Even if his playing is not 100% perfect in a technical way of regarding, I still think this is somewhat of a new way in playing this sonata no 17. His playing shows new possibilities how one can interprete this music.
Una interpretación diferente. Emotiva,pero si se quiere seca y sin momentos de emotividad. La interrelación en sí es brillante, pero se pierden matices, a mi parecer fundamentales! 22:47
Why isn’t the venue packed? If it’s a free concert (no disrespect to this wonderful young man) why wasn’t this opportunity seized? I certainly would have enjoyed & respected Mr Kit if the opportunity was available. But thank you for sharing your incredible talent & thanks to the person who posted this.
By his history and method and by his mom who is a white chaser, beggar in our Western churches and at Brendel, he is a cockroach in our Western culture with his mom together. He knows exactly why he sells himself for free, he is a wannabe trash, does not belong in our Western culture!
When Alfred Brendel had retired from public conserts he had Kit Armstrong as his protégé and gave him lessons in piano playing. Maybe we can hear a little of Brendels influence in Armstrongs wonderful playing?
Surely not, Armstrong is his own character, and also Brendel taught him to aupport his own personality. Besides Brendel gave him "lessons" during his own active career, and also not as his successor!
I feel like one of those people who criticize every little detail. At the same time he could have played (just heard the last movement) this a little slower in order to play more "right" notes or whatever lol (or it's just my taste). I've been practicing it for a while, otherwise I probably wouldn't have heard them though! Also, I do not play it any better than him, it takes courage to do this in front of the audience and in his playing I liked the colour changes (whatever this actually means. Haha). Anyway, feel free to tell your opinion (politely.. lol)
@@staffanolofsson8201 yea otherwise it would be super boring xD I guess in the end it's just a matter of taste or what you were used to, soo.. Idk why I write this haha
❤ Beethoven ❤ Kit Armstrong you rock the world ❣️ In my opinion I would love to see schools teaching kids classical music, we need to let them know that there are more and better, than nasty lyrics of rap, rock metal and twerking.
Van Ludvig Beethoven exactly meant what Kit Armstrong read for the audience . I hear that right hand theme from the 17teen : " No worry, I am right and left, both. The meaning of this music is to smooth the huge waves from the big Dinosaur till the little movements of the just a field - Lizard, or geicko, or something as nonpoisonous serpent in a manageable size. "
I’d like to add a bit more. The venue is a little confusing. Not a Concert Hall. Not a Conservatorium or Theatre but can handle his magnificent Concert Grand with ease. Now the audience looks like a motley crew. Getting dressed up wasn’t part of their agenda. But Mr Kit. Wow. His beautiful tuxedo, his stark white shirt. His concentration. But you know what? His beautiful presentation would perhaps have been better appreciated by his laid back audience if he’d simply worn jeans & a t-shirt. No offence Mr Kit but I know I would have dreamed of one day just opening this musical score if you’d dressed down. Not trying to play because I couldn’t, but if you could perform in casual clothing I could dream while wearing mine. Bless you & your magnificent talent.
@@staffanolofsson8201 thank you very much for letting me know. Political meetings sound a bit nasty but every country has its own ways. I’m glad you & I shared this wonderful performance from either side of the world. I’m talking to you in a country town in Australia. Bless you friend. Della
@@dellamcgowan7502 And bless you Della. This Bonn is the former capital of West Germany during the Cold War. You can see the Eagle, and look at all the microphones on the desks. So nice the political speeches now has turned into good music in this place. And that this place is open for good music.
This boy is still a child. Give him a chance! He still has a long way to travel. And he will quite possibly be as magnificent as Arrau when he grows up.
@@quaver1239 You know, "gifted" can be translated to "forced by parents to play piano since 3 years old" - And you can hear it, poor dude plays like a machine no emotion, there is no joy. This is just sad.
Quite a poor interpretation, which is absolutely unsuitable for EU parliament building and audience. I hope Kit Armstrong will change his style; if you want an obvious illustration, try to play I. or III. at the speed of 120% and you will hear straight away that the melody is broken. That is not an interpretation, that is poor performance... not a catastrophe from the other hand... seemed like a lot of people liked that... ...but a gentlemen in the first row was not tricked and just enjoyed reading his book during the performance Kit, you have job to do in respect of your performance approach (I believe, your technic is superb)

Wonderful interpretation of this "Tempest". Thank you, Kit Armstrong!
Even if his playing is not 100% perfect in a technical way of regarding, I still think this is somewhat of a new way in playing this sonata no 17. His playing shows new possibilities how one can interprete this music.
But sorry to say DW Classical you are wrong when you mark out different movements, for example the Adagio at 5:26!

C est un élève d Alfred Brendel son Beethoven est forcément très bien travaillé
Loved it. Time to tune my piano and get back to playing at my level (much, much lower than yours!)
Very beautiful budeshalle in Bonn😅
3악장을 저렇게 파워풀하게 치는 피아니스트는 거의 보지 못했는데 와우
❤ Beethoven ❤
Kit Armstrong you rock the world ❣️
In my opinion I would love to see schools teaching kids classical music, we need to let them know that there are more and better, than nasty lyrics of rap, rock metal and twerking.
Calming music 😇
I agree with you. The people now think, that if someone is on tv it is because of it a very good musician, but they dont listen
1:14 sounds jazzy af
This is the most powerful play of Sonata No.17 I’ve ever seen… He’s gonna destroy the piano🤨

Is this the reincarnation of Wilhelm Kempff?

I think it is in Bonn, the former capital of West Germany. Looks like a place for political meetings.

that was overspeed, this Tempest should be fast, but not that fast. Kissin's or Valentina's speed for this piece should be appropriate.
Very dramatic. He is one with the piano.
Le falta pasión. Que pasa con los intérpretes de ahora? Rubinstein...Arrau....esos si que tocaban

Eh.. I could just as well play a MIDI file on my computer, and it would have more soul and personality than this "performance"...
В точку-маэстро....
Oh, but you are a genius. And this young man is only "the most gifted student" that Alfred Brendel has "ever encountered."
