Gilels and Richter were the two pre-eminent pianists from Soviet Russia during the 1960s and 70s. Gilels was an unfailingly perceptive and wide ranging interpreter, also when it came to Prokofiev, Rachmaninov and Scriabin there was very little to choose between these two great artists. Richter however could be erratic, unpredictable and controversial, yet when everything came together and he was in top form this unique visionary could hold audiences in rapt attention, then there was the extraordinary technical mastery he possessed. This recital by Gilels is one of the truly memorable events from the second half of the last Century.
His sound is really powerful, magic, deep and so brilliant. He was really one of the greatest pianist of his time. It could be said: of all time. Thanks for uploading this marvellous concert
John Renehan Gilels is a mountain as big as the Mount Everest and I’m only a small hill as tall a two story building, but I’ll grow and become as great as him.
@bill Bloggs Hamelin is not even close to Gilels. He is a big technitian but you cant really compare them. Gilels was a better artis that cared for the quallity of his sound like no one else.

Maravilloso pianista! Como muy pocos quedan ya en el mundo. Representativo de una época en extinción, de cuando el arte excelso ocupaba un lugar prepinderante en la humanidad. Felicidades a este gran clásico, esté donde esté, y a su orgullosa descendencia
Я просто им очень горжусь. Очень горжусь, что в России именно в бывшем совецком союзе, а именно по моим корням Украине родился такои замечательный и талантливый пианист..Т я знаю, да жизнь после смерти существует и знаю, что он все это сейчас читает и поэтому пишу лично...Я тобои очень горжусь. В моем поколении нет таких нет. Он герои России и это золотая звезда. Вы для меня герои России.
Amazing playing. Extraordinary control of sound and tonal beauty. I've only heard such playing before in recordings by Hofmann, or possibly Moiseiwitsch. I had tickets to hear Gilles in recital at Carnegie Hall in New York in the mid-1980s, but sadly he passed away suddenly shortly before the date of the concert.
@@MARTIN201199 if we would consider the age of recording, Horowitz is quite likely to be titled 'the greatest' by many people. However, we don't know what was before recording and we don't know what will come in the future. On top of that, at the end of the day art remains a subjective thing and everyone will have to pick their greatest for themselves
darren motise the fact the you say that some pianists have equaled or surpassed Gilels contradicts what you said before. Because if someone surpasses me, that means he is greater. So it’s silly that you say a silly thing.
Over time, I have learned that the pianists and artists who are the most endearing to us are those that effectively convey what They have to say through the music, while honoring the composer's instructions in the score (if any), and the stylistic conventions that existed (if any) during that period (I recognize that this is debatable). Technical bravura and accuracy without any idea of what You want to say through the music is simply insipid.
I’ve never seen such a passion in any other pianist. I love how he pours out his soul over each piece he plays. When you listen his Beethoven’s sonatas you realize that there’s fire in his heart.

Thank you for posting this concert. As a pianist myself I am far more moved by performances from past greats Gilels and Horowitz than the modern perfect technicians.

Have you ever seen an audience in such a state rapt attentiveness? is leads me to ask how much great musicians of Russia owe to such exceptional audiences.
This is Emil's greatest performance and afterwards declined rapidly and fell into obscurity. Any truth to that? Gilles died 8 years after this in 1985 at age 68.
He had at least one heart attack around this time. Probably he was not the same afterwards. I have seen a video of him playing after the heart attack. The playing was beautiful but he looked anguished--- although that may have been the Russian soul

Thank you for posting this concert. As a pianist myself I am far more moved by performances from past greats Gilels and Horowitz than the modern perfect technicians.
@bill Bloggs then check out Trifonov, Abduraimov and Levit. They are modern pianists with good technique, but they all are very musical in their own way. I've listened to countless Rach 2&3 performances and I've found none that I like more than Trifonov's and Abduraimov's tone control is amazing, he might be on par with volodos and that's something. And Levit's Beethoven is so good, everything just sounds right. The big names taking the stage of general public (Lang Lang, yuja Wang and Valentina lisitsa) are unfortunately the most present, but when looking for art, one must be prepared to dig deeper
Concordo che Lang Lang sia buono per il circo, ma Horovitz e Gilels sono molto diversi. Quasi diametralmente. Amando visceralmente Gilels mi è difficile fare altrettanto con Horovitz
Это-счастье,что есть

Вечная память ВЕЛИКОМУ МУЗЫКАНТУ!!!!
Gilels is able to play through the piano and reveal the line as well as the depth in the music. A genius.
was...... he isn´t with us anymore.
he is one of the greatest classical pianists ...... of all the currently heralded artists today, none come close to him

@bill Bloggs Hamelin and Argerich. I prefer both with pretty much all works over Gilels, who I often found too serious and maybe even a little dry.
Simply magnificent musician in the world!!!!!! Truely!!

I consider it one of the best concert recording I've heard. Gilels brought the majesty of Russian work to a whole new level.

The Bach-Siloti prelude in B minor just captivated me, how enchanting and beautiful it is to listen to this magical piece by Gilels' golden sound!

Gilels : what a pianist, what a musician! Probably the greatest one.
Brunepi you are totally mistaken. He in not probably the greatest one. He is undoubtedly the greatest of all.

Gilels details the music while jkeeping the sense of the global architecture. His renditions are very coherent.
