Juste après la Dante symphonie tomber sur après une lecture de Dante interprétée magistralement par ce jeune virtuose russe me met en transe et me donne la chair de poule ! Je suis au bord des larmes 😭
This is so much more than sheer brilliance. Vitaly is showing a higher dimension of Liszt's art, and revealing a part of his eternal mystery. Great art!!!
Every other pianist I have heard play this has come to grief in the section from 15:48 to 15:58 (and it is fiendishly difficult). This kid delivers it with sovereign command.
Looks indeed extremely difficult. For comparison just look at Daniel Barenboim playing this very section starting 15: 25 th-cam.com/video/YolpUQd6bD4/w-d-xo.html
I didn't get serious about playing the piano until 7 years ago at age 65, so I must accept that I will never be able to play something like this. But I can still enjoy it, and I think my own struggles help me appreciate what a young artist like this must have done to be able to play like this.
@Gary Allen GOOD ON YOU. NO GOOD GIVING UP. I TOO PLAY THE PIANO AND I LEARNT TO PLAY FROM THE AGE OF 11 TO 16 THEN QUIT AND ONLY PLAYED THE PIANO AFTER THAT FOR THE FUN OF IT WHEN I WAS IN THE MOOD. BY THE TIME I REACHED MY LATER ADULT LIFE I STOPPED PLAYING THE PIANO ALTOGETHER. I ONLY JUST GOT BACK INTO PLAYING IT IN MY MID TO LATE 50S AND I STARTED COMPOSING MY OWN SONGS, AGAIN, JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT. OF COURSE IF I HAD MY TIME OVER AGAIN I WOULDN'T HAVE STOPPED PLAYING THE PIANO. I LL NEVER BE A CONCERT PIANIST EITHER, IM TOO OLD NOW AND I DIDNT START LEARNING THE PIANO YOUNG ENOUGH. I HEARD YOU HAVE TO START LEARNING BEFORE THE AGE OF 7. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR PLAYING. WHY NOT TRY COMPOSING SOME OF YOUR OWN SONGS AND UPLOADING THEM TO TH-cam EVEN IF THEY ARE ONLY EASY TO PLAY TUNES LIKE I COMPOSE?
@@randmgenericname5077 would you be willing to share these tips? I'd be very grateful. I played piano for 4 years in high school and then haven't touched it for 8 years now and I'm getting back into it.
I’ve listened to this video so many times and it never gets old. Such a good interpretation of this song and I’m grateful this pianist uses as much quiet as he does sound.
I've just seen an absolutely terrific performance of this in a recital by Paul Lewis at Birmingham Town Hall (25/11/2016) and then I listen to this and I'm stunned at all the improvements I think I hear. Of course, I may well be wrong (I'm not a musician and it's hard to compare things), but for now I want to say: Just Wow! and Wow again! I think this Pisarenko performance has set a benchmark which it will be very hard to exceed. Aren't we so lucky to have so many brilliant players around?! Most of all: huge applause to Vitaly Pisarenko for an absolutely wonderful performance!
8:55 gives me chills down my spine :'D he just plays it so effortlessly like he's playing the notes of a triad when really if you read the music it's jumpy as hell and awkwardly difficult to play accurately. Letalone the speed he plays it! I'm pretty sure Franz tests out all his compositions in all 12 keys, and then ultimately chooses the most awkward to play key before publishing the final composition, just as a sick joke to anyone attempting to play his stuff >.

Franz Liszt was a technical monster, the most incredible pianist of the 19th century in my opinion ! ^^ But a lot of people thinks that Liszt's music is producted by the technique, I think that's wrong, just listen to those slow ane contemplative moments in this piece, Liszt's music is absolutely wonderful, this is my favorite composer for the piano with Prokofiev and Beethoven ^^
Frankie Winters Learning this piece at the moment. Arguably that quiet F# major section just before the part you mentioned was, for me at least, the hardest part of this piece. I'm at the final presto, which may prove to top that hahaha but the large span, polyrhythm and ppp required in that section is just such a departure from the rest of the piece preceding it. Thank god you get a fermata on the low D to prepare for that madness xD
I am learning this piece. Atm I hate 3:15 and 8:55. In my opinion all the octaves and jumps are not as difficult as the tremolo and this pianissimo part.
Cannot wait to hear him play at Friends of Music this week Tues 13 Oct, Durban, South Africa. We are so priveleged to have this exquisite pianist visit our shores. Thank you, thankyou for allowing us to hear your God given talent. Bravo !!
I thought that listening to Mr. Brendel was the most emotional interpretation of Lizt but, listening to Vitaly Pisarenko I should think better about it.
Congratulations Vitaly for the prize!!! It's an incredible interpretation, with a great sound, accuracy and musical quality. Amazing!!! The piano comes to life in the way of Liszt feelings. I will play this work in a close future, you will be my reference learning this work, by now im learning the campanella, i think its enough for now ;)
Honestly seeing this right hand keeping playing octaves for 17min kinda scares me, regardless, this is a stunning performance, one of the best of this piece
Les amours interdites de Paolo et Francesca, conjointement immortalisées par Dante au chant V de L’Enfer et par la fougue puissamment expressive du pèlerin Liszt.
Per apprezzare un qualcosa, non posso che esprimermi nella mia lingua natale...assolutamente sublime, sotto ogni aspetto, il caro Kant avrebbe apprezzato ;)
Heard Paul Lewis play this live in San Francisco & cant find a recording of him playing it anywhere, so all I have is my memory. But this is AMAZING. Can't get over this piece
A question for professional pianists out there: How long, from seeing the score the first time, and you are already a gifted concert pianist, does it take to learn such a piece, from memory, and how many hours do you think Vitaly Pisarenko spent per day for this? I know it varies...but just a rough estimate.
Ludwig Galaxy ...probably two weeks if this is all he was working on practicing 40 hours per day. Most musicians are learning an entire program and probably learn more than one piece at a time, so it would take longer than two weeks to be ready for prime time.
Much appreciated that you took the elevator downwards to shake the hand of the fellow holding the pitckfork and be offered the position of providing the soundtrack.
Everyone hear me today, every time I listen to this music I always think to myself: why are we not composing more music like this? Why keep composing pop and listening to the same beautiful classical music, let us not worship these men but learn how they composed it and follow in thier footsteps and compose more music like this instead of pop music let's go back to orchestral and instrumental!!!!
Increíble majestuoso que musicalidad estoy realmente sorprendida de este joven pianista ..no soy seguidora de los nuevos y jovenes pianistas pero Pisarenko me tocó el alma. Gracias ♥️
I have heard arcadi volodos & now pisarenko. Arcadi is full of flashy playing. He is Liszt incarnated, however I love Vitay because of his reigning in of his passions resulting in a more passionate work Does that make sense? It does to me. Terrific performance!
Yea, Volodo also made arrangements to make it even more virtuoso, he is more focuses on playing it as virtuistic and difficult as possible to show off his skill, but Pisenko has different intentions.
I have a slightly different opinion, but respect man, for the whole piece and especially for the moment starting at 10:19, I know what Inferno lies there.
Fun fact: I may sound insane when I say this, but the rhythm in this piece isn’t actually that difficult. The beginning chromatic scales are in this pattern: Left hand twice Right hand twice Repeat like a bajillion times It’s the same thing with the last part. Yes, it will require a l o t of practice, but probably not as much as most people expect.
It's not the rhythm that's difficult. If you play this piece a lot slower than he is playing it, it is (for the most part) quite easy to hit the right keys at the right time. I've only tried playing the first half, but for an amateur like me the difficult thing is to increase the speed whilst maintaining some sort of control and then being able to create any kind of phrasing. Before seeing this video I wouldn't have imagined this piece being this dynamic and melodic.
Well impressive technique, you have just to let a bit more poetry infuse. So this is about Eurydice and not about playing piano. So the first climax at 4mn is about coming back from Dante's inferno, with Eurydice walking behind and they reach the day light, for example. This matters, and this astonishment of the moment. Or it's about the love for Eurydice. ANyway,
Classical composers are incredible. Listening and playing this music is one thing, but composing something like this is amazing.
Not that hard when it's your job
When your wife looks after the children it's ok

@@nutterules I deleted the comments because I haven't practiced in a long time so I'm the last person that should be giving tips
No you can do it
This is not that hard
Ive been playing piano for 3 years and I almost finished it
The best interpretation of Liszt's Dante Sonata that I have seen on TH-cam
go try listening Seong jin cho's. He's version is excellent too
Try Alvaro Siviero's. Also magnificent!
I’ve listened to this video so many times and it never gets old. Such a good interpretation of this song and I’m grateful this pianist uses as much quiet as he does sound.
A performance of Apres und lecture Du Dante that surpasses both Cziffria and Barry Douglas, the control and mastery is stunning.

Thank you
Absolutely amazing...
Some of the best records I've heard has come from Vitaly, how come there is no more releases?
Magnificent interpretation, I really liked the 2:26 - 2:37 part I think it's a key point in the piece, and such clean play it's amazing.
I thought that listening to Mr. Brendel was the most emotional interpretation of Lizt but, listening to Vitaly Pisarenko I should think better about it.
Magnificient! Arugh I am so addicted to this rendition and hearing this over and over these days. To me this is the best version ever of Dante.
Agreed, it’s like twice as amazing as my version, and my version isn’t even that much longer than this one!
Pure Terror!! I like it.
The best performance I have found,and I have heard very many.
Masterful. Incredible performance.
Liszt does not make anything easy.
Congratulations Vitaly for the prize!!! It's an incredible interpretation, with a great sound, accuracy and musical quality. Amazing!!! The piano comes to life in the way of Liszt feelings.

He is amazing!
I guess It would be hard to find a better rendition of this masterpiece.
He is a natural player.
Second on it !
Je connais par coeur ce morceau. Je trouve qu'il l'interprète formidablement. Bravo ! C'est juste splendide....
Amazing!!! That's wayyyy better than many other pianists on TH-cam!
Fantastic performance! Bravo 👏
the best performance of this piece!
Honestly seeing this right hand keeping playing octaves for 17min kinda scares me, regardless, this is a stunning performance, one of the best of this piece
The echos you do in the pianissimo parts makes this masterpiece even more intense and powerfull!
...grazie F. Liszt...sei Grande e intramontabile per l’eternità
Proprio così!
Amazing performance!!
Les amours interdites de Paolo et Francesca, conjointement immortalisées par Dante au chant V de L’Enfer et par la fougue puissamment expressive du pèlerin Liszt.
BEAUTIFUL.¨!!!!!!!
bravo vitaly, only music, wonderfull
It was not self elimination, my head simply just exploded while listening to and reading the music
Très impressionnant, interprétation hallucinante !
The best performance and interpretation of this piece I have ever heard. Wow.
Merveilleuse interprétation très riche très contrastée, pleine d'émotions débordantes et de sensualité. Virtuosité souple.
Un authentique régal
Such a wonderful composition. I dont understand its not played live often
Excellent interpretation!
Splendid interpretation !! Bravo!!
I am watching this supreme performance again today in honor of your birthday.Best wishes Vitaly!
Amazingly talented!
Loved it, thanks
Liszt is far too amazing of a composer
Per apprezzare un qualcosa, non posso che esprimermi nella mia lingua natale...assolutamente sublime, sotto ogni aspetto, il caro Kant avrebbe apprezzato ;)
Wow...beautiful..amazing...
i have no words for this
Excellent, it can't be better.
Wao, impresionante, con esto puedo creer que la música es una mujer.
Excellent!
3:04 to 3:10 is amazing!!✨
The best dante sonata i had ever heard before
Heard Paul Lewis play this live in San Francisco & cant find a recording of him playing it anywhere, so all I have is my memory. But this is AMAZING. Can't get over this piece

I used to like Hamelin's version best, but Vitaly is totally bringing out more musicality by slowing down this amazing piece. Awesome !
disagree hamelin and the volodos version seem better to me vitaly keeps cutting pedal off too soon imo
This is very good, Hamelin is shit.
Increíble majestuoso que musicalidad estoy realmente sorprendida de este joven pianista ..no soy seguidora de los nuevos y jovenes pianistas pero Pisarenko me tocó el alma. Gracias ♥️
The Four Horsemen Of The Apocalypse (1921) used this music for the movie score.
Best recording ever
Wat een virtuoos!! Geweldig. Genieten van Liszt's muziek!
A masterful pianist in full command.
You mean me right?
Speechless

Me too
Bravissimo!!!!
Amazing
I have a slightly different opinion, but respect man, for the whole piece and especially for the moment starting at 10:19, I know what Inferno lies there.
Bravo!!👏👏
Best song of Dante sonata in the whole TH-cam!!!!!
SUPER !!!
very nice, can those tremolos be played with left hand or is it better with the hands crossing....
Better if you cross your hands
Dans Liszt il y a toujours une recherche de la grandeur et un goût prononcé pour la dignité.
Wow! Just Perfect! I like his playing better than Horowitz or Kissin! Thanks to Mr. Pisarenko I won't have to try to learn this one again.
Not as good as mine
Bravo
