In my opinion is this one of the best Pathétique performances ever.
absolutely agree with you
I prefer Barenboim :-)
@@romanleo740 At least you should say: the young Barenboim ...
Why?
Now he is an excellent conductor, but not more an outstanding classical pianist.
You can barely put a sentence together.
I agree with you.
Prodigy at piano. Also it’s insane how a human brain can come up with music like this. Long live Beethoven.
He's dead.
@@searchmeinyoutube he will never die :)
Immortal!
He was 35 years old when he performed this. He always excels in Beethoven. Superb.
The incomparable Vladimir Ashkenazy! I still remember going to a rare concert at the Carnegie Hall one beautiful spring day in the '80. It was a transcendent experience and everyone in the packed Hall had glistening tears of joy. There are many great pianists but there is only one Vladimir Ashkenazy.
I completely agree with you 😉
Absolutely true😌🎹💪🏻
This man is not allowed to die.
I think this version is actually the closest to how I envision Beethoven playing it. Rustic. Raw. Not too fast.
instablaster...
However, Beethoven would have observed the demisemiquaver rhythm he wrote in the first few seconds of the piece and not tried to smooth out the tension of the dotted rhythm!!!!!!!
@@grumpyoldpianist3251 Yes, Beethoven was (in)famous for being extremely adamant that all his music be played precisely the way he wrote it.
Not too fast my ass. I'm learning this piece and my left hand dies thinking of this speed
i like it raw ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Vladimir Ashkenazy's version of this beautiful sonata is extraordinary
I'm exceedingly fortunate to be living in a time and place where I can experience this extraordinary recording.
Fantastic.
One of beethoven finest, performed by one of the world's finest.
I felt every note.
Слушайте Рихтера.
Whenever I hear the great musical wonder that was Beethoven played right, it sets my heart racing and my blood coursing through my veins. It fills me with courage, and never fails to move me. I love the man, and I love his music.
So do I
and so is Schroeder
I met Ashkenazy at a piano recital in Carmel, California over 30 years ago. His hands were out of synch with his diminutive size. His hands were the hands of a man a foot taller. It was a treat to shake his hand and thank him for keeping the MUSIC alive.
What? Ashkenazy is known for having small hands, being able to barely reach 9 notes
@@kakasvk I'm taller than Ashkenazy by two inches and my hands are smaller than his.
@@GnomicMaster then your hands much be pretty small as well
@@kakasvk As a pianist/composer my compositions are limited in technical spirit by the size of my hands. As it has been suggested, biology/anatomy dictates relative success. There are perfect swimmer bodies, perfect runner bodies, perfect rock climber bodies, and perfect musician bodies, especially hands and fingers. Ashkenazy is the exception to this rule. He hasn't the hand size of a Horowitz or Liszt or Lisitsa yet his mastery of the 88 keys is amazing. When I was still playing the music of others there were pieces I just could not play well due to having small hands. Off the top of my head I think of the third movement of the Moonlight. I mastered the easy first and second movements but the third was a huge challenge for me so I never played it well. This goes for other challenging compositions that favor large hands and long fingers.
@@GnomicMaster it's not really that super important to have big hands. Hand size is pretty overrated topic in piano world. Ashkenazy is far from only top level pianists in the world who have small hands. There are world class pianists who are reaching barely above octave.
Yes, big hands give advantage over smaller hands especially for pieces that require big reaches, but there are always workarounds. Last resort being not playing omitting some pieces. On the other hand, smaller hands also give few advantages over big ones and big ones have their disadvantages too.
The slow movement beginning at 10:07 is profoundly beautiful! I listen to it over and over! It reaches to the depths of my soul! Bravo Beethoven and beautifully played here by Ashkenazy!
Amazingly I remember going to this concert. My mother taught at Essex Uni and was able to get tickets. I was only 16 then but the concert introduced me to the Beethoven piano sonatas which I have loved ever since; so much so I remember asking for the box set of the Barenbiom Beethoven sonatas for my 17th birthday!
Douglas Kay Why not Ashkenazy!
Me gusta mucho más Ashkenazy
La forma en la que transmite la obra me emociona más
I prefer this record of Ashkenazi to the other one of Baremboin in youtube because it sounds less round, less perfect, more rude, more agressive, in 1st movement. And it's a good contrast with 2nd.
Is that you in the very front at 2:20?
Wrong choice lad
Ashkenazy plays with an earnest, urgent nature that does not betray the nuance of the music. He's the best.
I was a student at the university at the time and although not managing to get a ticket for the performance, was able to hang around in the lecture theatre throughout the afternoon rehearsal. Happy days.
Не знаю, возможно ли сыграть лучше...
И это не только Бетховен в его исполнении, а как исполнял Шопена!... удивительный и чудесный....спасибо Вам!
Humans. Capable of such pain and suffering but also capable of such profound beauty. This gentleman is a herald of the latter.
I believe Askenazy is also very capable of conjuring the demonic - to raise hell, so to speak.
Indeed!
It's because of the pain beauty comes alive!!
Yes, your comment is as eloquent as his performance.
Ravishing. At once silken and On fire. The perfect musical roller coaster ride.
Необыкновенно вдумчивая работа пианиста. Помимо блестящей техники, огромный душевный труд.
Каждую ноту пропустил через душу. Отсюда, если отчаяние -то безмерное, если ярость - то сокрушительная, если надежда, то последняя.
И это усталая безнадежность умиротворения
во второй части...
Выдающееся исполнение !
В 10 лет я влюбилась в ,,Сурок,, Бетховена! И всю жизнь обожаю все Его произведения! СПАСИБО огромное Исполнителям! Эмиля Гилельса была у меня пластинка Ташкентского завода! !! Вот уж наслаждалась! Слушала постоянно!🙏🎶🎵🌈❤️🌹🌷
Our world wouldn't be the same without the blessed existance of the «immortal beloved» Ludwig van Beethoven
I think immortal beloved is the term Beethoven used when referring to the love of his life in love letters that were found following his death. But then maybe you were saying Beethoven is ‘your’ immoral beloved? In which case fair play. He did indeed change the world. 👍
@@bbwnpat Immortal beloved is the name of one of the movies about his life.
@@patriciabravoriscal6264 yeah i know. It’s not referring to Beethoven himself though as you imply in your original comment. I just thought you might like to know that the movie ‘Immortal Beloved’ is named after the term Beethoven used when referring to the love of his life in love letters found following his death. - that was all. 😉… Great move by the way. I thoroughly recommend it. 🎵🎵🎵
@@bbwnpat The reason is that he was, is, and forever will be (because of his music) like the "immortal beloved" to so many people in the world... 🎼 🎶🎹🎻🎵
@@bbwnpat Yes, he is "my" immortal beloved 😅
Спасибо!!!!!... Гениально!!!... Лучшего исполнения Патетической мне не приходилось слышать!!!
Думаю, что если бы сам АВТОР мог услышать это исполнение, остался бы очень ДОВОЛЕН !
БРАВО, МАЭСТРО!
自分のレベルアップの為に聞いています。７０才になる女性ですが老化防止に極力毎日、2時間の練習をして暗譜に挑戦中。Ashkenazyの「悲愴」感動しました〜
素晴らしいですね‼️私も来年70才になります。子どものころ10年間ピアノを習っていましたが、情けないことに今は多分ネコ踏んじゃったくらいしか弾けないとおもいます。聴く専門です。頑張って暗譜してください。応援していますね🎵‼️🙇
Очень эмоционально, темпераменто, страстно..Динамика то, что надо, отличный исполнитель, Браво!
Мне вот эта интерпретация больше понравилась th-cam.com/video/5ecC-gf0Z98/w-d-xo.html
@@waldektrill680
Спасибо большое! Намного чище. Не могу слышать, когда с ритма сбиваются.
Вот тут лучше всех - начинается с патетической, но не одним куском.
На мой взгляд,это -лучшее исполнение!
Two of my favorite interpreters of Beethoven, Wilhelm Kempf and Vladimir Ashkenazy. There are a great many fine musicians today globally but these two are my favorites.
I also like Maria João Pires' interpretations. She introduces a delicacy and vulnerability within the pieces.
@@intellectualesemv True enough. Then again I am 70 so those are the two I grew up with. It's the same with Mozart's concertos. Growing up it was Alfred Brendl. Today I have to admit that Mitsuko Uchida brings such warmth and sensitivity to them. I still have a soft spot for Herr Brendl though.
Thank you Maestro Ashkenazy and Ludwig Van Beethoven - a sonata celestial in Its creation and in this performance.
I think he is one of the best pianist, he comunicates his deep feeling: as joy, tender, love, effort. I love his deeply art.
In questa sonata sembra che l’autore chieda all’interprete: rendimi
libero, Ashkenazy liberando
dalle tenebre dell’animo quel fuoco d’amore contenuto nella sonata e mai acceso,
è ora libero e consapevole di illuminare la sensibilità del pianeta per mezzo
di questa meravigliosa interpretazione
This video is a gift. I’ve been watching it over and over.
Oh, to watch this performance is to experience again how I remember learning Beethoven growing up, listening to these true great pianists, such was Ashkenazy, Barenboim, Brendel, Gilels and indeed the legendary Arthur Schnabel, all of whom played in a bygone era that cannot, must not, be forgotten. Thank you so much for bringing back the memories!
I agree but please add Wilhelm Kempff to your list of great pianists of that era.
Kamal Basu And Rubinstein!
This interpretation, suddenly make me felt this is a stormy. The chords are thunder and lightning , and then the melody line emerged just like heavy downfall... amazing!
Ashkenazy is always spot on, always massive in purpose and energy
約35年前にカセットに録音した曲、
今でも大切にしています🌟
40代でピアノ再開し、ベートーヴェンを弾きます、きっと⭐
This is the Beethoven Sonata 8 Opus 13 that I learned and is my most favorite!🎹🎹
素晴らしい動画を配信して頂き感謝致します🎶 アシュケナ―ジさんのベート―ヴェン、30年前、沖縄のコンサートで聴いて以来、この動画で、涙😭が止まりません🎶🌊
現在、85歳似なられるそうですが、この年齢でしか出せない燻し銀の様な芳醇な卓越した演奏に、希望をたくし音源を残して欲しと思います🎶🎹💖
アシュケナ―ジさんに、神様の愛と、祝福が、沢山、降り注ぎます様、お祈り致します🎶🎹💖💖
やはり、今世紀最高のピアニストと改めて思いました。
Great pianist! He is capable of playing Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven with the best. A truly professional musician!
...and Tchaikovsky!
Очень чувственное исполнение Браво!!!
One of the best piano sonatas of Beethoven beautifully played.
A magnificent work of Beethoven and masterly performed by this pianist.
th-cam.com/video/5ecC-gf0Z98/w-d-xo.html
At this particular time in his illustrious career Ashkenazy pursued Beethoven works with great zeal and commitment. I believe he felt there was much he had yet to reveal interpretively in this repertoire; largely because he was so steeped in Russian culture under the Soviets, which in turn restricted his vision and quest for universality in music.
Ashkenazys Beethoven was of course always technically superb, however it grew in stature and depth all through the 1970s and 80s with fine accounts of the piano concerti and complete sonatas.
A remarkable artist with fierce integrity and humility.
This is probably the highest quality youtube comment I've ever read!
Nick Lewis There are a few out there. Most often about music or art. Hardly ever about politics or sports.
But he plays this like a Russian would...the excessive rubato and sostenuto walk all over the piece's process.
Todo el mundo es conocedor de la enorme ignorancia musical que se extendía por toda la Unión Soviética, gente incapaz de profundizar en el análisis y conocimiento de la música de Beethoven. Por suerte se acercó al mundo anglosajón que le abrió nuevas perspectivas que seguro nunca hubiera podido ni imaginar. Cuando la ignorancia de otras culturas se expresa a través de tópicos y prejuicios surgen comentarios como este, en los que la mezcla de los condicionamientos políticos con los artísticos revelan más los propios condicionamientos del oyente que los que pueda tener el artista.

Incredible recording. Sounds like I could hear the vibration of the wires and sound board. This is the sound when I listen to my friend playing his piano.
Слушаю одно за другим исполнентя "патетической" - не для того, чтобы выяснить, кто лучше. Просто познакомиться с еще одним пониманием. И это очень обогащает жизнь
A brilliant composer! And a brilliant interpretation by Ashkenazy! It grips me everytime!
Прекрасное исполнение. Браво!!! Бетховен - самый любимый, мощный и прекрасный.
¡DE ACUERDO!
Tengo especial apego a la Sonata nº 8, compuesta antes de su treintena y editada bajo el mote de "Pathétique", por apuntar el dolor que origina parejo alumbramiento. Desde la introducción, el grave marca la impronta de toda la sonata; cuyos silencios postreros contienen un poder expresivo que, a modo de voz en el dolor callada, realzan el tono inicial hasta encarnar la tristeza misma. Al decir de Swafford, «jamás se había escuchado un grave más grave en música que aquel que abre esta obra sobre la melancolía, la resignación y el desafío». En la interpretación lúcida de Ashkenazy, al modo de la llama que alumbra la oculta morada y la dispone al encuentro, sin mayor tregua ni turbación alguna y la deja poblar por un placer doliente. Paradoja del amor cuya inmediatez confunde pasión y dolor e impregna los seres y las cosas. Traza que el tiempo restituye en recuerdo ardiente.

pedro a. cantero : Espléndido comentario
Sus reflexiones estarán muy presentes en los gratos momentos en los que escuche estas bellas interpretaciones.Gracias!
Yop. Vasewquo, licbzigc!
Espléndido.
The thing that gets me the highest is the absolute singleness of purpose, the being in the moment. He' not even thinking of the next note, only the perfection of this one. Immersed in beauty, this becomes a prayer.
Oh, yes!
Then he is doing his job well. You've been captured under his spell, enthralled with each moment.
However, I can assure you that Vladimir - like all musicians - is continually thinking ahead to the following notes. Failure to do so, would result in a loss of continuity which would break that spell. In fact, a pianist's fingers are often positioned ahead to the next keys, while the audience is still savoring the current notes.
While enjoying such performances, we like to believe that our thoughts are directly tied to the artist's, but that is just a masterfully created illusion.
@@marianneoelund2940 The swan walks around in a snug state because it moves its legs constantly under the water.
A prayer to whom?
He seems to be playing this for Beethoven to him in honor of him. It has so much feeling behind his notes and his body that he is immersed in the psyche of what he feels Beethoven was in and had lived. So impressed as I have not heard of this man, having a limited exposure to classical music. Thank you You Tube for continuing these works of art for the people and Allegro films for presenting it.
Couldn't agree more!!!
I agree. He embodies the emotional makeup of Beethoven, which so many forget when they play him.
La buona musica ha il potere di trasportare l'essere umano (e non solo ) su stati vibratori elevatissimi! Grazie al genio Beethoven e superba l'interpretazione di Ashkenazy.
This is the absolute best interpretation of one of the greatest sonatas ever written. Goosebumps! Coming out of my chair as I listen.
You should listen to Walter Klien.

Inspiring performance. Just beautiful.
Bravo. Pianista suona con passione. Grazie. Maestro
A master of dynamics and drama within the music. He tells a new story with old music. Nice. Thanks.
My mother was just talking about him ..She told me to listen to him play ..so I've found him on You Tube 😁
I wish my mother or family even know Beethoven

You are indeed doubly blessed!
Though Ashkenazy's continuous rhythmic quirks and manipulations can sometimes get on ones nerves - his performances are always inspired and full of spirituality. And in truth, even his constant tempo changes can be hypnotizing. These rhythmic gestures always are in the service of bringing out his well studied phrasing of these Beethoven works. I would say he is truly a masterful Beethoven interpreter.
Beethoven, the best musician of the world.
Absolutely
I've just started learning this piece, and I love the sound of this piano and how he played this piece.
Me too!
Wonderful live performance of Vladimir Ashkenazy. Fabulous magical interpretation and playing.
Really love this rendition of Pathetique Sonata.
Man that's good playing. Great to be able to watch these old obscure historic piano videos.
Блестяще! Лучшего исполнения я не встречал. И ещё... это публика. Какая культура восприятия!
С первого раза полюбила эту версию.Лучше всех!!!
No words to describe my feelings. Bravissimo Vladimir!
Passionate,.dynamic and delicate.I used to love Kemp and Horowitz.
Now i'm a fan of Askenazi.
He deserves yor aplause. Totally.

I saw this said 2016 and I thought how can Ashkenazy still be so young. I saw him perform for the Louisville Orchestra many years ago. He became a conductor later. Then I scrolled down and saw this is from 1972. Now it all makes sense. His performance for us was one of the greatest I ever saw. This rendition of my favorite piece is magnificent.
Nostalgia for me. In my dorm there was a piano, and a couple of people used to practice this piece in there all the time (they were pretty good for students). U of Chicago, 1967-69. Also Mozart's Turkish Rondo.
I love how Ashkenazy expresses this piece. What a performance! There's something about this piano though. Maybe it's the recording, but I wonder if it was bumped a little hard when they brought onto that stage? Nah, I think it's the recording quality. I wish I could have been there.
Эмоционально ,блестяще !!!! Браво !!!!! Браво !!!!!
The dynamics displayed! Beethoven would have been so proud.
Una interpretazione molto vicina a Beethoven e ai suoi pensieri. Bei colori e tanta Musica! Tanti auguri a Beethoven❣️ e complimenti ad Ashkenazy! Grazie 🙏
His rendition of the 2nd movement inspired my own approach to the piece. What a valuable interpretation.
My mother played this often when I was a child and I've always loved it.
Your mother? Wow! How lucky!
My mother was a concert pianist and she played this when I was young. It is my favorite! What a genius performance this is. I listen to it often.
@@donnagarcia1478 what is her name?
@@AsrielKujo My mom was Eileen Sanders. She performed in Town Hall and Carnegie Halls in NYC. She was a child prodigy and could recall so many great works many years later. Amazing.
@@donnagarcia1478 Wonderful anecdote Donna .🌷
My parents had an LP of Sviatoslav Richter playing this sonata and I fell in love with it as a kid. Played it about 50 years ago..maybe time to ressurect it. ❤️
?!
Such an emotional performance. There is a feeling that he himself composed this music.
So enchanting ... I felt as if I were listening in on a conversation
こんなステキなベートーベンは初めてです。素晴らしいの一言です。感動しました✨
昔も今もアシュケナージが一番好き
BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
This is the best performance I’ve heard for this piece.
Cette Sonate est magnifiquement jouée !
Speak English not French please
I'm currently learning the first movement, and I'm in shock. HOW??? How can he play it so fast? My left hand will have to spasm to play that fast! How are the leaps so accurate and the triplets so crisp?
Edit: also, how is he so focused he remembers every chord? I have troubles remaining focused when i practice.
Actually, his playing is not fast.
It’s faster than I played it.
My left arm aches watching this. The tremolo killed me.
gotta do more practice! everyone feels the same at first
He is a genius, that's the answer.
Go ahead, be patient, trust in yourself
I listen to this interpretation everyday. More than the sonata itself- I’m working on mastering the performance. Every nuance. BRAVO!!!
Очень интересное "прочтение" партитуры с акцентированием ритмом и уровнем звука, - соната становится действительно Патетической. И при этом воспринимается как художественный "рассказ" (если позволительна такая метафора).
Është kënaqësi kur dëgjon interpretimin virtuoz të këtij talenti! Përshëndetje nga një violiniste nga Shqipëria!

They could have done better than a cinder block wall behind him. Like purple velvet curtains for example. He takes his time and probably plays it the way Beethoven meant for it to be played - not as a show off tune, but as a deeply emotional one. The BEST.
Cada um deles mostra a Paixão de sua alma! Beethoven entende cada interpretação...🧚🏼♂️🌟🌦🔥
What a powerful piece. I listened to this piece for hours over and over when I was 11
Me too! At about the same age! Wow.
Amazing performance indeed!
Breathtaking interpretation!; one of the greatest pianists!; Happy retirement, well deserved!!
MAGNIFIC, jo no soc una entesa però m'apassiona la musica i sobretot aquesta, plena de sentiment que arriba al fons de l'anima
I'm listening to this version 2 minutes in and already I feel like my body is tingling with some strange sensation. The dynamics are so beautiful.
I hope I can be good enough to play this piece one day as it is one of my favourite pieces
Impressed !! It's surprising that the audience wasn't so surprised even though it was this much performance.
Wunderbar. Qué talento. Sólo los genios pueden tocar música con tanta virtuosidad. Gracias Vladimir.
Exacto. Wunderbar
this is my favorite classical song since i first heard it at 16, 30 odd years later it still is. ive never heard it played this fast though WOW!!
ycr424 listen to Valentina Lisitsa play it. Even faster I think.
Valentina and Gould..... not that speed matters. All three are gorgeous interpretations. God bless TH-cam!
Song?
One of the most extraordinary versions played with extraordinary sensibility with exceptional touch of his hands. Nice meeting you Vladimir Ashkenazy !
BRAVO OOO. ..! ! !

Vladimir is wonderful.
