This video conjures up wonderful memories. As a 12 year old, I was saddened that in 1982 at the Lichfield Festival, U.K., Clifford Curzon was indisposed (even sadder, he died later that year). A lesser-known Ivo Pogorelich replaced him and delivered a performance of Schumann's 'Etudes Symphoniques' that left our entire family shell-shocked. I sat next to the wonderfully talented and modest Wolfgang Manz during the concert and got to meet Pogorelich. To an impressionable 12-year old, shaking the cold and clammy hand of Pogorelich felt like touching a latter-day incarnation of Franz Liszt. Listening to this video some 40 years later, I was expecting to be disappointed, but it was exactly how I remembered it. This is a revelatory experience. A temperamental artist with the rare ability to mine the volatility and molten inspiration of Schumann at his most evocative. Summoning forth orchestral colours without restraint. Unbridled romanticism and a volcanic artistic temperament that couldn't be sustained. Schumann and Pogorelich were a true meeting of artistic minds. Thank you so much for this video. 🙏
@@edwindepianist Thanks Edwin! Very difficult to say. Maybe aloof might be the best word, but then I was very impressionable and he seemed very tall! I believe he made a comeback - was it ten years ago? The critics didn't like his playing and said he hadn't matured and his phrasing was contrived. Reading that made me doubt myself but hearing this video restored my faith. I don't know if he performs anymore. . .
@@ManorHouseMusic Sony released a recording of Ivo Pogorelich playing Rachmaninoff and Beethoven in 2019, and Chopin in 2022. I have heard the first one in TH-cam Music. Only one track of the 2022 release so far. There are TH-cams videos of him in more recent times (probably not official /authorised recordings).
How I envy your meeting Pogorelich! He has a rare affinity with Schumann’s music. I enjoyed your comments very much. My concert highlight was hearing Arrau play Brahms first piano concerto at about age 80 in Detroit.
Thank you Ivo. " One should always try as much as possible to rediscover music as though one is hearing it for the first time, searching everywhere for new meanings and new depths. The highest function of the artist is to release the spirituality and the emotional immediacy that lie within the score. Sound becomes metaphysical only when you have completely explored all physical possibilities. you should explore until reaching the absurd. Music takes you to another universe of eternity that remains with you after the concert is finished." Ivo Pogorelich.
Merci ADGO C'était encore la "belle époque" !...Il devient difficile à suivre et à comprendre (cf: les commentaires de Julien Hanck dans "Bachtrack" après le théâtre des Champs Elysées)...
Is Ivo a Buddhist? I posited this question on Google. Bing and Yahoo and couldn't find any info at all. Not for nothin' (as we say in NYC), but when I think of Classical Music & Suffering, four names immediately come to mind: Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin and Ivo Pogorelich. Sad to say, many other names could be added, but those four enigmatic genii would unquestionably hold prominent positions on that tragic list. If I were asked to pick just one adjective that adequately and correctly (albeit not completely, of course) describes Ivo Pogo, I would be at a loss for words, which is never a Good Thing, especially for a writer. I believe that attempting to answer such a question using an unlimited number of words would probably make it clear that one word would indeed be sufficient, that word being "Impossible."
Biggest mystery for me. He looks like a Buddhist, acts like one, (getting up very early). And this recording was made when he was in his twenties. Such a talent...
One word adjective for me is "mystical"...in the sense of another "plane" of existence is where Ivo lives. Feels, thinks, emotes and creates his art, which we, the "unwashed" of the listening public, can only experience as our capacities allow us to experience "along with his great musical artistic creations" as he plays on the piano. ❤❤❤❤❤
I would like to know why the 16 bars of the Theme should take more than 2 minutes to play, when the Tempo is marked Andante, with a metronome mark "crotchet= 52"....
I would like to know, why people like you pretend to talk about music/beauty ? Terrible times, where people who should be occupied with simple tasks, considers themself as able to discuss high ones.
@@georgesmelki1 Imagine that the entire map of emotion and how we make sense of it with our physical instruments is dictated and restrained shortly by a single digit on the paper.
He is the only one that respects the score and actually plays the triplets on the etude 1 though. The ones that are on the baseline and makes the study difficult. Neither Lisitsa, Richter or Ashkenazy play those triplets. And to me he plays Schumann beautifully.

The sound is incredibly deep. It's magic..

"Impossible" is a definition for Schumann that only makes sense with an empathy that reaches beyond ego!

@@Sahasrarasmi-Sancodite That is quite possible - but of course none of us can know for sure.
Thanks ADGO
Bravo..

Where ? TIA.
Chi non suona così non può definirsi un pianista😂.
This is the highest art.
I would like to know why the 16 bars of the Theme should take more than 2 minutes to play, when the Tempo is marked Andante, with a metronome mark "crotchet= 52"....

Because Pogorelich is a genius and you're not.
@@josephcambron7060 maybe Pogorelich is a genius, but the real genius is Schumann, whose indications should be followed by any interpreter...
@@georgesmelki1 Imagine that the entire map of emotion and how we make sense of it with our physical instruments is dictated and restrained shortly by a single digit on the paper.
Pogoman doesn´t understand Schumann, I'm sorry to say.
which implies the Townsendman does understand?
... there's more than one Schumann interpretation ... name the one you that prefer
musically, I do, or at least I hope I do, as a former muscian
@@alykoss i think he is talking to John
He is the only one that respects the score and actually plays the triplets on the etude 1 though. The ones that are on the baseline and makes the study difficult. Neither Lisitsa, Richter or Ashkenazy play those triplets. And to me he plays Schumann beautifully.
