In the booklet of this recording, Krystian addressed the looming question about the Rach 3 - The Everest. The one question that's on everybody's lips. He said that he is not in favour of complete recordings, and the four Rach concerti were never intended as a cycle. He also said that "the interpretation would be enormously complex to work out - it's so laden with emotion that it tears me to pieces every time I hear it." And to that, I am devastated. Speaking as his fan, I just know that it would be earth-shattering. It would be on the level of perfection that is almost inhuman. But he's fast approaching 70. And Rach 3 is a young person's game. Not to be ageist, but it's true. It takes so much stamina. It is not a joke when they called it "Everest of piano concertos". But then again, Krystian is closer to god than a man, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. It should be noted that despite his claim, he is a completist, somewhat. He made the Beethoven (twice over), Brahms (also twice), Chopin (also twice), Liszt, Ravel concerti. Also, Chopin complete Ballades, Waltzes, Debussy Preludes, Schubert Impromptus.
@@MrHullUoh and i also agree on the importance of the balance between piano and orchestra, which seems to be a bit of an issue in most of his recordings

I'd literally sell my soul and sister to hear a Rach 3 recording
@@unidentified1935 your sister??🤣🤣
For me, Rach2 is a fair amount of Romantic. Rach3 is a little too much.
@@unidentified1935I would only sell one of my 4 nieces!!! 🤣
I heard this song first time, but i love this special melody and feelings!
20:19 OMG Thats so beautyfull, reminds me of New York music from the 40s
Appreciate that so much!! Must be a huge amount of work
Two wonderful compositions, especially the second one... Thank you very much for this pieces!
Still waiting for Zimerman's Rach 3 and 4 😔

@@dragonfire2265 ye im wrong srry
Amazing how the human mind works and how far we’ve come with music.
UA-cam should put ads between movements, not in the middle of them.
Thanks!
Oh gosh, Zimerman! 😭❤
2:38
I stopped everything I was doing to analyze this and try to find out what made this moment so breathtaking.
48:33 gorgeous chord there
How do they even play this piece from memory?
I’m waiting for Rach 4 and Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini
❤❤Thank you
Grande musica con grandi interpreti.
amazing how much energy zimerman brings to live performances compared to his studio recordings
@@nandovancreij yes, especially towards the end of the performance.
@@MrHullUoh and i also agree on the importance of the balance between piano and orchestra, which seems to be a bit of an issue in most of his recordings
@@nandovancreij At times it feels too fast, which is not always a good thing.

Maybe nervous lol

@@thelittlegamer6209 ye but in Zimmermans case the orchestra clearly had a different tempo planned, which he definitely knew because of rehearsals
