Playing this tremendous concerto at such a young age, and with such a deep expression and stylistic adequacy, is totally stunning, exciting, confounding, staggering...
The expression that comes out of this kid is just incredible. Such a mature sound. I’m stunned.
My family and I are thinking of you and praying for you in this emotionally trying time for you. We can only imagine what this is like for you right now and wish you all the best.
Не считала, сколько уже раз переслушала это триумфальное исполнение 3 концерта Рахманинова. Понимаю теперь, почему так много восторгов именно от этой записи. Просто уникальный баланс ф-но и оркестра. Как единый живой организм. Никто не перетягивает одеяло на себя. На первом плане гениальная музыка Рахманинова. И второе - это такие яркие искренние эмоции и душа исполнителей. Без этого не может существовать музыка. И никогда не проникнет в душу слушателей, не тронет ее. Солисту, дирижеру и оркестру спасибо огромное за это маленькое чудо! ❤
Да, я тоже слушаю именно это исполнение. Здесь юноша Малофеев показал живой, настоящий романтизм. Более поздние, его же исполнения этого концерта куда более хуже. Других исполнителей этого концерта, коих я переслушал десятки, никто не дотянул до такого уровня яркости, красоты, молодости, свежести, конраста, как исполняло это молодое сердце.
eto bolshoje chudo! eto skazka!
@@user-ws4tw7mx9lЯ не музыкант, но полностью чувствую то, что Вы сказали.
Alexander is always so kind to want to show off the conductor at the end of the performance. So polite! Amazing performance by all, orchestra, conductor and soloist!

This boy is not human, absolutely incredible. Congratulations to the all orchestra. AMAZING!
Add to that 13:30. Such fluency and coordination ending the chaotic Cadenza. Breathtaking.
Laszlo Toth add 39:02! PERFECT tempo set by the superb conductor. The solo instrumentalists are all exquisite. This is one for the ages. 211 people, for some reason, dislike it. Too bad for them. It’s such an honest performance by everyone involved in it. Pure music making. Imagine how Alex is going to grow into this after he falls in love for the first time, or after he has his heart broken. You should be able to play this concerto like he does here, at 17, so you can be even greater at 30. He’s right on track.

Jeffrey Miller i see that you too regocnised the fantastic conductor and his young age indeed makes me wonder what he may achieve in the future

Malofeev is a genius, pure and simple.
I listen to Alexander everyday. After listening I want to do my very best the whole day. Hard to put into words. Every emotion, every nuance, explodes off the keyboard. He’s a national treasure!
Exactly how I feel.
The Universe has bestowed another Gift upon us and we all benefit by witnessing it. Russia sure is rich in talent.
Мировое достояние.
@DTJKS have you heard Jacob Collier? Listen to his cover of Fix You. You will be hooked.
@@DTJKSwell, according to a friend of mine “Russians don’t have prodigies. They work their talent like slaves until they’re perfect.”
Right there with you!
Whoever you are, Alexander, god or simple mortal, I love you.
I love to hear and watch Malofeev play Rachmaninoff.
I've watched this performance over 100 times. He's so out of this world. Cute, humble, skillful.
over 200 times now...
Something so addictive about Alexander Malofeev! Cant get enough!
Addictive is the right word!! I come here almost every day, and I forget the time when I am watching this video
@Francois ...same here. Addicted, in a good way! =)
And I also!!,!!
Agrred!
Alexander, God was very, VERY generous to you. This was a joy to behold and to listen.
Tears in my eyes!!!! In the other size of the world!! I am a old man from Brazil. Thank you Mr.Malofeev, thank you!!
From Brazil, too...
Me too! No matter how many times I watch/listen, the "crescendo" that happens from ~ 08:40 on always gives me chills!
não importa onde você for, os brasileiros estarão lá.
Impressive teamwork by our admirable pianist and the orchestra- heart throbbing composition. Alexander, may you have the best of blessings throughout your life .
@Pedro Cesar ... God bless you.
This young man, Alexander Malofeev, understands Rachmaninoff's passion so well, so deeply, he inspires the entire orchestra to excellence. Congratulations to each of you.
Очень точно сказано.
Александр- красивый человек, гениальный музыкант! Смотреть на него интересно и слушать бесконечно!Здоровья Вам и храни Вас Всевышний!
His music is absolutely stunning. It has such depth especially in the third movement. That’s a true Rachmaninoff player
Rachmaninov is smiling from above while enjoying his performance.
Vincent Kwong Да 😊
It's true!!!
Absolutely...and we all from 'downstairs' enjoying Mr Malofeev and (t)his wunderful performance. He will become one of the Greatest and we sincerely do hope so..
QUE MARAVILLAAAA... Y QUÉ MEMORIA PRODIGIOSA TIENE ESTE NENE
Or from “Under”
Those of us who live in Moscow are so blessed that we can go to his concerts almost every month! This Sunday there was another mind-blowing concert when Alexander performed the 1st Tchaikovsky piano concerto, and that was a pure joy!
I watched this video so many times. Our family attended this concert in December 2018, just a few days before the New Year, and it was just as amazing as it sounds on a record. Thank God, I can watch it over and over again and to refresh the memories.
He has grown a lot as a musician during this past year. He is even more brilliant than a year ago. I can't believe anyone could be so mature and talanted in such a young age.
Looking forward to Dec 30 (the concert with Mikhail Pletnev as a conductor) and especially Alexander's January concert where he will perform the 3rd Rachmaninoff again. I can't wait to compare the new performance with this outstanding 2018 concert.
Thanks for sharing this information. Will be listening too. b.t.w. this very young orchestra and the conducter are great aswel.
You are so fortunate I feel quite upset that this superextraordinary genius has not yet visited the UK. He is , even NOW, one of the greatest exponents of the piano
I'm very glad to having attended at a concert of he playing Tchaikowskij Piano Concerto #1 in rome on 1st Feb 2020.
Im really jelaous. Hope to see him in Cologne one das 🙏🙏🙏
Браво пианист Александр Малафеев! Браво дирижор и оркестр! Браво композитор Сергей Васильевич Рахманинов!
Спасибо!

@@fernandodiasborges867PERFEITAMENTE, ELE É DIVINO❤
Sensational and at such a young age
The emotions on his face demonstrate that he is so totally in command of the work that he can afford to relax into his own reactions to its beauty.
It runs in his veins.
One in a generation. I can't stop listening to this performance. He defies logic, how is it possible that a child of this age could be this accomplished and have such musical depth?!? And he's playing a Yamaha, not a Steinway. Absolutely drop dead stunning performance.
Yamaha? I begrudgingly admit it sounded great. But I still prefer Steinway’s bass.
Для меня Рахманинов - один из величайших композиторов, чья музыка вызывает у меня невероятные эмоции, музыка, при исполнении которой у меня идут мурашки по коже. Великий пианист и композитор! До сей поры моим любимым исполнителем музыки Рахманинова был Николай Луганский. Теперь же, после прослушивания этого концерта, я без сомнений могу сказать, что этот парень изменил мое мнение. Так чувствовать музыку Рахманинова, в свои молодые года, это гениально! Безупречная техника, качество звука.. Я потрясен! Мне также 21 год, как и ему сейчас, тоже пианист, и я понимаю, насколько безумно талантлив Александр, просто дар свыше, невероятное исполнение! Спасибо огромное Александру и оркестру за прелестное исполнение этого концерта. Я получил невероятное наслаждение, слушая данное произведение, не отрывая глаз от экрана! Я очень рад, что в нашем мире есть еще талантливая молодежь, которая продолжает доставлять огромное удовольствие, играть великую музыку великих композиторов!
Can you imagine how Mr.Malofeev’s teachers feel watching him! I’d be standing TALL!
Look at his face... His mimics....he feels every single note. Massive piece. Piano is sometimes so gently sometimes is wild animal
I absolutely love watching his facial expressions, you can tell that he genuinely loves the piano and music. I was going to comment something else but I can’t figure out how to word it...
@Daisy Flower he has given me hope in achieving something so much less significant: passing my chinese herbs board exam (will let you know in august)
@@catherinehegazi4440 So beautiful of you to share how his beautiful playing gave you encouragement! Thanks.
I am in tears throughout.What a devastatingly beautiful work, in the hands of a very great young pianist. And such a wonderful Russian youth orchestra under a great conductor, Dimitris Botinis.
YES! So I am not the only one.....
Alexander was barely 17 yo when he performed this, which means he was actively pursuing this masterpiece when he was just 16 yo, plus all the other performances of great masterpieces he was already performing at age 14, 15 and 16. It's just amazing to me. What a blessing he is to all of us that are following his wonderful career in music.
Wholeheartedly Agree 😊
Рахманинов может быть спокойным. Есть достойный его таланта соотечественик! Великое искусство. Храни Бог.
Счастье, радость слушать этого мальчика! Браво! Браво! Не умерла ещё советская знаменитая музыкальная школа!
Galina Melnikova Да , это возможно один из молодого поколения..
и слава Богу, чего ей умирать? не оскудеет земля Русская такими талантами!!
Просто, Сашенька- живой гений ,как Моцарт,как Рахманинов.
There are so many great pianists - more than ever before maybe, but this young man is something different - he is that once in a generation gift from the universe. Every time I hear him play I am glad to be alive to hear something so profound.
And this youth orchestra is phenomenal.
I agree!!
, Shostakovich play Shostakovich fifth
Russian winters are rough.
Я люблю цього піаніста! БРАВО!!!
Yes, he is amazingly different from the very best pianists.
It doesn't matter how many times I listen to this piece, it brings a tear to my eye.
Such an absolutely masterful performance by Alexander, no less, at just 17 years old! Also to be lauded are the orchestra members-how is this a YOUTH orchestra? My goodness! The conductor was also fabulous.
It's been a complete privilege to watch Alexander here on TH-cam for the last few years. I cannot wait until I can hear him perform live!
First time I ever heard this kid. I took 10 years of private piano. I am an amateur compared to this piano genius. I found myself intertwined into his every movement, an emotional experience to watch and listen. I wanted to shout, scream and cry all at the same time! PHENOMENAL!!!
❤
Russian passion: only these guys can perform this stuff well. This young man is brilliant.
Ничего добавить не могу. Всё что нужно, здесь сказали. Остается пожелать Саше здоровья на долгие годы, беречь руки, не перетрудить их на радостях, не сжечь себя раньше времени от напряженной учебы и работы, уберечься от возрастных соблазнов и дальнейших успехов.
Very good advise .
Bravo.😊
When I stumbled upon this performance of the Rachmaninoff 3rd, I wasn't expecting much beyond technique.
How wrong can one be? It was immediately clear that I was witnessing an utterly stunning phenomenon. Not only does the then 17 year old Alexander Malofeev show how it should be done, it is with supreme musicianship, confidence and maturity. The orchestra too is quite superb. It was only five weeks ago that I discovered this wonderful video; since which I've listened to it at least twenty times, and I still get the chills every time I do. I will watch the progress of this astounding young pianist with great interest, but something tells me that he may well end up as the most revered of all. A simple thank-you seems so inadequate, but to Alexander, the superb orchestra, the conductor and TH-cam.....thank you all.
The audience reaction says it all, better than I.
wow - Duane, you're so right - pal - you said it all
And you said it for me as well.
He was 15 when he recorded the Rach #2 not 17.
@@richardbutler9466 age 15, Rach 2 / age 17, Rach 3. And now at age 19, you name it, he's performed it. Just amazing.
OMG Alexander...Interpretation far beyond your years...what talentwhatgenius....it just gets better and better. The emotion! Not only shows on his face...but comes through clearly in his touch on the keyboard...You Alexander are indeed blessed by the Absolute.
Насколько надо внутренне выоасти, чтобы в таком юном возрасте так зрело чувствовать гений музыки и так т мастерски талантливо исполнять. Восторг. Браво. Храни Вас Бог, Александр Малофеев.
Frankly saying I am not a classical music lover. My habitat is rock. Unfortunately I heard Alexander in Rach 3. And now I am overwhelmed and lost. It’s other universum. I am drowned, immersed and not being able to return to normal music.
Room for all kinds of music in the world
I love music... Modern music makes vibrate, vintage music (20's and 30's) puts me in a good mood, baroque reassures me, but only Rachmaninoff brings me to tears and gives me goosebumps. It transcends something in me. Welcome to a new world, and enjoy the many discoveries and safaris...
So you've finally got INTO the candy store and tasted the samples. You'll never go back. Things will never taste the same.
@Al Bolk You must listen to Alexander's Rach 2 also. Incredible! And if you listen to his Prokofiev Concerto No. 3, you'll be blown away. Be ready though, it's unique to say the least, mixed with amazing beauty.
Some of my favorite classical pieces are not the most famous. Let me know if you’re interested and I can share them. I’m a classically trained pianist myself.
I cried. This is from another world, from universe.
@Miran Crystals: Alex's God given talent is a present to a world in turmoil. (Holland-eu)
An angel. Music, beauty, the only reasons to hope in this decadent world
THAT ENDING ON THE 3RD MOVEMENT GETS ME EVERY TIME!
I'm still listening and I keep getting more blown away by his playing, it's.... I'm speechless 😢❤❤
Молодец Александр! Гордимся тобой, русский парень!
Я засмотрел это видео «до дыр». Чем больше смотрю, тем мощнее, ярче божественный свет... энергетика какая-то невероятная. Это космическая Музыка.
Полностью солидарна с Вами. У меня прослушивание вызывало такие же невероятные ощущения и такой душевный подъем, что и не передать.

И она очень русская!!!
I have listened to this concerto all my life but have never been so moved as by this superlative performance.
The passion, emotion, sensitivity and artistry displayed by Sasha is phenominal. Bravissimo! Большое спасибо!
It's also wonderful to have close-ups of the orchestra and conductor all young and talented but outshone by a seventeen year-old prodigy. I wept with joy throughout. Longing to see him in Scotland.
@ned - I agree with you completely. A superlative performance in every way.
Alexander, as long as I live I will continue to listen to you play this concerto.
Stunning performance. Always has been one of my favorite pieces. My grandmother (b. 1894) worked in DC during WWI and told me that she had seen a concert where Sergei himself performed this piece.
That must have been unreal.
Like being in the presence of a god
Oh wow!! Did she tell you more about it and how it was?
This particular Concerto was never one of my favorites....Until I heard Alexander Malofeev's performance of it.
I love the venerability he portrays as well his excitement, it is well structured where it needs to be and loose in the right places. It makes me wish I didn't drop out of my music degree.
Soy un peruano que acaba de descubrir la música a manos de este pianista. Las obras de rachmaninoff me han atrapado, me han transformado… es como un renacer. Y sé que no quiero morir sin antes poder ver a Alexander de cerca.
Вы можете увидеть и услышать его в Лиме в августе.
I too would love to attend one of his concerts. I’m from South Africa but my son lives in Spain. I must check his concerts, I know he plays in Madrid.
I'm an avid fan of alexander.he seems to be an angel playing for all of us who appreciate classical music.he is soooo great,wonderful full grown pianist in this century.keep up the good work Alexander,God bless you mightily with the talent he bestowed upon you💖
In twenty years of listening, learning, and understanding this piece, I didn't think I would ever find a performance that would replace that "I love the first version I heard" feeling. Maybe until now. This was a total slaughterfest, in the best way. . . He hit notes I didn't even know were there. . .
Oh my god your the first person to put it into words about the first version
Daniil trifonov wants to know your location
I have to say I understand what you mean, this performance is frankly perfect better than Yuja Wang even. But it will never take the same place in my heart as Martha Argerich’s version has, that version of the piece I is the one fell in love with.
@@thibomeurkens2296 you are so right. No performance can equal the one played by Martha Argerich. No living pianists are even close to Martha's performance of this concerto.
❤️❤️❤️
I am a complete and utter mess.
I listened to Alexander for the first time today, even though I have heard a lot about him a lot before, starting with Rach 2 which completely messed me up now Rach 3 too.
I am astounded.
My poor South African heart has melted on this Sunday 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The ossia ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ya lyublyu tebya Alexander
Henry I am a fellow South African and a huge fan of Alexander's!I read everything about him and his work that I can lay my eyes and hands on .He is nothing but astounding!A level of maturity that belied his age since he was very young and emotional intelligence to be able to perform this music in such a superior way.He is truly a phenomenon .He completely broke my heart yesterday with his performance of the second movement of the Rach 2.I too was a complete mess!When we are allowed to travel overseas freely again,Russia and one of his performances in Moscow is on my bucketlist for sure!
From another South African yes this was breathtaking!!❤❤❤
I know what you mean 😭🥰😁 I am lost for the world when I watch this video. It’s so overwhelming, I go through so many emotions while listening, and I can‘t do anything about it
This is the most beautiful thing my ears have ever heard
The miracle is not just in the genius of Malofeevs playing but also that we were alive to hear him! I’m forever humbled!!!
Sublime!
I do relate to your beautiful words! He is absolutely unique!
Unimaginably Brilliant!!…You have a Wonderful Career carved out for your entire life. The whole classical world will want to hear you play. God Speed and Bless You.
@Janet ...I am forever humbled also. What a blessing and a joy to watch Alexander perform and so beautifully.
Alexander doesn't PLAY the symphony, it FLOWS from him. Bravo.
I can feel this music tells a story
Incredible performance. Totally amazing. The composer would have loved this. The Ossia cadenza is perfect. There is something divine in this young pianist. The far best interpretation of this maybe the most beautiful piano concerto ever composed.
Oh My God!!!!😲😲😲😲😲 You sound like the original Rachmaninov! At first I couldn't believe it was you playing this masterpiece! Wow! PURE BRILLIANCE! BRAVO! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌💖💫
Спасибо родителям за гения! Потрясающе!
Phenomenal. With a conductor like Dimitris Botinis you feel safe. Orchestra produces amazing sound.Outstanding musicians and burning passion.Bravo.
I love Alexander Malofeev.
Это конечно феноменально,что человек в этом возрасте исполняет это произведение.
Я лично в первые такое вижу и слышу.
Can hardly believe someone so young can play this monstrous concerto so beautifully! Just barely 17 yo....amazing!
Boy playing Rah 3 ! OUTSTANDING! Wish you all the best in your love young man.
One can see from the expressions on the faces of all these musicians, that they realise that they are part of something greater than themselves, greater than the occasion and that they are in that timeless world where great performances of great works forever shine.
Rachmaninov used to say that Horowitz was the greatest exponent of this work and that he played it better than the composer himself. But Rachmaninov never heard Alexander Malofeev!!!. I listened to Alexander play and was left awestruck. So, just for the record I went back and listened to a recording of Horowitz. Horowitz is wonderful and you wonder if ANYTHING could be better, he is absolutely breath taking!. Alexander actually stops you breathing just in case you may miss some of the beauty and sensuality of this performance. His interpretation is superb and befits a maestro of greater years than his tender 17 when he played here.. it really is very very beautiful and emotional. Looking forward to watching this talent develop
Bravo, bravissimo¡
Vous avez absolument raison
pletnev played it best. better than this one. I've never heard it played better.

HOW ABOUT NICHOLAI LUGANSKY-RACHMANINOV 3
Nikolai Lugansky has the best interpretation of the piece no doubt
These young people play Rachmaninoffs third piano concert in a way that makes it the benchmark-performance to me. Must have heard it a 1000 times now.
This brings tears to my eyes -- if only the world could concentrate on creating and appreciating such incredible beauty, talent, and effort. We would be so much better off.
AND he can play the piano!!!
Dear Paula Forrest, I had the same feelings like you and was glad that such concerts and similar actions are still possible in this vanishing world of unrest, warfare, revolutionary developments and the like!
Let me assure you, that in this age, your vision will remain unfulfilled, but to the contrary, this world will end in dispair and craze because man (and weman) in the majority have no interest in real peace and love amongst them! I am very unhappy to express this, but as a christian (thru HIS grace) for more than 30 years who reads the WORD of GOD regularly, it will come true only in the coming age after MY LORD JESUS has brought an end to this world and will afterwards erect THE KINGDOM OF GOD where then PEACE from THE LORD GOD will reign and there will be a NEW WORLD which is also called "THE MILLENIUM"!
Will you participate in HIS KINGDOM here on this earth? I will but only by HIS grace and salvation which I have accepted some 35 years ago and now serve HIM and await HIM daily with great joy and happiness in the midth of all this rising chaos worldwide, especiallly the western hemisphere!
Therefore: "Search for JESUS and HIS LIGHT, everything else is in vain!"
@Irredeemable Deplorable Covfefe MAGA Deplorable is the right name, if I get your drift. There are many more dangerous associations America has while they take over our country without a whimper.
Exactly my thoughts:)
Henning Beinsen This either the work of stupidity or indoctrination. Maybe both?
20:24 one of the most beautiful moments in all of Rachmaninov’s music. It’s the chaos and sadness of an exile; the music then beautifully transitions to the D flat major key, a key of consolation. Alexander Malofeev expresses this beautifully. He is destined to be one of the greats.
Jeff Smith what’s the piece called ?
It's the video's title
That theme, however, is effing depressing. It starts up in my mind whenever I'm depressed. A pure, dreary, Russian lament, despondent, dropping in pitch and settling the second it starts, like a head resigned, bowing after shaking a fist to the sky was already deemed useless... Depressing, dreary... Pass me the vodka, I love my sadness.
Гениально!!! Руки собраны, минимум движений, техника потрясающая, а уж музыка, Рахманинов-обожаю!!! Вот этого не хватает в жизни: прелести, чистоты, уникальных вещей и людей!!!
Гениальная музыка и исполнение! Даже не верится, что эту музыку создал человек! Нечто божественное или инопланетное! Малофеев - браво! Брависсимо! Оркестр - нет слов! Эмоции зашкаливают!
Человек не может ничего создать - он лишь проводник. Вся великая музыка от Бога . Эти концерты " Рахманинова" звучат по всей галактике миллионами цивилизаций ❤️
Crying... It's so beautiful... Too perfect too wonderful too.... No. Words just listening
This performance will most certainly remain as the gold standard for Rachmaninoff's Concerto #3 for a long time to come; BRAVO 👏👏
Can’t stop listening his music. Bravo 👏 this is something that goes beyond everything.
donno why i always cry when i watch this,,,thank you
ALEXANDER THE GREAT! ... Amazing performance ... Alexander said in an interview that he learned this extraordinarily challenging piece in 4 weeks! A wonderful performance and an excellent orchestra and conductor. Thank goodness we have an excellent video as well from people who really know how to film an orchestra well and enhance our enjoyment of the performance. A classic! ... This is the pianist as hero.
Wow, this boy is amazing and beautiful.
The most expressive Rach 3 I've heard.
Amazing Music Alexander The Best Pianist in The World Today
I have heard this performance now for at least 60 times; AND IT STILL IS MAGNIFICENT!
So have I - just wonderful !!
Me too!
And it always will be!!
Same here
Master Alexander Malofeev, you're unbelievably talented, your outstanding performance made me feel both excited and deeply moved. You're absolutely brilliant... wishing you the very best !!!!!
What an astonishingly beautiful and talented boy
There is something magical to this performance. Even though having heard this concert now for several hundred times it still is as beautiful as the first time. Very near perfection.
You are so right. Magical is the word. Actually, there are many more, but that will have to do for now.
I have watched about twenty Rach 3 Videos now, and for me- this one is perfection. Because there is such a unison between soloist, conductor, orchestra tutti and orchestra soloists. And everyone is so beautiful, and the recording quality is excellent. All my senses are satisfied, that is rare ❤️
Yes, his performance is incredible, and the orchestra is robust, and the acoustics are gorgeous.
@@prototropo He deserved a roaring standing ovation, Period !!!!!
In these months of sickness, death and distancing, Mr. Malofeev, the orchestra, conductor and the MUSIC can reach out and make contact with every one of us. I'm a teacher, a getting-old teacher, and whenever I see a young person accomplish something extraordinary, like Hanyu on the ice, Biles on the balance beam, David Hogg and others speaking on TV after the shootings at their school, I am emotionally overwhelmed. Had I been in the concert hall for this performance, I would have been sobbing for joy at the end for fifteen minutes and everyone who saw me out on the street in front of the hall would have thought I was nuts. I'm very good at what I do, which has nothing to do with music, but it's been, so far, a 47-year career I can be proud of, not one particular moment. The only time I ever felt like I accomplished something in an inspired moment was when I sang Orff's _Carmina Burana_ in the last concert I took part in with my high school glee club. By any standard it was a very good performance. Our conductor always exploded at any comment like, "It was very good for a high school glee club." It was either good or mediocre or bad, regardless of who was performing. The dress rehearsal had been awful, but that night we somehow all became part of the music. Our audience went wild as I had never seen it do before when the immense sound of the last note was replaced by silence. It sounded like we had just won a basketball game with a 3-point buzzer-beater as time ran out. It was almost too much heart-pounding emotion for a shy 17-year old. I cannot imagine creating such intensity as Mr. Malofeev does and inspiring an audience to that kind of emotional peak over and over again by the age of 17. Bravo to him for his unique talent and hard work that enable him to do so and enrich us all, even at a distance.
Gnirol Namlerf m’
...and of course the great Mondo Duplantis.....agree about Hanyu on ice
You had me until David Hogg.
thanks for sharing how this kid's efforts are so inspiring (and healing).
Yeah, David Hogg is a moron and an opportunist! He wasn't even at the High School during the shooting. Unfortunate that you had to bring politics in to this Amazing Performance by probably the Greatest Pianist I've heard in my 57 years on this earth!
Alexander is perfection on earth!! I am overwhelmed!!
This is the best version.
I spent about 19 hours looking through roughly 28 versions of the Rach 3 all day today while working (artwork; I don't sleep much). The version with Rachmaninoff himself playing was excellent (obviously, since it's Rachmaninoff), but the sound quality aged terribly, making this the best. The tempos are correct, the beginning (most important part to get right, imo) is perfectly executed (not too soft or loud), and there isn't overt emotional lag. This kid is the best at playing this piece.
The best.
I agree with you this is one of the best performances I've heard. I also like the performance of Alexander Gavrilyuk, you may be interested in
Lazar Berman my reference
this version might not have been in your 28, as it is not so famous - but I would really recommend Bernd Glemser & NSO Ireland (uploaded by aaron8895). It is a huge interpretation of the concerto, and the one which I keep returning to
Yefim Bronfman and Denis Matsuev !!
Also like Biron Janis
I was there!!! Incredible!
His voicing is incredible. I heard notes I have never heard before!
@Philip ...amen, and me too. Simply amazing.
I am in absolute AWE at the utterly magnificent playing of this 17-year-old wunderkind and the equally awesome performance of the wonderful Youth Orchestra led by Maestro Botinis. Unforgettable and overwhelming!!
Aaah. So good. The phrasing impeccable. And passionately Russian. Broad and deep. Amazing. Really.
Вот что то исконное русское, сказочное, родное. Встают образы богатырей, березок хоровод... Русалкины танцы... Простор, красота, воля вольная... Очень образное исполнение! Дуща вся, словно, крылья расправила и готова летать над этими прекрасными далями... Спасибо онромное!!!!!

«Как же могут эти руки, эти звуки извлекать» Восторг! Игра А. Малафеева превосходна!
Excellent, young man!
Gifted young man!! And what is so wonderful is the expression, he feels every note and not afraid to show it! Bravo!!!!
Incredible considering his youth and therefore his lack of life experience. His performance can only get better with time.
Une interprétation PHÉNOMÉNALE. À réécouter sans modération! Tout y est absolument extraordinaire. Mille bravos Alexander MALOFEEV pour cette merveilleuse prestation et à l'orchestre et son chef ainsi qu'à l'équipe qui a fait la prise de son et les images. Le grand Sergueï RACHMANINOFF et son opus. 30 n'ont à mon avis jamais aussi bien été servi que dans ce magnifique concert! Merci de tout cœur pour ce magnifique cadeau!
Somehow, it gets better the more you listen to it.
Помимо неземного таланта, этот мальчик ещё и потрясающе красив. Браво. Глядя на таких людей, хочется верить в будущее нашей страны.
Kate Vol у страны с такими людьми не может не быть будущего! Оно обязательно будет для нас всех!
Vous pouvez croire en l'avenir de votre grand pays ! Nous y croyons aussi (c'est un secret que vous ne répéterez pas)
@@picardiebelleregion9508 Спасибо.
Большое спасибо, я потрясена, какой талант, какая музыка, какое исполнение!!! Браво!!!
В 30-х годах прошлого века Рерихи предупреждали, что шестая раса попрет из всех щелей и никто их не удержит. И такие дети появляются во всех сферах. Их становится все больше. Раньше, 30-50 лет назад такого не было.
будто чистейшей воды из родника напилась! Спасибо всем музыкантам за этот шедевр!
Вот вот, именно чистейшей воды из родника, словно заново родился....
Alexander, thank you for your love and dedication to the piano as your instrument. You have me such deep feeling and I could feel your love of the composition. Please always love you for who you are no matter what...love transforms no matter what winds of life blow or the trials small and great...you are the most important.... follow your heart little one...
I adore this beautiful human so much!!!! I can fell him. Alex, THANKS!!! And never, never thing about to stopp - your mission isn't complete , yet. Your own Sinfonie will come. *big hug*
Глубина нежности и любовь в каждом звуке! Зрелое чувствование, будто сам Сергей Васильевич незримо благословляет и юного музыканта, и нас, слушающих и внимающих эту Божественную Музыку! Благодарю!
