Such beauty and sonority in his tone. One of my favorite Brahms Intermezzi. Love all 3 in Op. 117. Brought tears to my eyes. Was like rediscovering an old and dear friend.
Too bad folks don’t know how to listen and appreciate live concert performances by letting the tone just hang there for a moment to dissipate naturally before clapping all over it.
Che meraviglia questo pianoforte 😍😍😍😍😍 è indescrivibile, un’emozione anche soltanto guardalo ❤️
sono d'accordo 👍👍👍
I love this piece and piano sound
Italian Feminine timbre is perfect for Brahms!
This sounds nice, but I actually think Brahms is such a masculine composer, I'd never think what you call "feminine timbre" (if there is such a thing) for Brahms. I'm partial to the Steinway sound. Bosendorfer to me is somewhat feminine -sounding, like the (pardoxically all-male) Vienna philharmonic. I like the muscular-urbane sound of Steinway. It's sweet and colorful, but muscular and "masculine" if you have to gender-ize it. I'm weird I guess in this respect, but for me Steinway is practically the definition of what a piano should sound like, neither too "woody" nor too metallic, just the right balance.
@@AnonYmous-ry2jn He is. This just sounds great like a Breath of Fresh Air. No one is denying Steinway’s GOAT status, I just think we all should hear more of the world. Bösendorfer is like the beautiful supermodel I don’t have feelings for. It sounds like it always has a Blanket on top. Steinway needs a new scale design, been stagnant for like 60 yrs, muddy bass you can’t play the blues and popular music in it, Shigeru Kawai sounds better for more repertoire.
@@hastensavoir7782 Funny, I was going to mention my enormous admiration for the Shigeru Kawai, but wanting to just write my comment and unable to recall the word "Shigeru" just left it out, thinking to add in an edit! The SK to me (tried one out at a dealer) struck me as an almost unnaturally user-friendly (i.e., almost to a fault) piano. Even when playing poorly, a gorgeous sound comes out. But the sound was to me very much in the Steinway vein. I think we're on the same page! I'm impressed how you can admire Fazioli and Bosendorfer the way you do, yet call Steinway the GOAT; even your Bosendorfer supermodel description, much how I feel. Steinway to me is that urbane Carnegie hall monster piano that I associate with Rubinstein, Horowitz, and more contemporary masters like Perahia, Zimerman, Barenboim, Ashkenazi.... It's the sound I expect at Carnegie, Chicago Symphony Center, or on a great classical recording. I want that exact balance of metallic and wood in the timbre, with all the colors. It may not be the best comparison, but hits the ears a bit like a beautifully patina'd bronze sculpture hits the eye. Kind of warm but crisp. That for me is the classic "concert piano" sound, ideal for all classical repertoire that neither wants to pretend it a 1785 Broadwood nor an 1835 Pleyel, but a self-consciously modern sound re-imagining the latent potentialities of music written before such an instrument existed. Steinway in a way is like a great museum bringing classic paintings in a new setting. The painting may have originally been at home in a palace or private home, but a great museum provides a great, some how classic and timeless "re-framing" that just seems to match, yet perfectly complement, every painting. That's what Steinway does for virtually all classical repertoire, like no other brand. (SK, it's own, Steinway-like, case though)!!
@@AnonYmous-ry2jnhow do you like M&H btw?
как-то банально играет. ну вот многие играют так и ничего особенного. хотелось бы изысканности какой-то нетривиальной.
