Переслушал многих интерпретаторов: все пианисты меркнут в сравнении с Рихтером! Это наилучшее, самое глубокое прочтение данной прелюдии, Святослав Рихтер - эпоха, не просто пианист. И даже случайный зацеп 5-м пальчиком соседней клавиши никак не повлиял на общее впечатление и образование слёз на глазах…
According to Wikipedia Hans von Bulow called this prelude "suffocation" and Richter conveyed this so well - I felt my breathing was restricted as I listened to it.
Лучшая трактовка...Минимум отклонений от темпа, благородная сдержанность ,некоторая даже аскетичность, а чувствуешь сдавленный крик от рвущейся выплеснуться скорби.... И на этом фоне пронзительное всеобъемлющее умиротворение...Рихтер - эталон.
Richter was 6 years younger than me when this was recorded, but so much deeper and more profound. He speaks straight to my heart and soul. I have listened to this hundreds of times an it still brings out tears. I can only imagine what the Polish audience felt in his concert after enduring a horrible war just a decade prior and losing their family members and friends.
Chopin is not my favourite composer, but gosh, hasn't Richter hit me with this one! Truly majestic! I think composers like Chopin shouldn't be over-dramatized, and played very simply, like this prelude. Because all the drama is already in the music, no need to pump it up.
I totally agree with you. I just listened to a version by Martha Argerich and in my opinion she overstates the emotion and makes it too flashy. Richter is right on the money.
@@johnpiettro4644 To totally agree with you. Martha exaggerates a lot. It is a 'song' on the lover's grave according to the author's note. So, it is up to the person how to behave in the graveyard. I would be quiet and mourning rather than screaming.
@@emilioooo9678Easy to play, extremely difficult to play well. Some of the best pianists of all time still end up with comparatively emotionless interpretations of this piece because of how delicate and nuanced the phrases and dynamics of this piece are.
It is a difficult piece, you cannot hide behind acrobatics or a mass of notes. You are "naked" and have to show the world how you manage the expression and the touch. Listen at their Prelude 4 and you will know how is the musicality of the pianist.
The only one who understands... Bravo!! I dont give a fuck bout the wrong note when his interpretation is not pretentious and respects the emotional message of the composer
΄΄Δίνει τους ήχους με τις ρίζες τους΄΄, σημειώνει ένα βράδυ του 1961 ο Γ. Σεφέρης. Για μένα, επαναδημιουργεί την ατμόσφαιρα ενός απογεύματος στην Πρέβεζα, την ώρα που ξεβάφουν τα νερά.
Забавно... Есть простые вещи, которые чрезвычайно сложно сыграть так, чтоб зацепило. Играю эту прелюдию и никак не могу нащупать баланс. Послушал многих исполнителей - все не то. Рихтер как всегда не подвел. Это именно то "перфекто", именно та интерпретация, которую я хотел услышать.
Of other versions, I like this best. There is a very subtle "swing" to the tempo with the left hand, which nearly gives it a Jazz feel. I can hear a slight brush stroke played softly on a drum and even a restrained acoustic Bass with this piece if it were adapted for Jazz musicians. Masterpiece. Richter conveys the intense emotion....sorrow, longing, emptiness perhaps in this piece of music. Chopin rules!
exactly.This brush. And the tempo like out of the 8 octas the first two are slow and then like gravity kicks and 3-6 faster and again 7-8 slow.. Like a constant denial. start -stop in each sentence. Amazing
I could say " this demonstrate that also legendary musicians are human and can fail... " but in this particular case (IMHO) the dissonance even increases the atmosphere. My conclusion is that if Richter could make art also from mistakes probably he was not human; he was from celestial breed....
The tune is simply ineffable. I am pretty sure that it was used in the soundtrack to a Jimmy Cagney movie called 'Man of a Thousand Faces' a biopic of Lon Chaney.
...a volte vedi nel Tempo - come si possa fermare per un solo istante e mai più ripetersi la scintilla dell'Eterno. Questa esecuzione live (1954) offre l'Irripetibile. Ho ascoltato centinaia di interpretazioni. Nessuno è sceso nel gorgo come Richter in questa pagina.
