Wow... definitely a very powerful and warm rendition of that sonata. I guess that's no surprise since apparently he worked with Boris Berman for his master's degree and now Andre Laplante. Somehow I absolutely never heard about this guy before the Chopin piano competition. In this age of young superstars competing to be the youngest admitted at Juilliard or Curtis, of for the earliest debut at Carnegie Hall, it's kind of refreshing to see an "older" guy succeed. He went through the "regular" local university and eventually emerged as a mature and very competent pianist. Congrats.
yes, so true, and especially since Curtis and Julliard now accept anyone over their own countrymen. Some of those total foreigners get in because someone important there patronizes them. Some of them are 'freak of nature' type prodigies who later push all sorts of gimmicks, but that doesn't make them the most quality musicians in the long run. This guy truly is a respectable and honest continuation for the likes of Richter and Zimmerman. No gimmicks here.
I would hardly call the Yale School of Music a "regular" local university lol...it is in many ways just as prestigious as Juilliard.
Yeah but he did his BA, at the crucial age of 18-22, at McGill. It's a great, world-renowned university, but not for its piano department, which - and this is just a statement of fact - is not considered world class like Julliard, Curtis, Yale or even the Cleveland Institute of Music.
JUILLIARD? CURTIS? WHAT ABOUT THE MAGNIFICENT STUDIES BEING CARRIED OUT IN UCRAIN, RUSSIA, FRANCE, GERMANY, ETC. WE DO NO LONGER PAY JUST IN USA PETRO DOLLARS.
@@ronwalker4849 calm down
Charles Richard-Hamelin owns this sonata. This is the best rendition I have ever heard.
It's amazing
Totally!
This is one the very best. Also, listen to Kapell!
I loved Kate Liu's equally
He’s great! I’m torn between him and Fialkowska
0:00 I. Allegro maestoso (B minor)
8:44 II. Scherzo: Molto vivace (Eb major, Trio in B major)
11:09 III. Largo (B major)
20:38 IV. Finale. Presto non tanto (B minor)
What does "trio" mean over here
@@lczq6737 A middle section of a Scherzo or Minuet I think
@@TSPPiano Yes 👍
@@lczq6737 read up "Scherzo and Trio" form on wikipedia. it's a type of structure in music, most commonly seen in the 3rd movements of classical-era sonatas and symphonies
A
13:42 this part is just, impossibly beautiful. Not only Chopin writing such melody, Charles is performing in a way that no one else can
In my opinion i like the way Trifonov played that melody which was in a recording from Chopin competition. It’s at 14:24, th-cam.com/video/_LtmeGgtJNA/w-d-xo.html
You should hear Kapell's version, it's probably the best performance of this sonata
Marvelous. Clear and long phrasing, contrasts, rich palette of sounds, Chopin like it should be. And this amazing accelerando in the end (24:47)... WOW!
Thats what i call accelerando!! perfect.
I think it's the best version of this sonata I've ever listened to
24:57 Last moment was absolutely stunning! The way he controls decresendo and pedal is just…… OMG he is brilliant pianist!
5:56 Surely one of Chopin's most beautiful melodies
The best performance of this sonata for sure. What an incredible, deep musician.
yo long time no see
I have to agree this interpretation is totally awesome... Saw him play it live in Montreal. I have to say Daniil Trifonov's version is also something to be proud of...
I agree
@@yanicsoulieres5088 Montrealer myself and very proud of this great musician. I would say listen to Sultanov's (Tokyo recital) interpretation, too. He was unreal.
One of those few ultimate combinations of soul and intellect that are heard in a lifetime. Congratulations Charles!
For me, he's the one that should have gotten the first prize
@@Smortnt he is definitely up there at the top. But I am supportive of the judges' decision to put Cho as first place.
@@Smortnt I haven't really heard much about Hamelin now. Is he having any events recently?
@@lczq6737 rarely gives concerts, as far as I know. He didn't even come to the yearly Chopin and His Europe if J remember correctly.
@@FrostDirt he actually did i think, he gave a performance of brahms (or was it schumann?) sonata
This is the best ever interpretation of this sonata. His virtuosity is especially demonstrated in the fourth movement. He deserves the first prize. BRAVO, Charles!
this is my favorite performance of this piece. wow.
Completely desereving of best performance of the Sonata. Well done!
Best version of this sonata, everything was beautifully played
He is the new Zimerman, his sound is just .... Amazing, can't describe
The best recording of this sonata I’ve ever heard.
That feeling of weightlessness @ 23:50 ... Unmatched by any other performance I know of. Truly one of the best Chopin Sonata 3 performances ever - duly rewarded by Mr. Zimerman himself.
I think it actually sounds better with added weight, as was portrayed by Kate Liu’s rendition. It adds a fiery texture.
@@moderncaleb3923 And your point being...?
@@konigstephan they were just offering their opinion on what they think sounds good
@@irvinnguyen6485 Thanks, wasn't aware of that detail. Come to think of it, ''modern caleb'' actually changed my mind, he's ABSOLUTELY right. That added weight, yeah... Gosh, how could I possibly have missed that............
수많은 곡을 들어봤지만 아믈랭의 소나타3번4악장이 최고에요
동감이에요
완전 공감합니다.. 소나타3번은 항상 아믈랭 버전으로 듣게되네요
괜히 소나타 상을 따로 받은게 아닙니다.. 조성진도 금메달 외에도 다른 상도 받았으면 좋았을텐데 ㅠㅠ
@@AidenHammerfist 폴로네이즈상 받았음 소나타상보다 상금이 적긴하지만..
Genialny pianista, genialne wykonanie. Kompozytor też był niezły 😊😊 A tak serio to Charles był moim faworytem już od samego początku. Jeśli ktoś umie tak grać, że we mnie wszystko jest poruszone, to nie sposób nie zachwycać się pianistą. Fenomen. Szczęśliwie w wakacje 2016 miałam okazję wysłuchać go też na żywo na koncercie w Filharmonii. Chopina słucham od 1980 roku, wiele konkursów za mną. A Kanadyjczyk skradł me muzyczne serce. Może jeszcze kiedyś będę miała okazję go posłuchać. On czuje Chopina dokładnie tak jak ja, z każdą subtelnością lub siła dźwięku. Bardzo się cieszę, że on do nas przyjechał, że miałam okazję go poznać.
Beautiful interpretation bravo
Never heard a yamaha sound so gorgeous
I think charles is able to make any piano sound like a 200.000$ Yamaha
@@Smortnt I'd agree indeed
A noble and warm interpretation! Everything is so completely thought through, nothing is haphazard. Gorgeously burnished tone quality (from a Yamaha, no less).
Danny B. He chooses to play with Yamaha
He's a Yamaha artist. I think people aren't aware of the CFX apart from the often bright C series that they are used to hearing or G or U1 and U3 type of uprights. That's why they are surprised by this instrument. The CFX is a significant change for Yamaha's sound.
That is true, the CFX series can compete with the top of Steinway's
Yes, as does the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX in this competition. Some put the Fazioli that's in this competition in an even higher rung. Different pianos have different characteristics. I know the CFX. It's a totally re-engineered, redesigned Yamaha with a new tonal character that Yamaha has now put into some of their other grands. But it's a new instrument, just introduced in 2010. People go with what they see, not what they're hearing. The CFX is a very lyrical instrument. It's the Hamburg Steinway that has the more bold, big tone and I don't find it as lyrical as the Yamaha. By comparison, this Yamaha is delicate. Both are great. But they are very different. The Steinway sings too, but differently. Viva la difference. It's nice for the listener to hear a lot of fine pianos rather than the same Steinway all of the time.
I do agree with you, also yeah its good to see someone move from the Steinway used all the time.
I frequently come back to this recording. CRH is a great artist and I believe we will hear a lot more from him.

Risk taker. Love it!
This piano piece is it for me. I've been listening to a recording for many years, of Malcolm Fraser playing this piece on an excellent Telarc recording, and whenever I listen to it, I am put into a trance-like state, in awe of Chopin's god-like brilliance. There's no more beautiful a piano piece ever written; it is musical perfection.
Idk why this doesn't get more views. It's the best interpretation out there.
I'm surprised it has less views than Kate Liu's...
Blechacz is better I guess
@@Spigll Hamelin is better at this sonata by a longshot.
@@Algoroxno
Heinrich Neuhaus rendition is on youtube
amazing finale.. wow.. so great performance, especially at the last movement. Bravo!!
Magnifique performance! Quel contrôle, calme et musicalité...sans parler du talent à revendre! Mon coup de coeur!
I am looking forward to him playing Liszt Sonata.
The first Canadian to ever win the Chopin competition. My hat to you Sir, you have a wonderful talent.
Unfortunately, he got 2nd overall... but he did win for best performance of a sonata.
I think it counts as winning when you get 1st, 2nd, or 3rd
@@isaachernando8560 yes, even though hamelin got 2nd place, for me he has always been first
This young gentleman is a true artist. I have rarely heard such depth, passion, sense of line, solid technique in one individual. This rendition of the b minor sonata is one to keep listening to for more and more discoveries. Carl Filtsch, a child prodigy, was still a boy when he was taking lessons from Chopin himself in 1841. After a performance, Chopin put his hand on his shoulder and exclaimed, "That, ladies, is called talent". I would dare say that Chopin might have put his hand on mr. Hamelin's shoulder and uttered the same words. We will never know, but there's great talent here, no doubt.
Truly, passion
It's as if he was playing a beginning piece - absolutely effortlessly. Really jealous! To play this well you need it all - virtuoso technique, artistic depth, structural knowledge. Like many pieces you have to know it so well that all the concentration is on the interpretation, phrasing and "story".
How sweat this is.... My heart was melted by the first movement
+Emma Lee I think you mean "how sweet this is" (and not "sweat") : )
thestratford51 OMG You're right. XD Sooooo Sweet. Not sweating. :-p
He's such a good pianist!
One of the best interpretations of this Sonata that I’ve heard.
4악장 미쳤다..이거 외엔 이젠 4악장으로 안 들려ㅜㅜ
Hamelin never got a no in all his rounds and he is the only one to do so! Both him and Cho are great, though i honestly listen more to Hamelin and like more his concerto.
j k hdhdhahahaag well I wouldn’t go that far, he only plays like a robot in a way that he is seemingly always 100% precise. I love his playing but this is the way of the modern pianist, no mistakes etc. That wasn’t important back in the day, with players like Horowitz. Even Liszt was said to have made many mistakes while playing
I suggest Hamelin's F minor concerto, it's excellent.
@@finngape8503 Actually there are a few mistakes. But being flawless does not mean one plays like a robot. Cmon , this guy plays like a robot? Maybe in 1000 years with AI at its best.
@@shilloshillos no way does he play like a robot, I think he’s an outstanding pianist
Cho basically got all yes’ because Philippe Entremont gave Cho a 1/10 in his E minor Concerto in the final round for purely personal reasons!
Incredible!
It was extremely beautiful !
Je ressens ma fierté québécoise devant ce talent à qui je souhaite une longue et brillante carrière.Mille mercis.
Wonderful Playing! Very much in a Chopin style!
It was bound to happen. That was obvious that he would receive the Krystian Zimerman Prize.
How so? Why was it obvious?
@@mertcandarli cuz he played it so well
I couldn't agree
@@alchimie78 charles Richard is amazing and you can't deny that
One of the most beautiful versions of this sonata I have heard. Charles Richard-Hamelin brings each note to life. He is super creative and his technique is impeccable. Bravo !
Le plus grand interprète de Chopin de ce concours, le réel premier prix. Sonorité, intensité du discours et surtout il laisse la musique s'exprimer et non l'inverse.
La vrai grandeur: la simplicité, la profondeur et il est l'interprète qui sert la musique.
Absolutely stunning playing! So gorgeous!
i really think charles should have won.....i loved everthing he played......a real joy to listen to.....very generous performer......
I think that he should've won too
印象深い物語が素晴らしく丁寧に表現されている。表現の深さ、広さに感動する。音を大切にするとは、こういうことなんだなと思い知らされた。
He is so invested and immersed. It really makes for an emotional performance.
Ravi ! I see Cho everywhere but this man has what I think might endear him to audience . There must be great teachers surely in Canada ! A very masculine no cheap emotion performance . I've never heard it at this almost too fast tempo esp . since he does have a beauiful sound . Perfect tempo in the skittish scherzo . The Largo might be the most beautiful thing Chopin ever wrote .
Charles Richard Hamelin met en lumière la sensibilité toute française de Chopin par sa clarté et son éloquence.
Chopin = Polish folk music plus Beethoven
20:39 - Finale, Presto non tanto
23:52 - 24:35 - 24:57
Many listeners below say this is the “best” Chopin B minor Sonata, but it’s not clear which others they’ve heard. To offer selective context here are thoughts on some famous contenders:
- Percy Grainger, who thought this the finest of all sonatas - including Beethoven’s! - reveals its structure as only a composer can while singing with Aussie open-air lyricism ;
- Alfred Cortot’s romantic sensibility for me is more redolent of Schumann, Liszt and Cesar Franck than the more classical Chopin (but note that this is heresy);
- Josef Hofmann left only a test of the first movement, in the “non-spectacular” style he saved for the studio, as opposed to the concert hall. It’s must-hear because at his scrupulous best no one matched Hofmann’s mastery, as his friend Rachmaninoff happily conceded;
- Dinu Lipatti is perfection for countless cognoscenti, but to hear him at his most vital find the few live performances, especially the E minor concerto and encores that follow;
- Guiomar Novaes (how did Philips exclude her from their Great Pianists series?) is dramatic in a ‘40s studio recording, then dreamy for Vox in the ‘50s but always uniquely poetic;
- Rubinstein waited decades to commit this sonata to posterity and the results are worth it, but (as I heard many times) he was also more unbuttoned in person;
- Martha Argerich’s early EMI recording is magnificent and not as incendiary as she could be in person;
- Zimerman and Pollini are perhaps too self-conscious;
- Nelson Goerner’s “debut” on EMI is another must-hear, with many of Richard-Hamelin’s virtues, including long lines, warmth and attention to detail that never draws attention to itself.
In fact, I would place both those performances at or near the top - if we must have a top. And we don’t. Chopin is too great for that. Thanks for letting me rattle on.

He deserved it
Kocham tę jego Sonatę! I love this Sonata, Charles! The best performance in the world.
On ne sait ce qu'on peut admirer le plus dans ce jeu car tout est admirable !
Wow, beautiful melody and how sweet it sounds.
This is truly Perfect.
So much smiling and PUREEEEEST JOY from this sexy man. He is enjoyin playing it so much he cannot help but, smile. PIANIST LIKE THIS is what inspires me.
Charles Le ROI !!! Congratulations!
He is a powerful player to be sure. HUGE sound. I bet his Rachmaninov is fun to listen to.
Serious genius at work here....
정말 최고에요 쇼팽 컴페티션의 쇼팽 소나타 중에 2005년 Rafal Blehacz연주와 더불어 제일 좋아해요
Grandissimo musicista......: controllo assoluto del suono, padronanza della forma e grande sensibilità. Lo Yamaha é uno strumento coerente e comodo, ma il Fazioli avrebbe esaltato ancor di più la sua innata cantabilità. In finale sicuramente!!
Beautiful! Congratulations!!!
Simply amazing!
The coughing in between movements is a liiitle crazy... better than during the performance I suppose
Yea. Clapping inbetween movements have now become cough-by-purpose inbetween movements
내 인생 소나타다...
Bravo M.Hamelin,magnifique et M.Andre Laplante professeur émérite.Au plaisir de vous entendre en concert.
Yeah! That young man pianist with the ‘Ole sage soul certainly knows” whereof he affirms.” I noticed this video some days ago but resisted because of the splendid interpretations I have heard of late. Well, this is just as impressive. This sonata being so very cryptic elusive in concept and progression will maintain it’s modernity and poetic fire relevance for all time. Chopin had to had been extremely pleased and exultant in this piece. It would be interesting to know how long he practiced it to perfection. The last movement was taken at an absolutely breathtaking clip. I feared it would break down except this young man’s heroic mastery pushed every limit to the max and then back again. I, of course, am glad I reconsidered to take this epic journey. Thank you Mr. Charles for an exemplary exposition of one of my all time favorites! You have a brilliant career ahead of you for sure!

A GENUINE SENSE OF ORGANIC NATURAL MUSICALITY, AS BEAUTIFUL AS NATURE ITSELF.
Magnifique interprétation, BRAVO.

The piece is performed with an exceptional technique and a mature sense of Chopin's music. Bravo!
Beautiful playing, really breautiful. Congratulations!
gotta love the 3rd movement. that e major theme in the middle
quel tempo rapide et quelle précision dans le 4ème mouvement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pour moi c'est la meilleure interpretation de cette Sonate! Bravo!
좋네요ㅎ 아믈랭은 오른손 특히 중지 약지 새끼손까락이 엄청 부드러운거 같아요 ㅎ
Sensibilité, finesse et incroyable virtuosité. Charles Richard-Hamelin vous êtes un athlète du piano!
19:00 this part is might be one of the reason why he got best sonata prize..
Incredible performance!!
Une remarquable interprétation de la troisième sonate, équilibrée et puissante !

Especially the ending was just fantastic
So amazing!! I think you are the best.
Kristian Zimmerman knows whom to reward..
+Aleksandra Vander Hoek From what I've read, Zimerman was very impressed with Cho.
+Vette gaddia Where did you read this?
Niraj Suresh Many posters have said the on YTube. These are reliable posters, so I trust they were telling the truth.
+Aleksandra Vander Hoek Very apt comparison. Richard-Hamelin's technique and general approach to the piano is quite similar to Zimerman's.
+Niraj Suresh Kyung Wha Chung, a violinist, said Zimerman sent SMS to her, 'this is gold' after Zimerman watched Cho's final round in her interview with Korean newspaper and broadcasting. According to Shogo Kariyazaki's blog who is a famous Japanese florist, Zimerman visited Cho's green room after Cho's recital on 23rd Nov 2015 in Japan.
Brilliant performance! I had goosebumps all over me as I was listening.
This is a real highlight of the entire competition. Reminds me of the classic Martha Argerich version from Abbey Road studios in 1965.
i think there is more soul and heart here than in Argerich's playing
I think that's a safe bet, whether you've heard Argerich or not.
@@comment6864 Oh, I think she was pretty cautious in those days. It wasn't too long since here year of depression. It's remarkable she came back so strong.

Greatest interpretation of chopin sonata no.3
❤️❤️❤️ I love this man
I'm touched he's the performance l look forwored to becoming a great pianist
master
I never realized how much insipiration Scriabin took from Chopin (extremely evident in this Sonata)
This is the exact playing of Chopin ! I have listened to numerous versions and performances of this piece but only this is the closest to Chopin's own way of playing this piece as I heard him in my dream !
Haha!
@@amber40494 I’m serious though! I saw Chopin in a dream playing this piece and it’s close to this style but Chopin’s style was also so singing and at times he played so slow and trajectory at other times but in such a good way that is so unique! I still hear his playing in my ears and it’s so sublime but also close to this rendition!
Wonderful!:*
