I constantly make the mistake of thinking, "Oh I'll just have this on in the background and I'll get some work done..." but I can't because it's so good I'm completely distracted. This is the best version I've heard. Yundi is amazing.
Any composer I know of would despair if you were "using" his/her/its music as "background." I agree this is especially gripping, one of my single favorite pieces over 50 years now.
This rare genious, who dedicated his whole life to music, was cruelly slandered and thrown out of the music world, left unprotected by the many music institutions. It's a sad, sad world, with little acceptance and compassion. 😢
Dear Youndi, you are a sensational pianist, loved listning to you, I wish I were in Poland when you won the Chopin competition at such a young age. I am from Russia and Poland, in the US since 1964, a pianist Manhattan School of Music. I have a suggestion for you re: the tempo of the Liszt Sonata. This recording is 29.22 minutes, please record or perform at a slower tempo, such as at least 34 to 35 minutes. It will be far more effective. Continue playing as beautifully as you do, such a talent! Wish you all the success for the rest of your live. An admirer!! LBM
Actually your tempo is perfect!! Listening to you again May 17, 2023 La Campanella was breathtaking. You are truly Prince of the Piano. Dont give up people love you continue performing with the God given talent and hours you have put in to be an exeptional musician and pianist. We are praying for you to give you strenght to continue for the long rest of your life like Rubinstein!!!!!! ❤😊!❤❤
@@lenamcginnis5168 I am very moved by your comments. Hope you can find Yundi's upload of this video by himself today. th-cam.com/video/kpTS4pwRrMk/w-d-xo.html. So glad Yundi survived all the changes and he will release his new Mozart album in the upcoming Apr.
it is indeed very hard and not for everyone, and there r many humans out there, who can't really completely handle this piece yet, playing this thing in public. even li yundi is one of them. just my opinion.
Yes, I believe most any reasonably intelligent person could learn to play this with the proper information on the whole-body approach to piano technique (as pioneered by Chopin and Liszt himself) and training in effective practice techniques and the discipline to practice daily for at least 2 hours.
Yundi Li is a great pianist. There are master pianists, grandmaster pianists, and super grandmaster pianists. You have to hear them live and close up to be sure. This performance puts him in the super grandmaster class. Van Cliburn was a super grand master. Lazar Berman in 1978, in Tallahassee and St. Petersburg Florida, was a sorcerer. I have only observed one such in six decades.
A most powerful, electrifying, energetic, fiery interpretation by Yundi Li! I truly enjoyed this amazing performance, and most of all, admire his technical ease.
I enjoyed this performance and his interpretation. It flows naturally and easily for him unlike others who seem to struggle with some of the difficult parts.
This is so beautiful. Every time I listen to this sonata, I am deeply touched. Some says yundi li's tempo is quite fast, but I think cause this is his own interpretation, this is really fresh. fresh and Everything he does is perfection. Technically perfect, and also emotions. And I think he also understand this sonata very well. I once saw a interview of Yundi li about this sonata. And he said this sonata is the life and death of the pianist. I think he has deep knowledge about this sonata. I thanks to liszt so much for making this masterpiece.
I compared this piece with many pianists and this is absolutely the best interpretation! I think the others play this piece with not enough force and speed, which Yundi perfectly masters. I am looking forward to see him next month in Luszern (Switzerland)
Still the greatest performance of Liszt’s masterpiece ever played. ❤ Yundi is and will always be the greatest pianist to grace audiences around the world.
Grandiosa interpretación del pianista Yundi Li: clara, bien expuestos los temas como los desarrollos y sus variantes, verdaderamente maravillosa vewrsión....
@@Highinsight7, by phony, I'm assuming that you mean the commenters that come on here with their user names Franz Liszt, Frederic Chopin, etc., and saying things like "I remember the day that I composed this part of this piece...etc." I honestly just find that kinda amusing
Impresionante pianista que recién conozco. Hasta el momento es la MEJOR INTERPRETACION DE LA SONATA DE LISZT EN VIDEO que he visto. Lo gana Pogorelich pero de éste no existe un buen video ejecutando esta obra de arte, Tiene gran ejecución, equilibrio y dulzura también.
Even years after having listened to it the first time and comparing it with so many renditions of this piece, Yundi's is still the best in this piece among pianists of new generation. Though, yes, it is immature. If he records the same piece again now, it would be absolutely an exciting news.
I bit more steadiness in the tempo would be necessary to make this grand sonata sound less than Liszt in fact making almost a mockery of the past. My point is that in this performance, there is too much virtuosity in relation to the content of what is printed on the score. But I must say, Yundi makes it very clear what is the climax and what should be the "low-point". That is not always easy to do on the piano. He plays well.
the range of dynamics in this piano and its sound. omg
The best version I have heard so far!
12:01 Beautiful harmony

The earliest winner of
Chopin competition...Yundi..
Sometimes I wonder if learning and executing such a piece is really human
totally agree

Steve Chen And could you tell us who is on your shortlist of those who can 'completely handle this piece' please?
Christophe Fournier zimerman, arrau, etc.
great
この演奏がロ短調ソナタの完成型なのかもしれないような気がします。

21:47...
저 모습 그대로 지금까지 이어져 왔다면 내 최애 피아노 연주자일텐데 너무 안타깝네
oameni ca el sunt adevaratii artisti dar din pacate in romania nu reprezinta nimic...
In some parts it looks like the 9th symphony of Beethoven.
저거 몇살적인가요? 최근연주는 처참하던데
2004년임. 윤디리 20대 초중반때임
I wish Yundi takes a hiatus to recharge then resume his career. He was a real phenomenon but nowadays he seems so distracted and sub par.
Ganja Mozart hm i was in warschau where i played an conducted chopin piano concertos 1&2 and it was sublime i think hes coming back
COMEBACK to this moment Yundi Li,,,what are you doing now...
He has been in a catatonic state since performing this piece.
진짜 호로비츠 연주에 꿀리지 않는 터프함 천재성ㅋㅋ
20:45 진짜 헛웃음밖에 .. 이런 독보적인 해석, 표현이 저 나이때 가능하긴한건가
지금은 망해버린게 아쉬울뿐
Why?
완전 깔끔하고 담백하고 정확하고 절제되고
완벽 그자체 연주다!!
이렇게 매력있는 연주는 첨 들어봄
세계1인자다 진짜...
박자리듬이 아주 기계같음...
표현력도 예술...걍 음악의신
더보기 루빈스테인도요?
이때 윤디 진짜 대단했음
윤디는 루빈스타인을 존경한다고 하는데ㅡ루빈보다 윤디가 나음.,,내가봤을때 지금까지의 연주자 통틀어 최고임 .루빈은 무룬 소리가 완전투명하긴한데,쇼팽작곡의 녹턴이나 마주르카에서 빛을 발하고 모든것에서는 아님..윤디쇼콩땨 갈라쇼보면 사람아님
요새 윤디리 손이 안따라주더라고여.. 슬픈일임
이때 윤디폼은 세계1인자였지 😢
이랬던 그는 지금 어디서 뭐하십니까..
리스트 소나타는 이 연주가 역대 최고인 듯...
이렇게 집중도가 놓고 감정이 깊은 리스트 소나타가 있을까..30분동안 사람을 들었다놨다 송두리째 흔들어놓은거같다

真希望以后还能听到这样的演奏
14:00
Wow.
In my opinion, probably one of the greatest minutes in the history of music
check out "Yundi Recital in France"16:26
It was great im France the best of Yumdi i
was in Baden -Baden Germany
암만 생각해도 리스트 소나타는 윤디가 넘사벽👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
ㅇㅈ
마지막 한 음까지 대단대단 했습니다. 마치 한 편의 드라마를 보는 듯 라자 베르만 이후 최고의 리스트로 들렸습니다. 당시 윤디는 어마무시한 아이돌 이었네요 ~~
근데 웃긴건 음원은 이 날것의 느낌이 안남 ㅠ 너무 아쉽
맨날 와서 들어도 맨날 존나 잘치네 왼손 옥타브 어케 저리하냐고 난 저 반속도로도 미스터치 맨날나는데 윤디리 버전이 확실히 시원함 이때 기량만 계속 유지됐어도 아..
20:15 that F#-E-D-C# !!!!!!unreal / the Resurrection of Liszt
Yes, I know what you mean, I love that part too. And, 7:45 - 8:28 is wild!! Don't you think?
전주만 들어도 다른 연주자들과는 공기가 다르네, 마왕이 있고 없고의 차이
모든 S.178 중 소름이 돋는 곡은 이것 뿐
루빈스타인은 정돈된 매력
윈디는 정돈되지 않은 마력!

One of the more demanding pieces of piano music demonstrating vast emotions. Great performance.
Flawless, he was so young yet had an outstanding skill on piano. 👏👏👏
He was about 22 years old, I believe. But yes, he is amazing.
진짜 쩐다 터프하고 카리스마 넘치고 완벽한 기교로, 그래 리스트는 이런 상남자 같은 연주가 필요하지!!
28:55 ~ 29:10 this is what is called silence.
Isn't that chord switch at 3:47/8 gorgeous? It just feels alien in the coolest way, yeah?
My all time favorite, best interpretation in many ways, and it is live!
It's full of passion, so grand, so majestic.
I'm almost cried when first time I listened to this version.
The best of yundi
My current repertoire sounds like children's songs compared to such work and interpretation. Amazing! :)
ME TOO. I JUST COMPOSE TUNES AS A HOBBY. IN THIS LIFE THAT WILL HAVE TO DO ME.
@@zennabella1676 are you ok
문디 윤디도 아닌 리윈디 시절...
wow the audience's attitude and manner is really good. they don't clap right after the performance is end.
This beautiful work of Liszt gives exactly how my feeling is yet!! Rest and unrest.
Well said. Rest and unrest.
Isn't that the joy of playing piano? You simultaneously feel your heart's deepest pains and pleasures together in one emotion there's no word for.
Amazing.... truly, a piece of art!
That was a little frightening at the end...seems like Yundi Li was having difficulty exiting
his Lisztian Trance.
신들린 연주다....
신의영역
Amazing interpretation! An awesome work written by Franz Liszt!
I compared this piece with many pianists and this is absolutely the best interpretation! I think the others play this piece with not enough force and speed, which Yundi perfectly masters. I am looking forward to see him next month in Luszern (Switzerland)
Force and speed 9/10, depth and subtlety 4/10
Just listen to André Laplante. Though I prefer Zimmerman's ending to Laplante's since its more powerful, I like Laplante's version the most as a whole
it's really amazing performance
Absolutely exceptional!
Wonderful, powerful performance, one of the best.
i counted 287 rubati. Guiness record!
I really wish him the best. I do not know what has happened to him nowadays...? this is great!
He just announced a tour for 2020.....He's back!!
so impressive and excellent.
하.. 이제 소나타 딴 거 못 듣겠다,,

Great interpretation on this beautiful, fantastic, difficult piece. I saw Lang Lang play it last month. Yundi does Liszt credit!
This piece comes from another word. Fantastic!
this dude is nothing less than awesome......... any criticisms are taken for what they are
+TJFNYC212 He's so well studied... and sincere... plays from his heart... and NOT phony.... like so many others...

8:39 the amount of feeling is too damn high
Yundi is amazing!
와 대단하다 진짜 완전 개성있고 최고임
great performance...great piece when can i play this level...
This sonata is such musical greatness AND such an intellectual achievement.
One of the GREATEST ... for the piano!
amazing
真的很棒，云迪永远是世界级的伟大钢琴家❤❤❤❤

Tiszt totally agreed
Great comment
I think Grynyuk’s is the best
Better than Richter, Brendel, Curzon..... right.
Bravo!!!!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Honestly, nobody does the 14:00 onwards the way yundi does. Truly exceptional.
Nobody plays like me either. lol
his liszt sonata is amazing.......
Fantastico pianista!
A master piece interpreted by a magician.
no, it's very good pianist
25:27 He plays regular 8th notes instead of triplets, jus like Zimerman.
And just like Argerich, Pogorelich,Rubinstein, Horowitz, and Annie Fischer too
GREAT... in every way!
Powerful, inspired, intelligent, sensible....etc
Wanderful
The piece is very difficult to get! That is good
Brillant !!!!!

yeah!!
A super super Big WOW❤❤
My favorite version of B minor
Liszt wasn't human. Liszt was genius with very big hands.
저러던분이 어째서..
Jesus Fucking Christ! I bet he played it better than Liszt himself! ;P
18:39
......Unbelievable.
C'est une interprétation très impressionnante, mais un peu grisée par sa virtuosité. Personnellement, je lui prèfère la version de Seong-Jin Cho.
I will really enjoy the silence starts from 28:56
Yundi Li was such a sensitive and pure artist... I was crying while driving on freeway. I hope he can back to his old form, really
@freddy flash, yes, Yudi Lee played Sonata in B minor amazingly. His talent is up there with Ling Ling, Valentina Lisista, and Evgeny Kissin
スゲー❗
15:10 very emotional moment…
