The concert in Munich on January 24 was simply wonderful. And I had the unbelievable pleasure to meet Ms Wang after the concert, talk to her a few minutes, and she is really an absolutly friendly down-to-earth woman. Thanks Yuja for this short moment, I am deeply impressed.
@@beckerhanshermann8372 Bei der kurzen, aber sehr herzlichen Begegnung in ihrer Garderobe gab es dazu keinen Anlass. Abgeschminkt und in Winterjacke, eine kleine, sehr freundliche, aparte Person. Natürlich kenne ich das Märchen von H.C. Andersen, zugegeben ein passendes Beispiel. Es ist aber im wahren Leben nicht die alles erklärende Antwort. Bestimmt kennen Sie (jetzt bin ich schon beim Sie...) den Film "Club der toten Dichter", in welchem es eine entscheidende Scene gibt. Nämlich, als der "Captian" die Schüler auf ihre Desks steigen lässt. Auf die Frage, warum, meint er, es ist im Leben wichtig, auch mal die Perspektive zu ändern (Hitchcock hat das meisterhaft beherrscht). Und eben darum geht es mir, nämlich um eines: Sie bringen es nicht fertig, in weiser Ruhe und Abgeklärtheit andere, ebenso gerechtfertigte, individuelle Eindrücke gelten zu lassen. Im Gegenteil, Ihre Ironie ist kaum zu übertreffen. Wobei Sie genau das, worauf es bei Yuja ankommt, nämlich die Musik und ihre Umsetzung durch die Pianistin, gänzlich außer acht lassen. Der Verdacht liegt nahe, dass sie in gewisser Weise nicht anders sind als die Dame, sie wollen polarisieren. Lassen Sie die Menschen wie sie sind und unterschätzen Sie bitte keine anders denkenden und empfindenden. Und, by the way, wenn ich Sex sehen will, gibt es tatsächlich andere Möglichkeiten. Bei Yuja sehe ich eine junge, den Klassikbetrieb etwas entstaubende, sehr freie und erfrischende Individualistin, die durch härteste Arbeit das erreicht hat, was sie ist. Und nochmal by the way: Viel schlimmer finde ich das Outfit so mancher Konzertbesucher, in Bermudashorts, T-Shirt oder Jeans. In diesem Sinne.
@einzhuber5910 At least she's generous toward the audiences of Munich. She gave NONE in this concert despite over 7 minutes applause from Parisians. Her EGO is huge. I'm done with her, will never ever attend her concert again! She's nothing but technics.
@@jamestaylor6053 I do not discuss with you about that. For the joy of art on this high level there are several perspectives of course, but there is only one "living inside" the art. And that's very serious.
my favorite pianist...playing my favorite piece...and having more fun than she usually has with the classical pieces that she typically plays...bravo, yuja!
She is a great pianist. Her piano skill is very good for sure. The male audients are happy to sit close to the stage for sure. It is not bad to hear the music and look at .........👀 You know.
Excelente interpretación como pianista y dirección de esta magna obra del insigne compositor Gershwin. La talentosa pianista reencarnó en cuerpo y alma al afamado compositor que una vez, Maurice Ravel le sugirió que compusiera el famoso Concierto en Fa para piano y orquesta. ¡Gracias infinitas por compartir este bello vídeo. ¡Saludos desde México!
From this view of the concert, it occured to me to wonder if the artist practiced in the nude. I don't mean this in a sexual context, but more like if one were viewing a piece of art or a painting by a master. Combined with her outfit and her abandonment to the music it would not seem out of place. There is another view of this performance which does evoke this wonderment, hence the "from this view". Great performance to one of my favorite pieces of music.
…once in a Lifetime brilliance presented once in infinite magnificense which spans over generations hence How blessed are we not to be witness to this magical rendition of piano skills which go way WAY beyond human cognitive perception You are such an infinite joie Yuja THANK YOU from the bottom of our Hearts🥂 👊🔥 🪖
I heard this--the Jazzband version--for the first time in Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie two nights ago (22.1.24, travelled from Munich). Of course Wang was sensational, but so was the MCO: not an American in the bunch and yet utterly authentic, with a real feel for the jazz and blues elements. The crowd--staid and sober North Germans--went two degrees beyond wild.
@@jamestaylor6053tell me, how old are you? You are offendet like a teenie, you always ask the same question! Can you imagine that playing piano at this high level is a very hard work? Maybe she not always want or can play more, nobody is every day in the same mood. She plays about a hundred concerts one year. You really have no idea what that means.
And here, finally, is the opportunity to fully admire the sparkling performer rather than her amazing and enthralling interpretation ... Ed ecco, finalmente, l'occasione per ammirare in pieno più la scintillante interprete, che la sua strepitosa e trascinante interpretazione ... 
Es una gran pianista, muy bella , pero debería vestir con la elegancia que requiere esa bellísima obra inmortal. Sería desastroso que los caballeros de la orquesta , salieran con un shorts enseñando las piernas y solamente con un moñito en el cuello.
I was thinking about Ms. Wang and the why? Of her outfits. It has been my experience that Chinese children are often druven by their parents to achieve. Even if they have little musical talent, they have to sacrifice alot to practuce for many hours. Her outfits are guaranteed to grab peoole's attentiion and not in s good way. It's as if she saying "I will do what I want, and I don't care who likes or dislikesi it; a rebelious attiitude, which she herself, seems unconscious of. What is telling is that it distracrs fom the music. Technique is at the service of the music. No doubt her technique is astounding , but is it in service?
@@jamestaylor6053silly really she just wear what she likes and that all what counts . You puritans can listen to her DVDs at home if this outfit shocks you. As today she is not an artist, wao. She is contributing a lot to world wide music knowledge with her hard owned pianistic techniques and sensitivity.
Да почему все пристают к её одежде? А мне вот нравится! Молодец! И игра, и внешний вид, и внутренний мир! Мне за сорок и я тоже артист и одеваюсь так, как чувствую себя комфортно и энергично! Я ни на кого не обращаю внимания - пусть думают, что хотят! Она классная!
Рахманинов вовсе не нуждается в джазовой обработке! Не люблю эту пианистку, техникой никого не удивишь- огромное количество молодых пианистов обладает техникой не хуже! Одни внешние эффекты, ее игра не будоражит душу, не трогает. Поэтому она изобрела иной тип воздействия: как можно больше оголить свое тело, постоянно меняя наряды, Все это выглядит как дешевый трюк, а больше- как неуважение к публике.😅
I’m no fashion expert but methinks that her fancy frock was a good match with the elegance of Gershwin’s brilliant composition. Not too many folks present that evening came away from that sterling performance thinking that her dress was “over the top”. Seriously though…. Did you expect her to come onstage wearing burlap.
@@helenkelley2270 Are you.. limited ? Nobody cares if she is your favorite pianist - is not relevant... My comment addressed different issue.. - Capeesh !!!
