    I wish people could understand how exhausting it is to play like this. If you have seen her Ständchen, to play this cautiously and putting SO much thought into each and every note is so hard and takes a lot of concentration and she makes it look freaking effortless. Bravo.

    There is such total power and control in her playing. It feels like not a single sound, vibration or overtone is accidental. As if she is sculpting the sound meticulously as it hovers above the piano.
    I am always in awe of her mastery.

    We used this piece at my beloved mother's funeral just 3 days ago to accompany a slide show of photos of her life from a baby with her parents to a child with her 3 siblings, to a school girl, to getting married, to her having her 5 children to having her grand and great-grandchildren into her old age, dying aged 97 after many moves to many places including Algeria during its terrible war of independence in the 1950s - a whole lifetime in just over 6 minutes of music. The music of Schubert was a perfect accompaniment to these photos, in fact I cannot get over just how perfect this music was - what a lovely tune it opens with and how many lovely tunes Schubert composed!. Schubert was a genius and yes, Khatia plays this with feeling, tenderness and great artistry. This music will forever remind me of my Mum who also loved Schubert's impromptus. RIP Margaret Stedeford

    People would ask what are the differences between Khatia's piano playing
    and other female or male pianists. Well, If you just listened to a CD,
    it's okay. But if you viewed on TH-cam, watched her and any other
    pianists playing the same concerto, you'd immediately notice the
    differences between them; not just a little bit but a lot. Khatia let
    you understand and experience more of the lyrics of this concerto,
    allowed you to know more about those composers when they composed those
    works, not just by her intoxicated body language and expression. She was
    actually completely immersed in every note and the music that made her
    complete. She was completely melted in it, talking with the composer and
    his concerto. You'd become more understanding and more passionate to
    his emotions when he composed this concerto. Khatia made it become more
    alive, more vividly colorful. And don't overlook the fact that when she
    played that night, she obviously caught cold with some light runny nose,
    so you saw that she asked the conductor to give her a handkerchief to
    wipe her nose. But didn't you notice, once she start to play, once her
    fingers touched the keys, all the cold symptoms were immediately
    disappeared, the music and what she played, actually comforted her. The
    other thing that amazed me by Khatia is (was) that almost every concerto
    or piano piece she played, she almost never paid too much attention to
    the keyboard, almost never looked at those keys. When the camera
    opposite the piano took her images, sometimes you couldn't even tell if
    she's playing, but in fact she was. That's what the difference between
    her and most of the other female or male pianists and how naturally
    superior to others. Her virtuosity gave us more opportunity to know
    better about every piece of music. It'd become a poem, a poetry, a love
    story, a romance.... that's not possible by just listening to or from a
    CD. She'd not just playing it, she's talking to you and to herself at
    the same time, she's telling you a wonderful story. Because she herself
    IS THE MUSIC and all the composers were fulfilled by her!

    And just think, no one (but NO ONE!) wanted to hear this music when Schubert was still alive. Although the 3rd and 4th Impromtus, D899, were published in Schubert's lifetime - albeit in 1827, the year before he died - the vast majority of his solo piano works were first heard by the general public MANY years later. The three piano pieces, "Impromtus, D946" for example, did not reach the concert hall until 1868/69... 40 years after the demise of their creator; the wonderful A-flat major Piano Sonata, D557 (composed in 1817!) was first published and performed in 1888. Schubert was considered, by the mid-to-late-1800s, to be "quaint" and "old fashioned" and "not on a par with modern composers." Another 50 years would pass before the daring and unconventional likes of Artur Schnabel, Edwin Fischer and Alfred Brendel (all Austrians, like Schubert) to unearth these lost and buried gems (Rachmaninov famously was "not aware" of any solo piano music by Schubert in the mid 1920s!). As was the case with Gustav Mahler at the beginning of the last century, Schubert's "time would come."
    And for my Spanish-speaking friends (Y para los hispanohablantes entre nosotros.):
    Y solo piense, nadie (¡pero NADIE!) Quería escuchar esta música cuando Schubert todavía estaba vivo. Aunque el 3. ° y 4. ° Impromtus, D899, se publicaron en la vida de Schubert, aunque en 1827, el año anterior a su muerte, la gran mayoría de sus obras para piano solo fueron escuchadas por primera vez por el público en general MUCHOS años después. Las tres piezas para piano, "Impromtus, D946", por ejemplo, no llegaron a la sala de conciertos hasta 1868/69 ... 40 años después de la desaparición de su creador; la maravillosa Sonata para piano mayor en si bemol, D557 (¡compuesta en 1817!) se publicó y actuó por primera vez en 1888. A mediados y fines de 1800, se consideraba que Schubert era "pintoresco" y "anticuado" y " no está a la altura de los compositores modernos ". Pasarían otros 50 años antes de que los gustos atrevidos y poco convencionales de Artur Schnabel, Edwin Fischer y Alfred Brendel (todos austriacos, como Schubert) descubrieran estas gemas perdidas y enterradas (Rachmaninov famoso "no estaba al tanto" de ninguna música de piano solo de Schubert en a mediados de la década de 1920! Como fue el caso de Gustav Mahler a principios del siglo pasado, el "momento" de Schubert llegaría.

      Because honestly, Schubert's music isn't that great. It's very repetitive, he is often unable to modulate the thematic material. I honestly think that to call him a "great" composer is not correct.

    • @gardenphoto
      @gardenphoto 4 ปีที่แล้ว +79

      @@charles-valentinalkan5681 You are correct, Schubert wasn't a "great" composer; he was one of the VERY GREATEST! "Unable to modulate the thematic material"? GOOD LORD! Schubert never considered dead musicological terms, such as thematic modulation, instrumental monologue and intonation fabula (please!), because he was too busy writing beautiful, haunting and mostly approachable music that has lasted nearly 200 years! The best way to RUIN classical music is through constant and frivolous over-analysis. Beethoven was not GREAT because he took care to modulate his themes, he was GREAT because the basis of his themes and melodies were pure, unadulterated EAR CANDY... and THAT you cannot learn at a music college. The first of Schubert's Drei Klavierstücke, D. 946, for example, is a musicological mess: the second theme is only loosely based on the first - with occasional "erroneous" melodic wanderings - and the prevailing triplet-rhythm flies in the face of the 2/4 time signature; creating the "inappropriate" illusion that the piece is actually in 6/8 time... and ALL that analytic twaddle means NOTHING when listening to (and thoroughly enjoying!) one of the finest works ever written for solo piano! Listen with living ears, and leave the musicological foibles to the diseased.

      @@AVIDEOGAL Thank you very much for your kind words! I'm just so TIRED of pseudo-experts diminishing the names of great composers... of which SCHUBERT (!!!) is one of the most profound (and so was Alkan; fantastic innovator!).
      YES, Mozart was a mere amateur when it came to solo piano writing; his sonatas are attractive (and even staggering when he uses minor keys!), but Schubert was on another, very much higher level altogether; as Alfred Brendel said, "Beethoven's Sonatas were rigidly structured; Schubert's sonatas just seem to happen." FANTASTIC!
      Acting on your glowing recommendation, I just listened to Ivan Davis' debut recording playing Liszt (from 1961); A very fine pianist indeed; tremendous touch! I especially enjoyed his interpretation of "La leggierezza," idiomatic to the hilt! His performance of Chopin's Fantaisie Impromptu, Op. 66, is equally satisfying. Thanks again, AVIDEOGAL; we must be brave in the face of an ARMY of musical pretenders.
