This performance is brilliant, but I had to turn the visuals off because of the grimacing tension in this guy's mouth. Such a waste of energy. My personal favourite version is still that of Grynyuk (th-cam.com/video/J2CWQKT3-34/w-d-xo.html).
I feel like he’s better at the light parts than the powerful ones, the build ups are lacking so I didn’t feel that explosive emotion usually expressed in this piece by some other pianists it stayed flat. But I loved the light softer parts very beautiful and cleaner than most I’ve heard
Why do they all skip the arpeggio which would be played at about 9:50? I realize that it is optional, and the only pianist whom I have seen play this part is Van Cliburn.
hii! there are many versions and arrangements of mephisto and that chord that you have mentioned is a cadenza that is one version in specific. There is another video with a cadenza that employed 7th and 9th, it’s so beautiful. Search it!!❤
Потрясающее исполнение ! Ювелирная техника владения инструментом плюс исполнение, эмоциональное и экспресиивное и в итоге - шедевр ! Слушала и ловила себя на мысли, что пианист как будто с другой планеты. Браво !!!👋👋👋👍👍👍
Дмитрий, это уму непостижимо, как можно так здорово играть на этом рояле! Дима, твоя интерпретация блестяща, дух романтизма витает рядом с твоей головой и твоими пальцами, он движет твоей душой! Спасибо тебе за ту красоту, что ты умеешь нести людям! Слушать тебя- это восторг души и даже счастье! Мне уже почти 70 лет, но я в восторге от твоей игры. Ты чародей и чары твои прекрасны! Да хранит тебя Бог, дитя радости, красоты и гармонии!❤🎉🙏🙏👍
Magnificent Pianist....One Of The Very Greatest MEPHISTOS EVER Recorded ....SHISHKIN should win every competition but he has a MAJOR flaw...the visual movement of his mouth detracts TREMENDOUSLY from his Horowitzian Talent . It could ruin a great career ...AND IT IS VERY DISRESPECTFUL NOT TO WEAR A TIE 📣📣📣📣..fortunately these can easily be fixed !!……… I was lucky to have been a friend of Vladimir Horowitz back in my Juilliard Masters days in the 1970s.....and he would have raved for your wonderful Playing !!!!!!!!
a gifted performance. I was spoiled by Rubenstein's interpretation and for years shunned the faster tempo of this song. It always felt rushed and even a bit showy. You definitely lose something when playing at the higher tempo, but over those years I've come to appreciate them much more, especially when done so well like in this example.
I have played this piece from 1977, and I have heard many professional pianists play it. But this performance is by far the best l have heard. This may be a legendary performance for many years to come.
Each time I open a Mephisto TH-cam performance by a gifted pianist, there are always these kinds of comments: " the best performance ever". THERE IS NO BEST PERFORMANCE EVER. EACH GREAT INTERPRETATION IS VALUABLE. DIVERSITY IS GREAT!!!
Haha so true. There is no best performance except: Kissin in Prokofiev Etude op 4 no 3. Pompa Baldi Prokofiev Etude op 4 no 1. Kissin Balakirev The Lark and others
It do sound a lot more staccato-esque and I quite like but still some mistakes which makes me wonder how exatcly this is so extravagant to others. Curious only no hate
so pushing and haste. has powerful energy and force but he didn't wait flow.. like berezovsky who rushing more than shishkin. i respect his perform but can't agree his music.
l'unico a tirar fuori l'anima del pezzo.......
No one heard the phone ringing? Btw that was amazing
I like his sound! He absolutely ate
8:36 🤏👃
Tempo unico dall' inizio alla fine .... Nessun cedimento tutta struttura . Eccezionale
Breathtakingly well played...
Pour moi tu es une rêve d'un homme et une rêve d'un pianiste ! Bisou et que le meilleur pour ton futur !
6:40 the greatest
7:15 여기서부터 너무 좋네..
The Yamaha has superb harmonic definition, as where other concert recordings do not.
Wow...😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
7:55 My favorite part
Impossible SHISHKIN 🔥🔥🔥🔥🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠
이때 쉬시킨은 신이다
최괴🎉 감사합니다

今のピアニストのトップは内田光子さんらしいですが、私とは何の関係もありません。昔の大音楽家は今でもお元気な方が多いと思います。規律正しい生活が健康を支えていると思います。音大、芸大に行ってもものにならない人ばかりです。私は20歳代の時、軟弱過ぎましたが、今は学会員になられたアマラウ、ビエイラさんにお会いしてみたいです。
中村紘子さんは表舞台に帰ってくださることはないのかも知れません。今の日本のピアノ界のレベルは幻想即興曲が弾けたら、自称ピアニストで良いと思います。毎日何事も一流を祈っています。
これはあの難しいメフィストワルツではありませんか。結構難しい曲だと思います。

Woaaaah! This is the best interpretation!❤❤❤❤
7:55 is inhumane

What about Horowitz and Pletnev ?
also I highly reccomend listening to Alexei Sultanov's performance
He is an orc.
Congratulation!!

By far my favorite performance, he even had time to scratch his nose at 8:35 Man I love this video, thanks for uploading it!
Я бы даже не отказался выпить с этим чуваком
It sounds a tiny bit too rushed in some sections... good performance overall though!
Complimenti grandissimi!!!
Не со всем можно согласиться, но ... смело и профессионально!
this is the best performance of this piece no doubt
so pushing and haste. has powerful energy and force but he didn't wait flow.. like berezovsky who rushing more than shishkin. i respect his perform but can't agree his music.
