Every time this competition is held comments are made about this very low-key method of announcing the prizewinners. In this case many of the competitors didn't even understand what was being said. It seems to be more like a school talent quest rather one of the world's most prestigious piano competitions.
It's tradition, the last part is always a kind of a spontaneous mess, and informal:) They always stand on the stairs, and it's simple and not a big do:) That comes the day after, the gala concert featuring the winners. It may seem strange, but it's been like this for years:) Also, they couldn't just use the concert hall for the announcement, because it's never certain when the results will come in, so there are no tickets sold to this part of the competition. Announcing the results in an almost empty (even including the media) philharmonic hall would look ridiculous:)
It's great that people maintain tradition in some places. Otherwise, the candidates might as well compete via TikTok, and receive the results via WhatsApp... in their bathroom.
Guys, it was 2a.m. then. A beautiful official prize ceremony followed the next day. In English. For what it’s worth, pianists are used to checking a sheet of paper thumb-tacked to a board to see competition results.
Bruce is hiding behind the other pianists, we can barely see you, I didn't even know you were there until Sorita tried to shake your hand. Congrats on the win!
I was very impressed to see the contestants praising each other. I met many wonderful pianists throughout the competition. Chopin would take pride in you guys!!
Damn hearing that announcement gives me excrutiating pain, my god... Congratulations to Bruce though, loved his playing and I hope to hear him live one day!
Wow for such a presigious event as this is, this was shambolic, a complete mess, some of the competitors did not even know they had won and for what (Sorita). it needs a proper place for the occasion. Shocking.
The translator was there, he stopped translating when the announcer started speaking also in English. the announcer should keep only Polish. And Sorita is studying (and will study for 1-2 years more) in Warsaw, should start a course of Polish 😋
WIELKA TRÓJKO-Bruce Liu,Aimi Kobayashi,Eva Gevorgyan-Wasza natchniona gra, to wielki dar dla nas -widzów i słuchaczy.Dzięki Wam przeżyliśmy piękne,niezapomniane chwile,pełne wzruszeń,zadumy a także eksplozji radości i żaru bijącego z fortepianu.Wasze kreacje będą niezapomniane i długo pozostaną w naszych sercach.Swoją grą oczarujecie jeszcze nie jeden raz wielkie sale pełne publiczności.I życzę Wam, aby na Waszych twarzach był zawsze taki ogrom miłości do muzyki ,jak na Konkursie Chopinowskim.Dziękujemy!💐👏☀️
Considering they spent the entire competition announcing everything in Polish and English, why couldn't this have extended to the most important announcement of all--the final results?
Everything was clear in a minute. The translator was there (guy with glasses). And no: English is not the language of the world. Please stop complaining like children
@@umegghju But Sorita and Kobayashi literally said in an interview back in Japan they thought the announcement would be a big moment, but they were just lost during the announcement, since it’s in polish only and was done very fast. Maybe at least bring in a screen to show that result with the announcement or something?
Uwierzyłem w mądrość Jury po przyznaniu I nagrod - bez wątpliwości. Gratulacje dla Bruce'a, który zaprezentował niesamowitą wirtuozerię i wrażliwość artystyczną. W przypadku gry Hao Rao - jak dla mnie za niska ocena, powinien być w I piątce. Świetny pianista, czekam na Jego koncerty w Polsce.
They hold the official awards ceremony and winner's concert the following day. It was 2am, I'm sure the pianists were exhausted and just wanted to know the results so they could go to bed.
@@longinaprzybyszewska1972 I don't care about it, they caused a lot of confusion among the contestants and the person announcing in Polish could have let the translator do their job. I get it's their tradition but if they hire a translator it's embarrassing that he's just standing there not able to do his job.
@@olasokalska1473 I am sorry but I really do not understand embarrassment- they we’re talking to huge polish audience The contestants seemed not confused - just exited and happy. Maybe it is not worth further discussion but it irritates me that polish again did something ashamed. The final gala was not send live and it was fine with polish first then translation.
Это, странно, об'явлть победителей в каком то прдбаннике, а не на большой сцене, только на польском. Так, что видно многие и не поняли, что они завоевали. А уж мы, слушатель и вовсе.
Google Translate: Это уже традиция, что объявление результатов всегда спонтанно (мы, поляки, очень любим спонтанность) и в некоторой степени неформально а жюри всегда стоит на ступеньках.Также следует учитывать, что объявление результатов всегда происходит очень поздно, на этот раз это была уже глубокая ночь. Так что если вам, русским, это не нравится, пожалуйста, не смотрите.
@@KasiaB вы объяснили, спасибо. А язвить-то зачем? Я не русская, но ваше презрение к русским вас не красит и не имеет ничего общего с этим большим событием. Я очень люблю Польшу и особенно поляков, и как принято отвечать на негативное здесь, в штатах-I love you too.
@@xdaniels6665 Спасибо за ваш ответ! Что ж, похоже, во всем виновата история ;) Если говорить более лично, то, что меня раздражает в Интернете во время конкурса Шопена, так это то, что это прекрасное мероприятие (для нас, поляков, это как национальный праздник!) часто становится для иностранцев возможностью критиковать всё, что является польским. Вчера, например, я наткнулас на крайне ненавистный комментарий на русском языке, отсюда и моя слегка озорная реакция сегодня. Все иногда расстраиваются, поэтому, пожалуйста, не принимайте это слишком близко к сердцу. С тёплым приветом из Варшавы :)
@@KasiaB не обращайте внимания, это было грандиозное событие, битва монстров. Я очень огорчилась, что не прошёл Хайато, так хотелось услышать Шопена в его интерпретации..Может в следующий раз.Будьте здоровы, спасибо прекрасной Польше!
This is just embarrassing. As a Pole i was a bit cringing. How can we ignore the multicultural character of this competition and announce the results in polish with bad pronunciation without help of this translator guy. This is one of the biggest musical events and the confusion among participants makes organization look just ridiculous! I hope the reason to speak polish is not 'we are in Poland and Chopin was polish' agenda but more like the Chef of Everything doesn't speak english good enough. Maybr next time this important moment will not look like school corridor announcement.
This competition is held once every 5 years and I am sure they can easily find an interpreter for announcing the results in English, which lasted only a few moments.
"Because this is an international community, please use English" Chopin Institute kept saying in the chat, and we freaking used English. And what about this? What the hell about this???
The translator is there, the guy with glasses. We saw him for 3 weeks, still didn't recognize? Email him and not the Chopin Instytut. Btw i understood everything. The announcer clearly said "ex aequo/with". Maybe you should pay more attention. Ps learning other languages than english is also useful
Nie wiem czym do końca się kierowało jury w ocenie finalistów ,ale dziwię się że np. Kamil Pacholec i Hao Rao którzy zagrali te koncerty fortepianowe e-moll op.11 na prawdę świetnie , zostali ocenieni niżej niż pozostali tu wymienieni...
A wg mnie wcale nie wymiekl, zagral swietnie, a dlaczego garcia garcia dostal sie do 3etapu jak w drugim etapie zagral poloneza heroicznego jak rzeznik!jury musialo spac wtedy...
@@lucycrown212 Yes, my point is that everybody was talking about Bruce, Sorita, Sumino, Aimi, Eva while Gadjiev (as well as Armellini who finished 5th) received very little attention. I'm so happy about the results, I hope this will inspire more people in Italy to study the piano. This is an historical achievement for Italy in the Chopin competition!
The reason he hasn't been much mentioned is that he simply didn't live up to expectation at the finals. Personally, I find it very odd that he took the 2nd prize anyway even with that butchered concerto--as if performance at the finals didn't matter after all.
@@danjo7856 Gadjiev certainly made some clunkers in that concerto--no doubt, but what's worse, missing the boat lyrically as Bruce did in that second movement or ---hitting a few wrong notes but your interpretation is illuminating and jaw-droppingly beautiful. Gadjiev was brilliant in all the other stages of the competition to make the concerto less of an issue. Bruce has fabulous qualities, but I think it's harder to play slow passages well.
@@bettyjanesurabian8237 I absolutely agree .No one will get a first place in any competition after starting the concerto with a major text slip .UNBELIVABLE ...
Besides this poorly handled announcement, I also get frustrated that Chopin competition arranged many video clips and live interview sections and tried to curate fruitful content but they didn’t have a translator around to assist the pianists who don’t speak English. It’s so unthoughtful to assume everyone can speak English.
Exactly! For an event so popular in the Far East, there's really no excuse for not having a few interpreters. Nobody should have to rely on the help of a fellow competitor to understand and answer questions (as some of the finalists unfortunately had).
@Diana Tuova so fucking true. When i was watching the interview, it was painful. The interviewers cant even keep up the pace, they are literally all over the place and let the participants talk whatever. Hao Rao was also skipped a few times, and Bruce, wtf the winner, had to translate his questions. Where is a fucking translator? jesis christ. not everyone can speak English. A disgrace to chopin, to the competitors. They are also tired in the interview too. give them a break?
It is only right and fair to add that obviously apart from this abysmal ending proceedure, the Institute have done everything else brilliantly. It's just bizarre that they could get this soo wrong!
It is kind if crude to line up all the contestants there. The ones who didn’t make it had to keep a brave face while the winners grinned from ear to ear. Poor Hao Rao standing there haplessly. Shouldn’t it be a more human way to announce the results? After all this is more than Miss America beauty contest?
Ja rozumiem ze pozna godzina ale organizatorzy powinni bardziej zwrocic uwage na ten wazny moment aby nie doproawadzac do takiego zamieszania. Tego tez wymaga szacunek dla uczestnikow zmagan. Wystarczy powiedzc po polsku "np "drugie miejsce zajmuje" i odrazu przetlumaczyc po angielsku przed poznaniem nazwiska lub nazwisk
What a poor ending to such an incredible competition of international interest. It was like presenting the prizes on the run. Every local, third class competition, in music, sports or what ever, presents the prizes with more heart, passion, appreciation and honoring of the participants and more festiv. What an embarrassing appearance by the jury, which claims to judge passionate piano playing and presents itself so completely dispassionately - it's a shame!
It's tradition, it has been done this way forever:) On the stairs, with bad English, if any, messy, spontaneous, late at night. And you don't mess with tradition:) For glamour, pomp&circumstance check out the winners' gala concerts, they start tonight:)
@@frederickfrederikfre there is nothing to be changed. It was 2 a.m.!!!!! It is a perfect tradition, gala is later. Let them rest a little bit. It was always a little bit bigger and spontaneous but now covid etc you know
I am surprised that certain jurors with students participating in this competition were allowed to judge. Even though they are not allowed to vote their own students, there is still the possibility of manipulation in all sorts of ways - CONFLICT OF INTEREST is apparent and I am just thinking about UNBIAS and FAIRNESS to ALL competitors. They should have recused themselves as jurors for this competition.
I thought about this too. Yes, definitely conflict of interest exists, even though they are not allowed to vote their students. There is always smart ways to manipulate ... once conflict of interest is allowed.
I absolutely agree with you. I think there are too many jurors. Jurors whose students are competitors besides, should not be in the panel at all…..regarding languages, they should have 2 interpreters( that is easy).. Take care.
Кёхей Сорита очень болела за тебя! Вдохновенное исполнение передавалось всему миру! Ты очень чувствуешь родные интонации Фридерика Шопена! Восторг! 💐💐💐👏👏👏
Me alegra muchísimo,a pesar de las respuestas de otras personas tener la posiblidad. De ver por TH-cam un concurso de ese nivel,y los que. Somos amantes del piano de poder verlo y sentir que en esta era tan tecnológica,la magia de la música de Chopin todavía sigue exaltando corazones de jubiló!!! Al ganador ,muchas felicitaciones,después de escuchar a algunos ya sabía que Hiba a ser el ganador.Soy de Uruguay y hace muchos años que no veía una competencia de esa envergadura.Felicitaciones. Y adelante para Xiau Lu!!!!
Люди, напишите пожалуйста, кто какие места занял и какие премии получил. Это такое неуважение, об'явлть победителей на лесенке, стоя бочком, не в торжественной обстановке в зале.при слушателях,и только на польском! Все впечатление испортили!

@@mariakossakowska-maras7457 Thanks for the work done. Everything clearer now. The best Polish is from Hayato Sumino, out of the final. My humble opinion.
Jak mozna powiedziec wszystkie wyniki i nagrody specjalne po polsku???????? Nikt nie wiedzial, ktore ma miejsce, czy wskoczyl na podium czy nie, mogl zgadywac nagrody specjalne po usyszeniu slowa Mazurka i strzelac, ze to on dostal. Sorita zaczal sie cieszyc, bo myslal, ze to on wygral, ale kolega wytlumaczyl mu, ze zostal wyczytany po Gadjevie ktory zdobyl drugie miejsce jako ktos ex aequo a nie jako kolejne miejsce czyli pierwsze.... masakra... Caly konkurs peefekcyjny i taki zonk na koniec
What happened the the modern Latin (English) for the international community? I don't mind the informal setting, but if they are going to announce the results then they should at least have English interpretation after each sentence. I mean there was that man standing next to the Director of the Competition and he did translate a little bit in the beginning about 8 awards and JJ won something, but he then kind of quit translating after that. It's very confusing to hear the names but not sure exactly what prize they have won because it was all spoken in Polish. It took me a while to figure out that Sorita and Gajiev shared the second prize. And I totally missed the fourth prize was shared between Aimi and Jakub. The only thing I was kind of sure was Bruce appeared to have won first prize and that JJ to my happy surprise won something probably the sixth prize. I meant it's not just the people around the world watching who were confused by the announcement in Polish, Sorita looked like he wasn't sure either when his name was called and had to double check with Jakub Kuzlik. Well, it was memorable that's for sure 😂😂
Plus we were forced to wait 3 hours for this entirely "shitty" announcement. I'm resentful of my time being wasted in such a manner. Maybe all the jokes about Pols are correct.
C'est quoi cette remise de prix dans un couloir, uniquement en anglais/polonais pour les 3 premiers ?! Quel manque de respect pour ces candidats qui ont tout donné.
I think the fuss over English in the chat was because they wanted to stress the international character of the competition and make sure most people could understand. However, when announcing the winners, they wanted to stress the importance of Chopin’s polish side. Whether we like it or not, everyone feels quite rightly proud of their own language and nationality, in my view.
I - Bruce Liu (Canada) II ex-aequo: Aleksander Gadjiev (Italy/Slovenia) i Kyohei Sorita (Japan) III : Martin Garcia Garcia (Spain) IV : ex-aequo Aimi Kobayashi (Japan) i Jakub Kuszlik (Poland) V : Leonora Armellini (Italy) VI : JJ Jun Li Bui (Canada) plus special prize: Jakub Kuszlik (Poland) best performance mazurkas, founded by Polish Radio.

Does anyone konw the name of the documentary made many years ago about brilliant young Classical Music soloists who couldn't handle the pressure of competitions and performing onstage and who chose not to pursue the life of a performer?
Never seen such disorganized, unprofessional way of announcing the winners, embarrassing. Announced in Polish only, the foreigners had no idea. A, what seemed like a well organized competition, ended with a big “thud”. Embarrassing!!
EXACTLY. Some of the winners didn't understand the language and weren't sure whether they won?! LOL Sorita heard his name but didn't understand why?! He mesmerized until someone told him he won something! LOL!!!
Compare this to the 2015 announcement where they would say “second place and silver medal goes to..” in polish then in English, all in order from 6th to 1st. I guess that made too much sense to do this time

Congratulations to those who participated in this Theatrical show. We see that once more, Mr. DANG's Student is the winneer... much like last time in 2015 when his 3 (YES THREE) students were the winners... No conflict of interest there... So now that we all see with our EYE and hear with our EARS that this is not a competition at all, but simply a spring board theater for Mr. Dang's Students, I would like to assure all the participants that there is no shame in being eliminated nor any real value to the trophy... You have all been Wonderful and GREAT pianists, and WE THE AUDIENCE KNOW what we now know... That being said, the winner, although a student of "Mr. Dang and co.", Is also a very Great Pianist indeed and I congratulate him personally for his performance which was in fact Outstanding and yes I do admit that he is very deserving of the prize nonetheless. But that is not to say that all the others were NOT !! Several were ABSOLUTELY deserving of th same. If Mr. Dang wants us to believe his students are actually the real winners of a competition, I suggest he refrain from being a judge in this and any competition. His influence within the Chopin Institute itself is much too great for us to exonerate him from rigging the outcomee to his advantage. His students are Very Good, and if they can win, they will win without him being in among the judges. I am not accusing anyone here, but the situation is SHOUTING out loud that such a biased rigging is taking place simply by these facts alone! If you were a participant in the competition and you did not make the finals, think nothing of it... you did not LOSE anything... and you are still a GREAT PIANIST!!! I asure you of this! Much Love to you all and thankyou to all of you wonderful Pianists who gave us of yourselves so generously! May the Gods Bless each and every one of you,
@@nadia4985 AGREED! You are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!! This is a complete insult to everyone! Judges who are also the teachers of participating students!! ....If that isn't a conflict of interest, Then I don't know what is?
@@richarddeschenes739 Before launching your ridiculous accusations, take a moment to read the regulations of the competition: A jury member is required to declare if a participant is his/her student and, moreover, is not allowed to vote for him. In the end, points are attributed to participants by ALL jury members, and the participant who wins is the one who has accumulated the most points.
@@Nickauboutte .... For your information purple Ham,...(ie: Jambon Mauve) I know and Knew all about the rules and you are the ridiculous one in the room because you have no idea what goes on behind the scenes in these competitions... But I know fully well what goes on... so hold your inocent tongue please, because you speak in ignorance of the matters beyond the public's eyes! You have alot to learrn dear one... I am old enough to be your grandfather... so don't come telling me I'm wrong... because I am NOT! You will gain experienc with life in the industry... we all begin in ignorance of these things untill they hit us in the face at some point, and thereafter, we Know how the damn thing works...! You have no Idea how far down this rabbit hole goes... believe me, it's surprising.
@@richarddeschenes739 Why, you do indeed come across as a know-it-all. :) Yes, lots of covert stuff goes on in events like this. But just because your favorite participant didn’t win is no reason to throw accusations of cheating. Do you have any evidence in support of your accusations? If not, your behavior is nothing more than dishonorable blabber-mouthing. You think someone else deserved first prize? Well, get on the jury next time and vote on it. I don’t know how much you know about pianism (incidentally, I’ve been playing the piano since 1965 - you must be a ninety-something then, Grandpa), but the official results are perfectly credible given the performance of the various participants. The general level of the competition was unusually high this time and just because someone played well enough to win last time doesn’t necessarily mean he/she was the one to get the highest number of points this time around. While the competition does not form the essence of my existence, I happen to live in Warsaw, I know some of the people involved (incidentally, my personal favorite, Ms Kobayashi, didn’t win First Prize either) and I do follow the event closely every 5 years.

How such event can finish like this? On the stairs of basement , half of the finalists are in pajamas🤔, without proper English translation? Anyway, congratulations to the winners👏👏👏💐
To chyba byla 2 w nocy. Lepiej oglosic w holu i zrobic sztuczny tlum niz na wielkiej sali. Mogli poprosic tlumacza albo od razu oglosic wyniki po angielsku, bo widac bylo, ze uczestnicy nie rozumieja kto wygral
Hao Rao should’ve been at least one of the top three. I can accept the top two winners (the Canadian and the Japanese) and also Aimi but I can’t get over the fact Hao ended up with nothing at all.
@@remido3722 I agree, he was consistantly at such a high level, even in the preliminaries. I actually don't like the fact that only a few don't get awards. Seems like the awards should be limited to no more than top third of finalists.
@@cicir423 yes, I think what you suggest would be fairer…. I think they should have given them all a certificate to congratulate them on getting to the finals. Then top 3 prizes…
It seems that, The 2 REAL winners were probably PARKED together in 4th place to advantage Mr. DANG and his PERSONAL decision of who would win! I even wonder if they seperated the bouquet of flowers between the 2 REAL winners... parked in 4th place!! what an insult to the Music Industry and the many talents who were left behind! In fact, I believe that if Fryderyk Chopin himself would have participated in this DANG Competito-theater, he would not havee made the finals because he would have been too much of a threat to DANG's choices of winners.... And I don't even think that saying this is sarcasm... but pure 100% truth!
You do realize the scores are up on the internet, and Dang Thai Son scored contestants quite similarly to his peers. Even if he were to discriminate the contestants that are not his students, it would not work because there are many jury members in total and his opinion would inevitably be diluted. I also believe that Dang Thai Son has good intentions personally. He fairly scored other contestants, and he gives off a generally genuine vibe in his interviews.
@@DavidLee-ik8dd That may be your opinion, as for several others who do not have access to the insider realm as well, however Dang used his influence; (him being verry connected to and with the competition administration), along with several other judges who had a stake in the outcome, to flip the scores and cause the selection of winners according to their rigging. The perception you pointedly have of his innocence in the matter is precisely what gives him the advantage of "credibility". There's a much deeper and obscure reality lurking under the surface. If we liken this to criminality, it is easier to comprehend... In high level Financial crime, all players will swear to their legitimacy because they are Gaining from the fraud. The losers are the victims and the fraudsters walk away with the prize (unsuspected of the crime). They always have a hidden truth unknown to the public. We see this among politicians who get into politics and become multi millionaires after just a few years through insider tading... which is a crime, but they walk away free of any accountability because their successive replacements do the same crimes and hold the power to continue supressing and hiding the truth. It's all based on the investments of MONEY... NEVER True justice.

Pianamente ragione.
They way they handled this presentation of the winner was like a bad Polish joke. Very unprofessional.
Guys, it was 2a.m. then. A beautiful official prize ceremony followed the next day. In English.
For what it’s worth, pianists are used to checking a sheet of paper thumb-tacked to a board to see competition results.
Why the list of winners was announced in Polish?!! The participants had no idea what was happening....
Because it was in Poland so naturally they speak Polish. if you go to France they speak French etc...
Bruce is hiding behind the other pianists, we can barely see you, I didn't even know you were there until Sorita tried to shake your hand. Congrats on the win!
Bruce seems to be a very low key person...
Bruce is taller than I thought. Since Aimi is about 5’1”, Bruce looks 10” taller than her..
Yes, very unpretentious!
He's an unassuming fellow. Gracious and humble. We Canadians are so proud!
I was very impressed to see the contestants praising each other. I met many wonderful pianists throughout the competition.
Chopin would take pride in you guys!!
The human part should in fact prevail over all the rest.
First humans, then Artists and competitors.
Damn hearing that announcement gives me excrutiating pain, my god...
Congratulations to Bruce though, loved his playing and I hope to hear him live one day!
Wow for such a presigious event as this is, this was shambolic, a complete mess, some of the competitors did not even know they had won and for what (Sorita). it needs a proper place for the occasion. Shocking.

Why on earth don’t they announce the winners on stage of the concert hall?!?
They hold the official awards ceremony and winner's concert the following day. It was 2am, I'm sure the pianists were exhausted and just wanted to know the results so they could go to bed.
Ridiculous way to announce winners in such a prestigious contest, shame!
You are right!. They should make a few improvements regarding the announcements and number of jurors.

Maybe it is not worth further discussion but it irritates me that polish again did something ashamed. The final gala was not send live and it was fine with polish first then translation.
They are rivals to each other, but before that they were companions who walked the piano path.
Это, странно, об'явлть победителей в каком то прдбаннике, а не на большой сцене, только на польском. Так, что видно многие и не поняли, что они завоевали. А уж мы, слушатель и вовсе.
Я тоже не поняла…какова причина, ведь есть порядок и традиция.
Google Translate: Это уже традиция, что объявление результатов всегда спонтанно (мы, поляки, очень любим спонтанность) и в некоторой степени неформально а жюри всегда стоит на ступеньках.Также следует учитывать, что объявление результатов всегда происходит очень поздно, на этот раз это была уже глубокая ночь. Так что если вам, русским, это не нравится, пожалуйста, не смотрите.
@@KasiaB вы объяснили, спасибо. А язвить-то зачем? Я не русская, но ваше презрение к русским вас не красит и не имеет ничего общего с этим большим событием. Я очень люблю Польшу и особенно поляков, и как принято отвечать на негативное здесь, в штатах-I love you too.
@@xdaniels6665 Спасибо за ваш ответ! Что ж, похоже, во всем виновата история ;) Если говорить более лично, то, что меня раздражает в Интернете во время конкурса Шопена, так это то, что это прекрасное мероприятие (для нас, поляков, это как национальный праздник!) часто становится для иностранцев возможностью критиковать всё, что является польским. Вчера, например, я наткнулас на крайне ненавистный комментарий на русском языке, отсюда и моя слегка озорная реакция сегодня. Все иногда расстраиваются, поэтому, пожалуйста, не принимайте это слишком близко к сердцу. С тёплым приветом из Варшавы :)
@@KasiaB не обращайте внимания, это было грандиозное событие, битва монстров. Я очень огорчилась, что не прошёл Хайато, так хотелось услышать Шопена в его интерпретации..Может в следующий раз.Будьте здоровы, спасибо прекрасной Польше!
So sorry for Hyuk Lee :(
This is just embarrassing. As a Pole i was a bit cringing. How can we ignore the multicultural character of this competition and announce the results in polish with bad pronunciation without help of this translator guy. This is one of the biggest musical events and the confusion among participants makes organization look just ridiculous! I hope the reason to speak polish is not 'we are in Poland and Chopin was polish' agenda but more like the Chef of Everything doesn't speak english good enough.
Maybr next time this important moment will not look like school corridor announcement.
Well said.
Thank you for your intelligent comment
I hope the tradition is in honour of Chopin. He deserves it for as long as the piano is played.
I actually think it's pretty cool that they announce everything in Polish. Let's be proud of our nations and our languages.
This competition is held once every 5 years and I am sure they can easily find an interpreter for announcing the results in English, which lasted only a few moments.
Brawo dla wszystkich
"Because this is an international community, please use English" Chopin Institute kept saying in the chat, and we freaking used English. And what about this?
What the hell about this???
It is tradition 😎
@Diana Tuova bullshit, get used to it, it's their country (like my house) and it's their "lingua franca"
The translator is there, the guy with glasses. We saw him for 3 weeks, still didn't recognize? Email him and not the Chopin Instytut. Btw i understood everything. The announcer clearly said "ex aequo/with".
Maybe you should pay more attention.
Ps learning other languages than english is also useful
Nie wiem czym do końca się kierowało jury w ocenie finalistów ,ale dziwię się że np. Kamil Pacholec i Hao Rao którzy zagrali te koncerty fortepianowe e-moll op.11 na prawdę świetnie , zostali ocenieni niżej niż pozostali tu wymienieni...
Hao rao tak, pacholec wymiękł blado przy bruce
A wg mnie wcale nie wymiekl, zagral swietnie, a dlaczego garcia garcia dostal sie do 3etapu jak w drugim etapie zagral poloneza heroicznego jak rzeznik!jury musialo spac wtedy...
Gadjiev also should have received the prize for most underrated finalist by the online community.
Congratulations to my compatriot!!!
He was also awarded a prize for the best rendition of a sonata:)
@@lucycrown212 Yes, my point is that everybody was talking about Bruce, Sorita, Sumino, Aimi, Eva while Gadjiev (as well as Armellini who finished 5th) received very little attention.
I'm so happy about the results, I hope this will inspire more people in Italy to study the piano. This is an historical achievement for Italy in the Chopin competition!
The reason he hasn't been much mentioned is that he simply didn't live up to expectation at the finals. Personally, I find it very odd that he took the 2nd prize anyway even with that butchered concerto--as if performance at the finals didn't matter after all.
@@danjo7856 Gadjiev certainly made some clunkers in that concerto--no doubt, but what's worse, missing the boat lyrically as Bruce did in that second movement or ---hitting a few wrong notes but your interpretation is illuminating and jaw-droppingly beautiful. Gadjiev was brilliant in all the other stages of the competition to make the concerto less of an issue. Bruce has fabulous qualities, but I think it's harder to play slow passages well.
@@bettyjanesurabian8237 I absolutely agree .No one will get a first place in any competition after starting the concerto with a major text slip .UNBELIVABLE ...
I love the low key atmosphere . Thanks!
Besides this poorly handled announcement, I also get frustrated that Chopin competition arranged many video clips and live interview sections and tried to curate fruitful content but they didn’t have a translator around to assist the pianists who don’t speak English. It’s so unthoughtful to assume everyone can speak English.
Exactly! For an event so popular in the Far East, there's really no excuse for not having a few interpreters. Nobody should have to rely on the help of a fellow competitor to understand and answer questions (as some of the finalists unfortunately had).
@Diana Tuova so fucking true. When i was watching the interview, it was painful. The interviewers cant even keep up the pace, they are literally all over the place and let the participants talk whatever. Hao Rao was also skipped a few times, and Bruce, wtf the winner, had to translate his questions. Where is a fucking translator? jesis christ. not everyone can speak English. A disgrace to chopin, to the competitors. They are also tired in the interview too. give them a break?
Time to start learning polish! Why people things english is better than other nations?
@Diana Tuova contest was in Poland so they should pay respect and lear at list basic words in polish
@Diana Tuova if they are so talented they should learn basic worlds effortless
It is only right and fair to add that obviously apart from this abysmal ending proceedure, the Institute have done everything else brilliantly. It's just bizarre that they could get this soo wrong!
It is kind if crude to line up all the contestants there.
The ones who didn’t make it had to keep a brave face while the winners grinned from ear to ear. Poor Hao Rao standing there haplessly. Shouldn’t it be a more human way to announce the results? After all this is more than Miss America beauty contest?
Every competitor gave a beautiful performance, congratulations to the winners.
Armellini is a ray of sunshine
A worthy winner but for the level of prestige the announcement was rather confusing. Almost an afterthought on the steps of a palace. Very strange.
No Price for Pacholec? How can that be? I am relatively disappointed with the jury‘s decision.
Some of the winners had their piano teacher on the jury panel, to say the least. Surprised?
@@yannip2083 some of them or all of the winners. It was a shame!
@@yeghianersessian7541 SO TRUE! Conflict of interest existed throughout the whole competition. So obvious!
Ja rozumiem ze pozna godzina ale organizatorzy powinni bardziej zwrocic uwage na ten wazny moment aby nie doproawadzac do takiego zamieszania. Tego tez wymaga szacunek dla uczestnikow zmagan. Wystarczy powiedzc po polsku "np "drugie miejsce zajmuje" i odrazu przetlumaczyc po angielsku przed poznaniem nazwiska lub nazwisk
What a poor ending to such an incredible competition of international interest. It was like presenting the prizes on the run. Every local, third class competition, in music, sports or what ever, presents the prizes with more heart, passion, appreciation and honoring of the participants and more festiv. What an embarrassing appearance by the jury, which claims to judge passionate piano playing and presents itself so completely dispassionately - it's a shame!
this is only announcement, it has been always like this, the gala is in the evening
It's tradition, it has been done this way forever:) On the stairs, with bad English, if any, messy, spontaneous, late at night. And you don't mess with tradition:) For glamour, pomp&circumstance check out the winners' gala concerts, they start tonight:)
Totally agree. It may also be a tradition, but if a tradition is not up to par, why not change it?
They should imitate the Van Cliburn, for example.
@@frederickfrederikfre there is nothing to be changed. It was 2 a.m.!!!!! It is a perfect tradition, gala is later. Let them rest a little bit. It was always a little bit bigger and spontaneous but now covid etc you know
@@blaht15 Yes, I know the tradition. But I do not like.
Wow congratulations to the winner! They all played well. Amazing talents
I am surprised that certain jurors with students participating in this competition were allowed to judge. Even though they are not allowed to vote their own students, there is still the possibility of manipulation in all sorts of ways - CONFLICT OF INTEREST is apparent and I am just thinking about UNBIAS and FAIRNESS to ALL competitors. They should have recused themselves as jurors for this competition.
I thought about this too. Yes, definitely conflict of interest exists, even though they are not allowed to vote their students. There is always smart ways to manipulate ... once conflict of interest is allowed.
@@vinashah6572 absolutely. We know that from figure skating, there are always ways to down-vote rivals
Good thing that the competition releases all the results publicly, so you will know how many points each jury member gave to each contestant.
I absolutely agree with you. I think there are too many jurors. Jurors whose students are competitors besides, should not be in the panel at all…..regarding languages, they should have 2 interpreters( that is easy).. Take care.
Rafal Blechacz was student of Katarzyna Popowa Zydron. Zimerman was student od prof. jasinski. You suggest they shouldnt participate in competition???
So the organizers expect everyone to understand Polish, disorganized crime causing confusions, ruining such a prestigious competition
Кёхей Сорита очень болела за тебя! Вдохновенное исполнение передавалось всему миру! Ты очень чувствуешь родные интонации Фридерика Шопена! Восторг! 💐💐💐👏👏👏
Me alegra muchísimo,a pesar de las respuestas de otras personas tener la posiblidad. De ver por TH-cam un concurso de ese nivel,y los que.

As I don't speak Polish, I understood only who was first, second and third. What were the other prizes and what for?
What happened the the modern Latin (English) for the international community? I don't mind the informal setting, but if they are going to announce the results then they should at least have English interpretation after each sentence. I mean there was that man standing next to the Director of the Competition and he did translate a little bit in the beginning about 8 awards and JJ won something, but he then kind of quit translating after that. It's very confusing to hear the names but not sure exactly what prize they have won because it was all spoken in Polish. It took me a while to figure out that Sorita and Gajiev shared the second prize. And I totally missed the fourth prize was shared between Aimi and Jakub. The only thing I was kind of sure was Bruce appeared to have won first prize and that JJ to my happy surprise won something probably the sixth prize. I meant it's not just the people around the world watching who were confused by the announcement in Polish, Sorita looked like he wasn't sure either when his name was called and had to double check with Jakub Kuzlik. Well, it was memorable that's for sure 😂😂
Sorita's reaction was funny LOL
@@zhouliao6848 Yeah, I think at first he thought he had won first prize and even took a bow, poor guy
glad the drama was in the music and not the announcement.
What the hell of this jury announcement? Not even an English sub. Take people wait weeks. And what ? Sorita not the no 1 ? Shame on this jury
Plus we were forced to wait 3 hours for this entirely "shitty" announcement. I'm resentful of my time being wasted in such a manner. Maybe all the jokes about Pols are correct.
Gratulacje dla wszystkich a szczególnie dla Pana Bruce Liu

what's the piece at the beginning of the video?

지들은 저러면서 뭘 채팅창에서는 기간내내 International Competition이라면서 영어 쓰라고 난리를 도대체 왜 친건지 이해가 안 되네 ㅋ
I think the fuss over English in the chat was because they wanted to stress the international character of the competition and make sure most people could understand. However, when announcing the winners, they wanted to stress the importance of Chopin’s polish side. Whether we like it or not, everyone feels quite rightly proud of their own language and nationality, in my view.
To the jury members - You have nothing to be proud of , I would say - quite contrary !
Garcia, Sorita, Amy, Leonora and Rao were the best among the finalists.

Congratulations to those who participated in this Theatrical show. We see that once more, Mr. DANG's Student is the winneer... much like last time in 2015 when his 3 (YES THREE) students were the winners... No conflict of interest there...
So now that we all see with our EYE and hear with our EARS that this is not a competition at all, but simply a spring board theater for Mr. Dang's Students, I would like to assure all the participants that there is no shame in being eliminated nor any real value to the trophy... You have all been Wonderful and GREAT pianists, and WE THE AUDIENCE KNOW what we now know...
That being said, the winner, although a student of "Mr. Dang and co.", Is also a very Great Pianist indeed and I congratulate him personally for his performance which was in fact Outstanding and yes I do admit that he is very deserving of the prize nonetheless. But that is not to say that all the others were NOT !! Several were ABSOLUTELY deserving of th same.
If Mr. Dang wants us to believe his students are actually the real winners of a competition, I suggest he refrain from being a judge in this and any competition. His influence within the Chopin Institute itself is much too great for us to exonerate him from rigging the outcomee to his advantage. His students are Very Good, and if they can win, they will win without him being in among the judges.
I am not accusing anyone here, but the situation is SHOUTING out loud that such a biased rigging is taking place simply by these facts alone!
If you were a participant in the competition and you did not make the finals, think nothing of it... you did not LOSE anything... and you are still a GREAT PIANIST!!! I asure you of this!
Much Love to you all and thankyou to all of you wonderful Pianists who gave us of yourselves so generously! May the Gods Bless each and every one of you,
And that's just the very tip of an iceberg.

@@richarddeschenes739 Before launching your ridiculous accusations, take a moment to read the regulations of the competition: A jury member is required to declare if a participant is his/her student and, moreover, is not allowed to vote for him. In the end, points are attributed to participants by ALL jury members, and the participant who wins is the one who has accumulated the most points.

You have no Idea how far down this rabbit hole goes... believe me, it's surprising.
@@richarddeschenes739 Why, you do indeed come across as a know-it-all. :)
Yes, lots of covert stuff goes on in events like this. But just because your favorite participant didn’t win is no reason to throw accusations of cheating. Do you have any evidence in support of your accusations? If not, your behavior is nothing more than dishonorable blabber-mouthing. You think someone else deserved first prize? Well, get on the jury next time and vote on it. I don’t know how much you know about pianism (incidentally, I’ve been playing the piano since 1965 - you must be a ninety-something then, Grandpa), but the official results are perfectly credible given the performance of the various participants. The general level of the competition was unusually high this time and just because someone played well enough to win last time doesn’t necessarily mean he/she was the one to get the highest number of points this time around. While the competition does not form the essence of my existence, I happen to live in Warsaw, I know some of the people involved (incidentally, my personal favorite, Ms Kobayashi, didn’t win First Prize either) and I do follow the event closely every 5 years.

It seems that, The 2 REAL winners were probably PARKED together in 4th place to advantage Mr. DANG and his PERSONAL decision of who would win! I even wonder if they seperated the bouquet of flowers between the 2 REAL winners... parked in 4th place!! what an insult to the Music Industry and the many talents who were left behind!
In fact, I believe that if Fryderyk Chopin himself would have participated in this DANG Competito-theater, he would not havee made the finals because he would have been too much of a threat to DANG's choices of winners.... And I don't even think that saying this is sarcasm... but pure 100% truth!
Do you know How many examiner in this competition? Only Mr Dang can not do more, let understand this, thanks
I can't agree more ! It is more then obvious...such a shame !
Dang was not even allowed to score his students in this competition!
You do realize the scores are up on the internet, and Dang Thai Son scored contestants quite similarly to his peers. Even if he were to discriminate the contestants that are not his students, it would not work because there are many jury members in total and his opinion would inevitably be diluted. I also believe that Dang Thai Son has good intentions personally. He fairly scored other contestants, and he gives off a generally genuine vibe in his interviews.
@@DavidLee-ik8dd That may be your opinion, as for several others who do not have access to the insider realm as well, however Dang used his influence; (him being verry connected to and with the competition administration), along with several other judges who had a stake in the outcome, to flip the scores and cause the selection of winners according to their rigging. The perception you pointedly have of his innocence in the matter is precisely what gives him the advantage of "credibility". There's a much deeper and obscure reality lurking under the surface. If we liken this to criminality, it is easier to comprehend... In high level Financial crime, all players will swear to their legitimacy because they are Gaining from the fraud. The losers are the victims and the fraudsters walk away with the prize (unsuspected of the crime). They always have a hidden truth unknown to the public. We see this among politicians who get into politics and become multi millionaires after just a few years through insider tading... which is a crime, but they walk away free of any accountability because their successive replacements do the same crimes and hold the power to continue supressing and hiding the truth. It's all based on the investments of MONEY... NEVER True justice.
