I do not mind what she wears. I am an old fashion woman. I like music and admire her talent. What she wears is her own business, I can close my eyes. It is okay.

If Chopin had been able to watch the beautiful Yuja play the piano in a sexy dress like this, he might have felt so excited that he had stayed alive for a few more years despite his tuberculosis or whatever it was.
Reply to AA-le9ls: I text messaged Chopin yesterday, he said he likes Yuja Wang and Lang Lang. Chopin said he does not mind what the artists and pianists wear. Tuberculosis was incurable in the old days.
Yuja Wang brings out the beauty of the music with such ease that everything seems so natural to the audience. That's what effortless means to me. Excellent!
Yuga, j'adore meme je l'aime frysek Chopin et j'en écoute des interprètes de lui mais toi ma chère, votre facon de jouer me touche au plus hautpoint. Je vis une histoire à chaque accords et mélodie que vous jouez... merci pour cette interprétation... j'espère vous voir 1 fois dans ma vie à la philharmonie de Paris ❤. Tres bonne années a vous et à vos doigts si magique💫💫
Pour moi, et ce n'est pas seulement mon avis, avec tant de talent et de pureté, avec une telle simplicité et humilité authentique, elle pourrait jouer complètement nue, qui écouterait sa musique et l'admirerait de la même manière comme une femme à part entière.
I love Ms Yuja Wang, her virtuoso sound and unique new interpretations. I didn’t know about dress code but I’m no fashion designer, I’m a real music lover. 👍👏🏼👏🏼🎶🎼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼for Ms Wang.
For me, and it's not just my opinion, with such talent and purity, with such genuine simplicity and humility, she could play completely naked, who would listen to her music and admire her as a full woman in the same way.
loved the palpable bated breath of the audience as she approached the coda. also, imagine getting to see a video of arguably one of the most talented pianists alive and feeling the need to comment about what she chooses to wear, get a grip :-P
She is hot 🔥 and looks stunning and the piece of music is played beautifully gracefully with fluid flow and solidity. Appreciate this person achievement that piano is extension of her soul. Who cares what she is wear it doesn't matter she having fun of the thrill
Listen to her Vienna (audio only) and Curtis Institute graduation performances of this Ballade. Both are professionally recorded; both are on RU-vid. 😎🎹
Si che sono importanti...non sempre yuja si veste male... lo fa di recente..in passato l ho vista con sontuosi abiti lunghi e, insieme alla sua abilità, ho apprezzato l eleganza
She is far too excellent a pianist to pander to an image of "sexiness". As a serious female musician, I feel betrayed. Her dresses aren't elegant, they are cheap cabaret costumes!
@@nikkitytomwell, you can wear whatever you like, as she is. I strongly doubt she gives a fig about anyone's opinion of her clothes. Just close your eyes if you're offended, and listen to the beauty....
From every aspect, magnificent musicianship. She exhibits both careful planning in laying out the challenging architecture of this piece (one of Chopin's most fully realized and imaginative works), as well as what appears to be an inborn mastery of Chopin's style of phrasing and voice-leading. It was such a performance as this that Horowitz struggled unsuccessfully to achieve throughout his whole career.
For me, and it's not just my opinion, with such talent and purity, with such genuine simplicity and humility, She could play completely naked, I would listen to her music and admire her as a full woman in the same way.
I don't think any of Chopin's pieces could be EVER played by a computer, strictly following his written score. So often this Ballad is rushed through. There are many expressive passages in this piece which require an ever so slight pause, or slowing to coax out all its emotional nuances. She was flawless in this regard.
Thank, Peter, for sharing this. Yuja Wang plays Chopin in an astonishing, never-heard before, way. Compare with the Coudert Institute Gala 2020. She's exploring Chopin anew and left the traditional ways, like Andrei Gavrilov did some time ago. She goes farther than he. I'm patiently waiting for her interpretation of the Chopin Nocturnes. When she will be ready, this will become the major musical event of the world, unheard since Maria Callas left.
Yes I think no ody beats Rubenstein for Chopin. I think too many people try to make this piece sound like Liszt. Another great recording I think is Arturo Benedetto michaelageli
do you really like Rubenstein's ballade 1 coda though? I really appreciate Rubenstein for his absolute attention to the melody of every Chopin piece but I just can't wrap my head around his lack of enthusiasm when playing the coda, it's just too clean with too little pedal and, for me, not a hint of "presto con fuoco".
Изумительное музыкальное произведение Фредерика Шопена ,, Баллада номер 1 соль-минор,,! Брависсимо!!! С уважением, Валерий Романов. P.S. Посмотрел на концертирующую пианистку и... невольно подумал о фильме ,, Пианист,,/2002год/режиссер Роман Полански и историю еврейского пианиста Владислава Шпильмана пережившего Холокост...! P.S. Жизнь полна неожиданностей...
It seems too much focus on her outfits rather than her enormous talent, this indicates more about the critics (read trolls) than anything else. The sound is bad but you cannot take away her beautiful playing.
Whoever dressed like that shouldn't be surprised. Of course she has a stunning technic, but I only think her Prokofiev is really great. Her Schumann really misses the romance in a terrible way.
@@farmergiles1065 Of course I also meant Chopin and all their interpretations of romantic Musi. You are absolutely right, no soul and everything just for superficial spectacle. The enthusiasm for her obviously has no musical reasons.
Yuja Wang in the Year of the Dragon - Brooke Watson 2024 I hear the heavy final breathing as completion Draws the great composer’s mind From the final black ink notes Into eternal blessed sleep And too I hear the clack and thunder of a thousand horses Dreaming through the misted ages Bearing fearlessly their precious burden across the centuries Until at last - As if by some invisible heavenly direction Those tender childish woman hands reach out And Draw his blood alive again: His mighty spirit woken and now bursting out across our fragile moments How can this be? How can this tiny powerhouse crack open the black ink courses with such purity; Where Saint Cecelia offers up her motes of love Where Her Beauty dances in amongst those black ink notes That is where Her Beauty is now shining through those tender woman hands Her own young Beauty Adorning the ancient breath Adorning the light - and liberating love’s true soul once more - A tender musicians hands shaping love’s spirit on god’s distant shore.
Ha the comments - this was an excellent performance and captured the characterization of each section. She brings the music alive with controlled use of rubato and accelerandos in my opinion - changing the texture from 'dry' to 'wet' is something to behold - and brings a new sound. Everyone is entitled to their opinion - but some of these comments are just silly
У вас прекрасный комментарий, но хочется сказать, что часть ее наряда - туфли на каблуках огромной величины, мешают ей в полной мере владеть педалью и отвлекают ее саму от полного вовлечения в исполнение. Кроме того, эта сложность работы с педалированием отвлекают слушателей - они заставляют наблюдать удастся ли ей совладать с левой педалью.
@@kevinm6790 I completely agree with the importance of exploring various pianists to appreciate diverse interpretations. It’s a subjective matter, but I think that Zimerman's rendition stands as a serious and distinctive masterpiece, reflecting a profound depth of emotion and musical insight that sets it apart in the realm of piano performances.
There is no doubt that she is one of virtuoso pianist in our times. Yet performing with music score means she did not have much time to fully engaged with the piece.
Just be happy that you can watch and hear the greatest pianist of this and perhaps every generation. At 84 privileged to have watched the best and there has never been such a talent.
Not bad for a child prodegee 😉. But only 5% of applicants are accepted to the Curtis Institute of Music, where she studied. I too have started using a tablet with a pedal when playing. It's easier than flipping pages. The pedal allows you to flip the page back and forth. She's probably sight reading the music. It's the sort of stuff she likes to do 😅. Did you know she likes jazz? She's really good too. I saw her once play Art Tatum's arrangement of Tea for Two. Someone once said she was a late bloomer. Well, let's see. She came to fame around 2007 when the aclaimed Martha Algerich became ill before her performance with the Boston Philarmonic orchestra. She was to play Tchaikovsky First Piano Concerto. Boston went into panic, they were not going to cancel the concert. Someone who knew her said, hey I know this young women who plays well. I think she's in Philadelphia or Virginia.😮 what? Are you insane? It's Martha Algerich! The best pianist in the world! BTW. If you look up best pianist in the world Martha Algerich picture will show up. So they called Yujan the day before, she shows up and gives one of the best performances of Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto. She was 21 years old! Boy, I wish I was such a late bloomer. I can't think of any 21 year old that you can call and ask them to perform Tchaikovsky piano concerto with 24 hour notice. So at 21 in 2007 she came to the stage by taking the place of the world best pianist.
Pour moi, et ce n'est pas seulement mon avis, avec tant de talent et de pureté, avec une telle simplicité et humilité authentique, elle pourrait jouer complètement nue, qui écouterait sa musique et l'admirerait de la même manière comme une femme à part entière.
She played it at her Graduation Recital at Curtis Institute of Music. There's an amazing video available on RU-vid. The best interpretation of this masterwork I ever heard.
6m25s is a bar that has fascinated me for years. It is not easy to play. Many pianists are inaccurate or unmusical. Her interpretation is musical and the most convincing
