fineartist - I still can't believe how Bernstein could extract the very best out of an orchestra. The only conductor that can come close nowadays is Valery Giergev. He's cut from a different cloth, but somehow he they both find ways to get these amazing musicians inspired to make these masterful performances. He's not the best pianist, but the integration with the orchestra takes my breath away.
Lenny was a true musical Renaissance man. He was a giant! I think his greatest gift to the world was that he had such love of music and was always so eager to share it. I've watched so much music on TH-cam during the last several years (after I discovered how much classical music it has!), and there's no other conductor who literally looks as joyful as Lenny does when he's conducting (not every minute, of course).
Those that can't do teach. Bernstein is known for his conducting. Little abovd Average in almost everything else . Glad he picked this concerto. One of mozarts hidden gems with romanticism before Beethoven
"If I absolutely had to name my all time favorite piece of music, I think I would vote for the andante of mozart's piano concerto No. 17" Leonard Bernstein 1959.
Sublime.He Was also good in Mozart.Absolutely amazing.I came originally from Bavaria.During his last years He made different recordings at some beautiful churches in my beautiful country.Mostly Mozart and Haydn.Unforgettable.
The Piano Concerto No. 17 in G major, KV. 453, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, was written in 1784. The work is orchestrated for solo piano, flute, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, and strings. As is typical with concertos, it is in three movements: Allegro Andante in C major Allegretto - Presto According to the date that the composer himself noted on the score, the concerto was completed on April 12, 1784. The date of the premiere is uncertain. In one view, the work is said to have been premiered by Mozart's student Barbara Ployer on June 13, 1784, at a concert to which Mozart had invited Giovanni Paisiello to hear both her and his new compositions, including also his recently written Quintet in E flat for Piano and Winds. Afterwards, Ployer was joined by Mozart in a performance of the Sonata for Two Pianos, K. 448. Another possibility, advanced by Lorenz (2006, 314), is that Mozart did not wait over two months to premiere the work, but performed it in his concert with Regina Strinasacchi on 29 April 1784 at the Kärntnertortheater. As a general consensus for researchers, it can be said with relative certainty that the work premiered during the mid-to-late spring of 1784, following its completion. The finale is a variation movement whose theme was sung by Mozart's starling.
What a sublime performance of such a perfect composition! Such genius and beauty of musician and man occurs very rarely combined as it was in Mozart and Leonard Bernstein. We need to be more thankful for such phenomenons as they were----and for the Vienna Philharmonic too. What an orchestra! What conducting !!
What a lovely surprise to find this video online! This work has always been my very favorite among Mozart's piano concertos. I am grateful for the opportunity to see and hear this beautiful performance, in which Bernstein succeeds in establishing a sort of chamber-music relationship with the orchestra.
Fantastique Bernstein ! Non seulement chef d'orchestre, mais aussi un fameux pianiste ! Et qui sait diriger les Wiener Philharmoinker d'une main dès que sa partition pour piano lui permet d'avoir une main libre à son clavier, et montrer aux Viennois qu'ile peuvent l'adopter !
I knew, of course, that as a genial composer and conductor he played the piano but didn't know he in addition would make it as soloist. Great Bernstein!!
@@vicentemontequin4113 Bach was good and a genius. But I don't even think Bach was as talented as Mozart was. Yes Bach lived longer to create better fugues. It doesn't make him more talented. I'm saying from a natural talent perspective, it's hard not to pick mozart as #1
Fabuloso maestro e grande pianista,que infelizmente já cá não está,para partilhar connosco toda a sua arte.Desde criança me habituei a vê-lo,muito em especial no concerto de Ano Novo esperando pela sua presença nos espectáculos.Admirável o ensinamento que os meus Pais nos passaram.Como esperava-mos por esse dia.Obrigada mãe e pai por nos terem dado a oportunidade,de conhecermos tão valioso Mestre.Somos 4 filhos e a todos foi dada a oportunidade de apreender a ouvir o que de bom existe!!!!
A lot of "Haydnesque" surprises in this piece. Even his 16th. If I was at the premier of any of those and a composer, I would seriously be questioning my ability to compete!
A marvelous performance. One can hear that it is a dirigent who lead the orchestra from the piano. He create the concert together with the orchestra and make a totally. he is sencitive for the important role the orchestra has in Mozarts concertos. Many of Mozarts concertos is like made for leading from the piano. A very intelligent performance.
Magnificent!...🎹 I'm in Love..I can watch him graciously, effortlessly like a cloud & the Sun move his hands across the piano as if he isn't even touching the keys...🎁💞🎁...such intensity, feeling, e-motion, experience. He adds to and improves any piece as composer, Maestro. You can hear & feel Classical 🎶 alive.
@@prager5046 not a stupid statement at all. You can find genius in all of them. But this one? It's so good, Beethoven couldn't take anything from it. Lol
La música mozartina no tiene desperdicio, me llena espiritualmente. Refleja todo tipo de sentimientos hasta los más profundos. La apariencias engañan. Mozart aparentaría exteriormente una cosa pero interiormente era otra muy distinta( algo canta en mi oído......?)
Mozart, un genio que traducia en notas los sentimientos mas dificiles de describir... esta musica simplemente te transporta a un mundo diferente en donde puedes ser plenamente feliz
Buenísima interpretación. Que buena grabación. Una joya para guardar en mi estuche mi querido concierto 17 del gran Mozart. Estupenda orquesta y gran Bernstein ❤
It is said that the best Mozart's interpreter is Mitsuko Uchida; that she is the the perfect pianist for his masterpieces. Anyway, I love those interpretations 🎵🎵💚
I am trying to discover why mozart used so many half steps in pieces. For an example in this G major concerto he would use A # and then go down a half to B. I like the way it sounded.
Mozart is a crazy person, he was a genius and things sound nice when he does it but then when you go and analyse it it looks really weird and you break your brain trying to figure out how he did it :D
Yes he performed all his piano music and conducted at the same time, he also conducted his symphonies and operas. He also taught lessons in piano and composition as an extra job. And he was also know as the greatest improviser alive in his time. He could do it all.
@@brianwilliamsart He was the best composer in the world at the time and he also beat the greatest pianist at the time in a piano duel so I will go out on a limb that he was the best pianist In the world too! Oh he was also the best opera writer in the world, and best vocal writer in the world. His greatest talent was his photographic memory. That's what separated him from everyone.

God Bless you Mr. Bernstein, for sharing both your talent and the music.
This makes me want to live well.
Love K. 453!!! Thank you, Mozart! Thank you, Leonard!
One of the most beautiful and honest performances of this piece. Thank you for sharing. Few people can find the soul in all types of music like LB.

It doesn't get any better than this. Vienna plus Lenny... wow
One of the best pianist and a conductor Leonard Berstein.Fantastic Philarmonic.Bravo..Marie J Johnson.
The joy of music is entirely expressed in this performance.
This music absolutely beautiful and always be part of my life and Mr. Bernstein amazing musician ❤️
True love! Listen and Watch Lenny's love for Mozart
So fantastic musician Bernstein en amazing conducted, tank you very much merci beaucoup

Bernstein just made everything sound good.
It’s a monster of a piano. Bosendorfer Imperial, the distinct black base keys were a big clue.
I knew, of course, that as a genial composer and conductor he played the piano but didn't know he in addition would make it as soloist. Great Bernstein!!
Years ago, I was privileged to hear Bernstein perform Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. It was an experience that I shall never forget!
Perfect Music doesn’t exis-
"say no more"
One of the best versions that i found! I can not believe that this video has many dislikes.. :(
When watching a film about Bernstein I learned that he is so good with Mozart
Bernstein looks like Louis de Funes. He attracts people for his talent, comicality, clownery, charisma.
A wonderful human!
Mozart, the greatest genius of mankind
You're not far off. It was ridiculous how talented this man was
Along with Bach
@@vicentemontequin4113 Bach was good and a genius. But I don't even think Bach was as talented as Mozart was. Yes Bach lived longer to create better fugues. It doesn't make him more talented. I'm saying from a natural talent perspective, it's hard not to pick mozart as #1

Magnifique Bernstein, merci beaucoup c'est un souvenir très lointain, mais cela reste un beau souvenir
Mozart himself! bernsteun is a gift from G-d to us all!
Everyone makes this look so easy, especially from first chair violin 🎻 and the oboe player 🎫🎫🎫
He was a genius! Thank you.
When this originally premiered the audience must have been speechless!
A lot of "Haydnesque" surprises in this piece. Even his 16th. If I was at the premier of any of those and a composer, I would seriously be questioning my ability to compete!

El Concierto!!!!! Para piano y orquesta qué más me gusta del Maestro Mozart, toda una Genealidad de Armonias....

He was a far better pianist than I realized.
John Travena How could you not realize in the first instance the talent of Maestro Bernstein?
@@sarahjones-jf4pr You don't need to be a brilliant performer to be a great conductor. I'd never heard him perform except in his lectures.
@@johntravena119 he was also a great composer, nothing compared to Mozart but still very good
Un moment d’éternité ! Vive la musique ! Un bonheur si pur et si intense……

Brilliant, wunderbare Klarheit und Leichtigkeit -
DANKE für diese herzergreifende Musik und die einfühlsame Interpretation!
This guy is so freaking amazing!
It's my favourite piano-concert from Mozart.
I totally agree
And it's long been my own favorite among Mozart's piano concerti as well
Stupid statement....you could say one of my favorite....there are many other piano concertos by Mozart who are pure gold.
@@prager5046 not a stupid statement at all. You can find genius in all of them. But this one? It's so good, Beethoven couldn't take anything from it. Lol

Where have you been??!
Ever studied History?
Don’t be unkind
Actually his comment was five years ago. He probably knows more about Lenny than you do now 😂

Is this the awesome dude from the Phonology lecture series at Harvard?
Sorry to answer it 6 years later - but yes, he was that awesome dude.
Yep. Bernstein was classically trained at Harvard University
nice cadenza...
Some more info please, who, when, where?
Did Mozart ever perform his own piano concertos? And if so did he have someone else conduct?
Pretty much every one . . . and conducted while playing . . .
Yes he performed all his piano music and conducted at the same time, he also conducted his symphonies and operas.
He also taught lessons in piano and composition as an extra job.
And he was also know as the greatest improviser alive in his time.
