1:00:50 THOSE JUMPS ARE INSANE

It's great. Sending you a big thank you. It is a very easy to understand and helpful practice for beginners!! It was especially easy to understand how to use the fingers and how to put the notes together. I practice while watching this video, Thank you!!

played better than khatia 🫢

" I just put the f sharp somewhere else, it doesn't really matter." No ma'am, it doesn't. Why would it? Small hand people want to play too! lol

You're SOOO good!!! 💕💕❤❤💕💕

Great video - this was the piece that kindled my interest in Classical Music and I've heard it hundred of times but still learned a lot by watching this.

I'm still working on the first note, but one day if I am not too old will figure this out.

El mejor? Williams Kapell

An academic ...again....GO LISTEN to YUNCHAN LIM play this....yours is academically boring friend....musically stultifying and un-convincing Sorry

M° Federico: I prefere the tutorial of Kim Jong Il !

Dear Irene Exercising this piece was my childhood fixation. I don't have your study, schooling and expertise behind me... I may never even be able to play Mephisto well, but I thank you for this magnificent video of yours. It is very encouraging to discover that some of the practice methods you recommend, to get around some difficulties, are exactly what I think they are. I live in Florence, I hope I can hear you here, at the Verdi theatre or at the Teatro del Maggio. Best wishes, and thank you. Francesco Giannoni

Amazing master class!,, thank you so much for posting 😊

Sup guys!

Bravo 🙏🥰🥰✌️✌️🥰🥰☀️☀️✌️✌️😘😘🙏🙏🙏🙏

Quality content! Saved for later

The answer you say about "when I don't understand music (funny you mention Bartok and Mahler, lol 😂 I sometimes think this about Glenn Gould and his thoughts on Schoenberg) you try to understand why that is and keep your mind limber". Really like that and makes me think I have hope lol 😂

Amazing job! Number 3 is a personal favorite of mine and it's hard to find one I like after being "ruined" by Radu Lupu. I think you're playing was great. I loved the slight ritardando you did while getting staccato in one variation. That small detail was something I really enjoyed and made me start to get out of my "Lupu" perspective and appreciate your performance. Number 4 is a virtuosic masterpiece and you played the absolute heck out of it. Bravo! Can't believe this is a live recording after hearing it played so well!! Seriously awesome job!!!

teach winter wind pls😅

Thanks for your advice! Did you you make a deal too with devil? Fantastic how you play😳

I had played the First Mephisto Waltz. It is likely one of the best programmatic pieces by Liszt of a dreadful scale. Here is my take on what I think the story portrays in the waltz's coda......My imagination... "Then, everybody does a wild waltz dance for the last time in place, starting slow, and then fast as the grand finale---the nightingales, Faust's seducee, Marguerite, the cavern spirits, and the party-goers, all participate. It is now a full bacchanal-like atmosphere---Mephisto is now like Paganini--every explosive up-and-down bowing, spiccato runs, double stopping--is like a fireworks display to them. On the Bb minor/Db chord, Mephisto signals a big pillar of hellish fire going up and down, pleasing the partyers, and then, on the last octave run, Mephisto signals the partyers to raise their glasses, drink until the glasses are dry, and then they all fall down dead drunk in supine position--as that devil-violinist does his crash-out on the violin with a snarky smile!"

When I just came here(right) now Its 11:11 at the clock and the number of thumbs-up is 666

thank you so much

fantastic

THANK YOU

number 4 is a true masterpiece (as all 8 are). here are my 5 impromptus in the style of Schubert's first 4: ua-cam.com/play/PLYUhuuvIrJm1cBxcbTuQO1GgPCfkptQTt.html

Incredible!

She's so cute and a very fine pianist, and she speaks English so well - what a performance!

Bravooooo❤❤

you are simply amazing Irene. I strive to attain the mastery you have of the piano

What an amazing piano articulation!

Wonderful performance and teaching! Looking forward to more from you!

Excellent presentation, I'm relearning this wonderful work - incorporating some of the elements in the Liszt/Busoni edition

Could you do a tutorial on liszt's mephisto waltz no.4 or maybe rachmaninoff's op.33 no.4? This video helped me a ton in practicing the technique for this waltz, so im sure any further workshops you will record will be super helpful to us!

Very simply: you are moving to much and that affect your playing in negative way. You can not move so much at piano and play this piece... Move less body and make more music. Your playing is sterile, and a lot of hand movement so you giving false picture that you want to show hand acrobatic but in FACT you cant play technically this composition. Its to much for you. So you want to soften that FACT by moving to much.

Yeah!!! Bravo!!! Hats off to anyone that can play this bitch well and you do!

What a great performance! Beautiful sound. Bravo!

Hi Irene, great video! I'm learning the Mephisto right now, so one question about that: I've noticed (youtube 25% of the speed) the majority of pianists play the 'leaps of death' jumping of a thumb to either 1-5 or 1-4 octave, there are however some that play (like yourself) from second finger to the octave. Did you try to practise both when you started? If so, why did you decide to go 2 - octave? I'm currently practising both and thumb seems to be better for hand position on an octave but awkward to hit the first note and second finger is the reverse of that. And by the way have you heard Katsaris play these jumps? He's a world record holder, playing the left hand with two hands at this speed (around 220) seems impossible. Then there's Horowitz, the ever-so-idiosincratic gentleman with an over-sized bow-tie who doesn't give a sh*t about anybody and plays at 118 and is the slowest of all time. 🤣 So, all in all a lot of fun with this piece!

Importanti le caratteristiche comunicative dell'artista ...Irene Kim fantastica in tutto

Ad esempio Carnaval e Quadri di una esposizione o per maggiore accessibilita' Papillons

Continuo a pensare che altre iniziative simili avrebbero un grande successo

Hier zal ze ooit zo melancholisch op terug denken. De puurheid, ......

Bravissima e ottima iniziativa da ripetere per altre composizioni/esecuzioni
