😍 просто люблю до невозможности это произведение с того как прослушал это произведение в 2004 году в аудиотеке училища, когда готовился к викторине!!! 💜💜💜
So many complaints about him rushing, this video is a snippet from where he does the entire Op. 118 set. In that sense, the tempo makes entire sense, since No. 4 and No. 5 have very dramatic slow moments. This makes it so that all 6 pieces speak out uniquely. I recommend hearing the entire Klavierstucke performance that Lugansky did to understand why he made No. 2 faster.
The most beautiful interpretation that I have ever heard. It is this level of feeling that I strive for when experiencing my personal performance of this haunting music.Thank you for sharing, with the world, your inner spirit.
@@zacsummers8755 It's beautiful and enriching that different musicians have different approaches and different listeners have different vibes & feelings. Thank you so much for listening. My favorite measures in this intermezzo, are the ones between 2mns & 2:35, and mostly 2:55 to 3:22 in this Luganski video. The first time I heard Glenn Gould play those with his unique combination of restraint and passion, I told myself, that's the ultimate declaration of true love. Indeed Lugansky's rendition is beyond perfection, but I just didn't feel the same or maybe I should've heard Lugansky first 😄
If you think he is rushing, go listen to Kissin or Pogorelich version. I am learning this piece and I have always had in mind the “perfect” speed and everything, but playing it is another ticket. The music of Brahms has that feeling, that you play it according to your own personality and your life experience, and every single phrase is and expression of yourself.
Tonal beauty, refined expression and intelligence here seem to operate in a perfect equilibrium. It's good to hear that this splendid pianist sounds as at home in this music as he does in Rachmaninov.
From the first note I knew that, for me, this was the supreme interpretation ( and there are so many) Just the correct amount of intellectual restraint: after all the piece is about emotion that was somehow contained over a lifetime.
It is so beautiful. Thank you posting him again. Because of your posting of his Rachmaininoff etude. I played it. attached with my video response with my Rachmaninoff.
I never tire of playing this intermezzo myself. Expansive use of rubato is quite effective in your rendering. A bit quicker than I play it, but emotional and beautiful.
I like this but I recommend listening to the master of Brahms piano music Julius Katchen Classical music's best kept secret, particularly in Brahms .... unsurpassable! He has a way of expressing the music with great depth but without sentimentality mannerisms or affectation and an amazing sense of the whole piece Timeless
@haeyin i liked this interpretation for a while...until i listened to roberto plano, here on youtube. i'd go so far as to say that plano's performance of this particular piece is unsurpassed.
I'm so sad that the klaiverstucke, which contained intermezzo 1, got taken off youtube... it was my favorite to listen to. I can't find it anymore. Usually it's the first to pop up but now all I see is this. Nice, but where's the first?
Dear Nikolai; Beautifully performed... but have you listened to the sound quality as it was recorded for broadcast on You Tube? Less than worthy of you.
most beautiful interpretation ever. My favorite by far. Kempff's was good too, but wasn't to my taste; passionate ≠ stormy in my book. The rest were just too jarringly sporadic.
This piece is extremely difficult to play. Why? Because it's so easy to play it BORING! Brahms is about passion and fire and even though this is an "intermezzo" introspective, it must NEVER BE BORING! Listen to Arthur Rubinstein play it! That's the spirit of Brahms! Nikolai you get some of it in the middle section, and it's not a terrible performance, but it just doesn't deliver, as Brahms loved to say.
Greetings. If you've not heard it, then you might give a listen to the performance of the Op. 118, No. 2 by Arthur Jussen (also posted at RU-vid, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7Wo4IPNMzWQ.html ). It times-out at 6:19 (and is, IMHO, not only a truly splendid and idiomatic reading of Brahms' sun-dappled late-autumn valedictory thank-you note, but also imbued with a wisdom far beyond this young man's years). This work was originally introduced to me a lifetime ago by a 1951 recording of Walter Gieseking that my grandmother had. Though the timing of 5:25 may suggest an overly-quick reading, it comes across as quite measured, and sonics (and Gieseking's politics) aside, you may find it worth a listen, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0u9P2WO9Ok0.html .
er, .. I they might be referring to his physical attributes, not musical ones :) And this might be a decent analogy - some people like certain musical interpretations and some people like certain physical characteristics. Beauty is in the eye or ear ......
