00:00 - Alexandre Kantorow - No. 1 Chooses to go for a very Chopin-esque style playing and the melody stands bright over the blanket of the harmony of flowing notes. 1:44 is the build-up that every piano student dreams of being able to do. The sound is never harsh, but growing. Kantorow being of the less mainstream pianists featured here is a joy to hear. The pedal is never making the sound too wet, it sounds easy, it is difficult. 03:43 - Evgeny Kissin - No. 2 A pianist who needs no introduction. This prelude he is rather famous for playing when he was a bit younger (still rather young). The technical ability required aside, interpreting and voicing the call and response of the melody under such large sound production is astonishing to hear, especially listen to 5:55 and onwards. Genius! 07:01 - Mao Fujita - No. 3 Perhaps more of an underground crowd will say they enjoy Fujita's playing. I first stumbled upon him from the Tchaikovsky competition. The sensetivity and sense of dignity he brings to this piece is refreshing just listen from 9:33 and until the 10:04 colour change and 10:22 colour change again. The theme is highlighted to the end! 11:05 - Mikhail Pletnev - No. 4 Absolute legend of the piano, Pletnev. You don't need to hear more than the first notes to understand that this man is a creator of musical worlds; the mood he creates and the romantic bel canto playing reminds me of the old masters. The 13:50 change into a new section is not jarring but still refreshing and 14:30 is heavenly! What a climax, and never did he play more than mezzo forte during it. Class is permanent of course. 17:03 - Yefim Bronfman - No. 5 Probably, most know him of course from his Rach concertos. Here, this prelude is a display or testament in my mind at least about the Russian spirit (of the people I can specify), the richness, vastness and suffering that you can feel is portrayed is Bronfman's sound is there. Bronfman is usually known for his clean sound and here even though he is clearly not in his prime, that kind of quality is there. On a side note, it feels a bit sad and nostalgic to see great artists age. 20:38 - Kirill Gerstein - No. 6 Few know much about Gerstein, he subbed in for Sokolov some years back when the latter had some concerns and couldn't show for a portion of concerts and his Beethoven and Liszt made deep impressions, but most of all his sincerity could be heard in his playing, it is hard to describe exactly how he achieved that with just tapping his fingers on some wood hammers. Gerstein has this calmness in his romantic playing that is hard to find and sublime piano and pianissimo just listen to the ending at 22:42. 23:07 - Alexander Malofeev - No. 7 There are many young kids deemed as genius or talent of their generations, but most get forgotten, not Malofeev. He has continued to evolve musically, 24:25 and 25:20 are two such moments of ''make or break'' in this piece, as in: how do you tell a story with this? Malofeev succeeds! 25:43 - Lucas Debargue - No. 8 Another youngster on fire (who incidentally is also not shabby at improvising in jazz piano) is Debargue. His playing is free-flowing, personally I had a bit of a hard time understanding what he was trying to say musically speaking, until 28:18 where he makes it clear. This like many pieces in this opus might as well be titled 'etude' for the difficulty, but Debargue puts a Debussy-like spin on this piece and tranfers listeners to a place far away with his playing. 30:11 - Daniil Trifonov - No. 9 Trifonov's playing is beyond human. This piece when played at this level is just so difficult technically already, and of course the musical maturity and interpretation is just 'wow!'. 31:52 notice how comfortable he is, just ending this prelude like this. As if a storm just blew by and nothing happened. 32:07 - Yuja Wang - No. 10 Let's adress the music first, Wang is one of those pianists that just knows how to weave a story-line here. She builds it up from 33:12 but never goes all out, instead she gets us to hold our breath still into the new section, a play on expectation (of course, credit to Rach. as well), 34:29 is also just beautiful, leading into the finale where we finally get to breathe out. Now, then, she is wearing a watch, she always loves to express herself (like a true artist) and she does so with her fashion choices, but this is the first time I see her with a watch. Now, the only other pianist wearing a watch I can remember is the genius Mozart-interpreter Gulda. Personally, I like it, but I probably wouldn't mind any of my favourite musicians wearing non-traditional concert wardrobe, since I'm here for the music, then the rest.
@kvnjng Many thanks for your detailed review and particularly for pointing out Trifonov's performance, whose technical mastery and musical maturity seem to be ignored in most of the other comments. This is one of the most exquisite interpretations of op. 23 no. 9 that I've ever heard!
On a very high level, I could give a negative description of some of the performances, but under such pressure and with such competition, they all did a good job. They don't play in such a direct ranking once in 10 years. I prefer to write what positive, better Rachmaninov than Kissin here and the whole season plays is not possible. Kissin plays phenomenal, fantastic, perfect.
Damn. Crazy! Ive never seen anything like this before. It is cool to see all these pianists join their forces and create one massive yet cool performance :)
¡Dios mío! Pagaría por escuchar los diálogos entre bambalinas de estos gigantes del piano. Conozco las carreras de los 10 y todo lo que interpretan , cualquiera sea el compositor, es de calidad superior. Gran esfuerzo de la organización para poder reunir a estas estrellas del firmamento pianístico.
@@Paroles_et_Musique Subtilty seems to elude your thinking. Do not be mad, but pretentious prejudices aren't valid critique. Pletnev IS superb, but not out of this world to any less fanatical soul than you. He has many equals here (and let's not talk about his pedestrian conducting 'achievements'). And I'm sorry. patience is past hoping your musical brain can transcend its basic pompous foolishness...
Yuja's good taste and profound clarity is closest to Rachmaninoff, sometimes dreamy, sometimes passionate...always out of this world! ❤ Nevertheless all these pianists are very good!
Now michael, do not let your justifiable passion for Yuja overwhelm your critical ear. 'closest to Rachmaninoff' is a somewhat high-pitched claim. And, many of the other pianists are more than 'very good'. I love Yuja the artist and woman too, as you know, but the credibility of opinion demands cool musical assessments and not simply through the eyes of enthusiasm for one.
@@bloodgrss Her recording of Rachmaninoff's "Paganini-Rhapsody" was considered by Gramophone Magazine as the best, better than Rachmaninoff himself. The same magazine considered her as one of the greatest Rachmaninoff-players of all times. Her touch, clarity, lightness, her good taste without romanticism and mannerism is- though very unique and individual- extremely close to Rachmaninoff's playing. I was a piano teacher at highschools for 35 years and played more than 60 recitals a year...I think I'm able to understand what these pianists are doing. I wish you a great day! Sincerely Michael
@@michaelschefold3299 I do not wish to engage a fellow Yuja enthusiast in debate, I only make the point that the ice is thin when declaring ANYONE the 'best' or 'closest' to a composer'. We all bring years of experience to our listening; our opinions are still subjective no matter how experienced we are. I love her unsentimental Rach too; coupled with her astonishing technique and personal charisma it is wonderful artistry. But some others have it as well, if in different approaches. Yuja would be the first to agree; she is a most appreciative colleague. All the best to you...Cap
Ok, just my opinion: Pletnev - No. 4 was clearly too slow, not "Andante" at all, especially if marking the BEAT, more like Largo or even Largissimo (try conducting it yourself). He moved a little bit in the "B" section but slowed again with the return of the "A" section. Bronfman - No. 5 had some minor slips. (B section was too fast for my taste, but acceptable). Gerstein - No. 6 unfortunately has so many slips/memory lapses that his performance would not pass a student recital. The worst of which were at 21:09-13 and 22:03-10. Further, his whole approach was with indifference to the sentiment of the melody, as if he just wanted to finish the piece as soon as possible and go on to the next one on his program. These are the only ones I have performed, so the only ones I can exercise some criticism of.
It’s weird to see Gerstein anything less than note perfect as every time I’ve seen him live he’s been so polished and secure. Also despite an amazing performance, Kissin had quite a few little slips including the unfortunate last note. I wonder whether they didn’t get time to prepare properly or something?
Seems like you are just a bitter fellow who can't play an eighth as good as these pianists. I like that one lousy recording you have on your channel. I'm glad you don't play more of these pieces so that we are not subjected to more of your third rate "criticism." Gerstein did fine overall, considering the circumstances. Blocked, so as not to read your nonsense reply.
I feel like they didn’t have much time to prepare for this for whatever reason. Like it was thrown together last minute or something. Kissin made quite a few slips too despite an amazing performance. Very surprising from pianists of this calibre.
I have actually witnessed how it goes behind the scenes: in chamber music, they put together big names that often have never played together, and rehearse at best one time, sometimes the afternoon of the concert. It’s not as good in terms of quality than marketing wise… in this occasion it indeed seems like an underprepared performance.
@@77petrouchka wow yeah. I’ve often thought that big names playing together often sound like they’re all playing 3/4 separate renditions of the same work at the same time, and nowhere near as polished and cohesive as touring professional chamber groups. It makes sense with what you said.
@@77petrouchka also I’ve heard Gerstein many times live and every time he was pretty much note perfect and totally polished. So it was a shock seeing him get lost like that.

With respect to all the great pianists who performed, Platnev’s playing shines above all. Maybe these things come with age
Pletnëv was already this great when young!
As in Michelangelo's affresco, touched by Creator's hand 🙏
Out of respect for the others, sorry, you are wrong...
Well then I’m curious who’s your favorite considering they are all top pianists of our times
Well he got the best prelude to shine though
@@witsukyai1685 Many of them are 'top pianists', that was my point. Pletnev is one-but does not outshine everyone else here...
It’s wonderful,to see Alexander Malofeev moving in such great company. He is the future….!
Cool idea
my opinion: reading from a score can often sound better than playing from memory.
i love you evgeny
Je vous admire !
J’aime tant notre Serguei Rachmaninov et les interprétations différentes et complexes de ses oeuvres subtiles.

Do you mean because he's slowly turning into Rasputin?😮
I hope you mean his look, because his playing was superb as usual.
