Daniil’s playing of Beethoven’s Opus 111 is utterly sublime. This is music beyond words, and I agree with Thomas Mann’s comments about the thirty-second, and last, piano sonata of Beethoven in his novel “Dr Faustus.” Not long ago I was asked what two items I would take with me into space. Knowing that others would take cameras etc, I, without hesitation, chose the Opus 111 and Bach’s “Art of the Fugue” played by Daniil Trifonov. Having again heard Daniil play both, my decision is stronger than ever. Words cannot express my thanks, Daniil, for being able to experience, in some small, your incredible gift and love for music
Я полностью согласна с Вашим выбором.Даниил совершенно сверхгениально исполняет именн эти два опуса.Сам плачет над последней сонатой Бетховена ,и я проливаю море слез. Петербург.
Otherworldly. Liszt held Bach as the highest form of genius, I imagine that it takes one to know one. Trifonov stands alone as the greatest pianist of our age.
There is no most brilliant pianist. Glenn Gould for example was far superior for Bach and Trifonov would say the same with no doubt. Same for Schiff if you want someone alive. He might be the best for Liszt and Rach though.
Trifonov is not the Greatest ever! The best are Really=Emil Gilels( The King Pianist!) Artur Rubinstein( The GOD!) Wilhelm Kempff( the most beautiful piano sound!) Radu Lupu( the most colorful piano sound!) Grigory Sokolov( The Giant of Piano! The Titan of Piano!) Sviatoslav Richter( The Genius!)
The care and attention paid to each and every note in the Bach/Liszt transcription was mind-blowing. All the voices in the fugue were joint soloists in this meticulous performance, The complex and most demanding Beethoven was a masterpiece throughout. Thank you for this memorable recording.
Soy de familia músicos. Para mi , Daniel lo tiene todo y lo sabe transmitir, sensibilidad, talento, arte y sobre todo luz. Es un ángel en la tierra llega al fondo del alma. Muchas gracias por existir.
Mr. Trifonov's playing is so expressive, sincere and heartfelt that he always makes me cry! The Beethoven second movement variations were transcendental. His understanding and re-creation of the architecture of that piece was truly inspired.
Quelle splendeur, cette interprétation de l'oeuvre extraordinaire de Bach, transcrite avec tant de sensibilité par Liszt. La suite de Beethoven est du même niveau. Voilà un jeune pianiste de l'école russe qui nous offre le meilleur. Bravo! C'est magnifique.
His op.111 shows he has the mind and can recreate Beethoven's awesome mighty world with weight and no false sense of pathos. The 2nd movement has never sounded so earthy and yet spiritual simultaneously.Yudina is back ! Hetotally there living it! And what beautiful sounds he can make at ff. As well his pianissimo is full bodied. He has it all . Richter would nod his timings,releases,pauses everything so very right !
Daniil is fantastic and one of the greatest concert pianists of all time. I am completely in a trance watching him and listening to him perform. He is also extremely handsome and smartly dressed.
J’en ai écouté des versions de l’opus 111, de brillantes, « trop" jazzy, cultes, virtuoses, lentes…etc., depuis quarante ans, mais je crois n’avoir jamais été autant suspendu, attentif, admiratif et ébahi devant la façon qu’a Trifonov de nous emmener dans ce crescendo. Beethoven est là, et toute la musique.
Thanks. Thanks. Thanks sooooooo much. I've cried. I already thought the previous performance from Daniil I heard on youtube to be exceptional, but it is utter garbage compared to this. He must have loved Lyon to give you such a performance there. This is simply stellar, and he's a bloody genius.
Who disliked this? This is one of the greatest interpretation of the OP. 111 I've ever heard. Trifonov's flame burns brightly. To hell with the haters.
@bodiloto's haterTry Pletnev's Carnegie Hall performance. Try Alfred Brendels most recent recording... his rendition of the Arietta is inspired... try many others.... Guiomar Novaes for example and the list goes on
Si hay alquien en el Planeta de la MÚSICA , QUE SEA PERFECTO, ESTE ES DANIIL TRIFONOV , lo digo con plena conciencia y desde lo más sublime de MI ESPÍRITU!
Probably the greatest pianist of all times. He is inspired, or possessed by the music at a level I have not seen before. His understanding (or creativity?) is what distinguishes him, beyond perfect instrumental mastery. Spellbinding is the best word IMO.
Has a more beautiful and magnificent piece of music ever been composed for the piano than Beethoven's final sonata? And Mr Trifonov's performance! The sorcerer transports us to the very heights of Mt Olympus with those enchanted fingers... I am in tears because there is nothing in this world, in this moment, which has moved me so profoundly as what I just heard... This is Rapture. Bravo, bravo!!!!
One of the new young generation of great piano virtuoso of the 21 century if not the best with musical soul and insight ,musical mature intelligence, staggering power living the music not just playing it! Bravo, bravo, and bravo!
This is an absolutely stunning interpretation of Liszt/Bach BWV 542! What is particularly outstanding is the transparency, avoiding that the heavy parts of the prelude become blurred. I can't wait to hear his interpreation of BWV 1080 which was scheduled for his 2020 tour and still awaits recording...
As an organist that plays this piece regularly, I would have throught that it would be almost imposible to transcribe it for piano.. Particularly the fugue. But this is ABSOLUTELY amazing. A totally stunning performance of an incredible transcription. Blown away by it!!!
That is because of his grandiose interpretation that I tried ( as an amator with the big help of my teacher ) to transcript the Fantasia from the Say transcription. If you have the patience to listen to it, I would take advices, knowing harp cannot reproduct organ, but it was done with all my heart.
WOW - that Opus 111 is extraordinarily good. quite incredible. one of the best I have ever come across in my near 40 year obsession with this sonata. the almost "fractal" (in the sense it plays with self-similarity) metrical changes in the Arietta are at once free-flowing and spontaneous-sounding but true to what Beethoven intends, which is a constant tempo, divided in two or into three, again and again until it becomes regular fast pulsation - the "twinkling star" of those high trills. it's a recreation in his own way of the older "divisions on a ground" variation technique, it's geometry that manages to convey a kind of joyous celestial clockwork, a "music of the stars" to follow the constant temporal instability of the first C minor movement where you have changes of tempo every few bars on some pages. this is perfectly realised and turned into song in Trifonov's performance, which is deeply touching and really reveals the conception of the piece itself.

Daniil Trifonov, cet artiste exceptionnel, musicien, interprète et compositeur génial, dépasse tout ce qui nous a été donné de voir et d'entendre depuis bien longtemps, y compris les plus grandes figures actuelles du piano (inutile de les nommer, ce ne serait pas généreux), et donne à l'humanité un nouveau rêve auquel nous ne croyions plus. Longue vie à toi Daniil, puisses-tu combler la vacuité qui se creuse en notre sein depuis des décennies, depuis la disparition des derniers grands pianistes virtuoses-compositeurs (eg. Scriabin, Rachmaninov, Prokofiev), et nous éclairer de tes sublimes partitions. Tu as tout du nouveau Messie musical.
Was soll man noch sagen ...keiner kann sagen wie Bach dieses Stück an einem Flügel unserer Zeit gespielt hätte..ich glaube er hätte diese Interpretation für sehr gut befunden...ich habe das Stück schon öfters auf unserer Orgel gespielt u. habe jetzt ein neues Bild bekommen was noch möglich ist... in jeder hinsicht ....vielen Dank!
I love his Beethoven, singing and dancing with such an intense depth and renewed spirit. Beethoven would have loved it himself, no doubt! And his Bach, one of the most grandiose piece of organ ever written, is simply transcendenting the music well beyond the notes. Bravo Maestro Trifonov !
Trifonov is an artist for the ages. Prodigious, unexcelled technique in the service of a very profound personal engagement with the expressive limits of his instrument, fueled by a passionate identification with every piece of music he plays. It doesn't matter what he plays...let him play everything with the same commitment and vulnerability... it will pay every honor to the composer, and console and inspire us all.
This is the greatest recording of Op.111 I've ever heard - and I've listened to dozens of versions for over 50 years. In fact, I can't imagine it being done better. It's as if he's got right into Beethoven's brain, and the music just pours out of his fingers. I am in complete awe. On a five-star system he scores six.
I am so humbled by his performances and feel so sad that I cannot see him in person more than perhaps yearly. He spends so much time in Europe, and I am in Socal.
My gosh, op.111. This is profoundly superb! I have to admit that I am always intrigued and fascinated by Trifonov's playing, but I don't always connect with it. This was different for me.
Daniil Trifonov is the greatest pianist in the 21st century.
What about Sasha Malofeev?
Daniil Trifonov ist einzigartig und nicht vergleichbar !

Divine. Both the composition and the pianist.
Bravo! Impressive playing. I forgot to breathe. Beethoven dreamed of heavenly joy. Tears are the most true human language. Thank you!

Absolutely one of the best interpretations of the Op. 111. Extremely intrinsic and deep.
listen to the interpretation by Yudina... much better.
since Arrau
Bravissimo❤
Liszt is the only composer in my opinion who can capture the sound of full organ in a piano
Grandiose, profond et d'une extrême sensibilité, et quelle virtuosité ! merci !
You are fantastic, thank you very much.
The genius of his generation 🔥🎆🔥🎆🔥🎆
I am so humbled by his performances and feel so sad that I cannot see him in person more than perhaps yearly. He spends so much time in Europe, and I am in Socal.
At the transition into the Arietta Trifonov looks like he say the ghost of Beethoven. So intense and transcendent playing!
I think, His Soul Is connected to the Composer he plays.
C'est un pur délice
Oh, btw, he played all of Liszt's transcendental etudes and an encore after this
Awesome
