In a troubled and disturbing world, Valentina restores my sense of goodness and spiritual evelation with her exalted playing which touches and carries my spirit to a place of great refuge and peace. Thankyou Valentina forever.
Уважаемая Валентина Лисица. Ваше исполнение впечатляет глубоким проникновением в характер и стиль музыки Рахманинова. Страстные бурные порывы и упоённая поэтическая созерцательность, волевая решимость и трепетная нежность- всё это помогло создать неповторимый образ Рахманинова.
you play really well, not only your tecnique but also you bring out all the music from the pieces you play. i love specially your chopins interpretacion. thanks a lot for sharing your playing with us. greetings from Colombia
Valentina, with this recording you have given a great gift to thousands of people. If you never recorded anything else, we would still be forever in your debt.
I wish I can see you playing live... I WISH THAT SO HARD!! I've seen you performing so many pieces (And my favourite is the hungarian rhapsody), and the only thing I can say to you is: "YOU'RE INSPIRING"
There is something to your playing that many classical pianists fail to communicate. You play with such passionate emotion and expression and have the delicate touch when it is necassary and the intensity when it is required. Your playing is nothing short of virtuosity.
Amazing! I have been a fan of the piano my whole life, and I have never heard such emotion, such color, so many moods coming from it. * picks jaw up from the floor, and sits in awed silence*
I discovered Valentina Lisitsa when searching for Moonlight Sonata. I'm an adult beginner, a couple of years into lessons, and tackled the first movement of Moonlight after a couple of months of work. Her playing is so beautiful and passionate; she's a real inspiration. Having listened only to rock and blues since I was a kid in the 1970s, Valentina has shown me how beautiful and moving this genre can be I found she will be playing this piece in Amelia Island in April; a mere 6 hour drive. Purchased tickets and booked a room - I can't wait to see her live!!
Valentina and Sergei, the outmost essence of romantic night music. The CD with the four piano concerts are now true companions to me. Every listening brings out new experiences. I wish You a further starspangeld career.
Thanks alot for this Valentina, I loved the last live practice thing you did with the Brahms 2nd piano, This just gives so much insight and I now I will love this on the 17th. thanks again.
Valentina, thank you for posting videos of your playing. There are times when listening to your recordings that I think you have 3 hands and 15 fingers, but you proved me wrong! Simply amazing.
After watching every TH-cam video that you've uploaded onto your channel, you are indeed my favorite pianist! Your style, interpretation and technique is intriguing & inspiring! As a follower of your channel, I would like to say THANK YOU for taking the time to upload these videos! You are simply brilliant, Valentina, and one day I hope to see you in concert! It is definitely one of the things I would like to see/do in my lifetime. Thank u for everything that u do. Ur talent is so inspiring!
You are a tango soul playing this romanticist composer as no one! Real huge congrats for your carrer! You're a legend and an example for almost every pianist! Best regards and wishes of the best, José Teles
i watched a couple of videos ... she doesn't even read the music, it's like she feels it ... i am in total awe! i have never been in so much awe, I didn't even know this much awe existed!
Valentina - that was absolutely breath-taking. You continue to blow my mind. I think the comment at the very end was EXACTLY what I was thinking. The fact that this is just an unedited take is unbelievable. You are so humble and incredible. Thank you SO much for publishing your chopin recording on ustream - I will definitely check in.
Valentina's great strength is the integrity of her pace. Everyone must try to think about that and take it to heart. When you see or hear something that is well done, it may seem at first different. That's because it is.
Oh, my god. Every time I hear you, I think of how the only other person to play Rachmaninoff so beautifully has been Horowitz. You bring tears to my heart, and passion to my eyes.
@ValentinaLisitsa I am so honored to be contacting you at least this way. You truly are an amazing woman and I would love if you could come to play one day in Serbia. I live here and I would love to hear you play here. Keep up the good work and you should consider composing your own music - I'm sure that many people would love it. You should receive a Nobel prize for your brilliant performance!
reasons I love the internet: 1) Valentina Lisitsa 2) whatever else the hell i do all day with it, who cares... These videos share something so very incredible that we would never, ever, ever experience without your generosity and thoughtfulness in uploading them... thank you.
Can't wait to see you in Prague perform live in february !!!!! :) :) I wish they have Bossey for you, to experience that combination of you, Rach and Bossey. Can we expect any encoures??? Earlkonig
Valentina, I sincerely appreciate your efforts and sleepless nights to achieve your deepest passion, really make beautiful music, but what really amazed me is that makes you want to share this intimacy with us: Thank you, Valentina. Any plans for the Mexico city? Genuine appreciation. Victor David:)
I LOVE watching you play. I am mesmerized, and laugh while watching as if witnessing something incredible unfolding in front of my eyes. I am not sure what it is with some of your videos, but you play so fast that the sound and the video are knocked off! AMAZING you are. Ever have plans to be in Kansas City anytime?
An almost impossible piece, she did made plenty mistakes, but the overall performance really does make up for it. Thank you Valentina! If you keep progressing like this, you will go into history!
When I saw this in the suggested videos column, I was like "ooh! Maybe a piece I can play!" Then I listened... o.O I WONT BE PLAYING THIS ANY TIME SOON!
I think that when u have watched her a lot, you would understand what she's doing and will not regreat about it. i love that she shows us, always, that's she's not a perfect human; and she shows us how she is, in natural. ;)
Valentina you're an amazing pianist and an amazing woman.. You've inspired me to take piano lessons at the age of 18!! Yes I know it's a bit late, but after I saw a couple of your videos I told myself "I want to play like that woman!" and that is my ultimate goal. To play as good as you. When I listen to your music it often makes me cry. But that's good. because it means that you're brilliant and I would go as far to call you electrifying!! I have only one question. Will you upload Rach C# Min
Just brilliant. There is no other word. Thank you, Valentina, for sharing this. I am so grateful to you for introducing me to this piece. Will you be posting your new recording of the rest of this sonata also? I hope so!
Dear Valentina, Franz Liszt: My goal is to hurl my spear into the orb of the future as far as possible. May the Chopin etudes be your "spear!!!" .... because the recording format seems to be the orb of the future! (enough rest, the right food are factors in hurling) - This Rachmaninoff was incandescent. All the best.
Исполнение просто БОЖЕСТВЕННОЕ! одно из лучших что я вообще слышал! Валентина, спасибо Вам за Ваше творчество! А есть ли в Вашем исполнении 2-я соната Рахманинова?
Do you play Variations on the theme of Corelli by Rachmaninoff ? it's hard to resist not to ask this, because I just found this piece so beautiful of my favorite composer... You play very well Rachmaninoff
@TheJackHarkness Sorry but the character limit cut me off.. That was supposed to be "Rachmaninoff Prelude in C sharp minor" and since I get 500 characters again I think I'm gonna use them and ask you a few more questions.. Will you consider playing at Serbia? And if one would want your autograph how would one obtain it? Do you have your own compositions? I'd love to hear you play in person and I hope that one day I will. Take care, and stay brilliant. You make people happy and that's a gift!
Valentina, can only say - !!!!!!!!!!!! -:) Who live with who? You with the piano or the piano with you? You certainly belong together - can almost make me cry
Hi, Valentina! Great playing. But, is it supposed to have a rather loud ad that precedes it each time I play it? Also, this last time I listened to it I heard rather loud thunder claps twice during the video. Has someone sabotaged your video?
Valentina, what time are you going to run on Ustream the "pre-game" on 17th and the record sessions on 18th and 19th? What time is it going to webcast the live performances? Thank you :)

This is why I have quality headphones.

I'm so glad I subscribed to you. Getting a notice of a new video of yours is so delightful. Your artistry lifts my day way, way above the mundane.
Valentina, what a standard you set!! The complexity and richness of your playing is utterly RIVETING! Thank you so much!!

Rachmaninoff was a freaking mad man. Epic
I wish I can see you playing live...
I WISH THAT SO HARD!!
I've seen you performing so many pieces (And my favourite is the hungarian rhapsody), and the only thing I can say to you is:
"YOU'RE INSPIRING"
So elegantly play! Very beautiful interpretation. Thanks and Bravo!

This just gives so much insight and I now I will love this on the 17th. thanks again.
I didn't know Rachmaninoff. Thank you for the introduction. Awesome.
You've been missing out. Check out his 2nd and 3rd piano concertos. My god!
Absolutely lovely!
Thank you so much !!!!
Thank you thank you thank you!
7:15 is one of my favorite moments in the entire piano literature. Beautifully played.
Valentina, thank you for posting videos of your playing. There are times when listening to your recordings that I think you have 3 hands and 15 fingers, but you proved me wrong! Simply amazing.
This is Amazing, I can't stop listening this!!

現代のアルゲリッチだなぁ、素晴らしい。協奏曲のソロ版も続々と公開されていて目が離せないピアニストだ。女流なのに力強いのが凄い
fab best i have seen and heard for a looong time hugs to her
Those last 2 minutes are epic wow
i watched a couple of videos ... she doesn't even read the music, it's like she feels it ... i am in total awe! i have never been in so much awe, I didn't even know this much awe existed!
Gracias por compartirnos tus sesiones. SIempre quedo encantado al escuchar tus interpretaciones al piano. Saludos desde la Ciudad de México.
Amazing as always :)
this is great Valentina!!!!

The fact that this is just an unedited take is unbelievable. You are so humble and incredible. Thank you SO much for publishing your chopin recording on ustream - I will definitely check in.
Always a pleasure and a breath of fresh air. :-)
I first discovered Valentina with her award winning performance of this piece. Quite magnificent, like hearing the music for the first time.
i will never stop lisztening to this.
è a melhor intérprete de música clássica da atualidade. Tem técnica e um ouvido absoluto! Não usa partituras nem em execuções com orquestra!
Wonderful music wonderfully interpreted.
Valentina's great strength is the integrity of her pace. Everyone must try to think about that and take it to heart. When you see or hear something that is well done, it may seem at first different. That's because it is.
Just beautiful.
fantastic performance of this neglected masterpiece
Oh, my god.
Every time I hear you, I think of how the only other person to play Rachmaninoff so beautifully has been Horowitz.
You bring tears to my heart, and passion to my eyes.
Toujours habitée par ce qu' elle joue wonderful magnifique je ne me lasse pas de l écouter.🤗😍 du grand art . Virtuose.
Oui en effet
today it was magnificent,and beautiful.
i agree. one of the best performances of thes piece ive heard
@ValentinaLisitsa I am so honored to be contacting you at least this way. You truly are an amazing woman and I would love if you could come to play one day in Serbia.

Awesome job! : ]
First and second movement contains some of the most beautiful piano writing. Definitely reminds me of the Chopin Variations by Rachmaninoff.
amazing.
strepitosa!!! adoro quelle mani che volano leggere sui tasti!!!!
reasons I love the internet: 1) Valentina Lisitsa 2) whatever else the hell i do all day with it, who cares...

It's sooo good!
Where are my words...?
You paint me pictures in my minds.
Can't wait to see you in Prague perform live in february !!!!! :) :) I wish they have Bossey for you, to experience that combination of you, Rach and Bossey. Can we expect any encoures??? Earlkonig
The best, 👏👏👏
Esto es una de las cosas mas hermosas y conmovedoras que e visto en este mes

Any plans for the Mexico city?
Genuine appreciation.

I LOVE watching you play. I am mesmerized, and laugh while watching as if witnessing something incredible unfolding in front of my eyes.

Que bellas manos de hachicera!

I get tears in my eyes, although its ment for my ears, so beautiful.....
I think that when u have watched her a lot, you would understand what she's doing and will not regreat about it. i love that she shows us, always, that's she's not a perfect human; and she shows us how she is, in natural. ;)
I want download your videos in HD, because... I love !
Valentina you're an amazing pianist and an amazing woman.. You've inspired me to take piano lessons at the age of 18!!

PHENOMENAL !!
Geert Dehoux, pianist.
Just brilliant. There is no other word. Thank you, Valentina, for sharing this. I am so grateful to you for introducing me to this piece. Will you be posting your new recording of the rest of this sonata also? I hope so!
The central part seems to be a premonition of the 3rd concerto's cadenza, isn't it? It's wonderful, and masterly interpreted. Thanks!
What incredible interpretation, valentina rocks
True virtuoso.
Dear Valentina, Franz Liszt: My goal is to hurl my spear into the orb of the future as far as possible. May the Chopin etudes be your "spear!!!" .... because the recording format seems to be the orb of the future! (enough rest, the right food are factors in hurling) - This Rachmaninoff was incandescent. All the best.
The emotion you convey through the notes as well as your body just astounds me =) Would you ever be playing in New york city?
ПРЕКРАСНО!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your Face looks very young, but the mimic shows experience. Insanely well Played.
Исполнение просто БОЖЕСТВЕННОЕ! одно из лучших что я вообще слышал! Валентина, спасибо Вам за Ваше творчество! А есть ли в Вашем исполнении 2-я соната Рахманинова?
can you teach me how to play?lol
i love your style, you're a wonderful pianist!
Do you play Variations on the theme of Corelli by Rachmaninoff ? it's hard to resist not to ask this, because I just found this piece so beautiful of my favorite composer... You play very well Rachmaninoff
Валентина,пожалуйста, хотелось бы услышать в вашем исполнении этюды-картины Рахманинова.
ВЫ-ПРЕКРАСНЫ!
I think you should include this work in your recital at Albert Hall. Include this in the second half of the programme
@TheJackHarkness Sorry but the character limit cut me off.. That was supposed to be "Rachmaninoff Prelude in C sharp minor" and since I get 500 characters again I think I'm gonna use them and ask you a few more questions.. Will you consider playing at Serbia?

Hi, Valentina! Great playing. But, is it supposed to have a rather loud ad that precedes it each time I play it? Also, this last time I listened to it I heard rather loud thunder claps twice during the video. Has someone sabotaged your video?
Valentina, what time are you going to run on Ustream the "pre-game" on 17th and the record sessions on 18th and 19th? What time is it going to webcast the live performances?
Thank you :)
