    I just woke up and did not expect for this video to get the amount of attention it did... Thank you for watching everyone. I enjoyed Yunchan's performance a lot as you can tell. And I truly do believe that he will win the competition after last night's performance. Hence, the title of the video is my prediction hahaha. It's only a matter of hours before we find out! He's only 18 years old and capable of producing such breathtaking tonal qualities. This competition brings in pianists with incredible abilities. However, not many have given me the impression to watch them perform in person. Yunchan did just that for me with his performance of my favorite piano concerto. I could go on for days about how much I enjoyed his playing. And I'm glad to see so many of you all agreeing in the comments hahaha! :D

    I had the great good fortune to see him perform Rach 3 for his NY Philharmonic debut with James Gaffigan last week. Extraordinary! And he took the 3rd movement EVEN FASTER!!! NYC audiences rock and are loud, enthusiastic, and appreciative. After two encores and about five long bows he came out from backstage and was crying. After a quick bow, he went over to the concertmaster and asked her to walk off stage with him, effectively ending the concert. Very touching end to an historical moment in classical music.

    I particularly liked how Yunchan paid attention to the conductor and the orchestra rather than performing on his own, which led to a wholesome performance. He is not only talented but also very humble. He wasn't trying to show off to win the competition. Rather, he wanted to deliver the soul and inspiration of the composers centruries apart as best as he could, to the audience.

    This has long been my favorite piano concerto. I've heard it by many pianists both live and recorded over the decades. But never, ever have I been so moved by a performance. I had goosebumps from the first movement through the vibrant finale. Such nuance! Such power! Such an emotional range! And when he finished, I actually cheered and had tears in my eyes. That has never happened to me in my long life. It was a sensational performance by a very young man with a remarkable career ahead of him.

    Here I am again, listening and weeping and getting those 'chills' again. Anciently, those electrical chills/goose bumps were called "horripilations." These horripilations were thought of as the soul's way of recognizing (confirming) the fact that one is in the presence of something extraordinary that was happening. In Indian these chills were called having a "samadhi" or experience of ecstasy. Being a direct experience of the Truth its self (above names or forms). Blessings on all you love. moi

    In my 69 years that is the most impressive performance of Rach-3. He had it all energy, timing, space, unbelievable tempos, beautiful melodic lines. Voicing God! Third time opening unison theme occurred he emphasized the tenor voice, who does that, continual surprises and only 18 SPEECHLESS !!

      수많은 참가자들을 위해 똑같은 곡을 수십 번 지휘하며 그녀는 대번에 연주자의 실력을 알아 봤을 겁니다. 그녀는 심사위원 최종 결정자입니다. 예를 들어 10명의 심사위원들이 5 대 5 로 결과가 나왔을 경우, 그녀의 결정권이 우승자를 가리게 돼죠.
      윤찬군의 경우는 그녀가 참여하지 않았어도 다른 심사위원들이 임군을 우승자로 결정했다고 했습니다.

    Lim YunChan played this Arirang song in New York after winning Van Cliburn Competition. Arirang is most Korean’s favorite song and contains the emotions of Korean culture so beautifully. This performance makes me realise once again that the sound made by the performer is the sound of the soul. I hope that this resonance will deepen and expand as time goes by. I want to protect him so that the pure passion he has kept and built up will be continued. His last smile is sweet, warm, and full of charms:)

    Thank you for your channel. I've not experienced this before. I could be wrong. But Yunchan went out there and owned this piece. And Marin knew it. The orchestra knew it. The audience was in shock. And I likewise just knew that something had happened. No use trying to analyse or predict. It simply was. The jury has no option neither excuse. A young man for this decade. (And I too have seen Horovitz ( London 1982)!). Phenomena etc.

    Yunchan Lim was born to play the Rach 3rd.
    Total and absolute control of technical aspects, sublime touch during melodic episodes and bone-crunching control of technique to "sail above the orchestra" with the focus on Rachmaninov's thematic content.
    I have always loved Vladimir Horowitz performance of this concerto.
    Yunchan's performance is "a young version of Vladimir's mastery."
