i swear the fucking audience has their own cough concerto going on
You need in ear phones with noice canceling and a KI caugh filter.
Coming soon in your future KI-software shop. ;-)
She and the orchestra are really talking to each other. A fabulous performance.
Who the heck waits for all the build up and anticipation and then COUGHS on the opening note?! Put a sock in it or get thrown out!!!
The average retarded concertgoer
😂
Wonder if they were vax'ed and then booster shots too repeatedly?!
At least!
@@AndrewGBernhardtwhy do you wonder that? How obsessed are you people?
Who looks around like she does to the conductor to the orchestra and how she looks to her keyboard the way she does with excitement of a child playing is a true musician. The 4th probably the most difficult concerto for interpretation and technique is well developed. A great interpretation by a great musician. Love Beethoven love her.
Amen.
Sublime.
Transcendent...
My favest Beethoven Piano concerto, arguably my favest piano concerto, where playing everything in PURE Perfection is a must! And I agree with you! So much so that a poor interpretation of the 4th would be sacrilege to me! But This Is Perfection, Uchida, Mariss Jansons and orchestra together took us to another Special World where this sublime concerto exists.
Her Beethoven is tremendous.
THE best live performance I have ever attended was of Ms. Uchida playing piano and directing from the piano the English Chamber Orchestra in Mozart's piano concerto no. 22. Us, the audience, was left stunned by the performance. I felt emotionally moved with sort of a buzz for several days afterward. This happened nearly 40 years ago and I still remember it vividly. I even remember Ms. Uchida's outfit.
Doubtlessly one of the greatest piano players of our times! She plays Mozart, Beethoven and Schumann in the most perfect and soulful way.
Appassionata by beethoven
And Schubert
and Shoenberg
@@markvarley2962Sorry
not to mention Chumbawumba
[00:11] I. Allegro moderato
[20:50] II. Andante con moto
[25:39] III. Rondo (Vivace)
I. cadenza 14:50 - 18:50
The most skillful and heartfelt interpretation.
Uchida is most talented but also a special person who is here to make our world a better place.
No doubt.
The way how she understands and 'sings' the orchestra parts, I can already predict how great her performance will be...
absolutely!
Young Y: This should be VERY EASY: It's almost perfect, without exceptions. See?
Great performance! Haters get over yourselves regarding her facial expressions. If you've ever played Beethoven, you know the music is amazing and your body gets possessed by the spirit. She's also communicating/acting to the conductor so he can interpret and react with the orchestra.
Talk about dramatic moment ... that entrance fixed with anticipation and then such gentle pressure on the keys to bring out the sublime. A gift that keeps giving, thank you Mitsuko Uchida.
The entrance followed by one moron in the audience who couldn't hold back a cough for literally 5 seconds.

Để,zppp
Yes, it's a very dramatic moment. Like you say, sublime. Its like she's putting all her weight into that first chord, but it's so delicate and so incredibly profound. You can even see some people in the orchestra taking a breath before she starts. Beethoven was such an amazing genius. And Uchida brings so much depth to the music. Pity about the coughing though...
@@charmoka❤
There's a reverence and delicacy in this performance and Dame Mitsuko has the magical ability to illuminate the whole work differently from any other pianist. So good that it dragged me away from my reading until I had to desist altogether. A very rare occurrence.
I think she is in another realm and is feeling every note i n her spirit
The performances of Uchida on Beethoven, Mozart, Schumann, and Schubert will always be very close to my heart. She understands these four so well on a musical level, that whenever she plays their compositions, it is almost as if she is communicating with them directly. It is the joy of every composer to hear their composition come to life, and Uchida is there to explain to them how beautiful the music is that they heard in their heads.
I am sure that Beethoven, Mozart, Schumann and Schubert would be happy to know that their compositions are still played, and at such a high level of musicality and sensitivity.
Ms. Uchida's style is well suited for Beethoven's most original piano concerto. She captures it's mercurial qualities, playfulness, mistery and ethereality.
Her best version is with Kurt Sanderling and the Concertgebouw.
What a second movement . What a wonderful dialogue between piano and orchestra. What messages of pain and hope at this time when the world is about to explode.
Mitsuko Uchida is well known as a Mozart player, but this performance proves that she is excellent in Beethoven as well. 内田さんはモーツアルトの演奏家として知られていますが、この演奏を聞くと、彼女のベートーベンも素晴らしいと思います。シカゴでの生演奏も何回か聞きましたが、彼女は本当に日本が誇る世界最高の演奏家の一人です。末永く、御健康を祈念しています。
I feel Beethoven's soul in Dame Uchida's piano performance.
Mitsuko is probably my all-time favorite pianist!
Mine too.
And Master Claudio Arrau
If you only hear the first few chords, you are in another world....Thank you for this inspiring performance
I love Uchida
Selcuk Aytimur I love her better. Duellum! Name your assistants!
So do I.
After listening to Ms Uschida's masterclass right before, takes this masterpiece to a even higher level.
I want to praise the wind instruments and conductor for adding such gorgeous and balanced color behind Uchida. It really enhanced the performance.
Sitting, listening in my car at lunchtime I just heard her play this on WQXR radio New York and had to make a comment. I do not know if I heard this particular recording or a different one, but I am stupefied at how she can make that piano ring like a bell. I do not know what the correct term is, but I'll call it a "glissando" how she strikes the keys going up and down the Scale, and I heard each note ring like a bell, and the low notes were played much like thunder in the background... As others said here, the first word that comes to mind is "sublime". Edit: I am listening again, this time on TH-cam on Bose Earbuds, and I must say it sounded more dynamic when I heard it in the car, plus the was no audience noise between movements (maybe it was muted on the radio) or this YT recording is different from what I heard on the radio.
This wonderful woman was born to perform this concerto, Beethoven's most heartfelt and introspective. Her playing reminds me so much of Emil Gilels.
+teetonball1 I can't agree with the comparison with Gilels, who was pretty much in a class of his own. Uchida' playing is undoubtedly very fine, but rather lightweight, whereas Gilels was one of the most full blooded pianists ever with a leonine tone that few have ever got close to. Also in this concerto Gilels played the rarely heard and much harder double trill cadenza with total aplomb....
Hmmmm interesting point, I'm going to have to revisit some older recordings methinks. I still think that Gilels 1957 recording (I think) with the Philharmonia under Leopold Ludwig (Testament) is unsurpassed and if any recording can be said to be "definitive" that one surely must be in contention. The opening solo is more felt than heard. Superb.
PS I'm a listener not a musician so I suppose I have a different perspective.
+teetonball1 But obviously a very sensitive listener..... Whilst Michelangeli and Richter can on occasion reach unsurpassed heights of transcendence, if i was allowed to listen to only one pianist evermore it would be Gilels.
If you're interested in a modern performance that I'd consider equally great as the gilels, let me recommend to you the recording of Buchbinders live performance with the Vienna Philarmonic. Absolutely fantastic playing and incredible cohesion with the orchestra, which I prefer to the Gilels recording. Although it's really cool to hear Gilels play that alternative almost Rachmaninov-esque cadenza. I wonder why it's so rarely performed today. I might prefer the more popular one overall, but I don't see a good reason to neglect the other one.
Her articulation is extraordinary.
Uchida, Jansons, the Bavarian RSO - what a combination!
The entire orchestra without a shadow of doubt is postively belessed.
All credit to the visual and sound directors and production staff. Every musical moment captured perfectly.
WHAT a recording! headphones on, sit back and relax to experience a trip. WONder full. What control, what dexterity. Beautiful. I suspect that my brain does not work as well as hers and I'm grateful to hear it. Complete and utter respect for the conductor too though. What a marriage of conductor, soloist and orchestra. In parts it's sublime. Leaves me full of love and admiration for the piece and the art
What a wonderful dynamic and heartfelt passionate performance... To me this was Beethoven's finest piano concerto... It has the most beautiful second movement - Mitsuko and orchestra were playing together perfectly... Bravo
This is wonderful, but no. 24 is beyond exquisite.
@@kristin1533 Beethoven's 4th is far superior to Mozart's concerto.
shes such a genius. beautiful. phenomenal
GREAT MUSICIAN , GREAT PIANIST, IMPECCABLE STYLE , ORCHESTRA , MARISS JANSONS , THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC.
Memorable performance, beautifully played, I was in the arena, near middle front. One of my favourite Beethoven 4 symphonies.
Concertos- there were 5. The 5th is called “Emperor,” I don’t know why. LVB may have thought about dedicating this to him, but was enraged when Napoleon began battering the walls of Vienna with his cannons. I also like this concerto, his 4th, best. Beethoven wrote 9 symphonies.
Aaaah, the fourth ... ! This uniquely magnificent and beautiful concerto.
Hard to describe this performance because it is just so, so incredibly brilliant .. !!!
The orchestra and conductor, absolutely fabulous. And excellently recorded.
Mitsuko Uchida is almost beyond description. Her interpretation is just so amazing that it shows perfectly the under realized great genius, giant genius of Beethoven.
You can see in the this whole performance what a giant Beethoven really is..
That very short coda to the first movement and final coda shows very clearly this great genius of Beethoven, all so magnificently performed by orchestra and Mitsuko.
Fantastic 😊
i COULD WATCH THIS LADY ALL DAY. i LOVE HER PASSION AND THE CARE SHE TAKES OF THE MUSIC.
A gem. She is pure joy and sublime emotions.... Live performance transcendent beyond music and listening; another communicative conscious realm. That's great art.
A Fabulous live Performance by Uchida/Jansons and Bavarian Radio Symphony. This must be a pinnacle.
Für mich eine persönliche Offenbarung. Sie hat sich schon seit längerem in mein Herz gespielt. Uchida gehört für mich zu den 2 besten Pianistinnen aller Zeiten. Aber hier geht es über die Normalität weit hinaus. Ich höre nun seit über 55 Jahren Klaviermusik und hatte selbst einmal einen originalen Steinway Flügel.. Aber ich kann mich nicht erinnern so ein wundervolles Klavierspiel jemals gehört zu haben.Haben Sie Dank dafür, Frau Uchida !!
The purest approach to Beethoven both from soloist , conductor and orchestra.
‘Ole sister Uchida plays this most Shakespearean poetic of piano concertos like an Ancient Greek tragedy chorus whispering at the impending death of the heroic Titan. This, my favorite of Beethoven’s piano concertos tells a dynamic tale that’s both earth shattering and redemptive. If music expresses wordless odyssey’s this truly epic journey takes all the world along to stand in awe at the expression of the great genius sonic boom by Ludwig Van Beethoven. PWG
28:13 My favorite segment; always brings tears in my eyes. my lost love returns to my memories............
She appears to have Gods Blessing.
God gave Uchida to us. she
adds so much grace and
lightness on the keys.
Great orchestral color
from the players.
She speaks to Beethoven himself in the moment before her fingers touch the keys
Wunderschön interpretiert. Das spürt man schon beim ersten Anschlag von Mitsuko...
Mitsuko Uchida is living every sound! the magic of music!!!
Всегда умно и музыкально!! Браво!
I love how when she lands that final chord she reveals how much force it had required all along.
I still say Ludwig was the world's first great jazz composer
神のつくった芸術。
言葉が出ない。涙しか出てこない。
twoset brought me here and I was not disappointed
Mrs. Uchida, great concert pianist, dynamic and sensitive at the same time. A great performer of the genius Beethoven.
I like Mitsuko Uchida very much.Her performance is great
Just without any words: Beethoven! The Master of classical music! It`s music from heaven. Heavenly, celestial, divine, godlike! There are three Masters: Bach, Beethoven and Mozart. And Beethoven is surely one of the Greatest artists ever! It‘s like a dream, Not understandable for a simple human being!
la concentration et la préparation du premier accord !!!
ces deux mains avec le poids du corps !!!
superbe !!!
Superbe tout court. Sublime!
She really flexed with those ornaments in the beginning of the final movement 💪🏼
Her dynamic and control is unreal. A true maestro pianist. The understanding of the structure and the execution of beautiful piano playing. Unlike any no. 4 I’ve ever heard. Truly sublime.
It can't exist a better rendition of this concerto (except for Backhaus)
She is so unbelievably AMAZING! I love the faces she makes too :)
This can only be a work of a genius!!
This beethoven concert is really a másterwork only for high spirits AMD sensible...
Absolutely exquisite. I could go on for days attempting to describe the beauty, eloquence and resplendence of Ms. Uchida, this orchestra and Ludwig Van. It just gives me chills.
My favorite concerto to play bassoon in.
So beautiful and powerful and yet delicate like the wings of a butterfly. Wonderful performance orchestra and all. Mitsuko Uchida has such grace, expression and total command.
A treasure of an interpretation !!! Bravissima Maestra Uchida ! RIP Great Maestro Mariss Jansons :(
People who are joking about Ms Uchida faces don't deserve to be here
This is now my favourite piano concerto.
How does it beat no. 5
@@i34p Does it have to?
For you, I mean. You said jts your favourite concerto?
@@i34p Piano concerto, certainly.
5 is an amazing work, but 4 is rather more contemplative, along with the revolutionary opening with the piano as solo instrument.
Further, my musical ineptitude sayeth not.
There are pieces I love in part.
1, for me, has the greatest finale in all music, possibly excepting the Waldstein.
Mainly, when it comes down to Ludwig v Wolfgang I grit my teeth and vote Beethoven.
@@OnASeasideMissionAbsolutely agree
This is the best interpretation ever listed for the concerto n°4. The sentiment and interpretation of the pianist is equivalent to the compositor genius. Sublime using deeply the piano virtuality, Mitsuko Uchida is technically flawless. Relevant is the sublime way how she extracted the superb sound, that becomes this masterpiece magnificent. The player interior feeling of the music is amazing.Viva Beethoven and this superb pianist!!!
I agree. Her style is tailor made for tue 4th piano concerto. My favorite version indeed.
Namumyohorengekyo
it's ultimate Beethoven piano concerto ever played out so absolutely perfect. True music captured Uchida no other pianists could ever realised. what a grace and sprit
There is so much pure joy in this concerto!
Beautiful...I have seen this video maybe 100 times!
She gives me goosebumps. Such passion.
Uchida is magic.
Amo troppo questa donna ❤ Grandissima! ♥️🌈
uchida made my day.. what a wonderful life..
She is one of the Gramophone Hall of Fame. Well done!
Merci Mitsuko, pour cette sublime interprétation du concerto no 4 de Beethoven ! Que du bonheur !
I love her expression as she plays. A God given talent!
In a performance of this concerto at the Leeds piano competition, the conductor Mark Elder, believed that the slow movement to be inspired by the trial of Jesus by Pilate.
Listening to this wonderful performance on Good Friday, I'm inclined to agree with him.
"Where do you come from?" he asked Jesus, but Jesus gave him no answer.
Thank you sharing this.
A great, moving and tragic interpretation.
this is the most inspiring and soulful performance for me! With lightness and verve!
Dont you just wish that 16:40 could just go on forever?
Absolutely gorgeous!
Absolutely fabulous videography and sound by the BBC.
El duo perfecto.Mitsuko Uchida al piano y conduciendo Mariss Jansons y luego una magnífica orquesta.
one a of the best composizione ever,,, ludwig i love youuuuuuuuu
What a wonderful combination, the orchestra and Uchida playing as one... Uchida gets the utmost soul-felt sounds from this wonderful piano concerto, in my opinion, one of the best that Beethoven wrote, especially that wonderful slow movement..... Every time I hear Uchida playing this I feel like I have gone to heaven.....
She is emotional because she feels the Magic. Just my opinion
🌷
Top performance💕💙💕💙💕💙❤Divine🍀
Mariss have gone and I have no notice about Mitsuko! She plays wonderfully this concert!!!
She is now Dame Mitsuko! 😃
Very pretty,her performing is simply,faithful and respetable,happiness.
Amazing . Bravo.
Beautiful!
I love her cadenza
She gave me a new insight for much further improving my own performance. Thanks so much Ms Uchida.
PS: And Uchida is genius in her was to play Beethoven. But Never forget who has composed such genius music!
meravigliosa ineguagliabile interprete, donna di immensa sensibilità, affascinante!
I've listened to this piece with wonder and ecstasy for 50 years (still thick the Fleisher/Szell is the best). I think Ive heard it just too many times, and then time passes and I hear it again, like now, and it's magic again; really, a miracle.
