Dmitri Shostakovich
Piano Concerto No. 2 in F major, Op. 102
Dmitri Shostakovich, piano
Orchestre National de la Radiodiffusion Française
André Cluytens, conductor - เพลง
When I was in high school in the 1950's in Louisville, Shostakovitch came to town and I had the privilege of shaking hands with him. I have admired his works for many years!! He originally wrote this concerto for his son. The last movement incorporates the Hanon exercises. This was how he got his son to practice them!
Too cool! I didn't know about the Hannon exercises. Unfortunately, DSCH died almost 3 years before I was born.
I did shake Mstislav Rostropovich's hand when he came to New Orleans in February of 1994 with the NSO on the second year of a multi-year federal grant as cultural ambassadors to places within the US that were considered culturally deprived. They went to Alaska the first year... Ha!
you are so lucky to have met shostakovich
Thats something better then winning the lottery,
@@jihwanju6812 So great !! I got to shake hands with each one of the Borodin String Quartet, the original members and get their autographs on the same sheet. That quartet were very close to this great composer.
OMG!! You are so lucky! Shostakovich is one of my favorite people in the whole world. Not only did he write incredibly powerful music, but he also taught it to the next generation and so on to mine (millennials). I studied Shostakovich and his music during my time as a music major at Central Washington University when I played his 10th symphony with the CWU Symphony Orchestra under Dr. Nikolas Caoile. It took 2-4 hours of practicing every day, seeking help several times a week, and many tears of frustration to get it just right within five months. But, you know what? I learned a lot from it. I learned how to be persistent, yet patient, and I made HUGE progress as a musician.
Furthermore, I also love to watch Shostakovich's old lecture films as learning tools, as well as a source of inspiration. Joseph Stalin often attended his lectures, and Shostakovitch most certainly was not afraid to shake his fist at him to standing up for his people, even though he was banished to Siberia for a year.
As a schoolboy at a boarding school in Ireland in the late 1950s I wrote to Dmitri Shostakovich when he was in hospital in Leningrad. He was amused to receive a letter from an Irish kid and wrote back. Years later my wife & I were invited to meet Maxim Shostakovich at the Festival Hall in London. Almost 60 years ago my wife (at that time) won the All England Ballet competition dancing to the second movement . the beatiful Andante.
After learning he wrote this piece for his son, all I can think is how it sounds so different from his other pieces, which are harsh and dissonant and filled with so much pain. But this song sounds... warm. Just warm and bright and joy. Even the slow second movement has a deep tenderness to it. And it was the one he wrote for his kid.
It ain't a song, it's a piece. But tottaly agree with your comment
Maxim, his son was deeply loved by Shostakovich and this concerto was a gift to his son. His son actually gave the first performance of the piece.
Yes, I cry about Shostie too. The image of him sitting in his clothes in a chair outside of his family apartment attempting to sleep, worried that the KCB might be coming
to get him and he didn't want to scare his family. Life under Stalin was horrible for everyone but Stalin. How a country could allow this to happen is beyond me!
@@leoinsf Lenin's death was unprecedented. The people of the country greatly respected him, because for the few years he did rule, Russia was prospering and people were happy. Artistic freedom had reached its highest point. But when Lenin suddenly died, nobody could do much as Stalin took over and established authoritarian control over Russia.
@@dmitridmitriyevichshostako2548 Thank you for your enlightening comment!
@@leoinsf Have a look at 1 John 5:19 Russia even today is very susceptible. History may repeat itself yet.
When I played this in college, the conductor complained about my fast tempi in mvt 1 & 3. Now, after many years, I feel vindicated to hear him go even faster. The delightful energy in the outer movements showcases even more the "rose" in the middle.
And he doesn't keep tempo, he suddenly speeds up and slows down.
It's a story of life, survival, and love. Its supposed to be a bit manic, as life inevitably us. I think your conductor needs to remember that music is art, and the same piece of music can paint completely different pictures
This Concerto is on of the best works of art ever created. The first movement is almost manic. It swells in high emotion, and then fades to this light sweet melody, the second movement is one of the most beautiful things i've heard in my whole life, and the last movement is more fun to listen to than anything.
I must agree, this music piece is nearly incomprehensibly fantastic. I've thankfully known it since I was a young boy, but still to this day when I listen to some parts of it I am absolutely amazed by its genius and brilliance. It's great to hear him play himself like he felt it should be play, aggressively and with such power. I'm blown away!
A friend played the andante for me on a lonely 50th birthday and the entire piece (by Shostakovich but ever more, with Bernstein's andante) has been part of me ever since...
Well put, Squire!
How, after hearing Shostakovich play this piece, can any other pianist play it - and they do - knowing how the composer himself intended for it to be played? Isn't that inhibiting? If the pianist has different ideas for the piece, is that legitimate or "wrong"? Given that Shostakovich showed the world how he wanted the piece played? I'd be happy to hear the opinions of pianists who have dealt with this issue, in this or other pieces played by the composer.
@@erpollock Rachmaniov considered his interpretations of his own works inferior to that of Hofmann and Horowitz. Great composers do not always make for the greatest pianists.
Kabelevsky never had the problems Shostakovich had with Stalin and the Communist Party because he chose to write in an accessible style.
Poor Shostakovitch was a thousand-times the composer Kabelevsky was and actually slept on a chair in the hallway of his apartment because
he didn't want his family disturbed if the KCB came for him.
He lived in complete fear for most of his life, but continued to explore all the reaches of modern Russian classical style with no thought for
his safety.
His 2nd Concerto is a complete gift to his son and was written so his young son could play it comfortably which I believe he did.
It is a gift to me that Shostakovich in the late 50's or early 60's came to the United States to visit and inspect conservatories and music schools
because Russia was attempting to modernize its music tutelage.
I was in a Music History class at San Francisco State College and in walks Dimitri Shostakovich and takes a seat directly in back of me.
(I could smell the guy he was so close!) Ah, the heavenly memories of an 83 year old ex-music student!!!
he was honestly a hero. in so many ways.
Oh my god what a privilege you had, sir. I wish I lived in the same timeline as him, or at least get to know him I would ask him so many questions.
@foxyjohnuk We are talking 1960 here and I was a bashful young college kid who would never have just walked up to him to speak with him.
As it turned out, this was a Dr. Wendell Otey Advanced Music History class at San Francisco State and you were intimidated by the stature of the teacher
and the complexity of what was being taught. I was busy taking notes. I would never have interrupted the class to talk with him.
I have a feeling that Dr. Otey, like all the teachers on the music staff knew that Shostie was on campus and understood that the composer wanted to see the class in session.
(I am not sure what his level of English was anyway.)
As it turned out, Shostakovich just sat there for about ten minutes and watched with that owlish look of intensity to get the general gist of what was happening in the moment.
Before I knew it he was gone - off to another class - and my encounter with history became a personal memory that would never be forgotten!
@@leoinsf thank you for sharing this anecdote with us, stories like these tell more (or at least something different) than a simple biography.
Shostackovich and Prokofiev are my favorites composers, but I lived there and knew more than you found in Volkov's book. By the time Shostakovich wrote 2nd Concerto he was dominating together with Prokofiev and Khachaturyan all stages of the Soviet Union. He wrote the concerto you are correct for his son, Maxim "so his young son could play it comfortably which I believe he did." And his son, a musician of average abilities and even smaller interest in hard work, did not play comfortably at the All-Union competition of young performers. The farther wrote the concerto for Maxim to win the first place, but he fell short of his expectations. Only out of respect for his farther, the jury awarded Maxim "honorable sixth place mentioning". It is may be true, somewhat almost neurotic Shostakovich was afraid of many things and of KGB too. That was his nature and had he moved to the USA he would be afraid of The Commission on Anti-American Activity at that time headed by Ronald Reagan. And his contemporary Prokofiev did not give a sheeeet to any "commissions" no matter where he lived. Prokofiev could sit at the boring meetings of Soviet Professional Union of Composers and listen to crap of speakers and than in the mid of somebodies speech rose to his feet and just walk out, leaving behind a strong cloud of his favorite French perfume. This is all irrelevant, Shostakovich is the greatest composer of 20th century, the most accurate historian of Soviet epoch, and he was a man of his time with all shortcomings, naïve hopes and fears, shy and yet with tremendous creative courage that nobody could stop.
Read Richard Taruskin, go to Moscow and listen to Katerina Izmajlova in the Kremlin Palace. Only then you will start understanding the great man.

But: *allegro* ... never more allegro than here! He kills allegro. "Bring down every wall for God's sake!!"
Thank you!
It doesn't get much better than this! A recording of the composer playing his own piece!! Wonderful!! :)
That andante is one of the most gorgeous things he ever wrote. I can't get enough of it.
“Shostakovich plays Shostakovich”
*wow*
On fire! Nothing better than listening to the composer playing his own piece.
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Back in 1984, when I was at age 13, I had a first listen to this concert over broadcast. Part 1 and 3 didn't catch me much, but the 2nd movement was a real shock. I fell in love immediately. Since we neither had TH-cam nor Amazon 32 years ago, I begged my father to call the radio station to get me a copy of this recording. And he actually got it for my 14th birthday, on a simple tape of course.
We had an old, quite detuned Steinway O model at home, but this was kind of reserved for my sister, who got lessons playing the piano. I had been playing the violin since age 5 and never liked it much. But money was too short to fulfill my secret wish of getting piano lessons, too. However, when nobody was at home, I sat down on the piano and pressed the tape ON/OFF buttons for almost every single chord and note that I heard, trying to position my fingers correctly. About one year later I was well capable playing the (quite simple) second part without any glitches. In 1988, the other parts followed. I still didn't like them much, but I thought it should be the complete picture. 2 years later, I performed the concert live on a fantastic tuned B-211 with a small but selected orchestra. I can't tell if I was performing good or not, but in fact all the people that I meet until today who used to only know me at this time, were always referring to this concert. It was a success :)
Today I know that the version that I studied and -probably- managed to reproduce accurately once upon a time was played by Vlademir Ashkenazy. We also have this on TH-cam today. This is a great version in terms of a balance between sonic quality and playing. We have Matsuev (my god, this is somewhat bad!), Liebman (surprisingly good, at age 10), we have a fantastic version from Steven Osborne (best sound/performance balance, suspiciously close to Ashkenazy, but played perfectly) and some others.
Before seeing this upload it was new to me that the composer himself is also available. He obviously performs worse than the others, but to be honest, I couldn't care less. This is the only version where I listen from the heart. It sounds like he was still improvising. With a free mind, not a trained one. Amazing. Simply amazing.
MFASonic Your story is simply inspirational
MFASonic> Thank you for sharing this intimate story of your musical experience.
What a story! Thank you for sharing this, I'm honestly touched. This concerto is one of my favorites and I come back listening to it regularly and my favorite interpretation is by Andrey Korobeynokov
What a lovely comment, thank you for sharing. I was 13 in 1984 too and immediately loved the second movement (how can one NOT?!). There's a nice piano version (orchestra plus piano transcribed for piano only, I mean) my dad recently started playing that sounds not too difficult to play, but it sounds as if you don't need it with your own personal version. I may try to pick it out, you've inspired me! Thank you!
Bravo for pursuing your passion!! I remember hearing a piece on the radio at about the same age and chasing down the sheet music. I think it was beyond me but you would not have been deterred and would have played it by ear. It seems so rare to me that I am taken with a piece of music and must chase it down to play it. It’s the most fabulous thing! I hope I can experience that again.
How lovely to hear the great man play the concerto himself. It definitely sounds faster than most contemporary versions. The second movement seems to me to convey the great love DSCH felt for his son Maxim (for whom the concerto was composed as a graduation piece in the late 1950s).
Shostakovich was known in his lifetime for his fast interpretations of not only his music but of others as well. He was also a bundle of nervous energy, always fidgeting.
At the graduation performance Maxim got B, to be exact in Soviet system -B, that -4. Shostakovitch the farther has been concerned about his able but rather lazy son and did not expect outstanding performance from Maxim. Dmitri Shostakovich, the man of his time he knew what to do. Shortly after Maxim began to play at his graduation exam, Dmitri Shostakovitch entered a special lodge where jury was seating and silently took a seat. The jury, also people of his time, also knew what to do - they inflated the grade. It was not the first time and not the last they did it for Maxim. Maxim and I had common circle of friends, these friends were more gifted and more accomplished, more serious but not so well connected. I love Shostakovitch, my favorite composer, and with time and age I love and I think I understand him better and better.
4:02 It ALWAYS reduce me to tears. I can't imagine how somebody could create something so magnificent, so perfect, so enormous. It's like an invasion to the soul. I feel so impressed when I listen this concert in special, even all Shostakovich music is extraordinary.
The Andante Movement is absolutely sublime!
Recorded in 1958, in mono. Amazing quality, amazing music.
The second movement was vary somber but not sad, relaxing but not mundane, lively but not over genetic. This second part is so amazing and carefully made.
My little grandchildren “dance” to his music May they grow to love it too!
You, sir, are one flippin good grandad.
wow idc
@@charchar.. what
One of the best composers of all time - I'm so thankful to live in a time where we can listen to him interpreting his own compositions.
2nd movement is so deep and sublime pure genius.Can almost see the Angels playing it in heaven can,t you?
Those falling figures in the right hand at 7:55 are absolutely gorgeous.
I certainly agree that hearing the composer play his own work adds another dimension. I can feel the emotion in every strike of the keys. You can definitely hear and feel the difference. Thank you for sharing this. The second movement takes you on such a ride that your feet don't touch the ground until after the last note is played
I just adore this music, start to finish. I am constantly amazed and thankful that this man, Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich, had the courage to continue composing -- "stay with it"-- given the things he had to endure.
It took a lot of balls to stand up _even to Stalin_ and keep writing music.
Well said, Steve!
Daddy Dmitri's birthday gift for his son Maxim... and Maxim was actually the first performer. Isn't that incredibly sweet?
In the second movement, I always picture it as a father and son having a conversation about saying goodbye. the right hand is the son saying that he is not ready, and the lower left hand is the father saying that he would like to continue, but he just can't anymore, and it is time for his son to go off into the mysterious world. The end, father speaks to himself, alone. And the son, also speaks alone, both scared. Then the third movement comes in, a new and exciting world for the son to explore.

i like poetic comments, and you might be a grade 7. I am grade auto didact
Thank you for your beautiful comment Logan, amazing. Beautiful interpretation
Lovely
Logan Lentilus I approve of this interpretation
I have the second movement memorized! It's probably my favorite piece to play because you can add in so much of your own emotion through the dynamics
Even without the orchestra? :)
Sometimes I listen in disbelief that this piece is also composed by the same genius who wrote the 8th string quartet. Man, Shostakovich is really one of the greatest composers.
Эта музыка строить и жить помогает!
Поистине, Дмитрий Шостакович величайший композитор 20 века.
I first listened to this piece about 30 years ago. It still has an almost overwhelming emotional effect on me every time I hear it. Utter genius!
What a nice concerto. Originally I heard of people talking about it as a more light mood concerto written for his son, but this also has parts with pain as well, like the second movement.
unbelievably beautiful
The second movement is so comforting and encouraging.
don't get me wrong, the andante is pure beauty, but what made me come back to this music initially (i first heard it because alexei ratmansky choreographed a ballet to this concerto) were the allegros and their addictive melody. every moment of this music is my favorite though
I can't listen to this without goosebumps. My student is playing the second movement in a concerto festival, so I get to play the accompaniment part with her.
How'd it go?
@@christianvennemann9008 still rehearsing, but she's getting it. Just working on memorizing it now.
@@ruthowen6921 Good luck!
@@ruthowen6921 When is the performance? Do tell us how it went after it's over. Best wishes to you and your student for your performance!
Especially I like romantic Andante, is a masterpiece, you can say a lullaby for the soul
Hands down...best performance by composer/performer of his own work...so inspiring!!...you cannot be more uplifted than listening to this concerto!!
Ce second concerto (que j'adore pour son dynamisme, sa fougue et la poésie si attachante de l'andante) semble avoir une autre dimension sous les doigts du compositeur : une interprétation très "enlevée", fascinante...
Quel veinard, ce Maxim, d'avoir reçu de son père un cadeau d'anniversaire aussi chargé d'affection !
Amazing performance and excellent audio quailty. It's wonderful to hear Shostakovich himself performing this great Piano Concerto. Thank you for posting!
How do you compliment the composer of such beautiful work? You cannot imagine a human being so capable. He makes us all transcend ourselves.
He is the hero of the Russian people and some of us Americans too. Every passage of everything he wrote spans the agony and hope for his people. Each is a life story of pathos and fury!
Shostakovich. Unsung hero of amazing music
Pensée fraternelle pour ce grand maître de la musique russe qui m'enchantera toujours, merci !
Enfin un mélomane français! Je suis contente de ne pas être la seule représentante de mon pays à apprécier Shostakovich et à l’écrire!
@@user-hl8hc1xo8d le 1er concerto pour violoncelle et orchestre (1959) et tout le reste
I performed his first piano concerto with the danish radio symphony orchestra. Dimitrij was among the audience and Maxim conducted
GREAT & FANTASTIC ! Just Beautiful !
Very touching and graceful on movement 2. No other words could describe it.
quel bonheur d'entendre chostakovitch jouer en personne une des ses oeuvres sublimes ,, quelle poésie et quelle force dans la composition de ce concerto et l'on peut comprendre que beaucoup considèrent dimitri comme le compositeur qui redonna leur courage aux forces soviétiques envahies par les nazis sanguinaires ,, il suffit d'entendre ses symphonies majeures pour imaginer l'influence prépondérante de cet immense artiste qu'il ne faudrait pas cantonner au seul musicien de la révolte militaire qu'il renia jamais ,, chostakovitch dépasse ces pures considérations révolutionnaires qui eurent une influence salvatrice mais fort de ces introspections purement militaires chostakovich fut bien l'un des plus grands compositeurs du 20 émé siècle tant son oeuvre immense , humaine , labyrinthique philosophique nous transporte d'un bonheur ineffable comme le firent en leur temps les bach haydn , schubert mozart schubert beethoven schumann , brahms mendelsohn , les chopin bruckner , wolf , schoenberg debussy , prokoviev, rachmaninov , scriabine , satie fauré ravel et tant d'autres qu'il serait trop long de citer ici ,,,, et même d'immenses maîtres reconnaissent humblement toutes les nouveautés dans construction intrinsèque apportée par un artiste trop souvent cloîtré à un rôle de factotum au service se son altesse joseph vissarionovitch djougashvili dit staline petit père des peuples et grand pourvoyeur de mains de d'oeuvre pour les goulags friands de sibérie ,,
Идеальный концерт и по форме и по содержанию! Браво, маэстро!
A powerful and uplifting piece of music to be sure! With such vitality!!
Thanks for uploading!
A masterpiece from a true genius
He gives the piece a vitality which is missing in most other recorded versions.
Then listen Yuja Wang onder the baton of Lahav Shani
An excellent advocate for all three of these parts. The compression and passion of many writings without difficulty for this extraordinary virtuoso'
Insane first movement
Brillante, muchas gracias, admirable es la música de Shostakovich!!!!
Exhilarating, calming... a joy.
me: Soo how can i feel the music?
Dimitri: yes
One of those gorgeous "sad-happy" pieces. I love music that makes me feel like that.
Listening to Shostakovich just gets me to think of all the different movie composers he must've inspired... Definitely hearing that evolution of some people like John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Danny Elfman...
Most are excited by the fast first movement, (like with Prokofieve and Khachaturian) but it is with the slower 2nd that these peices find their true meaning and our souls.
Exactly, a little like Prokofiev, as if Shostakovitch, tells us - I can do it like you. Two absolutely different composers, absolutely different personalities lived at the same time. They used to seat at the same boring meetings of the Union of Composers, used to spend weekends at the same country house of Composers, had to deal with the same type Soviet bureaucrats in the Ministry of Culture, argued with the same type of producers - and yet each their body movement, every word, and of course their music were different.
At the official annual meeting of Soviet composers Shostakovitch was seating tense and always worried about something with his thin lips tight through the whole boredom of speeches. Prokofiev, in his almost orange jacket would come late and with his crossed legs stretch carelessly and comfortably in a chair, then, in the mid of some particularly idiotic speech would rise to his feet and off out of the hall, leaving a cloud of his favorite French perfume in the air. I love them both.
Un andante sublime, gran concierto.
The 2nd movement is so beautiful!!!
i love all the movements but the first movement is so underrated i love it the most
Yes the 2nd movement WOW. I heard that he began writing this the night one of his children was born. i have 5 so i can dig it
Grazie per questo capolavoro
Thanks to Disney's Fantasia 2000 I come to know this fantastic world of classical music! 😍😍
I still can imagine all the scene from Disney's Soldier of lead 😁
That was where I first heard it too. I took a great love to Fantasia in my teens and went to see 2000 when it was in the cinema. I almost feel like the lowest part of 2000 was the Sorceror's Apprentice - all the rest were great music with great cartoons set to them.
@@TheMimiSard I totally agree with you! I just don't understad why these movies have not been successful.
First Disney film I saw
fantasia was the healthy food my parents got to eat and enjoy and it made me grow big and strong
Shostakovich as pianist: dry and quirky as ever he was. "Desiccated" and not quite ideal for Chopin nocturnes, it was whispered: but here it works marvellously. Hear this through and you may never want or like another version again. Not even the orchestra can keep up with him. A bit mad, and also sheer heaven.
This was the first version I ever heard. Most others sound too slick.
That's exactly how i play the piano, bombastic
He captured his time and place better than any other cultural figure of the Soviet Union of that time. The Great Experiment of Human Engineering was still going and he was in the very midst of it.
I recognize and remember, the sounds of the street, popular melodies, sound track of popular movies all is part of his fabric music, interwoven with his thoughts, sometimes heavy, frequent doubts and endless questions, questions. This music is still so relevant today. And so beautiful. It has everything.
Well said ❤🎉
❤❤❤ SUBLIME l’Andante joué par le maître lui-même!!! Naturellement meilleure version! Ça me met les larmes aux yeux, c’est si beau....
Wonderful
That cadenza at 4:36 is so insanely pushed in tempo, it's embodied schizophrenia!
Sorry, I'm studying music on my own, but in spanish (I'm mexican) and I'm not sure what "cadenza" means, can you tell me what does it mean?
Ricardo Daniel Zapata Carreón Yep sure, cadenza is a section in a concerto or concert piece featuring only the soloist (no orchestra) and is usually quite virtuosic.
I played this for my Concert years ago when I was still studying Music .... it is really a fun piece and so different while others playing Mozart or concerto that very well known. this one is like having fun and care free playing in a funfair. and this piece really draw alot attention...lol
He's a genius composer! Definitely one of my favourite ones
I love it. Full of temperamet - Mayen of his child, curious to Discovery the world. And after that:The Andande is so soft & Calm and full of love and empathy, very nice. The best part.
Love this!
i have to play it soon!! 💟
1악장 절정으로 치닫는 과정에 속도 변화없이 그냥 휘몰아치는.... 역시 작곡가의 해석이란 생각이 듭니다...
J'ai toujours adoré ce merveilleux concerto -- et chaque fois que je l'écoute interprété par le compositeur, je trouve qu'il le joue de façon plus sensible, plus sobre, plus poétique que les virtuoses actuels, dont les tempi me semblent précipités, au détriment de la sensibilité. (Opinion subjective, bien entendu !) Le deuxième mouvement est si chargé d'émotion que les yeux 'piquent'...
Je suis d’accord avec vous, rien de mieux que Chostakovitch joué par lui- même, comme rien de mieux que Rachmaninov joué par Rachmaninov! Même si certains pianistes sont très très bons aussi..... et l’andante de ce concerto me met aussi les larmes aux yeux...❤❤❤❤❤
Если бы музыку можно было бы генерировать в электричество, то от Второго концерта Шостаковича перегорели бы все предохранители. Энергия зашкаливает....
Yearning beauty in the Andante
Sometimes I forget how much I love music - and then I hear this. Why do I ever do anything else ? - because I simply don't have the strength !
just experienced the Symphony Tacoma perform this with soloist Charlie Albright (brilliant). A really awesome performance, and my first exposure to this piece (played some Shosty in uni, great music). Preceded by a movement by R&B and jazz performer Patrice Rushen, and succeeded by Tchaikovsky's 6th (another first).
The program was commented on by a percussionist to be "all Russian." lmao
🏃♀️💃❤💛🖤Qué hermoso!!!
Cannot comment amazing
Wow! I feel like I won the lottery, finding this. thank you!
Preciosa pieza del concierto. No la había oído antes,,fue Mari Jarvi pianista de Estonia quien me abrió la curiosidad.
Un capolavoro!
I like it, so much.-

Thank you so much!!! Very helpful. 😊
Это-просто так замечательно, что нет слов! Гениально!!! Шостаковича, наверное можно было назвать самым великим композитором ХХ века, если бы не было Прокофьева.
Печально, что практически никто из современных пианистов так и не понял, о чём эта музыка..., прослушали бы внимательнее авторское исполнение. Обмельчали умы...
Как по мне, этот концерт автобиографичен. В первой части безмятежные мотивы детства перекликаются с мрачными картинами Первой мировой, двух революций и голодных 1920-х. Вторая часть - это поэтическое посвящение Другу, Учителю и Духовному Наставнику Глазунову - недаром в главной теме слышны отголоски глазуновской "Песни менестреля". Финал - искрящийся, упоительный, виртуозный, но не без юмора: в постоянно повторяющихся ганоновских пассажах проглядывает портрет Строгого Учителя Фортепиано - Леонида Николаева, благодаря которому мы и слышим в записи виртуозную игру Дмитрия Шостаковича.
toda una joyita
Playing this while I bath my 8 month old baby. She seems to love it! Yay!
