I've watched many interpretations of this piece... This is the absolute best interpretation.. The dynamics and atmosphere he brought in is absolutely unmatched..
I'll be 80 on my next birthday, and I've heard everybody who is or was anybody. And I have to say that Barenboim is the most thoroughly satisfying Beethovn interpreter I've ever heard. Claude Frank is marvellous - certainly a close second. Perahia is always excellent. Arrau was a wonderful Beethoven player too, especially in his younger years, but BARENBOIM is just BREATHTAKING. His playing is so incredibly warm, sincere, passionate and brilliant beyond comparison. These are LIVE performances. MY HAT GOeS OFF to Barenboim. PS: Horowitz's recording of this movement surprised me for its absolute excellence and absense of the mannerisms that often marred his interpretations. Novaes played this wonderfully well too, and so does the young newcomer ANASTASIA HUPPMANN. but THIS is really IT.
I've recently discovered Valentina Lisitsa and she is currently my favorite Beethoven interpreter. Boris Giltburg also has a natural affinity for Beethoven and is not very well known, less than 9k subscribers on youtube. You should check them out. Thanks for your own recommendations.
The heat coming from the light is huuuuge... And it's actually pretty strange feeling. If you ever have a chance to get on a stage during a performance, use it. It almost feels as if you'd perform to yourself. The lights shining on you, the audience in the dark, you can't see any of their faces and it just makes everything soo much easier... ;) The heat though is reaally bad...
Pure musical genius and piano master. He has an ear for sound like no other. I have nothing but great respect and admiration for him. Thank you for sharing
FINALLY! Someone who actually plays this damn piece correctly. I've been through so many TH-cam videos of this piece and they either play the entire piece via bashing the keys as loud as possible or they go with the exact same tempo through out. Ugh... so nice to hear this played the right way. My only complaint is the feedback from your pedals. I wish that could have been recorded better from the audio standpoint. Anyway, awesome job. except at 2:23. ;)
In my humble opinion this version is a bit overdone. Too exagerated. I like Mr. Perahia’s performance best. Regardless of some mistakes he makes, Perahia’s version is subtle and powerful.
@@vladimirmorozoff8153 at some parts yeah but not enough to fuck up the song his interpretation of the tempest 3rd movement is my favorite ive ever herd
Pesto agitato mi movimiento favorito de Quasi una fantasia. Adoro la obra de Beethoven, su vida, su temperamento, sus luchas, lo adoro a el. Beetoven mi ídolo entre todos los idolos. La interpretación de Barenboin llegue a lo mas profundo del alma.
@Sim882 to be more precise, the passage 3:02-4:10 Barenboim is able to convey everything from aggression, fear, determination during adversity (his left hand is esp brilliant at 3:45), even fears of defeat appear to emerge from 3:50 b4 aggression and determination resumes at 4:20
No me canso ni me cansare de escucharlo, podría estar todo el día escuchándola para mi parecer la mejor composición de todos los tiempos. Es una excelente interpretación por parte de Daniel de lo mejor que escuche junto al maestro Kempff
Adoro esta gloriosa música llena de libertad, aprendizaje, plenitud en el lenguaje musical.... Thank you so much!!! long live good music, long live art
At 5:09 Mr Barenboim's left hand doesn't play the cadence at the right moment. This cadence occurs twice in the first part, namely in part one that is played twice. But in this part, while playing the ascending scale from A to Octave A, the cadence should be accompanied with the left hand!
@@chefethanguo9701 it seems that mr. Barenboim is experienced as extremely strict by the musicians who were taught by him. In that case, he should be just as hard on himself. I like his interpretation of the piece very much, but it cannot be the intention to play the notes in that passage in a different place than where Beethoven had written them.
@@edesignworks777 It would be a shame if people were only allowed to comment on something that was incorrect, only when they could do better themselves. But I'm going to accept your challenge anyway. I'm not a concert pianist, so you'll have to settle for a home recording. I will notify you via this channel when this recording is ready (it may take another year because I am currently busy with other things than playing the piano)
The camera work makes me dizzy. It is pointless. But the performance is outstanding. Within the context of presto agitato there are wonderful subtle rubatos that let the music breathe. Daniel has retained his brilliant pianism while become a great orchestra conductor as well.
Not actually, it just indicates a speedy execution of the piece, faster than allegro but slower than prestissimo. Barenboim's pace is perfect for presto agitato,as concerning this piece
Bravo barenboim, como suda el tio, fijaos 2:16 jaja, eso es poco sudor para el logro que consigue con cada concierto que nos regala a nuestros oidos, eres genial dani!! :)
Imagine when there were no recorders back then. The only time you can hear this is through a very skilled pianist and Beethoven himself.
I've watched many interpretations of this piece... This is the absolute best interpretation.. The dynamics and atmosphere he brought in is absolutely unmatched..
Unlike many versions I have heard, it is played more as a whole... with anticipation, instead of disjointed statements of skill.
The phrasing is EVERYTHING
@@Coasterdude02149 do you mean "phasing" ?
"Playing piano is not stressful at all"
-Daniel Barenboim, 22 years old
Jeremy Delley haha
Hahahahaha!
Lol
i dont get why this is funny
@@mangoisatango he's kinda saying piano is stressful now, but in a funny way
He is the best. How he control how much power to input.
And he tells story.
Unlike others only can manage to play perfect key.
This was phenomal. The best interpretation I've ever heard
Wertus Madara no Vletia’s version is better
Michelle max-max diagree
Agree with you
Yes, Valentina is unbelievable.That flows even more
Here is the link of the best version i've heard so far:
th-cam.com/video/zucBfXpCA6s/w-d-xo.html
Goosebumps!!! That last ascending chromatic scale up to the amazing trill and the final descent to pianissimo was brilliant!
Barenboim is actually the best for Beethoven
Agreed
Absolutely
nah Claudio Arrau
@@ZKLofiTone yes
Barenboim with Beethovens soul. What a genious

And how about V. Lisitsa?
William Kempf
For this mov3 I like Perahia above them all. However I don't like Perahia's mov1. He plays it too fast.
I've recently discovered Valentina Lisitsa and she is currently my favorite Beethoven interpreter. Boris Giltburg also has a natural affinity for Beethoven and is not very well known, less than 9k subscribers on youtube. You should check them out. Thanks for your own recommendations.
Did you hear Cypriens? th-cam.com/video/mZ9aO5Og_y8/w-d-xo.html
He lives, he loves, and is so preciously still with us...bravo Maestro Barenboim.
I like how it doesn't sound harsh and aggressive, I think he has played this very well
it is really hard to achieve playing strongly and loudly without sounding bangy or harsh, unfortunately i havent mastered this yet haha
Yes he plays with passion and also dreamness, which I don't hear in others
If there is a reincarnation of Beethoven at this moment on earth, then it must be Barenboim!
Fuerza, virilidad, desesperacion, sensibilida, el mas atormentado de todos los musicos. Adoro esto, me conmociona. Genio Beethoven, grande Barenboin.
Imagine if you just started this piece and suddenly felt an itch on your nose. Ultimate torture.
generalcircle ya lol that’s what happens to me at a recital :)
@K.I.N.G 666 lol
Nothing matters when in the ZONE!
theres a place pretty early on that you get like a 2 second break
Nah, just play with one hand
Truly phenomenal performance ! Such force he delivers in each tone played !
Absolute genius, I cannot stop listening and watching him
"Presto agitato" - L. v. Beethoven.
"Challenge accepted" - D. Barenboim.
😂

In fact, I was looking for a comment saying "he's sweating so much".
Just listened to about 10 different versions, and this is the only one I have a thumbs up to
@K.I.N.G 666 Sorry, Murray who?
Its great to hear it as a whole rather than parts stitched together.
Pure musical genius and piano master. He has an ear for sound like no other. I have nothing but great respect and admiration for him.
Thank you for sharing
Bravo! Daniel. One of the greatest 'Beethoven' ever lived in this century or in some case the 'best'.
His artistry shines through. It's pieces like this that make you or break you. Well done Sir !
El dolor, la furia, el delirio. La noche oscura del alma. Te deja lleno de espanto y maravilla. Gracias Daniel
Maestro Daniel..ha sofferto e studiato piu di un comune ottimo pianista...unico e speciale..
This will always be one of the most creative and liberal versions

except at 2:23. ;)
A better piece was playing by Wilhelm Kempff
You are so right, this piece is not just who is faster but also the technique and the tempo you can tell Maestro Barenboim has all three right
I think I am definitely better
In my humble opinion this version is a bit overdone. Too exagerated. I like Mr. Perahia’s performance best. Regardless of some mistakes he makes, Perahia’s version is subtle and powerful.
Except 2:23? What?
Who said "he hurried"? See the tempo "Presto Agitato" means very fast and agitated.
Helena Black I think its 167-190 beats per minutr to be exact
He did hurry. Gilels didn't.
he changes tempo more ig
@@vladimirmorozoff8153 at some parts yeah but not enough to fuck up the song his interpretation of the tempest 3rd movement is my favorite ive ever herd
He is as fast as professional piano players more than half his age. A very good musician.
I love the first arpeggios of how Barenboim interprets this piece. It's just sooooo smoooooth.... :P
Barenbiom.. Beethoven... it just fits perfectly
great performanc!!
Beautiful phrasing and interpretation. The best one of all pianists!
So glad i'm lucky enough to appreciate this beautiful piece of art.
The best interpretation of beethoven
Agree
Nah best is Wilhelm kempffs
Nah
@@maxwellspiano3580 hidruro de sodio?
@@skylermccloud6230 haha diferent opinions
Emotionally absolutely full and wonderful! Just a great pianist.
I love those dramatic chandeliers and candelabras. Really fits the performance well and sets the right mood.
I love you, Daniel Barenboim !

the arpeggios are so perfectly executed
So Barenboim is a very good piano player and conductor? What a talented man.
He’s very good, and I can’t help but notice how notes are slowed down and emphasized on. Sweet
Pretty freaking awesome!

Well played Anthony Hopkins !
Emotion is gathered by experience.
it's a piece of a concert, so it's just normal to sweat after 1-2 hours playing the piano such a high level
No me canso ni me cansare de escucharlo, podría estar todo el día escuchándola para mi parecer la mejor composición de todos los tiempos. Es una excelente interpretación por parte de Daniel de lo mejor que escuche junto al maestro Kempff
Wunderschön !!! Vielen Dank , Herr Barenbiom .
Klein Robert Richtig :)
Best concert room acoustics ever, anyone else think so too?
I have never been there.
Dude lost a few years just from playing this piece
Egli suona il pianforte come dirige l'orchestra, attribuendo ad ogni nota il suo significato.
No hay otro que pueda interpretar a Beethoven como lo hace el magnífico Daniel B.
Je sais que t’es là à cause de Twitter ou insta
Oupssss
à cause du thread là ouais ptdrrr
thread sur twog ouais >
Perfect job.
masterfully done
La mejor interpretación de la sonata 14 que he escuchado
Daniel is Superb, There is a big difference listening to this between the 80's and now, Bravo!!!!!!! Daniel.
Daniel hace es la mejor interpretación de esta pieza
He is the living Beethoven☝🏻😱
Still crushing it at 83
Adoro esta gloriosa música llena de libertad, aprendizaje, plenitud en el lenguaje musical.... Thank you so much!!! long live good music, long live art
bản nhạc hay quá. ước gì một ngày nào đó được xem Daniel Barenboim chơi nhạc trực tiếp
Best interpretation ever

Speechless!!
So different. So contemporary. I'm sure Beethoven didn't make it this way :) But he would definitely love it like this!
Yeah this is good and so are others, I liked the video that had 24 pianist play this piece. They all were good on their favorite pianos. 73
This was WONDERFUL!! Thank you, Maestro!
Супер! Очень понравилось спасибо большое за прекрасное исполнение ! Н
What a legend
Best interpretation of the song
-w. Kempf
-v. Lisitsa
-barenboim
Muhammad Aulia Al Ghifari Maulana It’s not a song my friend. Call it a sonata or piece of music. Btw, you should also check out Horowitz’s play.
@@mikeyshanghai9801 oh yeah thanks mate
Lisistsa is horrible it sounds like shes playing as fast as possible to get to bathroom aside from technicality shes horrible
so beautyiful and inspiring
the best IMO
Excellent, my favorite version is Kissin's though, his speed and clearness are insane.
Baremboin non c'è una sola volta che tradisca il significato della musica che suona, per le poche volte che io l'ho ascoltato.
Il maestro.
과하지 않고, 절제력있지만 완벽한 테크닉과 소리에 감탄이 절로 나온다♥
Damn, he is good,
Нечто сверхъестественное.....
wow, what a beautiful HD xD

muchos lo tocan, pero no con a maestria que se merece... esta me parece algo indescriptible
Not actually, it just indicates a speedy execution of the piece, faster than allegro but slower than prestissimo. Barenboim's pace is perfect for presto agitato,as concerning this piece
very beautifull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Para mi es el mejor movimiento de esta sonata para piano de Beethoven!! una de las primeras del Romanticismo!!xDDDD
Hey played this perfectly.
*****
But Jarvis is right. It is so perfect
Solo un genio pudo
haberlo escrito.
Solo otro genio
podrá tocarlo.
If my parents told me to exercise, I would play the piano because it makes you sweat. Don’t believe me? Look this dude.
Lmaoooo
Like it he's the best
I love the way he sweats over this piece!
NO WORDS!
Beethoven was not from this earth. Left behind, intentionally or not, by whatever or whomever seeded the planet. Brilliant interpretation as well.
como decimos en Bs As,te fuiste al carajo,Daniel!!!
Bravo barenboim, como suda el tio, fijaos 2:16 jaja, eso es poco sudor para el logro que consigue con cada concierto que nos regala a nuestros oidos, eres genial dani!! :)
Barenboim and Beethoven are like brothers!
AMAZING!
Amazing 👏👌👌👍🏻👍🏻
