I am a Canadian octogenarian who has enjoyed a lifetime listening to my compatriots Glenn Gould and Angela Hewitt play the piano. Now that I have heard all of Marta Czech’s perfect performances, I think that she should be made an honorary Canadian. 🇨🇦
Diese späten Beethovensonaten sind natürlich der ultimative Intelligenztest für Pianisten. Sie fordern uns dazu heraus, unsere Grenzen auszuloten. Nach meiner Überzeugung haben Sie den Test bestanden, mit Auszeichnung. Mein Dank und Mitgefühl❤❤ ❤
Sometimes we find ourselves saying more than we know, and only later realise just how truly we have spoken. When I first came across this astonishing artist a few days ago, and played some of her magical, wonderfully-perceptive performances, I found myself, quite spontaneously, calling her miraculous Marta. But when I began playing through her great readings of Beethoven's thirty-two piano sonatas, and the three he wrote as a twelve-year-old, I noticed after a time what had been staring me in the face: the dates of the recordings. Many were the same. So I went back and checked the ones I had already played, then checked each as I played the rest, and was staggered. Marta turned twenty-two on the 25th of November 2020, and on the 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th of that month, and the 11th, 12th and 13th of August in the same year, she played, superlatively well, and recorded, superlatively well, every one of Beethoven's sonatas -- and all from memory! Miraculous Marta, indeed! For lesser mortals that is beyond impossible, but for Marta the beyond-impossible, achieving that ravishing triumph, needed only seven days. Seven miraculous days! This splendid girl, this glorious young woman, this beautiful young lady has been blessed with a cascade of gifts, the gifts that come only from God. Watching her I feel like Schumann when he first he saw Chopin playing, and exclaimed, 'Hats off, gentlemen. A genius!' MARTA: Miraculous, Amazing, Ravishingly Triumphant, Astonishing. You are a rich gift to the world, and give richly to it. Thank you, thank you, thank you...
All of Beethoven's Piano Sonatas in a mere seven days, then in two other days the Ninth Symphony via Liszt and the Diabelli Variations. Miraculous Marta, indeed! A phenomenal talent, a true genius. The Lady of Fazioli. The Queen of Beethoven.
Thank you Marta for all these riches, for sharing with the world your great and wonderful gift. I am very glad that TH-cam's algorithm chose in its blind random way to send your channel to me. It was like finding in the desert a golden pool filled with water rising from some sublime depth. All thirty-two of Beethoven's sonatas! And Bach, and more! Played on a Fazioli! And recorded superbly. I feel like the man in the poem; 'O frabjous day!'
Since I last eleven-year pensioners' time, I listen my beloved music mostly at You Tube during the cooking for lunch at You Tube, at the moment almost always piano pieces by J.S.Bach from my most honored piano player, especially Friedrich Gulda, Tatiana Nikolayeva, Maria Tipo and as pop music Yuming and Kate Bush. Listening to the music from the piano players or singer song writers always bring me mental stability, satisfaction or brave joy in order to increase my motivation to better cooking and I have little failure when cooking. Your piano playing almost always have such effects get me to better cooking, but this time it is different by listening to No. 32. When listening to fourth and fifth variations in the second set, my concentration on cooking would almost have been lost in a short time because your piano playing in these places so strongly absorbed my listening concentration.
Breathtakingly beautiful performance!! Stupendous! Congratulations Marta! I am deeply impressed. You are a true artist with a lot of sensitivity and romanticism in your play! I love it. I predict you will be soon one of the best piano players in the world! Thank you for uploading and sharing your wonderful performances. These are all blessings for heart and soul, especially in these turbulent times.
Liebe Marta Czech, ich habe in meinem langen Leben als Arzt und Musiker nichts besseres gehört. War mir irgendwie unschlüssig, ob ich Ihnen meine Anerkennung bei der ersten oder der letzten Beethovensonate aussprechen sollte. Nun tue ich es bei beiden.
This is crazy and wonderful to record in such a young age complete Beethoven Sonatas and Diabelli variations. Mind blowing! As a pianist I fully understand, what it means to do such thing and I admire your work. Huge congratulations!!!!!
Give stunningly different view angle into the music. Re-discovering of the music. High voice and low voice make two perfectly separated streams, then come back to one, separate again, and so on. Wonderful.
And the 2nd listesso tempo! You did it nicely. Like you understand the piece. Not trying to be. Oh it is a pleasure to metameet your work. Thanks and thanks.
Warum, TH-cam, gehen die Daumen , wenn man sie anklickt, herunter und nicht nach oben? Ich verstehe das nicht. Da hat man nun endlich die Interpretation gefunden, die einen völlig glücklich macht, und kann sie nicht angemessen würdigen. Eigenartig. Ändern Sie das bitte, oder ich verkaufe meine Aktienanteile und lasse dafür eine Marta Czech Concert Hall bauen.
Sonaty Beethovena w Pani interpretacji działają bezpośrednio, subtelnie a zarazem mocno. Zawarta jest w nich siła odziaływania piękna, pewna moc estetyczna, to "coś" dzięki czemu czujemy się mocniej związani z dziełem. Pani sztuka pianistyczna przesiąknięta jest szlachetnością ducha; podejściem do muzyki w najdrobniejszych niuansach od pojedynczego dźwięku poprzez złożenie elementów i jakości, po całość architektoniczną formy. Emanuje Pani dynamiką uczuć przenikających muzykę: ferment, walka, kapryśna przekora ale i czułość, potężny majestat i szeroka perspektywa. Dzięki Pani interpretacjom odnajduję w sonatach to, czego szukam: rozpiętości beethovenowskiego geniuszu. Dziekuję! Życzę dalszych sukcesów....

And an honorary New Zealander.

Wow. I did not know this.
Just more reason to appreciate what a gift we have to be able to access these masterpieces.

Superbe, comme il fallait s'y attendre !
Huge inner peace from every sound. God speaks behind every sound in Beethoven's message and Martha's performance.

Beethoven.
Marta Czech.
Brilliance guaranteed.
Les variations : hors temps ! Merci !!!

You should share your performances on Spotify. You play so well! Bravissima ❤
Arietta is divine
No wonder this video has the most views and comments on the channel. Breathtakingly magnificent performance!
Ganz große Musik kommt aus der Stille und geht in die Stille zurück - Hier wird's Ereignis ...
thobo
Sehe ich auch so. Ein wichtiger Beitrag zu diesem Thema: "Stille und Umkehr" von Bernd Alois Zimmermann.
I never knew it could be caressed like that. The beginning. You play it like a lover's hand caressing Ludwig's face. Beautiful.
Liebe Marta Czech, ich habe in meinem langen Leben als Arzt und Musiker nichts besseres gehört. War mir irgendwie unschlüssig, ob ich Ihnen meine Anerkennung bei der ersten oder der letzten Beethovensonate aussprechen sollte. Nun tue ich es bei beiden.
Dear Marta, You play so intensely driven and inspired; lovely dedicated. Thank you for this/these heavenly and divine performances. With Love.
Oh my god! This is brilliant! No words to describe how beautiful you played!
Ohne Zweifel, Marta hat Beethoven verstanden, und zwar nicht nur sein Genius sondern auch seine Schrulligkeit, die Teil seines Werkes ist.
Good job...so clean!
Hear, hear ,hear: Martha Czech!!!
Un moment magique ! Merci pour cette belle interprétation. L'adagio, absolument génial !
This is crazy and wonderful to record in such a young age complete Beethoven Sonatas and Diabelli variations. Mind blowing! As a pianist I fully understand, what it means to do such thing and I admire your work. Huge congratulations!!!!!
not mentioning the complete Art of Fugue!
Sublime!
Quanto di più grande sia stato concepito da mente umana. Cara Marta non dubito che le tue mani siano guidate dal Santo Benedetto egli sia.
Beautiful sonata and beautifully played
Thank you so much for this beautiful, refined interpretation, maestra Marta!
Give stunningly different view angle into the music. Re-discovering of the music. High voice and low voice make two perfectly separated streams, then come back to one, separate again, and so on. Wonderful.
Tocas precioso. You play beautiful. Everything gorgeous!
תודה רבה מרטה,תענוג לשמוע וגם לראות זה הכל יחד.
nella tua esecuzione del secondo movimento di questa sonata, Marta, possiamo immaginare come Chopin potesse eseguirla. Brava!
Bravissimo Marta💗💗💗
lindura
beautifully played !!!!!!!!!!!! Is Magic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EXELLENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
And the 2nd listesso tempo! You did it nicely. Like you understand the piece. Not trying to be. Oh it is a pleasure to metameet your work. Thanks and thanks.

Excelente pianista faz soar as notas valorizando está complexa obra.
Лирично и одновременно возвышенно. Очень чуткое исполнение произведения величайшего (по моему мнению) композитора. Браво и большое спасибо.
At many places in both movements, ff, sf are not observed, why is that ?
