Николай Луганский - тот редкий гениальный пианист, который вычеркивает себя из цепочки «композитор-исполнитель-слушатель». Слушатель просто напрямую общается с композитором. Великий дар! Это очень ценно! Спасибо за это Счастье!

It is so beautiful. Thank you posting him again. Because of your posting of his Rachmaininoff etude. I played it. attached with my video response with my Rachmaninoff.
So many complaints about him rushing, this video is a snippet from where he does the entire Op. 118 set. In that sense, the tempo makes entire sense, since No. 4 and No. 5 have very dramatic slow moments. This makes it so that all 6 pieces speak out uniquely. I recommend hearing the entire Klavierstucke performance that Lugansky did to understand why he made No. 2 faster.
most beautiful interpretation ever. My favorite by far. Kempff's was good too, but wasn't to my taste; passionate ≠ stormy in my book. The rest were just too jarringly sporadic.
If you think he is rushing, go listen to Kissin or Pogorelich version. I am learning this piece and I have always had in mind the “perfect” speed and everything, but playing it is another ticket. The music of Brahms has that feeling, that you play it according to your own personality and your life experience, and every single phrase is and expression of yourself.
I like this but I recommend listening to the master of Brahms piano music Julius Katchen Classical music's best kept secret, particularly in Brahms .... unsurpassable! He has a way of expressing the music with great depth but without sentimentality mannerisms or affectation and an amazing sense of the whole piece Timeless
Tonal beauty, refined expression and intelligence here seem to operate in a perfect equilibrium. It's good to hear that this splendid pianist sounds as at home in this music as he does in Rachmaninov.
😍😍😍 просто люблю до невозможности это произведение с того как прослушал это произведение в 2004 году в аудиотеке училища, когда готовился к викторине!!! 💜💜💜
The most beautiful interpretation that I have ever heard. It is this level of feeling that I strive for when experiencing my personal performance of this haunting music.Thank you for sharing, with the world, your inner spirit.
@@zacsummers8755 It's beautiful and enriching that different musicians have different approaches and different listeners have different vibes & feelings. Thank you so much for listening. My favorite measures in this intermezzo, are the ones between 2mns & 2:35, and mostly 2:55 to 3:22 in this Luganski video. The first time I heard Glenn Gould play those with his unique combination of restraint and passion, I told myself, that's the ultimate declaration of true love. Indeed Lugansky's rendition is beyond perfection, but I just didn't feel the same or maybe I should've heard Lugansky first 😄
@haeyin i liked this interpretation for a while...until i listened to roberto plano, here on youtube. i'd go so far as to say that plano's performance of this particular piece is unsurpassed.
From the first note I knew that, for me, this was the supreme interpretation ( and there are so many) Just the correct amount of intellectual restraint: after all the piece is about emotion that was somehow contained over a lifetime.
I'm so sad that the klaiverstucke, which contained intermezzo 1, got taken off youtube... it was my favorite to listen to. I can't find it anymore. Usually it's the first to pop up but now all I see is this. Nice, but where's the first?
I never tire of playing this intermezzo myself. Expansive use of rubato is quite effective in your rendering. A bit quicker than I play it, but emotional and beautiful.
This piece is extremely difficult to play. Why? Because it's so easy to play it BORING! Brahms is about passion and fire and even though this is an "intermezzo" introspective, it must NEVER BE BORING! Listen to Arthur Rubinstein play it! That's the spirit of Brahms! Nikolai you get some of it in the middle section, and it's not a terrible performance, but it just doesn't deliver, as Brahms loved to say.
Dear Nikolai; Beautifully performed... but have you listened to the sound quality as it was recorded for broadcast on You Tube? Less than worthy of you.
Greetings. If you've not heard it, then you might give a listen to the performance of the Op. 118, No. 2 by Arthur Jussen (also posted at UA-cam, ua-cam.com/video/7Wo4IPNMzWQ/v-deo.html ). It times-out at 6:19 (and is, IMHO, not only a truly splendid and idiomatic reading of Brahms' sun-dappled late-autumn valedictory thank-you note, but also imbued with a wisdom far beyond this young man's years). This work was originally introduced to me a lifetime ago by a 1951 recording of Walter Gieseking that my grandmother had. Though the timing of 5:25 may suggest an overly-quick reading, it comes across as quite measured, and sonics (and Gieseking's politics) aside, you may find it worth a listen, ua-cam.com/video/0u9P2WO9Ok0/v-deo.html .
er, .. I they might be referring to his physical attributes, not musical ones :) And this might be a decent analogy - some people like certain musical interpretations and some people like certain physical characteristics. Beauty is in the eye or ear ......

Полностью согласна с вами! Лучше и не скажешь!

@@vaxx2007what are you referring to?!
спасибо за прекрасную музыку и великое искусство!удачи!
Лет надцать назад слушал впервые этюды-картины Рахманинова с руки Николая. Полюбил.
Probably one of my favorite piano pieces ever! I just love the introduction of the new theme after 2:00
Heard this the first time in an episode of "jesse stone", its just beautiful !
Same for me.

No 2 sounded just right to me
I think this exact recording is as perfect as this piece gets

For Insiders: "Brahms, Mr. Stone. Hear Brahms and you calm down".

can hear all melody lines... clear😢
Eterno
2:55
eric forman. nice.
most beautiful interpretation ever. My favorite by far. Kempff's was good too, but wasn't to my taste; passionate ≠ stormy in my book. The rest were just too jarringly sporadic.
i i wasn't forced to see it maybe I would have enjoyed it, google classroom......
What a lovely interpretation....expressive and passionate. ...it beams of Brahms.
This interpretation is absolutely magnificent!
love the tempo. A lot pianists play this very slowly.
Thank you!
Definitely one of the best interpretations. Bravo!! Truly understands the music… captures all emotions of great love, regret and acceptance.
Спасибо. Просто омываешься звуками. И очищаешься. Послушала - и как будто помолилась. Спасибо.
Как точно вы выразили мои ощущения!!! Испытала те же эмоции!
I love that interpretation
Most beautiful piece I’ve ever heard! Lugansky did a great job at showing it
Excellent taste, just enough reserved to bring forth the inner glow of music.
He has perfect understanding of all of composers!!!
👌

Couldn’t been said better
Magical interpretation !
Très belle interprétation! J'aime beaucoup la version de Hélène Grimaud, mais Lugansky joue très très bien ce morceau.
Lugansky and Bramhs.. perfect!!
ses expressions musicales comme extra musicales ont l'air sincères, c'est très beau et très plein sans être lourd
Beautiful interpretation, very well Lugansky is the best
Very emotional playing. I think he is a music prodigy or he has music talent. Lullaby-type music makes me want to sleep...zzz...

ive always loved lugansky's sense of phrasing. superb here as usual, although i still feel he plays this particular piece a bit on the fast side.

начало очень так себе а вот средняя тема великолепно сделана, так есть где помучиться с фразировкой
He doesn't fast, more fater play alexis weissenberg. I think so many pianist fast played this song, maybe another number.

Well Lugansky, I like Perahia's version better but you're really fucking gorgeous so its okay
Agree completely!
woah he's really hot. and a stupendous pianist!!!
Absolutely amazing playing

thank you!
He has it. The magic.
So beaultiful both music and performance!
C est dommage qu il n y a pas de commentaire en français des que c est du piano classique .très très beau sophie pianiste
...rather straightforward and not very personal...one way to go, but not my favorite...
he's pretty hot, too.
Is that really necessary
I never tire of playing this intermezzo myself. Expansive use of rubato is quite effective in your rendering. A bit quicker than I play it, but emotional and beautiful.
I like to think he's playing to the two beautiful girls in the background
Unlikely but maybe

This was recorded 7 years before it was posted on UA-cam by someone who is not lugansky
Semplicemente Divino !
Amazing talent..
So graceful!!
Brahms must be deeper than that. Thats what Clara Schumann understood
Clara only had one man in her heart & mind...Herr Schumann
Ppplease... load it up with stereo sound...please.
Used in Lust Caution beautifully.
Barenboim würde sich für deinen Kommentar schämen..
Magnifique .

Rivals Glenn Gould. Just beautiful.
Gould's Brahms playing is hardly beautiful.

His playing is terrific! It's his shirt that is the problem--it's too loud!
@helmet043
Damn right
Daniel Barenboim spielt beser als lugansky!
слишком быстро на мой взгляд, не впечатлило
terrible recording
I have no idea why people think Lugansky is hot...he has no sense of timing rushing through all the poignant parts.
er, .. I they might be referring to his physical attributes, not musical ones :)
And this might be a decent analogy - some people like certain musical interpretations and some people like certain physical characteristics. Beauty is in the eye or ear ......
What a terrible performance. Missing out on so many fabulous nuances of the Intermezzo!
It's hardly a terrible performance.
The performance could be worse by a long shot
