This is truly the ultimate level of pianistic complexity. Yuliana Avdeeva is definitively an "all in one" pianist. Outstanding. What an utterly and memorable performance.Bravo. Bravissimo!
Yulianna created a deeply affecting experience of this great work, making it so easy to be caught up in every moment.of this eloquent human drama. Brava!!
The more often I listen to Yuliana Avdeeva´s performance the more speechless I become. This performance is so much better than all others in terms of clarity, virtuoso precision, deep musicality and the outstanding touch. In addition this is a live concert that no one has ever been so close to flawless played. 👋👋👋👋👋
The precision of a diamond-cutter. Every stroke delivered with clear intent and care. Truly conveys the feeling of encountering a series of powerful images.
31:01 she has such great control of volume, staccato, and pedals, her left-hand thumb touching that D# sounds heavenly. The best performance of this piece I've ever heard.
I couldn't believe how she was fully penetrating into the music of Mussorgsky of Pictures while listening her recital at Yokohama Minato Mirai Hall February 2019. It was like a magic, the air of the concert made audience to give their heart to Avdeeva. I knew that she had have a distinctive artistry in her generation. I don't feel like comparing Avdeeva and other artists, but I have to say she is one of the purest and the most honest pianists that I have known so far. She always showed me a sort of essence of the intention of the composers and its music as well. Nowadays, it is hard to deliver the real significance to people because lately classical music has become very commercialised... Despite the fact that the popularisation of the classical music she has been making her genuine efforts to give shape her own deepest values that she seeks in the classical music over the years. In addition to her steadfast attitude towards music, I had been thinking that she will be suitable for her relatively the bigger pieces such as this music and Fantasie in C major, Wanderer, of Franz Schubert which she is playing these days. During the concert, I thought in deed I was correct in the end. She did paint on the piano on how she has been interpreting without exaggeration. I just thought it was so beautiful. I will never forget it... Hope Yulianna Avdeeva's projects goes well.
I totally agree! :-) There are several 'show people' nowadays with great technical ability. but not her depth of character and lack of ostentation of=r gimmicks.
The Sound. Good Lord the SOUND. Wow... And that glorious middle E flat in La grande porte... Clearly one of the best Pictures I've ever heard, live or studio.
I heard Avdeeva play this piece in Budapest last winter... so wonderful to be able to hear a live recording from another recital! she's such an inspiration, a true artist bringing pure emotions and sharp intelligence into the performance. brilliant heart and mind.
Lucky anyone who has heard her in live performance. I'm speechless about this one here. She has got be be or become one of th very great pianists ever? And no film -lam and show-osff tricks. Intelligence, musicality and always servant of the music. Wow. :-)
@@mbvglider I agree. Yuliana Avdeeva is defenetively an "all in one" pianist. In 50 Years of celebrating classical music, I´ve never heard such a pianistic complexity. I'm really mesmerized from her.
Especially The Great Gate of Kiev that she plays with exquisite skill Ìs full of the solemnity and the sorrows I can't listen to this music without tears
I'm glad I found this comment. I thought maybe something's wrong with me. I'm not a fan of classical music, I listen mostly to rock and classic R'n'B. But this performance moved me to tears.
Merci! Moussorgski , comme Dostoïevski et comme vous même pensent à juste titre que la beauté est le vrai mystère...celui qui sauvera le monde. Jean Christophe Doubroff
This specutacular performance she plays with exquisite skill and breathtaking technique and splendid attire is beyond description , immeasurable , unfathomable , inspirational , graceful and comfortable to the ear and the mind Without Mussorgsky and his great performer like Yulianna , the classical music world would have been very lonely and insipid , the enjoyment and pleasures of the classical music would have been very less This masterpiece , especially 「 the Great Gate of Kiev 」 is a magnificent Requiem for Mussorgsky's late friend From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵
The best interpretation EVER! Perfect tempo, dynamics, technique, emotions, EVERYTHING! I absolutely love it, and was hoping I could purchase this version on iTunes, but sadly, it's not there. Yulianna Avdeeva did an EXCELLENT job on this piece, as all her others. I'm working on this, and I come here for direction. It works well! lol So thank you, Ms. Avdeeva, thank you.
First heard Yulianna Avdeeva playing the Overture to Tannhauser at a concert in Tokyo. It absolutely left me awestruck. The Liszt arrangement she played is insanely difficult. I wonder at what sacrifices she must have made to acquire such mastery of the Piano. Did she still play with dolls as a little girl? Did she have the usual sleepovers and parties of typical teens? Boyfriends etc.? What was her life like? At any rate, the world has been blessed by her gift and those like her. I feel a deep gratitude for Yulianna Avdeeva and others who attain such excellence. May she and they have a blessed life as they bless others with their talents.
I got that video bookmarked! What a truly mesmerizing performance and what exhaustion she may have felt at the end. There is so much to consider in playing that piece and she meets those extreme demands with such musical brilliance. I wish she would record more than she has...she plays everything so superbly.
Complete pianistic and artistic masterpiece. The charming incident with phone ring shows how free and at home She feels on stage! Marvellous. Music is her life.
Alice Sara Ott, Valentina Lisitsa and Yulianna Avdeeva all three gives exceptional performances of this piece, and I have heard many. I don't know, what is with this piece and women performing it, by the way. Many of the male soloists, who I have heard performing it, makes it sound a bit too dead, in my view, even very good pianists, who I otherwise do love. The three versions of those three great female pianists of our times are by the way very different, but all astonishing in their own right, and quite incredible, that we can listen to these concerts online for free these days.
Eine excellente, ernsthafte Pianistin. Bei allem ist sie in der Lage die vielen verschiedenen Klangfarben hervorzubringen. Es hat mich einfach begeistert, ihr zuzuhören.
Bei allem Respekt, ich weiß wirklich nicht, wo ihr da die innere Ruhe fehlt. ich kenne alles Aufnahmen der großen Pianisten und keiner hat dieses extrem schwere Stück so perfekt und fehlerfrei gespielt, daß ich ihre Interpretation auch für die gelungenste halte, ist natürlich reine Geschmacksache. Ich wüßte nicht, wann eine Interpretation so hervorgestochen ist.
Very pleased to see again Julianna after last Chopin competition ( 2015 ? ) where she got first price. Pictures at an exibition is a piano work very often played, but Julianna interpretation here has drawn my attention from beginning to the end . Bravo and Thank you Julianna !
Just discovered, her, superb playing. I like her personality/character/charisma. She packs a lot of power in a slender body... truly an attractive woman... ;-)
Me gusta mucho tu interpretación de los cuadros. ¡Gracias!. Pienso que así es esta maravillosa obra de Mussorgsky. Es como yo la entiendo. Fantástico ,bravo❤️! La mejor versión que he escuchado
БРАВА! Очень прекрасное исполнение! Я думаю, что вы очень хорошо понимаеие истиное чувство композиторов, которое существует в каждом произвении, и исполняете без преувеличения. Надеюсь когда-то встречаться с вами в Корее в концертном зале. Спасибо!
Since I have heard PaaE many times I thought I would listen to this while working on a task. Performance is so compelling I could not keep my focus on the task.
I find myself scrolling forward to 19'55''. Your playing of this movement in particular is simply stunning! The power, rhythmic excitement and focus is electric! Bravo Yulianna...I've just subscribed!
Richter (1958, Sofia) has been fending off allcomers for years but I think that Yulianna Avdeeva gets as close as anyone. I find her musical in places where others are clangorous or mannered. Bravo!
Uma performance repleta de personalidade!!! Nada de mesmice. Interpretação verdadeira. Colorido fantástico. Sonoridade é andamento exatos fazem dessa versão um referencial na gravação dessa genial obra prima de Mussorgsky. BRAVO!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
My favorite versions of this are all by Horowitz, but this is quite wonderful. The Great Gate at Kiev gets me every time. Also check out Truecrypt's performance. He's the great Russian trained mystery pianist adored by many and for good reason.
ЗдОрово!!! Жалко, что я не была на Вашем концерте... А где ж я была?!! Ну, вот. Наконец -то я нашла исполнение "Картинок" на фортепиано, которое меня вполне устраивает. )) А то у меня только Казухито Ямашита значился (японский гитарист) в качестве неподражаемого исполнителя "Картинок". И Лондонский симфонический оркестр под управлением В. Ашкенази в незапамятные времена (оркестровка В.Ашкенази, как я понимаю) ввел меня в столбняк. А теперь еще и Вы! )) Спасибо большое. Очень рада, что открыла Вас для себя. Пишите в фанаты! ))
This must be the best version of this masterpiece I've ever heard. Bravo! The promenades were delicate and the pictures were beautifully colored on the piano keys. The Gnomus could have a little more forte for my taste, but otherwise it's perfect!
Utterly stupendous...she has it all. A singularly unique talent... bravo
And Hélène Grimaud, I can never decide who is be favourite.
This is truly the ultimate level of pianistic complexity. Yuliana Avdeeva is definitively an "all in one" pianist. Outstanding. What an utterly and memorable performance.Bravo. Bravissimo!
Yulianna created a deeply affecting experience of this great work, making it so easy to be caught up in every moment.of this eloquent human drama. Brava!!
OMG! This is worldclass 27:36 😊 Pure perfection! So clear and powerfull! Thanks a lot!

This performance is so much better than all others in terms of clarity, virtuoso precision, deep musicality and the outstanding touch. In addition this is a live concert that no one has ever been so close to flawless played. 👋👋👋👋👋
the best and cleanest interpretation of this beautiful master piece
The precision of a diamond-cutter. Every stroke delivered with clear intent and care. Truly conveys the feeling of encountering a series of powerful images.
A truly remarkable performance... Yulianna congratulations. God bless you.
Indeed it was! And better in my opinion then Khatia Buniatishvili's......
Simply exquisite!
I have stage “nerves”. I don’t know how you manage to play so perfectly - all the time. You amaze me! Bravo.
31:01 she has such great control of volume, staccato, and pedals, her left-hand thumb touching that D# sounds heavenly. The best performance of this piece I've ever heard.
Heavently is the right expression for this remarkable and for me by far best rendition of this incredible piece of classical music.
Absolutely beautiful. A very intelligent pianist with so much empathy with the composer’s intentions.

This is a joyfull interpretation of Mussorgsky. I prefer this to many known names. Clearest shining star, I’ve heard for years.
The Sound. Good Lord the SOUND. Wow...
And that glorious middle E flat in La grande porte... Clearly one of the best Pictures I've ever heard, live or studio.
I’m always fascinated by the artistry of Yulianna
Great performance. Amazing talent ! Thanks.
A dazzling performance. Absolutely brilliant.

I was lucky to hear her give concerto and chamber music concerts in Pittsburgh in March, right before COVID struck ... it was incredible
You're right. She's one of the best who has ever lived. I don't think anyone has ever played like she does.
@@mbvglider Indeed. he is everything a great pianist should be. I hope I can see all her work.

I can't listen to this music without tears
Божественно! Одно из лучших исполнений! Хотелось бы видеть Юлиану на Дальнем Востоке России ❤
I don't know the words to describe this piece and her performance. I cry every time. The musci envelops me.
I'm glad I found this comment. I thought maybe something's wrong with me.
I'm not a fan of classical music, I listen mostly to rock and classic R'n'B.

So charming as she takes her seat. Calm and collected as she begins this monumental work.
absolutely OUTSTANDING performance!!!! BRAVISSIMO!!
Yulianna is simply the best pianist in the world.
I agree!💜
Robert -- when reaching performance like this you belong to a group where there is no best, or all are best. :)
Please, don't compare the incomparable.
Listen to Richter, Pletnev, Horowitz and Ashkenazy then repeat your statement if you can.
@@urourogyn No fair naming dead people
This is honestly… SO… GOOD………….
This specutacular performance she plays with exquisite skill and breathtaking technique and splendid attire is beyond description , immeasurable , unfathomable , inspirational , graceful and comfortable to the ear and the mind
Without Mussorgsky and his great performer like Yulianna ,
the classical music world would have been very lonely and insipid ,
the enjoyment and pleasures of the classical music would have been very less
This masterpiece , especially 「 the Great Gate of Kiev 」 is a magnificent Requiem for Mussorgsky's late friend
From
Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵
Great!! You moved me to tears...Perfect times; beautiful cantabile, great clarity. Fantastic artist!!
She is AMAZING. 😭 Old Castle 🏯 is 😭... beyond words. Piano sound like a whole orchestra id playing.
Cada vez me gusta más esta pianista ❤ si fidel interpretacion a la partitura y a la idea del compositor¡Bravo! Y me encanta tu traje.

So thank you, Ms. Avdeeva, thank you.
Kissin is far better
@@ciararespect4296 even better by far!!!!! Damm, you are a great expert in piano music. You certainly deserve your money for classical expertise!
@@ciararespect4296 Obviously you adore Kissin and not the composition.
Great! My super idol🥰

Грандиозная пианистка, Совершенство! Думаю,так выглядит идеальное исполнение. Потрясает воображение и душу.
I'm watching from Scotland, she just moves and fascinates me. Truly, a unique and wonderful artist. My regards to you.
Complete pianistic and artistic masterpiece. The charming incident with phone ring shows how free and at home She feels on stage! Marvellous. Music is her life.
I met her at a concert where she played the Greig piano concerto in A minor. It was a great experience!
28:26 Best part!!!! Wonderful!!!! BRAVO!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
When quickly evaluating performance of this particular piece, I usually go to 4:13. It is obvious she is an excellent pianist.
I think this performance is the most beautiful and detailed performance of the pictures at an exhibition. I don't know any more performances.

Elegante y virtuosa, viva por siempre Yulianna, desde Colombia mil gracias por tan hermosa interpretación.
Eine excellente, ernsthafte Pianistin. Bei allem ist sie in der Lage die vielen verschiedenen Klangfarben hervorzubringen. Es hat mich einfach begeistert, ihr zuzuhören.

One of the best performances of this great work of art I've ever listened to--thanks so much!!
She has been building a solid carrer over time. Great technique combined with perfect pedaling rescues Yuliana's interpretation!
Yulianna Avdeeva, she´s one of the great performers on XXI Century! I Love her renditions!
This is really amazing performance! Thanks for sharing!!
Surprised found your TH-cam. I like to hear from you more often, see you soon.
Avdeeva the Amazing. Her physicality is as fascinating & beautiful as her musicality. Love the playfullness at around 15:50.
Dear Yulianna, I must say that your hair always looks so stunning and well made.... Amazing style and playing ❣️ big greeting from Croatia ✨
This is the best version of Pictures I've heard.
Have you listened to Pletnyov though?
@@nicksm7980 Plentyov times. Apologies for the extreme childishness in the midst of such greatness. But I will be sure to take a listen to Pletnyov

A totally new and different, fresh performance after the well known concerts of Ashkenasy or Lazar Bermann. But it’s a Russian thing. Great concert!
Невозможно оторваться.
Great. I want to see more videos like this.
Magnificient performance. Great conception, great execution. Rivals Richter's Sofia performance!!!
