He makes the piano sound like a harp, then a classical guitar and, of course, a powerful concert grand. Technique, artistry, charisma, audience appeal. He's got it all. Total command of the instrument, the music and the hall. Katsaris is a musical magician of the first order. Bravo!
This man constantly proves that Art of improvisation is still alive in classical music - unlike thousands of performers who forgot about it. He can easily fuse Rachmaninov and Japanese folk song with unbelievable beauty and then come back to the most demanding Liszt. The one and only Cyprien Katsaris - "Keith Jarrett of classical piano"
I went to the recital. i was impressed that he played the piano with his smailing eyes. He is not only one of the great pianist, but a great entertainer! Thanks!!
And to be fair, the Marcello Oboe concerto arrangement is celestially sublime. Reminds me so much of Grieg's Air from Holberg's Suite. Clearly modeled after this piece.
I must say I have loved C. Katsaris since a teen and that was over 30 years ago. Fascinated to bits, nobody on this planet plays like him. But, please, the Liszt concerto isn't a bit frenzied? Would he really be taking it at that breakneck speed if he was playing with an orchestra? Even Liszt can benefit from some restrain. Reading Carl Lachmund's reminiscences of Liszt, Katsaris playing always comes to mind although it is made clear that the Master himself objected to extreme speeds either way.
I totally agree. It's rushed and doesn't breathe. His rendition of the same concerto with orchestra on the other hand is first class, properly astonishing.
Outstanding playing indeed. But I would be astonished if this was improvisation. I would think that every note of this has been arranged very very cleverly and without doubt written down, then rehearsed to the perfection we now hear.
@@jonil9999 Oh, so you reckon he's making it all up as he goes along. What rubbish. Now list the composers he's quoting. You better get your Shazam out because I bet you can't identify half of them !
@@DavidA-ps1qr if you think improvisation is synonymous with "making it all up as he goes along" then you are a fool. No, I don't think he is making it all up as he goes along but I know for a fact he is improvising around the themes as he has other videos where he plays the same themes differently. Also, what does being able to name composers do with Katsaris' improvising? You argue like a child, yet you are old enough to be a Grandfather, shame on you
@@jonil9999 What a rude and ghastly reply, synonymous with the reams of utter ignorance that appear in bucket-loads on You Tube. You "don't think he is making it all up". "Thinking" in your case my friend, is obviously a matter of luck.
@@DavidA-ps1qr As an observer of the conservation you were having with Jonny-Lee up there, you are the one that started being rude. It is also very apparent that Jonny-Lee knew what he was talking about. Your comment about the bucket-load of ignorance in the TH-cam comment section certainly applies much better to you than anyone else here. This lack of self-awareness is certainly phenomenal even by TH-cam standards.

Katsaris is a LEGENDARY pianist...
LIVING and a legend
I like the way he twist his wrists around in between phrases,as though he's conjuring up a magic spell for the next bit
神業ですよ。延々と疲れもせず淡々と弾きこなし、オーケストラに対抗できる演奏をピアノ一台で成し遂げる。
ただでさえ難しいベートーベンリスト編のピアノに編曲した交響曲全曲を自らアレンジして録音した形跡もありますからね。すごすぎます。
Un récital de Katsaris est en réalité une grande leçon de piano !
Monsieur Katsaris arranges beautiful music, not only classical, but also other genres. ✨The Forbidden Games is also a sad and heart-warming piece.😢❤
Le maître absolu de la transcription! Ses vidéos sont prodigieusement récréatives...
One of a kind. A legend. An Artist. A genius. A super human.
日本に来てください〜コンサート行きたい
即興って速く弾くだけで荒くて美しくない人が多い中カツァリスは流石美しい。

Oleg Polyanskiy you forgot about Cziffra. Just listen - watch?v=aQ4_cpzcbFc
+Oleg Polyanskiy a few fortepianists can improvise, Robert Levin being able to improvise a cadenza. Most I've heard are for ornaments in reprises

Art Tatum of the classical pianists.Do you know Tatum's Dark Eyes?
こっこれが即興演奏！？
クオリティ高！
I went to the recital. i was impressed that he played the piano with his smailing eyes. He is not only one of the great pianist, but a great entertainer! Thanks!!
Wat een bijzonder man is C.K. wat een lef en liefde toont hij in Japan. Hulde voor deze pianist
リサイタル行きました。すごい迫力で感動しました。
Katsaris, an ocean of kind inspiration, thanks
speachless!
amazing
カツァリスの即興演奏がまるでラヴェルのオーケストラ曲のような響きの充実っぷり
Every pianist has to learn by Katsaris. Unique playing!
him and Hamelin are my favourite living pianists

C’est une virtuosité a -normale, exceptionnelle et remarquable.bravo
ピアノが弦楽器になったり打楽器になったりしてるすぎょい
Большое спасибо! ❤
カッツァンの指を世界遺産に認定したい！
即興演奏凄い
Cyprien Katsaris,in Japan,2014.Great!!
At least 2 trips to Japan in 2020. Lucky ones...
Spring 2022, 34th tour in Japan. Where? What? How? Success, Cyprien!
The trills in the Recuerdos de la Alhambra are incredible!
Bravo Mravo 🇲🇽💌🎶🎶Mexico. JS. Bach. 😂
amazing

一旦弾き始めると彼は消え､音だけに成るね。珍しいピアニスト､演奏中のCF 相変わらずぶち壊し😥😥😥。音は結果､勉強になりました。左手小指が素晴らしい❗
このコンサート、なんかのイベントのオープニングセレモニーの一環として催されて、学生料金が確か2500円でした。
カツァリスが演奏中客席の方に微笑みかけるたびに最前列に座ってた大学生くらいの女の子二人組が顔を見合わせてキャッキャしてたのを覚えてる笑
To michaël Wisse
Cyprien is inderdaad bij-zon-der. Als pianist, als mens en als vriend.
all my favorite pieces of music fused together.....
Love it! Bravo!
最後に派手な曲ではなくあえて静かなしっとりした曲を持ってくるのはカツァリスさんらしいプログラムと思う
Se nota que tiene algún talento escondido este hombre , pienso que tal vez podría estudiar piano
It'd be great if piano concertos were paired with imagery that added to the music
that'd be program music then, which the concertos are not intended for
❤Magnifique
生ける伝説

Different age.....

ケンプだって、弟子がコンチェルトでデビューすると聞くと、カデンツア書いていたな。どれでも書けたよな。皇帝は無理だけど。バックハウスは、ベートーベンの第四番は自分のカデンツ弾いていた。シフラの演奏、即興ばっかりだっただったなあ。ホロビッツのコンサートは、国家など良く弾いていて、最後は星条旗よ永遠なれで占めていた。カツアリスのこのコンサートは極端だけど、決められた楽譜を間違わない様に弾いて、コンクールに優勝しても、それだけの事で、客を楽しませなければ、あるいは感心・感動させねば、ある域には達しない。
バックハウスは出来たとしても、こんな事はしないだろう。自分の個性と鑑みて、正確な楽譜の再現をして、聴く人を感動させる。個性との問題だよな。バックハウスやケンプが出来ないはずがない。しかし、もっと他人には出来ない事が出来る。普通に弾いて感動を生む。カツアリスは、お茶目なんだよね。
This great pianist needs no orchestra.
yes they say to learn technique so it is no longer needed this is true of him

最近とても興味のあるピアニストが二人。彼と Khatia.....Katsaris & Khatia
Katsaris and Montero, 2 improvising greats...
song list?
