- This recording has been one of the most memorable Sokolov videos for me. Frustration, despair, reminiscence, nostalgia and triumph all distilled into this concerto. Highlights include the heartwarming moment from 22:23 to 23:00 and, of course, the majestic conclusion (starting from 34:32).
This is a re-upload from my previous channel.

23:58 - III. Allegro scherzando

Superb,really wonderful & very exciting. Thank you so much for pinning this - much appreciated .. will try to share this video now
Лучшее исполнение из всего ,что я слышал!
@@kostyaivanov7036 Для меня лучшее исполнение - это игра самого Сергея Рахманинова!
Thank you for going to the trouble of recording this for us Anson. I really hope Yunchan Lim hears it , if he hasn't already. I can already see some parallels in his hand movements in the large sound areas in the Rach 3, and in his attention to detail as well. Solokov is incredible. The best Rach 2 I've ever heard.
❤
After playing a concerto like this the artist probably needs some time to return to earth ?? Wow
@@mauriciomontoya-pv9lu I don't like milky ways, they burny throat.
Its is the best version i've ever heard. Sublime, magic, tragic, heroic, passionate, powerful
As a pianist who has heard countless recordings of Rach 2 and regularly attends Sokolov's recitals (I consider him the greatest living pianist) I am astonished that it's taken me so long to discover this recording. Undoubtedly the best I have ever heard. Sokolov sounds like his own orchestra, the voice control, colours, and sheer force are truly superhuman.
I envy you the privilege of hearing and seeing Sokolov in person. I hope to find and purchase all his cds. Greatest pianist (actually musician) I have heard and that covers eight decades of concerts and recordings.
Лучше сказать нельзя! ПОДЛИННЫЙ!
The instrument is truly an extension of his soul and we are blessed to hear it's voice .
One question.
WHY are they always Russian ⁉️‼️🤔
I've heard Chinese and American pianists but it's still the Russian names that resonate as the GOAT‼️
Каждое моё утро начинается с этого концерта. Не могу наслушаться❤
This conductor really gets this piece. This group actually plays fortissimo/triple forte whereas all others I've heard barely touch forte.
This performance is totally on a different level from all the rest!! Technically, musically, philosophically, and atmospherically unmatched!!
It is, he is just superb
Agreed. He makes the 2nd an equal partner to the 3rd.
so true
Yes,you are right !! It's on an other level ....!!!!!!!! For me by far the BEST interpretation !!!!!
Of course it's superb, but I wouldn't be so categorical aboul the level. Listen to Richter. (That's beside the fact that I love Sokolov dearly and am personally acquainted with him)
Don't think I have or will ever listen to a more compelling interpretation of Rach 2 than this. Force and grace in equal measure.
I like your summary. Force and grace. Another good one I’ve just come across is the Sultanov performance. I do love Russian pianists!
The best performance of this concerto is Sergei Rachmaninoff's one! You must listen to!
Right, this is historical for that. The best pianist in his best performance.
The conviction of Grigory Sokolov's interpretation is absolute. Great performance.
👌👏👏
Excelente transmite los sentimientos del intérprete con suavidad, con fierza una digitación perfect, con su cuerpo todo. Qué placer escucharlo u verlo.😊❤
It's so powerfull
You will never convince me that the moment starting at 9:30 isn't the most beautiful moment in music history. Immaculate playing.
My younhest son just past away , i am in pain, but when i close my eyes and listen to this i am at peace again. Thank you
I’ve never heard of any world renowned soloist, who would prefer playing with little known conductors, but Grigory Sokolov does it to guard his artistic style and give “unspooled” new talented conductors chances to develop their own ways, refreshing his views of many times played compositions. The winning combination!
Jukka pekka is a well known conductor! At least in europe.
Sokolov is not playing anymore with orchestras, he had troubles with many conducters
Родился Гриша в 1950 году уже после братского визита Еуроппы в СССР оставив 26 млн похоронок Добрые люди! Цивилизация! Сколько гениев тлеют безымянно в полях России Возвращаю вам ваше доброделание Примите с любовью и благодарностью Полную чашу Пейте до дна Не пролейте!

The COLOURS!! Grigory Sokolov is a miracle. Have never before heard the Rach 2 played like this. Could listen to and watch this performance every day for the rest of my life without tiring of it. Thank you very, very much for the upload.
Das Spielen dieses hervorragenden Pianisten ist quasi überirdisch !! Meiner Ansicht nach ist es unübertreffbar !!!
Alles wird bis ins kleinste Detail gespielt ! Wirklich haarsträubend wunderschön !!!!!!!!!! Bravo , bravo, bravo, Maestro SOKOLOV !!!!!!!!!
My God. My emotions are through the roof.
This is hands down, by far, the best Rach 2 ever recorded.
Sokolov's playing is so ethereal. He always brings out colors I never hear anyone play. Just simply breathtaking.
The final few bars with their triplet chords represent the greatest finale in concerto history, and Sokolov devours it.
OMG - Grigory Sokolov's performance is ecstatic - extraordinarily beautiful - unbelievably intense - and his hands are so beautiful to watch...Thank you so much for posting this performance and for introducing me to Grigory Sokolov.
Amazing. It's fun to watch Girgory push the conductor around and making the orchestra submit to his tempo, unbelievable performance
Stunning technically, musically and emotionally. A pure wonder.
Rachmaninoffs second piano concerto is not just technically impressive, but certainly the most beautiful piece ever composed. Words cannot describe the sublime joy and tranquility of the flute passages, nor the utter dispair of the first theme. Rqchmaninoff takes us, the audience through the entire spectrum of human emotion and experience, and he does so constantly reminding us that no matter how terrible and unjust things may become they always have the possibility to get better. This is the piece i will never stop listining to and this is the piece that i will love until i die.
Foolish optimists
Its subsequent use in the film Brief Encounter has made it a constant favourite. When Classic FM combined together the chart positions of the first 15 years of its annual Hall of Fame chart, the work came out on top overall as the nation’s favourite classical work.
Well said 👏
What a beautiful essay. Thank you.
I will accompany you on that journey. Rach. was my fav Composer by far. This Concerto is my very favorite. There is an old movie called, "Dangerous Moonlight." The producers or what have you tried to get Rach. to write the music for it, for which request he declined. So, a different artist was commissioned to write its music in as close a Rach. Style as possible. HE SURELY DID! It's called the "Warsaw Concerto," and the most beautiful thing I have heard outside of this Rach. Concerto. Look on TH-cam for a girl at a baby grand piano beside a big window, wearing high heeled shoes, with long hair. I think her name is Olga. She clearly has the best rendition of that song. If you haven't heard the Concerto, I think you instantly fall in love with it, as did I. Happy listening! 😊
ASCOLTANDO QUESTO CONCERTO HO PERSO LA COGNIZIONE DEL TEMPO E MI SONO IMMERSA COMPLETAMENTE IN QUESTA DIVINA MUSICA....😊😊😊😊😊
OGNI GIORNO DELLA MIA VITA L'ASCOLTO...E OGNI VOLTA È UN SOGNO..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💜
This powerful, brilliant interpretation of Rach 2 from Grigory Sokolov is haunting me for weeks,very beautiful,unique brave and powerful indeed.listening this currently during my PhD defense preparation
I hope you did well.
I feel in my opinion the best interpretation of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No 2 in Cminor I have ever heard. Thankyou for the upload. Grigory Sokolov is an amazing pianist!
I agree, also zimermans
Послушайте Алексея Султанова.
BEYOND BRILLIANT ! Electrifying , with so much power and grace … one of the most amazing performances ever given for this concerto . He is an AMAZING gift to the world 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!!!

No matter what Sokolov plays, he always manages to draw your ear to something new that your never heard before. Masterful.
🤲👌👏👏
Поистине Великая Музыка С. В. Рахманинова в руках и голове великих музыкантов- исполнителей. Благодарю.

Гениальный пианист, душа музыки
Piano keystroke solid as a rock, yet agile and airy. Extraordinary and unique sound!
Yes, a lot of people mention his interpretation passionate and I'm not saying they're wrong but when I hear this recording or any other of his interpretations the first thing that comes to my mind is solidity, absoluteness like there is no search, no ambiguity whatsoever.
It doesn't even sound like Rachmaninov tbh. Yet it is amazing.
@@denizgoktas116 Yes, he is truly sovereign. He doesn't care much about others. But that's probably its strength. He can afford it today.
@@denizgoktas116
Absolutely spot on
Entirely agree
Thank you for putting words on it so well
🕯🙏🏼
@Honza Prusa : Yes, you’ve said it exactly. I couldn’t find the right words. Thank you.
He is incredible
I have never seen such a beautifully passionate and forceful interpretation of the Rach 2. Really outstanding recording. Thank you for posting.
I agree. A very unique interpretation indeed
I have. Both Lang Lang's and Martha Argerich are both outstanding interpreters of Rachmaninov. But I agree, he is playing this piece god-like
I wish we could see more pianists like him. Not afraid to pound the hell out of the keys, showing a bit of personality when the music calls for it. Nowadays so many modern pianists play weakly under the guise of accuracy and convention.
p'
@@herobrine1847 absolutely agreed!!
Just when I think I have heard all the brilliant recordings of this Rach masterpiece I hear this! Absolutely marvellous!!
Музыка Рахманинова бесподобна 🙏 Это душа нараспашку ❤❤❤❤ Любовь, слёзы, полёт 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Соколов гениальный пианист!!! Оркестр подстать ему 👌🏽🎵
quanta umanità in questo pianista, una delle migliori esecuzioni di questo meraviglioso concerto!
His intro of the first movement is something else. And his presence + the camera angle adds so much to it
Боже! Когда я слушаю Рахманинова я буквально таю и душа моя расцветает политая слехами счастья. Григорий Соколов пленил меня своей божественной неподражаемой игрой .Благодарю ! Благодарю!

I am not a pianist, however, the rendition of Grigory Sokolov's interpretation is absolutely great. He plays with such an emotional and passionate stile. It is just wonderful!
@@dejuren1367lol

~ That a human being can memorize all that, leave alone all the expression required is genius at it's highest plateau on earth, save only for the composer himself ~
Breathtaking performance, I am speechless. Thank you.
How powerful and impressive his interpretation is!
Готова отдать душу за эту непостижимую красоту .Чувства и эмоции переполняют душу и слёзы сами льются , не ведпя того.❤❤❤
Как же вы будете воспринимать красоту, если отдадите душу?
Уровень- БОГ....Как хорошо , что я могла услышать это выступление.... Невероятно талантливый исполнитель....
Extraordinary version ever. Merci beaucoup from Paris France 👍 👍 👍.
Such mastery. Brings tears of the deepest emotion.
Можно слушать бесконечно и многократно. Чудо!
this interpretation is something special. Its different than Richter`s one, but it has internal beauty, poetry
The level of beauty and mastery of this concert is unparalleled. A russian played by another russian star GS. And we have to.mention the orchestra and its conductor they were just out of this world
Bravooo!!! Thanks to AY for this unforgetable gem
Yes! The Orchestra was fantastic too! Bravo!
Uno spettacolo paradisiaco! Lo adoro! ❤️
Мое счастье,раз в год Григорий Соколов в апреле-месяце рождения,выступал в филармонии СПб..отдавал дань городу,в котором родился и каждый раз это была встреча с вечным🌠
That sounds very nice 👍👍
Браво пианист Соколов! Браво

Thank you God for so many beautiful things.
Thank you Grgori Sokolov and Jukka-Pekka Saraste !!

I have never heard another performance of this particular piece that quiet equals this Artists interpretation! What a pleasure to listen to him AND this Orchestra! Hats off to a very fine orchestral performance!!
Wonderful performance-Rachmaninov is divine!
Мощнейшее, серьезное прочтение музыкального текста Второго концерта С.В. Рахманинова. Потрясающе. Браво!
Quel jeu subtil de cet extraordinaire pianiste ! Epoustouflant !! Les moindres détails sont mis en relief !! Quoique simple mélomane, je pense pouvoir affirmer que cette interprétation -là est pratiquement indépassable !!!! D'une beauté quasi surnaturelle .... Un immense bravo à vous, Monsieur SOKOLOV !!!!!!!!!!!! Vous êtes un génie musical !!!!!!!!
Sokolov ´s total mastery of the piano is awesome ,as if it were part of his body, is awesome.
Magnificent performance of this concerto BEYOND WORDS ! Thank you very much for this posting.❤
Sheer bliss.
What an absolute mammoth performance. Incredible.
Especially 6:45
Выдающийся пианист!Какая отточенная техника!Полное совершенство!
Очень певуче или мягко, очень красиво! Завораживает и поглощает.
One way to describe this is Masterful... The way the Orchesta and Grigory balance the melody is perfect. You can hear the tenacity of the performers as clear as day.
What a magnificient perfomance of Rach 2 by Sokolov! I have never seen anything like this! I am totally in awe! The man is legendary!
Thank you, Anson Yeung. For me, this is the best performance, musically, emotionally and technically, I have ever heard. Very grateful that you shared it.
L😮
I've listened to all the other interpretations I can find but this is the real deal. Grigory reads the mind of the composer so well and puts his soul into
each note and seems to be leading the orchestra.
Браво! Лучший комментарий!
Interprétation flamboyante d'un très grand artiste ! Oeuvre superbe ...
Quelle œuvre…
Goosebumps from the first note, shivers up and down my spine, imagine had I actually been there! What a performance. Thank you Grigory!
Удивительное время, сохраняющие такие шедевры исполнения. Браво, Маэстро! 🎉🎉🎉
Quelle merveilleuse interprétation remplie d’émotions sublimes !
A rare video like this should be appreciated! thank you so much for making this masterpiece available, I love sokolov!
Я всегда считал, что этот концерт для симфонического оркестра и ф-но, однако Сколов показал обратное! Великий исполнитель!
Gänsehaut ❗️kann ich nur unterstreichen
If anyone needed to support the superiority of a live performance over a studio recording, this would be it.
I think this is the most passionately emotional performance of this I've ever seen - Wonderful! Thank you!
Рахманинов очень тонкий художник, а в лице исполнителя Георгия Соколова и, интересный, спасибо!
The whole orchestra sounds almost like a choir at 35:15
I haven't even listened to the whole video, but I need to revisit famous romantic works again.
Just from the tiny excerpts I heard, this performance is stunning.
Бессмертная музыка! Великолепное исполнение! Вся душа перевернулась... спасибо
A beautiful rendition of this amazing composition that I could listen to all day long! Possibly one of the best recordings I have ever heard!
One of the best composition ever conceived, for sure.

Mesmerizing… from the very beginning to the end.❤
Unsurpassed Masterpiece 💯💯🌀🌀💫💫
Such a unique master. My favourite pianist. His style and authenticity without equal. Wonderful. And the odd bum note demonstrates that he plays on the dangerous, unrestrained edge of his ability; without fear: liberated

Мощнейший. Талант. И. Огромный. Труд. Творят. Чудеса
Nach den Einleitungs-Arpeggiandos, zu Beginn, mit dieser Intensität gespielt,
wären andere Pianisten schon erledigt, nicht so Sokolov. Bravo!
Какая гармония между солистом и оркестром!!! Слушаю не первый раз. Первый раз, когда узнала этого пианиста, прослушав его целый вечер, на утро проснулась, а в уме звучит эта музыка. Слава Богу, что в моё время ещё есть такие пианисты.

That’s precisely the word:
« nobility » of expression
Partnered with the utmost humility before a timeless masterpiece
Entirely agree that the close relationship with the orchestra is outstanding - and that the conductor is exceptional also
All listening, seamlessly lyrical
Such a beautiful meeting between dedicated unified great musicians
Deeply moving
(Like the conductor Celibidache, Sokolov shares the principle of unique live events captured on the wing in this fleeting way rather than fixed interpretations solemnly set in stone in recording studios.
The ephemeral essence of live performance.)
Most soulful delivery of this piece I have ever heard.
From now on I can’t listen to a different one anymore ~
Vous avez tout à fait raison ! Une interprétation d'une extraordinaire finesse , avec le souci du moindre détail !!
Un immense pianiste , Un Rach 2 difficilement surpassable !!!!!! Bravo, M. SOKOLOV !!!!!!!
One wayward thought comes into my mind ..some times get compassionate concern for the exhaustion & stress and pleasure Steinway & sons feel after a Sokolov performance or practice.
This man is brilliant. Best interpretation I have ever heard. Magnificent
I have an original expression “some people are touched and others are retouched.” This man is so totally immersed in the music that he becomes a part of the musical “space time continuum.” I have loved this concerto since first hearing it in the mid seventies. If “What is from the heart goes straight to the heart”, this pianist by his radiant interpretation knits together the hearts of every music lover into a cosmic mosaic that rushes over the cusp of that Angels waterfall that, if I am not mistaken, is located somewhere in the African motherland. It is simply a rare occasion when I am moved so profoundly by a performance of this well worn masterpiece. I perceive Rachmaninov himself would be moved to tears by such ardent warmth and consummate beauty of power and expression. I listened to this rendition last night and am sure to return again and again. Thank you indeed Mr. Sokolov! PWG
I hope you, saying "this well worn masterpiece", mean in a good way!
@@olgaolivia3687 I trust you will take it in the context of the entire observation. Peace. PWG

Just magnificent!
Bravo! Mr. Gregori your such a awesome pianist . We are proud for having such a great pianist in our generation.
Thank you very much for this marvellous recording-still viable after all this time. Was interested in the LH in the intro, haven't heard any other pianist add it, but it made so much sense. His occasional ad libs expanded this so well. What a great pianist. Watching his hands at work was incredible.
