Merci, J'ai écouté beaucoup de fois ce concert, un des mes préférés, par différentes excellentes pianistes et differents orchestres mais cette interprétation de Sokolov est sans doute la meilleure .Une esperience magnifique .
I remember this concert - I was there! Sokolov and Dutoit didn't get along; they were barely looking at each other and didn't even shake hands after the concerto. There was definitely tension between the two, which translated into a very exciting performance! Also, the OSM musicians, who had some issues with Dutoit at the time, were visibly doing their best for Sokolov. That was obvious by looking at the orchestra. There was electricity in the air... As a result, the orchestral playing was particularly superb that evening. After the concert, I went to see Sokolov and talked to him. His favourite subject of conversation is to talk about pianos. He complained about the piano he just played on and, jokingly, told me to find some time to sneak in with an axe and to destroy it:))!
Thank you for this comment! This makes clear everything in this particular performance so much! Probably one of the reasons why Sokolov doesn't play with orchestra nowadays. Heard his interviews when he complained about conductors. Probably he needs more freedom and doesn't want to share the field of interpretation battle during recitals.
The more I listen the more I dislike Dutoit. Very ordinary conductor who doesn't live up to the giants like Sokolov or Argerich. Of course, this is my opinion, feel free to disagree.
@@eugenenizker9597 I don't particularly like Sokolov, but he played a very exciting Rach 2 live in Montreal. Anyway, that's just my personal opinion. As for Dutoit, he's very good in some music and extremely boring in other types of music. He's not a great conductor, but I wouldn't call him very ordinary. I heard him live do an amazing Rite of Spring (not his recording; that's not so good). A very ordinary conductor doesn't pull off a Rite of Spring like that, believe me.
Interesting stuff. There are two recordings of Sokolov playing Brahms Concerto No. 2 on UA-cam. One is with Jukka-Pekka Saraste who seems stiff and pompous and with him, Sokolov seems to constantly be fighting to get some air. The other is with Lu Jia and it sounds like a different piece of music. So smooth and enjoyable, the conductor checking on the pianist all the time to make some room. And funny thing about handshake as well. With Lu Jia, Sokolov literally jumped from his chair to greet him, while with the other guy he first bowed with the piano, and then simply thanked him coldly.
@alexeyziskin3012 out of curiosity, what don't you like about him? I didn't like him much until I'd heard a lot more of his recordings, but I was blown away by the shear volume of repertoire he has up his sleeve, and despite that, how thoughtful his interpretations generally are
He tries to make the opening chords sound like bells and he does'nt rush lyrical passages as most of todays pianists do. One of the very greatest interpretations.
I saw Sokolov playing this concerto live at the Accademia di Santa Cecilia in Rome in the 1990's. I still feel the shivers today at the thought. Truly amazing.
This is one deadly combination i think....Rachmaninoff and Sokolov. It's seriously one of the best recordings of this concerto. I think that Sokolov truly understands the weight that one needs to put while playing Rachmaninoff.
+Bruce Stoller Well, no wonder why this piece got so stuck in my subconscious. Sometimes i hum parts of this piece like a madman with a very great force. Undoubtedly, the profoundness of this music is deeper than a common consciousness.
Well said...this kind of Russian music is very distinctive and profound, and when we have Maestro like Sokolov playing it, it indeed is Russian soul expressed to its fullest.
Oh my god.. I've heard of this played by other top level pianist on UA-cam. But this.. especially the opening. So dramatic, so meaningful, so beautiful!! Sokolov is the living greatest pianist no doubt about it!!
Прекрасно!Какая чистота и благородство слышится мне в музыке С.В.Рахманинова. Как жаль, что звуками музыки нельзя отмыть наш грешный мир от грязи.Только собственную душу. Спасибо.Вам! 24.10.2020
I used to listen to a recording of this by Vladamir Askenazy over 45 years ago. Since then I have listened to many other interpretations all of which were very good. This rendition however is something else, I feel somehow priviledged to have heard it.
На кончике пера Мечтаю гения увековечить! Но вечность слушает Его! Кто смеет вечности пеперечить!? Присоединяюсь к ней , А имя вечности-= ИЗВЕЧНОСТЬ! Полет в ночи, где звезды не истают. И вечный ше пот звезд, И вечность Вечностью мечтает! Кружась, небесный хоровод, Лучами звездными играет! Хрустальный вторит перезвон,И всяк любуясь подпевает!
Neste preciso momento pensei e desejei sinceramente, dar a minha atenção muito especial, ouvindo simplesmente Grigory Sokolov ao piano, sendo-me indiferente o que fosse ouvir por ele executado, sem absolutamente nada seleccionado, porque sabia de antemão de que tudo pelo artista percutido no instrumento, seria de um nível e rigor qualitativo que não me desfraldava musicalmente falando, de que todos nós amantes destas maravilhosas coisas a viver dele e outros exigimos e amamos em Sokolov. Parabéns.
Смело. Очень отличается от исполнения автора произведения (есть на ютубе). Я бы струсила. Но Соколов делает эту гениальную вещь много современней. Это великое чудо, рояль, партитура, человек и каждый раз новое.
Соколов никогда не играет "привычно". И за его интерпретациями всегда огромный пласт серьёзной работы. Всякий раз на его концерте с изумлением думаешь: "Господи, да ведь я слышу эту музыку в первый раз!" Хотя слышишь её в сотый или тысячный. Вот почему, планируя поездку в Европу (а он сегодня больше нигде не выступает), я всегда смотрю на список его концертов. Если он играет всего в нескольких часах езды машиной или поездом - приходится перекраивать маршрут путешествия. А что делать?

Richter is much too heavy and ponderous. Sokolov gets the right balance of weight and airiness. For me Sokolov, Gieseking, Kapell, and Wild are unbeatable in this concerto.
Eugene Nizker Exactly. Musical performance ought to be more than a mere run-through by an automaton. I’ll take Sokolov warts and all any day. His performance reminds me somewhat of Gieseking’s reading of this work with Mengelberg, another desert island version of this concerto.
Eugene Nizker Glad you enjoyed Gieseking’s Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3. The version with Barbirolli is indeed amazing. And we weren’t the only one impressed by it. Rachmaninoff himself was in the audience for that performance, going backstage afterwards to praise Gieseking not only for the performance itself, but to give him his approval for having played it uncut and with the original version of the first movement’s cadenza. And maybe! You’re not the first to ask me if I’m related to the author of Il Cortegiano. I haven’t been able to trace my family tree that far back yet. ;)
Не могу не сказать,что лучше Бориса Березовского никто не играет Рахманинова! Ни у кого нет такой мощи,воли,благородной простоты и гармонии,не говоря уже о блистательной виртуозности.
I usually love Sokolov's playing, but somehow, this sounds so disjointed. Well, at least the 1st movement, so far. It's like they divided it into different sections, each with separate goals. (edit: Also, too much rubato. The orchestra and the piano keep sliding in and out of sync with each other, like a dislocated shoulder.)
I took a look at that most interesting performance that you mention. It isn't my new favorite, but it's very good! There's more chemistry between the soloist and the orchestra in that one, for sure.
I agree with you Hassan Abudu. Wich is your favorite performance of this concerto? I love the one with Grimaud -Abaddo and the Lucern Festival Orchestra

ЛЮБЛЮ МУЗЫКУ ГРИГОРИЯ СОКОЛОВА !!! ЭТО МОИ МИНУТЫ ИСТИННОГО СЧАСТЬЯ !!!

+Nikhil Jain After Rachmaninov did hypnotherapy he wrote this extroadinary concerto, he certainly got a lot off his chest in this work.

Ce muzica divina. Cea mai bună interpretare
Terrific. Excellent performance. With clarity and strength, Sokolov articulation is just perfect. He displays an exquisite sensitivity, too. 👌💎❤️

Legend... I`m so lucky guy knowing Grigory Sokolov.
U know him?
astounding depth, emotion, power, intelligence and maturity...genius...
I know nothing about piano, this is so beautiful beats my drum and bass
I love to hear that!
SOKOLOV THE BEST INTERPRETATION OF RACHMANINOFF!!!!
ბრავო!👏👏👏💖
Actualmente el mejor intérprete. Sin duda alguna.

SUPERB, MAGICAL , SUBLIME MORE AND MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU MAESTRO SOKOLOV FOR YOUR GIFT TO THE MANKIND.
Sincerely, Lena Booth
the first movement its just so well performed.
Very clear. Even though the recording isn't great I can hear piano details that I don't normally hear.
Super
Самое лучшее исполнение!!!

In this concerto richter is undoubtably the king.
You're absolutely right. Richter is the number one, but I think Sokolov does a very good job here.
Richter is much too heavy and ponderous. Sokolov gets the right balance of weight and airiness. For me Sokolov, Gieseking, Kapell, and Wild are unbeatable in this concerto.
Richter is more controlled. The tempi are very, very different. Hard to compare!
great
Bummmm!!!
Andre Watts and Zubin Mehta in 1988 is certainly an extraordinary version. And it's a real video as opposed to an audio with a photo.
Exciting certainly, though not without some surprising blemishes, especially in the final pages.
Eugene Nizker Exactly. Musical performance ought to be more than a mere run-through by an automaton. I’ll take Sokolov warts and all any day. His performance reminds me somewhat of Gieseking’s reading of this work with Mengelberg, another desert island version of this concerto.

No one performs the second movement better imo.
He plays more impressive than orcestra
I am agree ! And it is amazing!
Nobody plays the opening of this Concerto like Gina Bachauer.
2:22
Que pasa??? Porqué una imagen fija del pianista????
Не могу не сказать,что лучше Бориса Березовского никто не играет Рахманинова! Ни у кого нет такой мощи,воли,благородной простоты и гармонии,не говоря уже о блистательной виртуозности.
Это играет Владимир Ашкенази, а не Соколов!
Откуда инфа? По стилю на Ашкенази вообще не похоже.
At 7:00 I completely recognize Sokolov's touch
I usually love Sokolov's playing, but somehow, this sounds so disjointed. Well, at least the 1st movement, so far. It's like they divided it into different sections, each with separate goals.
(edit: Also, too much rubato. The orchestra and the piano keep sliding in and out of sync with each other, like a dislocated shoulder.)
You are right. I found this version to be poor in every way.
Yes, at the climax of [I] the ensemble goes seriously awry for a few bars. My favourite recording of this concerto is Volodos at the Proms in 1997.
I took a look at that most interesting performance that you mention. It isn't my new favorite, but it's very good! There's more chemistry between the soloist and the orchestra in that one, for sure.
I agree with you Hassan Abudu. Wich is your favorite performance of this concerto? I love the one with Grimaud -Abaddo and the Lucern Festival Orchestra
I love the recording of Rafael Orozco with de Waart. You can feel the orchestration and emotion deep in your soul.
