    Dans cette œuvre , il y a une puissance d'entrainement, une force irrésistible, tout à fait caractéristique de Beethoven.
    C'est magnifique.

      Tout à fait.Dans cette oeuvre Beethoven montre son pouvoir musicale énorme.
      Il me faut penser toujours à Rachmaninoffs Pagannini Variationen;"regarde-moi>>>je sais tout composer!"
      Et évidemment on entend déja La Neuvième se rapprocher.❤🎉

    Music from heaven! Brendel’s playing is crystal clear and awe inspiring. I have heard very few pianists that could compare. Thank you for a delightful, joyous concert!

    Brendel's playing is almost always understated which is why I prefer his version of everything, including this. His technique is unassailable. His understated emotional content is for me overpowering!

    As an opera conductor, Levine handles the choral part better than anyone else.

    Thank you so much for sharing this. A mature reading from Alfred here. There is, so often, a lack of clear vision among pianists about how to handle the improvisatory piano introduction.

      Agreed! Read Beethoven himself improvised in the premier.
      Brendel's hierarchy and experience with singers show as well. The accompaniment! So precise!

    There is another TH-cam performance with Martha Argerich and Ozawa, who simply forget all the issues and constraints and play. They could be improvising it into existence. And it works - both as a piece and an occasion, which is what Beethoven wanted.

    • @MrKlemps
      @MrKlemps 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      In the final years of career as his health gave out, Ozawa conducted some excellent performances--on a level that had eluded him throughout his glamorous, jet-setting career. The one you mention is very moving as is his work in rehearsal with a group of student string orchestra players on the slow movement of Beethoven's Op.135.

      @MrKlemps 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      R Serkin's reording with L Bernstein conducting the NYP puts the Brendel / Levine performance in the shade. Worth noting: how positively UNfestive both of them looked afterward. They seemed temperamentally at odds throughout , and only their resolute professionalism got them throughout it.

      Correct. Not sure why no one else is noticing. The piano is a bit of a dog. Lower registers are ponderous. He deserved a better instrument.

    I'm no one to criticize Beethoven, but this one is oddly wooden, desperate, and schematic. Isn't it? Even for Beethoven? Finding a fragment of a tune, cutting it off, romping off in a different direction, endless trills. The piano player is there for sound effects. Sounds like he composed it with a gun to his head. I liked this a lot better fifty years ago when we sang it with more gusto. And more of a sense of humor.
