Wow, he's demonstrating a unique level of character and personality before which I'd not seen in previous interviews/discussions. He seems so happy, content and so healthy too!
He suffered from illness that affected his joints in his childhood, got hepatitis at 21, married his piano teacher who was 20 years older than him who died 16 years later. He talked about his wife in one of his other interviews (credit goes to whoever that transcribed it): "She was so demanding. She clothed herself in art. she absorbed it, devoured it. She was so universal. She had everything, class, education, beauty, talent and affection. She outshone everything like a comet. You could never stand still with her, that's true, she was always on the go. Even in death she was still the princess she was born as. She had cancer of the liver. When she died her liver exploded, and in her last kiss she showered me with black blood. I looked like the phantom of the opera. My hair was completely clotted. I didn't want to wash it off. When they condoled us with champagne I was still covered in her blood. But everyone understood. It was like with Jackie Kennedy who didn't want to change the dress that was spattered with her husband's brain. I was happy so early in my life, I knew now I would have to stand on my own two feet. It just took a long time." So yeah his life was quite tragic. He does look pretty optimistic and hopeful now which is a good thing. People became more critical of his new performance styles since he returned from his grieving hiatus but I'd say you have to read more about his life and put yourself in his shoes to understand his performances.
@@Pogouldangeliwitz Interesting opinion. Do you think a requiem should be exciting? Brahms Deutsches Requiem is a monumental composition! And I don't love all that Brahms wrote...
@@SimonStreuffViolinEducation Not necessarily exciting in the Verdi or Berlioz sense - I mean: Fauré's requiem ain't precisely exciting, yet it's great music. But Brahms' requiem has always struck me as monotonous and grey in grey. The pacing almost throughout is neither fast nor slow, harmonically speaking it's quite bland, orchestration is rather on the thick side. However I've recently stumbled upon the London version with four-handed piano. Turns out it works way better (for me) than the version with orchestra.
@Stefan Bernhard No, little puppies love this kind of security. And if you didn't have to eat and pee, they would stay with their master for the rest of their lives. It seems that you have never had a dog and you do not pay attention to the satisfied expression of their eyes.
@@stefanbernhard2710 Tzzzzzzz... hahahaaa... you couldn't answer anything smarter. Well, the man wrote you well. I had a dog for 18 years. Ever since I was a boy I got a little dog ... we grew up together and he was extremely beautiful and intelligent. He had freedom of all kinds, but as soon as I was home he just wanted to be with me and I loved talking to him, cuddling him or running around the meadow and woods. We loved each other very much and everyone could see it. But please be smarter in the future, do not publicly embarrass yourself on topics that are completely unknown to you. Privately believe what you want, but don’t forget that you will encounter resistance when you express yourself publicly about something where you lack real experience. In addition, Pogorelich is a very sensitive, kind and caring man towards both humans and animals. Don’t judge so superficially, because by doing so you reveal your limited and frustrated character.
Ivo has a lovely personality, always totally honest with his feelings and views.
Lovely ....so open and honest...absolutely charming and gentle.

@@user-mf6xm1rp9f thankyou so much, that's so powerful and moving.
@@paulmccarthy8345 No problem! And yes, learning about this does make the pianist all the more intriguing to me.
Love you Ivo❤
Ivo looks like A James Bond Villain so much Charisma holding a dog still something dark about him
The Big Master Ivo🎶👍❣️
Such a thought out and understandable answer to the deserted island question--it makes me rethink my answer...
I remember sawallisch brahms deutsche requiem with so much admiration from 34 years ago that master pogorelich choice touches me lot
Genio 100 volte
погорелиќ гениус браво .не сум имала можност да го слушам порано.брависимо маестро погоралиќ.
These questions sound like the interviewer came from Tiger Beat. Very boring questions for such a brilliant man.
Собачка😄😍
Cute dog.
Bravo..
I was not expecting that German Requiem thing at all!
Me neither, it's such a boring composition. And I love Brahms...
