Hi all! I'm so sorry it took so long 😭I missed you all a lot!! 💕
Welcome back
♥️
YESS IT’S HERE❤❤❤❤
Dude i do not care how long it took how the hell do you play this good.
Hi, I never heard this piece before and I liked it. Please play Moment musicaux no.4 by Schubert
Everyone talks about how insanely difficult this piece is, which it is, but no one ever talks about how beautiful it is, as well. That middle section is absolutely gorgeous.
"Исламей" это название черкесского народного танца🎉
There is also a story about how Liszt once heard Rubinstein play this composition. Shortly afterwards, Liszt himself sat down at the piano and on the first listen played this composition, according to Anton Rubinstein who was present and a shocked Balakirev, Liszt played it correctly. This is one of the reasons why Liszt is considered by many to be the greatest pianist of all time. And it's no wonder, because according to research, Liszt's hands were built in such a way that he had to have perfect dynamics. Besides, it was said about Liszt that he NEVER made mistakes while playing.
This is historical hogwash
Rubinstein was born 8 years before liszt death. So I don’t think that he was present
@@Piano_improvisationslmao
@@pianistmatous4503 oh wait looks like i still was drunk in the Morning because my instincts read Arthur Rubinstein
@@Piano_improvisations XDXD
Its cool to see how this piece in particular, looks in this format. Congrats in tackling such a monumentally difficult piece.
Thanks Erik :)
@@TraumPianoTraum!
That is super insane and amazing! This is defeinitely a Halloween special for how much of a nightmare it looks to play!
Thank you my friend!
It is such a nightmare that you made a typo lol
Esa es la velocidad.....!!!
Grande....!!!!!
This is amazing, we missed you too! Another extremely difficult piece just casually uploaded. Sharing your talent for everyone to see, you are a legendary pianist!
P.S. I have just finished the video and I am speechless. Not only did you play an astonishing composition, you also managed to add your own interpretations! Definitely one of, if not, my favorite performance of this fantasy!
bro that aint talent. This is at max 5% talent and the rest is just hard work.
This man just casually dropped one of the hardest piano pieces ever
it did take him a month. thats the longest he has ever prepared for a piece!
Traum needs more love. Bros out here playing the hardest piano piece and only getting 44k for it🙁
63k views, hoping for more
Hello, I am 15 years old.
You are my inspiration in piano music.
I want to hear you perform Sergei Rachmaninov - Elegy (Op. 3, No. 1).
Thank you! I will practice :)
@@TraumPiano Another request if you don't mind: Rachmaninoff Corelli Variations. I read somewhere that it is based on a Portuguese folk dance, and that dance also happens to be the basis of Liszt's Spanish Rhapsody! Good luck practicing! :P
@@ConcordMass they both have themes based on la folia. pretty sure la folia isn't portuguese though
@@-.a hm i read that it was a Portuguese folk dance...
@@ConcordMass then it probably is portugese
This is what I call a MAESTRO! Traum absolutely polished it and played every single note thoughtfully and masterfully! It felt like a whole movie! Traum played it in such an adventurous vibe! It was incredible! He captured the emotions in the best possible way by the colours that he used! To be honest I’ve never missed anybody on TH-cam as much as I’ve missed Traum! A day doesn’t pass for me without repeating his videos and I’ve learned many great pieces thanks to him and my whole piano playing is influenced by him! Thank you for the ride of emotions!
So none ones gonna talk about the 3 MONTHS time gap? That's insane beyond belief.
Another thing to mention that I believe had gone uncaught by many- he had accomplished lots of the piece on Day 1; nearly half the piece was in his fingers and he looked so comfortable playing it. Although at that rate he seemed very close to performing it already, bare in mind the 3 MONTHS he had spent working on it after that. That really goes to show how much musicians analyze scores and trace every single detail to execute at their finest, before they feel ready for a complete performance. The finest of details count as they all contribute to the work and performance in their entirety.
@Davis Robinson
Indeed Traum will never just upload unless he himself is satisfied with his interpretation and quality of the video. At the same time, Traum is a Concert Pianist, The performance season started like last year when he was absent for 3 months. I am just happy that he still finds time to upload for his subscribers. There are 260 videos plus Traumian and the Radio Channel to tie me over until I see a new upload again.😁
@@Traumfanblueheron honestly I couldn't believe it myself when I saw the notification for this. I admire Horowitz, Cziffra, and many other greats from the past and Traum has some of the best interpretation of works that I've ever heard. This is Traum we're talking about here. For him to execute a performance of anything of this caliber, maintaining his unmatched technique and expression, is unbelievable. And this might be the best performance of this piece I've ever heard.
@@davisatdavis1
I am a huge Traum fan and know that he is an exceptional Pianist but I was still blown away by this performance. His interpretations always speak to me. We are very fortunate to have him generously sharing his artistry.
Now, I have to encourage him to play some more Schubert's!
@@Traumfanblueheron mb
@@daniel720
Thank YOU!!!!
And there it is! Always saw the sheet music version on TH-cam, but to see a pianist's hands for the whole piece shows how technically demanding this piece really is. Amazing job!
my allround favourite classic piece ever composed, and finally, found the person, who just right in tempo, not too rush, not too heavy, well played Maestro! Stunning😌
Great performance, Traum! It’s so good to see you upload again!
Indeed
@@Dylonely42 tiens tiens
two clash royale pfps
Wow I remember when you did the 1 day practice. And now you finally posted the whole piece. What’s amazing is that I was thinking about this today…
Is it me or are those letters at 4:38? (KDO)
I have never seen someone play this colossal piece up close, love this! In your opinion, which one would be more technically demanding; Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit or Balakirev's Islamey? I read somewhere that Ravel's objective when composing Gaspard de la Nuit was to surpass the difficulty of Balakirev's Islamey in every aspect.
They are very different in style. Also, if you consider Gaspard de la Nuit as a whole, then it’s much harder than Islamey
Balakirev was well ahead of time
Balakirev gave us a secret code for the future
I thought the guy's name was balkariev
The whiskey is a celebratory drink because he mastered this very difficult piece. Good job Traum. It sounds amazing!
It's 2 .20 a.m here in the uk . I've been trying to think what comment l could make Traum......l can't ! I ran out of superlatives some 2 years ago and always thought l was watching and hearing a legend in the making . This is the proof of my thoughts . Absolutely mind boggling ! If you ever come over to the uk you must let me know . I would be honoured to see, and hear, a truly great meastro . Thankyou . It's a true honour to see your talent at work . 🥰
One of the most difficult pieces of virtuosic piano repertoire flowing so gracefully and beautifully with such ease: Bravissimo!
ありがとうございます！
@yoko
This is a beautiful piece. Thank YOU for supporting Traum 🙏👍😍
Thank you Yoko!
And when the world needed him the most, he returned.
TRAUM IVE BEEN CHECKING ALMOST EVERY DAY FOR YOUR RETURN OH HOW WEVE MISSED YOU AND HOW WORTH IT IT WAS! PLEASE NEVER LEAVE US AGAIN
Wow! This song is both melancholic and happy at the same time! Great performance
Oh my, you have to be one of the most talented pianists on this platform.. Incredible performance trauma well done
I haven’t heard a single recording until now that brought out so many of the inner melodies, wonderful job! Your performance gave me an entirely new perspective on this piece, it felt like listening to it for the first time :D
I just discovered Islamey and it’s beauty. Before this, I haven’t seen any vids with synthesia on YT and have always wondered how hard it really was… Amazing job >:))
This is the first recording of this piece I’ve seen with those coloured notes
Right, One of the hardest solo pieces for pianist to bring off. My first hearing it, was by the technically flawless, Julius Katchen. He recorded all of Brahm’s works for the piano.
Always good to see you! 😉
Never doubt the Maestro, Thank You ❤️
Simply beautiful, will be on loop's
Traum skills are amazing. He can play like thounsands of pieces and make every piece looks like easy, because of this technique. But those pieces are really difficult
@@SirloucoPiano
Traum certainly has terrifying technical skills, but, for me ( strictly a listener), I truly appreciate his interpretation/expression, each piece just speaks to me. His rubato makes a huge difference from most other Pianists.
@@Traumfanblueheron Yeah. I really like his performances too. He is both technical and musical, that makes him an amazing pianist
@@SirloucoPiano
I like to think Traum is an unsung ambassador for Classical Piano/ music, Traum Piano channel is the only good thing that came out of the Covid lockdown. We true fans are indeed privileged to be able to enjoy his exceptional performances.
Lisa, so glad to see you here on the new video! Happy we can enjoy this wonderful upload of such an incredible piece. Hope you are safe and well. ❤🙏
Simplesmente maravilhoso, obrigado por tocar essa peça
Cai bem num momento como este.
É sempre muito bom encontrar brasileiros por aqui 😀
Que emoção achar mais BR's que curtem o Traum
850, que é a duração do vídeo, dividido por 50 da 17. +2 (quantidade de anos do canal) + 1 (uma pessoa que toca) + 2 (tem duas mãos no vídeo) = 22
Alguém precisa denunciar ele pro TSE para que uma investigação possa ser feita.
@@DanielSilva-gc4xz Comentário inteligente e burro ao mesmo tempo, parabéns.
Legend
Oh my, you have really worked hard on this.
There’s a lovely lyrical quality to this piece that you bring out amidst all the technical fireworks.
Very well played sir, and cheers 🥃! Gonna watch it again!
Truly incredible performance, we missed you!
Wow Hello!
오랜만이네요! 보고 싶었습니다!!
Oh my god! I was hoping you would upload again! And you did not disappoint! Awesome performance of this legendary piece!
no way
it's finally here
2 months of practice (I think)
incredible
3 months
1 second
HE DID IT YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Traum casually dropping one of the hardest pieces on earth: 😏😏😏
your repertoire is simply astounding. this is such a difficult piece and you played it with such ease! and with amazing phrasing too. you just might be the greatest TH-cam pianist, and one of the best pianists in general at the moment.
Anything is easy when computer manipulated----sound ,speed,pitch, it's like believing in the Spider-Man movie he actually is flying through the city??? Sorry to burst yr bubble but, this is EXACTLY THE SAME FAKE REALITY created by an invisible man w a set of cut off hands!
Are you really THAT gullible?????
EVERYTHING!!
@@tedallison6112 lmao, imagine thinking you are of a higher intellectual plane because you know that not everything is real? Do you really think this guy is an invisible set of hands? Have you even seen his past videos? If not, go look at his first practice video of this same piece. If you are too ignorant to realise a great pianist when you see one, it's only showing of you arrogance. The only thing computer generated is the notes coming from the top of the screen.
Lmao he deleted his reply
@@jeviljuice1633 whatd he say
@@jeviljuice1633
Mr. Ted thinks he knows better than the rest of the subs. I had replied to a few of his " it's FAKE"! "Manipulated!"' " This guy(Traum) isn't real nor any good otherwise he wouldn't be playing on a digital piano"......You can read his ENLIGHTENING ignorant posts under 1838 LA Campanella and the Complete Paganini/Liszt Etude.
I've given him the link to Traumian channel ( to show Traum's terrifying technical skills and the fact he plays on an Upright Yamaha) but Ted is deaf to reality, he is posting his ignorance again, just unbelievable.
FANTASTIC JOB PERFORMING ISLAMEY!! this is an absolute banger since its start😭
He did it. The emperor returned from forbidden practice room to show us what he got.❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love your Islamey interpretation the most
Thanks for sharing! The best interpretation I’ve ever heard!
He learned islamey in 3 months! What!
Edit: I’ve literally never heard some of the melodies you bring out in this video lmao. I’ve only heard Berezovsky play it. I had no idea there were so many hidden voices
One of those experiences where you take a glance at the rest of the people in the audience and they all seem to be just as awe-struck and wildly impressed as you are at the masterfully honed piece you've just witnessed. Performed in an excellent manner!
HE DID IT. HE. DID. IT.
we love you Traum thank you so much for the upload
Man of dedication, it was amazing that this piece didn’t took a year. It look impossible.
Wow, that’s in my opinion one of your best videos (besides Liszt’ Sonata and Grand Galop Chromatique). You did a great work on this very hard and beautiful piece, keep up obviously !
@Dylonely
It really is BEAUTIFUL.
Hello dylonely (Liszthesis fan?)
@@Medtszkowski Classical music enjoyer :)
👋
@@Dylonely42 yes. I plan to join a competition some time this year
Яркое, виртуозное, артистичное исполнение знаменитого произведения!
again makes me feel like my asian descendants are watching me in disappointment when you’re just out here throwing these songs at us. beautiful performance!
The bass is in my right ear it’s like i’m behind the piano chilling and just listening
Fantastique
Outstanding! Your interpretation is so musical as opposed to the many machine gun style lesser attempts.
What amazing in the world performance
7:54 The Color Change is very nice
HERE IT IS! HERE IT IS!
0:02 Exposition ❤️🔥
Love the new thumbnail and the new bold title, this beautiful performance definitely deserves many more views. Thank you, Maestro.
Honestly previous one was looking elegant but this one really looking like usual
@@xevivr
The thumbnail was replaced because the title was changed to just Balakirev Islamey, by removing the Ballantine 30 years reference. The original thumbnail is elegant but this beautiful performance is easier recognized and recommended by YT algorithm with a simple title, Balakirev's Islamey. This upload should have blown up just as the 1838 La Campanella.
@@Traumfanblueheron ya it's really tough piece tho but I don't think it will get reach as in la campanella ( Rousseau popularise this piece) bcz people really dont know or majority of them from non classical side
@@xevivr
Did Rousseau play the 1838 version?
It's true, most likely only Classical Piano/ Music lovers knew about Islamey and the technical difficulty. It really deserves much more views, especially since this is the first in this format. No doubt, Maestro Traum is an exceptional Pianist.
@@Traumfanblueheron no he didn't play ,but many people afterwards just curious to know how the original version sounds that's why it just blown up ! When he uploaded
You did it. You actually did it.
traum does not disappoint. this ling ling deserves much more subs than he has
OMG Traum this is amazing! Leds are really beautiful. It's so well played. Thanks for publishing this insane piano piece! :)

Bravo, maestro
Finaaaally someone did this piece in this format, thank you so much!
I. I. HOLY FUCK. WELL DONE, I WON'T BE SURPRISED IF U UPLOADED WHOLE GASPARD DE LA. NUIT OR RACH 3 OSSIA CADENZA FROM NOTHING 😭
After seeing the sample from 3 months ago. I’ve been anticipating this for a while and wow that was really well done. Good job Traum!
Amazing! Your recordings have been an immense inspiration to me, without all the motivation your interpretations have given me in the last year I wouldn't be practicing Chopin ballade 1 and military polonaise now🤣
Thank you so much, your playing motivates me to practice 3-6 hours and inspired me to study the piano at university starting next year
Just in time for Halloween! I was starting to worry that Islamey had gotten the better of you…😂 Amazing playing as always!
excelente ,magnífico , es realmente muy bello y encantador lo que acaba de tocar señor traum piano.
i knew you were going to come back with a fire perfomance😌
BRAVO!👏👏👏👏👏
I've never heard this piece but I'm so glad you posted this! Thank you for sharing your interpretations!

Well played Traum! I just asked you on your radio chanell about when will you drop islamey, and here you are now!
Good to see you active once again Traum! And what a way to make a comeback!!! Wonderful work!! 👏👏
I've been waiting for this one. Bravo. This piece always transports me to a place and a time I cannot describe. There are melodies locked away in this monster that are just too beautiful
Traum, it was mandatory I watched this with headphones to understand even a sliver of your musicality.
Glad you are back! Incredible performance as always. You are unreal! ❤
This is amazing! So beautiful sound.
Missed u too, this is amazing! Though I feel like a catchier title would get you a lot more views - I doubt many people know this piece by name
Beautiful interpretation,Traum Piano! It's for the first time when i hear this piece,and It's lovely! Btw,Welcome back! We missed You too🥰
