Why is it, whenever I listen to this concerto, I feel nothing but joy, but when I listen to most (not all) modern pop music, I feel nothing but contempt. I suggest music be a mandatory 2 hour class each day from 1st grade until high school graduation. And, after my tears have stopped welling up, I offer gratitude to the universe for these moments in time. Bravo, Ludwig, bravo...
I am tempted to think that the music industry deliberately frustrates the publication of truly good music, for it will raise the tastes of the public to the point that only truly good music can be sold, which will put those who produce truly good music in control of the industry.
It is hard to believe that an orchestra of musicians in their twenties can generate such outstanding beauty, but yes, they can. I cried. One is led to believe that there is hope for humanity after all.
Alina Bercu is my NEW FAVORITE among young lady musicians! I usually feel most strongly about violinists but ALINA BERCU is almost like a single element making a VERY BEAUTIFUL MUSIC AS ONE! ❤
My father came from Sighisoara and was a violinist, skier, skater, cabinet maker and polyglot. My mother always thought that there was "something in the water".
THEY HAVE PLAYED THIS MUSICAL MASTERPIECE MORE THAN A THOUSAND TIMES, IT IS *INGRAVED IN THEIR MEMORY*! WE ARE SO FORTUNATE THAT WE CAN LISTEN TO THIS FLAWLESS PERFORMANCE! *THANK YOU SO MUCH, ALINA BERCU!*
What a thrilling performance. Those young musicians in the orchestra are just killing it. At around 2:00 Nicolas Pasquet turns to Alina Bercu and gives her a big smile, which she returns - they both know the orchestra is going over the moon on this occasion. Not to take anything away from Bercu, she is simply amazing.
I absolutely agree with you. Alina, Nicolas and young players are totally synchronized and the video recording engineer Muller was so brilliant. I give a big applause to him.
I do not know what to say. words are insufficient. Can humanity create a better composition than this in the future? I do not know. But I know this: this work is an extraordinary, magnificent work. the orchestra almost revived Beethoven... he lifted him to his feet. I congratulate dear Alina and the members of the orchestra for presenting this magnificent musical feast to us... congratulations
Aslan not a chance anyone will create compositions as good or better than Beethoven it's 200 years since he passed and no one has been able to get close to his staggering brilliance and astonishing creativity. He was a one off.
This orchestra's sound is so full-bodied. Combine that with a pianist who's expressiveness seems overwhelming and I for one am unable to sit still listening. Instead I find myself literally dancing in my seat. Wow!
Several of this generation's lady pianists are breathing wonderful new life into the most magnificent works. This is the first I've heard from Alina Bercu. Superb.
Alina Bercu is just amazing.. And she, the conductor and the young orchestra are so in sync with each other. What a great performance of one or Beethoven's greatest works. WOW!!
Formidable interpretación! Solista y director nos han estremecido con esta obra preciosa, dando a conocer su comprensión profunda de Beethoven y su fidelidad al espíritu del genio... ¡Gracias!
Incredible. The Beethoven piece is gorgeous, only geniuses knew how to write music, Alina Bercu is a phenomenal player, the whole orchestra did a fantastic job.
i grew up on rock and roll, and as a musician i play predominantly blues with some old jazz and rock thrown in, but none of that can even hold a candle to this. fantastic. beautiful from start to finish. oh, that Ludwig Van!
Alina Bercu, so articulate, her loveliness and so poised, dignity - brings the entire orchestra into her spell. All so young, so beautifully performed. The new generation is no disappointment! The 2nd movement worthy of tears. The beautiful and dignified pianist, the subtle orchestration of such young beautiful faces in their joy of performance, just sweeps one away.❤️💔 So thankful of no audience applause at the end of the first movement so as to not break the enchanting spell.
I will mention this only because nobody else has noticed: the filming of this event is superb. You are seeing the performance at its best due to the talent and expertise of the cameraman.
Especially because this was a small-scale production. Look at the credits at the end: 4 camera’s, and the name Joachim Müller appearing almost everywhere, from Producer to Cameraman to Editor! I think he has passed his exam with flying colors, like Alina Bercu!
That's a very good point ed. Lovely to see her hands flying across the keys, the reflection of the violinist in the Steinway, the occasional smiles on the young orchestras' faces. The camera work did add something to the performance.
The tempo, Alina's assertive, energetic and expressive version of this masterpiece as well as her rapport with the conductor and orchestra takes this to the next level! Thank you all xxxxx
What a beautiful performance . Beethoven is my most favorite composer of all times. I love his Emperor Concerto and the the 5th Symphony and the 9th. Saved me from depression. . Music is the best medicine cool your inner soul.
I have really enjoyed this video - not just the performance by Alina Bercu but also the orchestra, very young, very professional and very, very talented; congratulations also to the cameraman for some superb camerawork which enhanced the whole performance. Beethoven would approve.
Diese Interpretation gehört zu den besten, die ich je gehört habe, und ich kenne dieses Werk jetzt über 50 Jahre. Frau Bercu ist eine exorbitante Künstlerin, allein ihre Haltung fasziniert schon. Ich konnte mich nach den ersten Akkorden nicht mehr trennen, und ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Dieser Anschlag, diese beseelten lyrischen Passagen, in den schnellen kein Verwischen mit dem Pedal, die deutlichen Figuren auch in der Linken, die Ausleitung aus der Kadenz im 1. Satz und der Übergang zum 3., alles läuft so leicht aus den Fingern. Man beachte nur einmal die Repetition des 5. Fingers der re. Hand! Unglaublich gut. Aber auch das Orchester ist hervorragend, und der Dirigent ein großer Orchesterezieher und Interpret. Hochachtung vor den jungen Musikern!
For me anything Beethoven was beautiful. For many many years I had access to only one Beethoven Symphony "Pastoral" but other pieces I heard on the radio was glorious. I grew up in the days when there was no internet or TH-cam.
This music transcends all that is going on in the world at the moment and, for me it instills my faith in the human race particularly when seeing this performance superbly executed by these young musicians.
These awesome young people give me great hope for the future of the human race. Their dedication, enjoyment, and inspiration can be seen on all of their faces. So very well done! Thank you!
I couldn’t agree more! Wonderful music, beautifully played, by hardworking and dedicated young people. The future is safe in the hands of such brilliant youngsters.
Wow! It's the first time I am hearing Alina Bercu performing this beautiful concerto and boy she was brilliant! Well supported by the orchestra and a good conductor!
This young Romanian pianist and her colleagues from the Franz Liszt University Orchestra offer us a refreshing version of the Emperor's Concert that, with the small defects that it may have, is beautiful and very nice. Congratulations to all, especially to the young pianist, a bright future awaits you.
This is absolutely gourgeous - thank you Orchestra, Soloist, and Conductor - A favorite of mine for decades and this is a great performance. Thank you!
All give a remarkable fresh performance. Wonderful pianist, top notch orchestra (hard to believe a student orchestra) and conductor at the top of his game.
This is the most beautiful piano concerto ever written, thank you Beethoven, among composers you are royalty. Multumim Alina pentru o abordare atat de delicata a acestei piese.
The Emperor concerto is a message from the hidden world that Beethoven knew was the source of his music, this performance is wonderful to enjoy from my computer as often as I want to is a miracle from that hidden world.
you all prolly dont give a damn but does anybody know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the password. I appreciate any tips you can give me.
Lovely perfomance! Gentle smile between pianist and conductor in 2.02 (never seen before anywhere) and gesture of final triumph at 5.15. We know, Ms Bercu, we know you can handle it like nobody else. Congratulations and thank you.
Extraordinar!!!! Am plins de bucurie sa vad toti acesti tineri, plini de energie. Aceasta orcherstra poate concura cu cele mai renumite orchestre din lume. Cit despre Alina, nu am stiut ca exista acest minunat fenomen!! O interpretare magnifica! Felicitari tuturor!!
Superba interpretare Alina! Astfel de momente ma fac sa fiu mandru de romani si Romania! Bravo! Sa traiesti fata draga! Wonderful performance Alina! Such moments make me proud of Romanians and Romania!
Ein einziges Wort : wunderschön ! Wir können diese jungen Musiker/innen nur loben ! Alle sehr begabt !! Vergessen wir jedoch nicht , dass nur ein langes und hartneckiges Üben zu solch einem herrlichen Ergebnis führen kann !! Und welch eine hervorragende Pianistin !! Bravo, Bravo, und wiederum Bravo ! Beethoven : ein Genie !!!! Man braucht nichts hinzuzufügen ...
The third movement is unusually gloriously performed, rich in expression and ambiance beyond many other interpretations.The entire performance is just beautiful by all performers.Alina Bercu is an amazingly gifted performer,
I was a little shocked, frankly, how well this orchestra performed with such young faces....the tightness and tonal accuracy were superb plus the dynamics allowed an excellent blend with the grand. I'm going to look to see if they did symphonie Fantastique anywhere on here.
Why do i have an enormous amount of sentiment and attracted to this bewildering music which is so finely illustraded by perfectly talented well disciplined musicians both the Orchestra and Pianist playing such a wonderful piece created by the maestro Beethoven. Amazing.
Splendida orchestra caratterizzata dalla presenza giovanile e quindi con una energia che trasforma il suono in scintille di luce. registrazione accurata e di grande pulizia. Straordinaria anche la Bercu per sensibilità, intensità e precisione. Davvero una esecuzione di assoluto rilievo del concerto Beethoveniano n. 5. complimenti e applausi!!!
I wish this were available in true HD and on CD or Blu Ray. Such an outstanding performance and superb filming. She is simply elegant, gentle, and yet has such humble prowess in her technique and performance. Love it.
What a performance!!! I am in tears, astounded. Unbelievably beautiful and tasteful. Alina Bercu reminds me of the old school russian pianists with impeccable technique and also great taste of music and phrasing. And what an orchestra!!!! Extraordinary young musicians! At par with the the greatests orchestras of the world! Congratulations to all!!
I just hope her mental and physical health is well. We see and read time and time about how unwell the pressure to perform makes these amazing performers.
ME deleite profundamente al escuchar a esta juvenil orquesta y ver a ALINA BERCU tocando con toda la pasion de su alma este magistral concierto entusiastamente dirigido por NICOLAS PASQUET.
This is a lady to keep an eye on as she rises to the top. Amazingly beautiful performance. I was so entranced with this video that I couldn't pull myself away for an important appointment, and was late. Frankly, I don't care! It was more than worth it. Thank you for sharing this amazing talent with the world.
Yes, Alina Bercu is on her way to being one of that group of beautiul talented female pianists who bless us with their great talent. She is definitely world class - of the first magnitude and the Beethoven Emperor Concerto certainly brings out her skills in playing and interpreting the music.
It is easy to get so caught up in the brilliance and amazing execution of this young beautiful soloist that we could miss some of the wonderful supporting musicians, especially the Horns and the oboists. As a horn player myself I was blown away by the lead Horn! What an AMAZING collaboration of the pianist, conductor, and every member of this orchestra! Bravo!!!
Perfection at it's finest, and all young kids playing the most beautiful music ever written in the history of music. Beethoven will always be my favorite Pianist, Composer . Alina was listening to every instrument in between her soft playing just to keep in perfect time with them all. Alina played Beethoven's 5th Piano Concerto Perfectly and she's a beauty queen. There is so much going on, on the piano in this composition . That's what makes Beethoven the greatest musician of all Eternity. Alina I love you ! You were Fantastic. Lets not forget the conductor that kept it all together with his mastery.
Quelle performance! De véritables virtuoses à cet age. Je remercie ces jeunes génies, leur chef d'orchestre et leurs professeurs pour ces moments de plaisir intense
So very well played Miss. Bercu. You are so elegant, smooth and relaxed in your play that it seems to be effortless, when we know that much hard work and dedication has been invested in your talent. Your style and grace enhance your performance and are so appreciated in this modern age of beating the piano into submission. Thank you for sharing your efforts with us. The orchestra was very well practiced and led by Mr. Pasquet. There was no lag or push in their play, like a well made mechanical watch, all parts worked together to produce a work much greater in grandeur than their individual parts. The far chair oboist was perfection in her timing and power, a key player in the LvB Piano #5.
The performance was excellent but the telecast was one of the worst I have seen! The director lacked all situational awareness. The cameras were wrong places and the shooting kept jumping here and there without any sense. The director did his best to prevent the viewer from concentrating on and enjoying the performance itself. The director didn't even realized that in a piano concerto performance,the pianist has to be in the leading role all the time! The level of the telecast was really bad.
@@kristianeklof1913 I agree that the performance was excellent,superb in fact. However I wouldn't be so harsh as you about the filming. It is more interesting to watch the various instruments as they're making a significant contribution ; this especially applied to the wind and brass. I liked being able to see the pianist in the foreground with the conductor in the background. I hadn't intended to watch but the quality drew me in
The second movement of the Emperor Concerto takes me back to the funeral procession for John F. Kennedy in 1963, when I was 12 years old. Magnificently performed here!
Wonderful recording: the sonority of the orchestra and the piano is one of the best I've heard. Easily one can tell among all instruments mainly wood winds and brass. Really great, very great. Thanks for posting.
She tried grasping the heart of Beethhoven how he, in not so good condition, was writing the 2nd movement adagio un poco mosso. Briliant. She came to Indonesia played 3 concerts for the financing of a rehab. program for the physically challenged children when she was 11 years old. Bravo Alina Bercu
Will remember the name Alina Bercu. First time listening her and was impressed with her poise and energy. Will be interesting how she will progress in the future,
I have watched the performance of this piece many times, this one is as good, if not better than any. Alina is stunning and does a magnificent job with one of Beethoven's most beautiful pieces. The "Emporer" is a masterpiece match but never exceeded.
Der gesamte Klangkörper ist meiner unmaßgeblichen Meinung nach WELTKLASSE. Eine vollkommen neue Interpretation voller jugendlicher Frische, einfach fantastisch! ♥ ♥ ♥
For a moment, step into the mind of a genius that created a heaven when there is none, but if there was, Beethoven would be smiling at those musicians who had given a true expression of his thought.
Bravissima! What a beautiful interpretation of a magnificent concerto. Alina Bercu has such elegant phrasing and touch, a true gift to the world. This was a joy to hear. Thank you so much.
Absolutely wonderful! My appreciation to everyone involved. The Emperor has long been a favourite for me. But this is the first time I've had the opportunity to watch a performance. Usually, I enjoy via Classic FM radio here in the UK. Earlier this evening, I sat down to listen while doing some paperwork, but it wasn't long before the admin was set aside. I just had to watch this utterly riveting performance! As a non-musician, it seems almost unbelievable to me that a pianist could possibly play such a demanding composition. To see it accomplished is simply transfixing! I'm so thankful we have a Creator so beyond our imagination that He could bring into being creatures such as the human race, with creative and performance skills capable of development to this level. Deo Gloria! Maranatha!
Ein Feuerwerk (der Emotionen, der Impression und der Expression zugleich.) Unfassbar zärtlich und kräftig zupackend. Der (alte) Beethoven hätte seine Freude daran gehabt
Alina is a rising star. At the age of 27, she already succeeded in delivering one of the most electrifying performances of Beethoven's "Emperor" concerto. Ms. Bercu's playing of the Adagio movement in this performance was hauntingly beautiful, and it reminded me of nothing but the definitive recording of this concerto by Leon Fleisher/George Szell/Cleveland orchestra.
How wonderful. I've listened to all virtuosos playing this piece and this is by far the best one. That is so unexpected. Perhaps the passion in this music can only be brought out best by young, passionate people. This young pianist and the orchestra just seem to have it right. You can hear the passionate dialogues going back and forth for commitment to go forward for the cause between the crowd and the hero in the 1st movement. Then the hero ruminating all alone in the 2nd movement, followed with no hesitation whatsoever in the 3rd movement, they are now marching towards the battle all in unison. It is just marvelous. Beethoven...super human.. Bravo, bravo, bravo!
Ms. Bercu. This is a benchmark performance. Thanks to your perfected technique, extreme sensitivity, and passion. The conductor, Nicolas Pasquet is doing a superb job in creating the impact that this performance has on the audience... the impact of a profound emotional experience. The orchestra is great! They play so well and so together, and in response to the conductor's moves and directions! Benchmark = to be performed and referenced till the end of the world, and very likely, beyond!
played with such passion, feeling and sensitivity my soul was nourished by soloist, orchestra and conductor of this . Congratulations to all. I live in an Aged Care Facility where the care is 100% and I love Classical music so the gift of an iPad which I received earlier this year has. made it possible to have many hours of enjoyment. Thank you Carmel
A powerfully convincing performance, with a soloist of aristocratic pride, pianistic superiority, and the most refined, commanding stage presence ... Enormous Beethoven energy, the kind of reading to "seize one by the throat" ... Impressive, thrilling at all levels.
Brava! I'm not a musician but a passionate lover of classical music and opera. I've loved this piece for many years. The 1st and 3rd movements never seize to amaze me but I look to Beethoven for the intense emotion I relate to in particular pieces. The adagio in this concerto has always struck a very deep chord in me so I tend to be quite particular in the interpretation. I've heard everything from amazing to cold. What I hear in the adagio and relate to is a remembering of a lost love and the struggle to come to terms with it. For me, Alina Bercu certainly conveyed this in her playing. I will definitely watch and listen to more of her performances. The orchestra also is amazing, particularly for being such young musicians!
@@amir071 Thank you very much! I appreciate that. I find that writing simple everyday things like this, or letters to friends etc. is a lost art . I enjoy very much and I find that when writing from the heart and using just the right word setting, it can make a great impact on the reader.
Bravo à tous ces jeunes musiciens talentueux. Un enregistrement magnifique d'une grande beauté, tout en nuances, avec un chef attentif et précis, et un orchestre enthousiaste. La pianiste est inspirée. Une version majestueuse et subtile d'un des plus beaux concertos pour piano. Un deuxième mouvement qui vous arrache des larmes de bonheur.
Why is it, whenever I listen to this concerto, I feel nothing but joy, but when I listen to most (not all) modern pop music, I feel nothing but contempt. I suggest music be a mandatory 2 hour class each day from 1st grade until high school graduation. And, after my tears have stopped welling up, I offer gratitude to the universe for these moments in time. Bravo, Ludwig, bravo...
I totally agree with you, this concerto has always lifted me skyhigh and kept me sane in the depth of un happiness 20:43
I am tempted to think that the music industry deliberately frustrates the publication of truly good music, for it will raise the tastes of the public to the point that only truly good music can be sold, which will put those who produce truly good music in control of the industry.
Your a real feeling person.. too bad.
Chopin is pretty good at making me cry happy ears tears too.
Esta música me eleva al universo, viva Luiding van bethoven
It is hard to believe that an orchestra of musicians in their twenties can generate such outstanding beauty, but yes, they can. I cried. One is led to believe that there is hope for humanity after all.
Alina Bercu is my NEW FAVORITE among young lady musicians! I usually feel most strongly about violinists but ALINA BERCU is almost like a single element making a VERY BEAUTIFUL MUSIC AS ONE! ❤
As far as I am witnessing, there is something in the Romanian diet that produces so many beautiful, talented artists!
My father came from Sighisoara and was a violinist, skier, skater, cabinet maker and polyglot. My mother always thought that there was "something in the water".

Everything here is just superb!!
Sorry if it's a stupid question, but why are they so young, they all look 22. Is this normal?

When the music stops ....... the melody lingers on. What a lovely performance of a genius' music.
Alina’s elegant performance brought me to tears. She is a Goddess.
Melody determines which pitches are played and in which order.
While harmony acts as accompaniment for the melody.
Pay attention to the details between 13:51 and 14:51!
In Western music, most harmony is based on chords.
Incredible. The Beethoven piece is gorgeous, only geniuses knew how to write music, Alina Bercu is a phenomenal player, the whole orchestra did a fantastic job.

Superb play!!
Same here. This is absolutely my favourite piece of classical music.
Old Ludwig certainly knew how to fire out those power chords, didn’t he?
I know nothing about classical music but my god this is fantastic I so want to go to a concert like this before I pop me cloggs

What a marvellous performance from such young musicians. This is one of my most favourite Beethoven piano concertos Well done to all.
Much appreciate this beautiful selection
yes it is beautiful
Her mastery of the Adagio, a difficult and delicate part, was wonderfully done.
And Allegro, the best performance of all time, unique moments, which most miss, improvising (eg. Barenboim, Ashkenazi,...)
A supreme performance! Alina is breathtaking but so is the orchestra, it is mature and passionate a miracle for such a young orchestra.
Tolles Spiel - mutige Pianistin cum Laude für Alina Bercu; Grossartige Spielfreude im Orchester. Das Highlight des Tages! Soooo schön! BRAVO!
Eine sehr schöne Aufnahme! Die Ton und Bildqualität ist hervorragend. Bisher meine Lieblingsversion der 5. auf TH-cam 😀🖖
The Adagio was lovely and the youth of both the orchestra and Bercu certainly brought a vibrant but considered beauty to the piece.
For me anything Beethoven was beautiful. For many many years I had access to only one Beethoven Symphony "Pastoral" but other pieces I heard on the radio was glorious. I grew up in the days when there was no internet or TH-cam.

Bravo! Sa traiesti fata draga!
Wonderful performance Alina!
Such moments make me proud of Romanians and Romania!
Asa e ! Se (mai) nasc si in Romania (la Campina ) oameni care fac cinste locului unde au vazut lumina zilei❤❤❤
Да румынские девушки отлично выглядят в порно фильмах 😂💥👑👌
Ein einziges Wort : wunderschön ! Wir können diese jungen Musiker/innen nur loben ! Alle sehr begabt !! Vergessen wir jedoch nicht , dass nur ein langes und hartneckiges Üben zu solch einem herrlichen Ergebnis führen kann !!
Und welch eine hervorragende Pianistin !! Bravo, Bravo, und wiederum Bravo !
Beethoven : ein Genie !!!! Man braucht nichts hinzuzufügen ...
Piano nr.5 Beethoven, always my favorite my whole live. Madame Bercu a very brave person who can play the 5th in a perfect way. Thank you so much.
The third movement is unusually gloriously performed, rich in expression and ambiance beyond many other interpretations.The entire performance is just beautiful by all performers.Alina Bercu is an amazingly gifted performer,
efectivamente...
I was a little shocked, frankly, how well this orchestra performed with such young faces....the tightness and tonal accuracy were superb plus the dynamics allowed an excellent blend with the grand. I'm going to look to see if they did symphonie Fantastique anywhere on here.
I hope Beethoven is listening to this with perfect hearing. Please Universe, make it so.
Any and all complimentary comments about Beethoven's monumental work are irrelevant. 13:24
Incredible to enjoy the sensitivity of a young female connecting with genius. Terrific video. Thank you.
Why do i have an enormous amount of sentiment and attracted to this bewildering music which is so finely illustraded by perfectly talented well disciplined musicians both the Orchestra and Pianist playing such a wonderful piece created by the maestro Beethoven. Amazing.
Each time I listen this concert, I love it more and more.
This is a holy gift from God for Europe in january 13, 1811, inside Germany.
Not only for Europe but for the word.
Splendida orchestra caratterizzata dalla presenza giovanile e quindi con una energia che trasforma il suono in scintille di luce. registrazione accurata e di grande pulizia. Straordinaria anche la Bercu per sensibilità, intensità e precisione. Davvero una esecuzione di assoluto rilievo del concerto Beethoveniano n. 5. complimenti e applausi!!!
I wish this were available in true HD and on CD or Blu Ray. Such an outstanding performance and superb filming. She is simply elegant, gentle, and yet has such humble prowess in her technique and performance. Love it.
Ein traumhaft schönes Konzert! Wundervoll vorgetragen und interpretiert! Sowohl die Solistin (Alina) als auch das Orchester!
What a performance!!! I am in tears, astounded. Unbelievably beautiful and tasteful. Alina Bercu reminds me of the old school russian pianists with impeccable technique and also great taste of music and phrasing. And what an orchestra!!!! Extraordinary young musicians! At par with the the greatests orchestras of the world! Congratulations to all!!
Mmk
I just hope her mental and physical health is well. We see and read time and time about how unwell the pressure to perform makes these amazing performers.
Same here, Remus! Great comment!

ME deleite profundamente al escuchar a esta juvenil orquesta y ver a ALINA BERCU tocando con toda la pasion de su alma este magistral concierto entusiastamente dirigido por NICOLAS PASQUET.
This is a lady to keep an eye on as she rises to the top. Amazingly beautiful performance. I was so entranced with this video that I couldn't pull myself away for an important appointment, and was late. Frankly, I don't care! It was more than worth it. Thank you for sharing this amazing talent with the world.
Yes, Alina Bercu is on her way to being one of that group of beautiul talented female pianists who bless us with their great talent. She is definitely world class - of the first magnitude and the Beethoven Emperor Concerto certainly brings out her skills in playing and interpreting the music.
It is easy to get so caught up in the brilliance and amazing execution of this young beautiful soloist that we could miss some of the wonderful supporting musicians, especially the Horns and the oboists. As a horn player myself I was blown away by the lead Horn! What an AMAZING collaboration of the pianist, conductor, and every member of this orchestra! Bravo!!!
Yes, the horns were good.
Que linda te veo,.gracias, por tu gratitud, por tu regalo hacia, los otros humanos
Muchss gracias. Guillem.Rocss.
Como se vive en el Olimpo de los Dioses i las Dehesas como tu?
wonderfully gifted woman, and beautiful playing, mesmerizing, Mariana Grinblat - Canada.
Perfection at it's finest, and all young kids playing the most beautiful music ever written in the history of music. Beethoven will always be my favorite Pianist, Composer . Alina was listening to every instrument in between her soft playing just to keep in perfect time with them all. Alina played Beethoven's 5th Piano Concerto Perfectly and she's a beauty queen. There is so much going on, on the piano in this composition . That's what makes Beethoven the greatest musician of all Eternity. Alina I love you ! You were Fantastic. Lets not forget the conductor that kept it all together with his mastery.
The youthfulness of the musicians betrays their abilities. So well done...and Ms. Bercu...beautifully played!
Quelle performance! De véritables virtuoses à cet age.
Je remercie ces jeunes génies, leur chef d'orchestre et leurs professeurs pour ces moments de plaisir intense
Breathtaking performance! Those frolicking fingers on the keyboard take on a life of their own. Thanks for sharing.
Outstanding performance by Alina Bercu, Nicolas Pasquet and the university orchestra of my favorite piano concerto. Bravo!
But do you play it man??
So very well played Miss. Bercu. You are so elegant, smooth and relaxed in your play that it seems to be effortless, when we know that much hard work and dedication has been invested in your talent. Your style and grace enhance your performance and are so appreciated in this modern age of beating the piano into submission. Thank you for sharing your efforts with us.
The orchestra was very well practiced and led by Mr. Pasquet. There was no lag or push in their play, like a well made mechanical watch, all parts worked together to produce a work much greater in grandeur than their individual parts. The far chair oboist was perfection in her timing and power, a key player in the LvB Piano #5.
The performance was excellent but the telecast was one of the worst I have seen! The director lacked all situational awareness. The cameras were wrong places and the shooting kept jumping here and there without any sense. The director did his best to prevent the viewer from concentrating on and enjoying the performance itself. The director didn't even realized that in a piano concerto performance,the pianist has to be in the leading role all the time! The level of the telecast was really bad.
@@kristianeklof1913 I agree that the performance was excellent,superb in fact. However I wouldn't be so harsh as you about the filming. It is more interesting to watch the various instruments as they're making a significant contribution ; this especially applied to the wind and brass. I liked being able to see the pianist in the foreground with the conductor in the background. I hadn't intended to watch but the quality drew me in
@@kristianeklof1913 I watched with my eyes closed and really listened to the music. Bliss! Thank you kids for an outstanding performance.
It's the best interpretation of Beethovenn's 5 concert I had liste n so far. Congratulations to Alina and to the Orchestra!!!
Such a passionate and perfect delivery of a complex piece....Brava!!
The second movement of the Emperor Concerto takes me back to the funeral procession for John F. Kennedy in 1963, when I was 12 years old. Magnificently performed here!
Wonderful recording: the sonority of the orchestra and the piano is one of the best I've heard. Easily one can tell among all instruments mainly wood winds and brass. Really great, very great. Thanks for posting.
Ja! Trifft zu! Genau mein Eindruck auch!
She tried grasping the heart of Beethhoven how he, in not so good condition, was writing the 2nd movement adagio un poco mosso. Briliant. She came to Indonesia played 3 concerts for the financing of a rehab. program for the physically challenged children when she was 11 years old. Bravo Alina Bercu
Will remember the name Alina Bercu. First time listening her and was impressed with her poise and energy. Will be interesting how she will progress in the future,
I have watched the performance of this piece many times, this one is as good, if not better than any. Alina is stunning and does a magnificent job with one of Beethoven's most beautiful pieces. The "Emporer" is a masterpiece match but never exceeded.
Absolutely gourgeous , Orchestra, Soloist, and Conductor
Der gesamte Klangkörper ist meiner unmaßgeblichen Meinung nach WELTKLASSE. Eine vollkommen neue Interpretation voller jugendlicher Frische, einfach fantastisch! ♥ ♥ ♥
Wenn jemand dieses Konzert nur einmal in seinem Leben gehört hat, ist sein Leben nicht umsonst!
Excellent performance ! All members of the orchestra are brilliant, the conductor - very good. Alina Bercu is perfect! Thank you for uploading!
WOW!! Who is this wonderful young pianist? I'm her fan now. Thank you so much Miss Alina Bercu!
For a moment, step into the mind of a genius that created a heaven when there is none, but if there was,
Beethoven would be smiling at those musicians who had given a true expression of his thought.
BEETHOVEN's second movement really sent goosebumps all over me. IT is so good...it hurts! Thank you Mr Beethoven. You are truly out of this world.
Bravissima! What a beautiful interpretation of a magnificent concerto. Alina Bercu has such elegant phrasing and touch, a true gift to the world. This was a joy to hear. Thank you so much.
Absolutely wonderful!
My appreciation to everyone involved.
The Emperor has long been a favourite for me.
But this is the first time I've had the opportunity to watch a performance. Usually, I enjoy via Classic FM radio here in the UK.
Earlier this evening, I sat down to listen while doing some paperwork, but it wasn't long before the admin was set aside. I just had to watch this utterly riveting performance!
As a non-musician, it seems almost unbelievable to me that a pianist could possibly play such a demanding composition. To see it accomplished is simply transfixing!
I'm so thankful we have a Creator so beyond our imagination that He could bring into being creatures such as the human race, with creative and performance skills capable of development to this level.
Deo Gloria!
Maranatha!
Ein Feuerwerk (der Emotionen, der Impression und der Expression zugleich.) Unfassbar zärtlich und kräftig zupackend. Der (alte) Beethoven hätte seine Freude daran gehabt
Alina is a rising star. At the age of 27, she already succeeded in delivering one of the most electrifying performances of Beethoven's "Emperor" concerto. Ms. Bercu's playing of the Adagio movement in this performance was hauntingly beautiful, and it reminded me of nothing but the definitive recording of this concerto by Leon Fleisher/George Szell/Cleveland orchestra.
As some one point out , when this was composed you would be lucky to hear it once in a lifetime, today all day every day , we are so LUCKY.
Absolute mastery in balance and control.Well done to all.
The music is magnificent and Alina was playing superbly, Bravo and Thank you Alina and orchestra.
I cried, it was so beautiful....
How wonderful. I've listened to all virtuosos playing this piece and this is by far the best one. That is so unexpected. Perhaps the passion in this music can only be brought out best by young, passionate people. This young pianist and the orchestra just seem to have it right. You can hear the passionate dialogues going back and forth for commitment to go forward for the cause between the crowd and the hero in the 1st movement. Then the hero ruminating all alone in the 2nd movement, followed with no hesitation whatsoever in the 3rd movement, they are now marching towards the battle all in unison. It is just marvelous. Beethoven...super human..
Bravo, bravo, bravo!
Excellent Opus. Ce concerto pour piano et orchestre est une merveille! Beethoven, compositeur génial !
She is super! I love her piano touch! She creates a new version of Beethoven!
This performance just makes me wanna cry out with joy!! It is a superb performance!😃😃😃😄 been listening to it again & again!
Ms. Bercu. This is a benchmark performance. Thanks to your perfected technique, extreme sensitivity, and passion. The conductor, Nicolas Pasquet is doing a superb job in creating the impact that this performance has on the audience... the impact of a profound emotional experience.
The orchestra is great! They play so well and so together, and in response to the conductor's moves and directions!
Benchmark = to be performed and referenced till the end of the world, and very likely, beyond!
Well said, I loved how the piano blended so seamlessly into the orchestra. The conductor deserves a special mention.

La plus belle interprétation que j'ai entendu, quelle pianiste !!
played with such passion, feeling and sensitivity my soul was nourished by soloist, orchestra and conductor of this . Congratulations to all. I live in an Aged Care Facility where the care is 100% and I love Classical music so the gift of an iPad which I received earlier this year has. made it possible to have many hours of enjoyment. Thank you Carmel
Extravagant performance. Youthful and dynamic. One of the best I have watched/listened so far.
A powerfully convincing performance, with a soloist of aristocratic pride, pianistic superiority, and the most refined, commanding stage presence ... Enormous Beethoven energy, the kind of reading to "seize one by the throat" ... Impressive, thrilling at all levels.
Aristocratic pride?
What is aristocratic pride?
Brava! I'm not a musician but a passionate lover of classical music and opera. I've loved this piece for many years. The 1st and 3rd movements never seize to amaze me but I look to Beethoven for the intense emotion I relate to in particular pieces. The adagio in this concerto has always struck a very deep chord in me so I tend to be quite particular in the interpretation. I've heard everything from amazing to cold. What I hear in the adagio and relate to is a remembering of a lost love and the struggle to come to terms with it. For me, Alina Bercu certainly conveyed this in her playing. I will definitely watch and listen to more of her performances. The orchestra also is amazing, particularly for being such young musicians!
I am a linguist and I congratulate you on writing bravA :)
@@amir071 Thank you very much! I appreciate that. I find that writing simple everyday things like this, or letters to friends etc. is a lost art . I enjoy very much and I find that when writing from the heart and using just the right word setting, it can make a great impact on the reader.
Eine wundervolle Aufführung. Ich verneige mich vor Frau Bercu und dem Orchester. Chapeau!
Bravo à tous ces jeunes musiciens talentueux. Un enregistrement magnifique d'une grande beauté, tout en nuances, avec un chef attentif et précis, et un orchestre enthousiaste. La pianiste est inspirée. Une version majestueuse et subtile d'un des plus beaux concertos pour piano. Un deuxième mouvement qui vous arrache des larmes de bonheur.
