This is my favourite piece by chopin . Every bar is like screaming “CHOPIN” . This is definitely a piece to really know chopin composition style
Which is funny because he wrote this at twenty when he had pretty much just found his matured “unique voice”
You are so right. It doesn't have the structural focus of his 'mature' works, but every part is essential Chopin. It is one of his greatest Polonaises, and the Andante Spianato is one of his most beautiful Nocturnes. How breathtaking must it have sounded when he debuted it?
Mutual. The piece flows in my mind and the joy unyielding.
@@chriscarson2547 The debut didn't go well, I read in his biography. It was quite rough, I think it was largely due to his playing on the day rather than the piece itself. In fact it was one of his last concerts he did in a large public setting, with large audience etc. (Probably partially due to the unfavorable reaction he got from the public). Chopin always preferred playing to smaller audiences, in more intimate settings where he had more potential to touch people emotionally with his playing. However, I agree this is definitely one of my favorite Chopin pieces.

One of the pieces I dream of playing - discovered watching “The pianist”
I don't remember the exact scene you are referencing but WOW is that movie phenomenal! The power that music has to convey emotion and a journey is truly astounding!
Kansas Viking this song comes two times in the movie...
The first when he is in the house and then he sits on the piano and imagine this music in his head but dont play the piano... its in the middle of the movie...
The second is when the movie ends and he plays with the orchestra...
I really like that movie, it got me into classical music somehow. The movie was shown in my grade 10 history class.
That movie was life-changing for me. I learned the first Ballade because of it, which has become my favorite piece ever. That movie also motivated me originally learning this as well haha
The Pianist made me discover and become addicted to this piece. I dream of playing it someday. Of course, performed perfectly by Mr. Wright!
World-class interpretation. Impeccable control. Well done, Josh!
What a beast Chopin must have been. Not only able to play it but write it in the first place.
My goodness! So FLUENT!
thank you so much!
@@joshwrightpiano it's clear you've worked so hard to perfect the flow of this piece. You've created a very lyrical and refreshing tempo. I'm used to a slightly slower and more 'ponderous' style this piece is typically played in.
My favourite chopin piece of all time so far.

Bro Josh, the way you translated those notes was excellent, you took enough time to let this piece flow, many thanks for the wonderful performance.
Blessings,,,
Sam ✌🏻🎵
Thank you so much Sam!
I started playing the piano about two years ago and I watched a video of yours. Back then i had almost no music knowledge and mistakenly thought “looks pretty easy to me”. After these two years I’ve developed a much better understanding of the difficulties of piano, and I just have to say wow! A great performance! I especially loved the Scherzo No. 2!

I have been playing piano for 8 years and struggle with developing the correct touch on the keys. Watching your performances fascinates me. Your hand strength as well as delicate touch on the keys is enjoyable to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Its wonderful discovering new pieces you never heard before.
Mature and masterful technique and musicallity!
This is wonderful Josh, thank you. Your playing never fails to inspire.
I was about to search this piece in YT but saw your notification and then came directly towards here
awesome! Crazy timing
This was really beautiful. I really like the part at 3:40
It's because he used a super power there. He just made magic!
That kind of moment is when a human being inputs all emotion and advanced cognition together and is able to express freely a piece of his soul
Wow! That was a splendid interpretation of this piece. I loved it so much.
I really like this version, I can listen very clearly and not rush like another pianist want to show how fast they can play, I’m really enjoy 😃
extraordinary!!
Absolutely wonderful. Mr Chopin could not only play it but he wrote it.
Bravo!
I love it ☝🏼.
I am a great fan of Josh's playing and ProPractice programs. His playing of this very challenging piece is tremendous. I really enjoyed it. Glad it is on You Tube.
A true master in this piece! BRAVO!
I forgot it was in 2 parts. I always heard Part 1 and 2 played back to back
It would be amazing for this to be on propractice
In the works :) Maybe another week or two and it'll be up!
Excellently brilliant. My eyeballs were glued and my heart was fluttering.
One of the 700 wonders of piano literature very capably performed. Bravo!!
Josh - Very proud of you on this accomplishment! I believe you head straight toward "This is going to be difficult and then you MASTER it!!!" Enjoyed every moment :)
Wait, you played this AND the scherzo and andante spianato at the same concert? You are superhuman.
Not like many other pianists who just learn and play and repeat this piece like AI robots, your interpretation was full of concept and musical points. Well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow.. Amazing playing of an amazing piece! Well done, thanks for sharing
Bravo Dr. Wright! I hope to play this at some point in my career as well!
Turn the black keys to the white keys
#linglinginsurance
Josh, that was beautiful. Exquisite technic
I like this interpretation!
It's just so smoothly performed that I wondered if it were pre-recorded when I listened the first time.
Merveilleuse interprétation qui aurait plu à Frédéric Chopin. Bravo Monsieur.... une pianiste qui étudie ces belles pages.
Josh, very beautifully done in E-flat major (my favorite), even with the Baldwin.
Josh - wonderful man, just wonderful.
The Pianist brought me to this song. That one scene where the protagonist imagines himself playing the song while hiding in an apartment, and then again in the ending credits.
Me too!
Awesome mate 🇦🇺
I'm really glad for this upload. You did a great performance, and thank goodness it was well recorded!
Very very very good apresentation. I like so much this Polonaise. Congratulations!
My master ❤️
No Andante Spianato!? :(
Casey Sheehan I have another video on TH-cam of that. Had a small pause I wasn’t happy with so didn’t want to include it here. I may upload the whole concert in a future video
@@joshwrightpiano Ah I see, I'll go have a listen. Well done on the Grande Polonaise Brilliante! You always play with so much emotion and such a beautiful sound! Thank you for all you you, you keep me inspired with every video. I appreciate you :)
Wow😢 played soooooo beautifully. Good job dr Josh!!!!
It's sounds great on the 'beat up old Baldwin'. Chopin seems to sound good on pianos that are a touch too bright. There was someone playing Chopin's own Erard piano (with the smaller than modern standard keys), it was a bit too bright also, even a bit tiny, but it sounded great for his music.
2:45 when is the pro practice video for vibrato on piano coming out
0:22
Großartige!!!! Ich gratuliere dir!
Wonderful performance and so lovely to watch :D
I wish chopin had lived longer.
Wonderful Josh! Wondering how many Chopin pieces you had memorized for your concert in El Paso? I cant memorize!!
Honestly speaking it is not as good as other Master versions overall, but there are some places that sound really amazing. Impressing work.
Excellent!!! I love your style!!
A wonderful Chopin piece very well played josh. Technically a very very difficult piece to play and a tad harder than the WR polka I like to play. 😂
It is amazing what you can play with a bit of perseverance and I would dearly love to play this, but I think it’s probably out of my capabilities. 😂😩
Incredible.
1:08
WOW1 WOW wonderful...
AMAZING!!!!!!
Bravo! 👏👏👏👏🥰😘😘
beautiful!
Great playing
Well played Josh! Wish you would've included the Andante Spianato though. Also, how do think this piece's difficulty compares to the ballades?
Thanks Charley! I think musically this is much easier than the Ballades. Technically it's probably on par with them for the most part, except for the codas of the Ballades which are pretty tricky
Good playing, sir! : D
Amazing ♡
Really wonderfull
amazing
Gosh dammit! he's good!!
I hear alot of Horowitz in your left hand. Right hand would need to have more extremes in p and ff and more confident in pointing out melodies, maybe its the piano tho. This was a masterful performance!
What do you mean a lot of Horowitz?
Please can I upload a video of how I play the piano so that you assess my playing?
Hi Josh, love your videos as always. I was wondering if technique development would be harder/less efficient on a baby grand piano instead of a full grand. Thank you!
2:44 did he just try a vibrato on the piano?
♥️♥️♥️
But there was a little bit of orchestration in this piece right???
Where can you get the sheet music arranged this way for piano?
It's free on IMSLP.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
❤ U
👍👍
i tried to pracice and i preformed it to my classemates
😍
It is a bit stretch for the world class. He struggles in the passages that are supposed to be light and fast. He obviously labors a lot playing this piece. I am not sure he could make it through the first round of the Chopin competition. It is a tough business. You’ve got to start at 3 or 4 and be exceptionally gifted. Certainly he’s got skills and could be an excellent teacher.
I thought the first part is played by the orchestra...
This piece is often played as a solo piece as the orchestra doesn't do much apart from that introduction.
@@charleyfeng2054 yh I do wish Chopin could've put more effort for the Orchestra sections of his concertos. Always the piano is overpowering, where as looking at something like a Rachmaninoff or Mozart piano concerto then you can really see the amazing possibilities of good orchestration and the constant relationship with the piano. They do way more than just accompany the piano.
@@charleyfeng2054 right...it's interesting to study the evolution and variety of this piece and it's different renditions/combinations (separate parts being performed, then later combined, the solo version, and orchestral version)
Oiiii michel
The Polonaise rhythm is not quite right.
very good. but i think Hoffmann did the best recording of this.
You're amazing. I would have liked it better if you'd put just a tiny little bit more of your own emotions in it. You are far more then an executor. thank you!
why does this piano sound like a harpsichord
You played it better than kate liu who won 2nd prize at 2015 chopin competition, u definitely deserved to be at the final stage but tension got you there
Her performance is miles better. No disrespect to Josh.
😂😆😆😆😆😆
Great playing, but in my opinion you played it a bit too fast. Thanks for sharing.
Bland and flat, technicality with no emotional connectiuon to the music
Let's see you play it
It’s the piano. If he was given a better piano, the music would have sounded much better. I think Josh killed it with what he had!
Show us your version of it please
