FOR NOW HAHAHA
It's a month after Yunchan Lim's victory at the Van Cliburn competition and after reading the comment section of his performances, I figured that I put something to the test. Have you ever noticed Yunchan miss a note, play a wrong chord, or get a rhythm wrong? It's hard to think about that when he's producing such unworldly music. In this video, I listen to Yunchan play his pieces performed at the Cliburn for a minute each to see if he makes ONE mistake. If he makes a mistake? THE VIDEO ENDS. Play along and see if you can hear a mistake I possibly didn't catch! Oh, and turn on your CC to read my thoughts during each of his pieces!
Thanks for watching!

Thank you everyone for watching! I want to make it very clear that this video is really supposed to represent how amazing Yunchan's playing is. While of course the mission is to find a "mistake" in his playing for this video, you get to listen to how well he can open every one of his pieces in each round. As I watched my recorded footage back, I found it extremely difficult to focus on anything else but his remarkable ability to serve the music of each piece. Mistakes do not define a performance (most of the time haha). Masterful pianists make mistakes. Just wanted to make listening to his playing added with a little twist :)
You've shown Yunchan is a human (thank god!) and only a real human can play music so beautifully with such story telling and emotions. Imagine comparing Yunchan's playing and a robot/computer playing a piece perfectly. I bet Yunchan's will be sublime. (I have a hard time describing Yunchan's ability...) Maybe, it's Yunchan's ability to connect with the audience as well, because he tells the story so beautifully.
주말에 시간이 허락될 때, 저는 큰 티브이로 윤찬의 1라운드부터 시간순으로 모두 다시 보는 것을 즐기고 있습니다. 콩쿠르 기간 동안 윤찬이 남긴 모든 연주가 다 소중하기 때문이에요. 매 라운드가 진행될수록 윤찬의 살이 빠지고 있음을 발견할 수 있었습니다. 윤찬의 스승 손민수 선생님은 콩쿠르 기간 내내 윤찬이 새벽 4,5시까지 연습했다고 하셨는데, 때로는 꼬박 밤을 새웠다고 합니다. 특히 리스트 초절 기교 12곡 이후 모차르트를 연주할 때는 살짝 아파 보이기도 합니다. 메신저로서 음악 속으로 깊이 들어가 작곡자가 남긴 위대한 유산을 전달하려 했던 윤찬의 노력에 경의를 표하고 싶습니다. 당신의 윤찬을 향한 애정을 느낄 수 있는 훌륭한 영상, 다시 한번 더 깊이 감사드립니다! 덕분에 행복한 아침입니다^^🙏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Piergiorgio; I watch your channel on Yunchan to see you amplify him. It's reaction of others that builds me. Eg the Fort Worth audience. And you are multifaceted -great humour ...thanks. As to Yunchan.His facials are huge. Eg did you spot the Sokolov likeness during the Chopin? The singing lips etc. Keep going. It's him and you.
Actually, Yunchan is much cuter than Sokolov!
@@annettefallon1652 Agreed - Nina c above says humans are always cuter than robots. No robotics here. Yunchan shows his music - and I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Cute plus.
The fact that he got to this level in only 11 years is beyond me.
Lim has practiced more than 12 hours a day for 11 years. His mother said that he often practices through the night. What puzzles everyone including his teacher is that he doesn't lose concentration or stamina next day while performing after whole night of practicing.
@@kyungheekim8573 you are right but Yunchan actually said that was why he was so tired (he actually looked more and more tired as the competetion went by) during this competition but he really wanted to make the music in his heart into a real being that he couldn't stop
@@kyungheekim8573 He did not practice more than 12 hours a day for 11 years. He said when he was young he practiced ~5hrs a day. It's only when he got older that he started practicing like crazy. And he said he also often can't practice that late at night because he lives in an apartment like most Koreans.
@@kyungheekim8573 That's not true. Lim Yun-chan said in an interview in the past that he suffered from severe depression after practicing 6 hours a day for the past 3 years. In the case of 12-hour or all-night practice, this is the case in special circumstances such as contests.
@@yjl3190 I see. Actually he has to do the school work too. What I know for sure is that he eliminates all mungo jumbos in life and focuses only on music.
It reminds me of Charles Bukowski’s poem
“Roll the Dice”.
Roll the Dice
if you’re going to try, go all the
way.
otherwise, don’t even start.
if you’re going to try, go all the
way.
this could mean losing girlfriends,
wives, relatives, jobs and
maybe your mind.
go all the way.
it could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.
it could mean freezing on a
park bench.
it could mean jail,
it could mean derision,
mockery,
isolation.
isolation is the gift,
all the others are a test of your
endurance, of
how much you really want to
do it.
and you’ll do it
despite rejection and the worst odds
and it will be better than
anything else
you can imagine.
if you’re going to try,
go all the way.
there is no other feeling like
that.
you will be alone with the gods
and the nights will flame with
fire.
do it, do it, do it.
do it.
all the way
all the way.
you will ride life straight to
perfect laughter, its
the only good fight
there is.
I am glad he proofed that he isn't a robot. (although clearly done intentionally)
Loving the Yunchan special we're getting!
I caught one small error during the Cadenza in the Rach3. One. That’s it. For the entire monster of a piece. And I listened to his performance at least five times before my ear caught it. One off note, and his timing is so god damn tight it didn’t even jar. I can’t even imagine this guy’s playing at thirty when he is so powerful, nuanced, dynamic, authentic and just so god damn musical at eighteen. It’s a staggering, monumental, generational talent. The future of classical music is in this hands of this lad.
독주회가 아닌 경연에서 체력적으로 무척 힘들었을 것입니다. 그럼에도 불구하고 용기있게 리스트를 연주함으로써 수없이 흘렸을 그의 땀방울과 기교를 넘어선 아름다움에 깊이 감동 받았습니다.
Mr. Wilsom, listen to Moonlight Sonata he played a year ago at age 17. It's so powerful. lt sounds like Beethoben himself is playing.
I think we all look like idiots staring at this demi-god performing.
Haha right
Thank you for introducing me to Yunchan Lim!
When a pianist like Yunchan is playing, I don't think anyone could actually know if a 'mistake' happened without looking directly at the score... while listening at the same time.
We’re all dying to know his secret. I’d love to hear how he practices! Personally I’m suspecting the secret is mental - it’s his attitude and approach to music that makes everything “fall into place”.
He said there's a lava-like singing inside him but to perfectly express that music he needs to struggle for a long time, study and think a lot, and practice overnight, to go beyond the skills to the realm of pure art..
I read somewhere that he lose track of time while practicing for he is so into making the ideal music in his heart into reality. (He actually practiced till 4am during this competition according to his host family)
A reporter asked him a question like "how many hours do you practice?" And he actually answered like "Till I collapse."
He said he is happier in the practice room than any other place including the podium receiving the gold medal.
He thinks contextually, everything to its proper proportion within the whole. I bet he hears the whole of the piece in his head! He knows what he wants to do with every phrase. I call it like a tennis player who knows how to get the ball into the court - the arc, the angle, the speed, the focus, the landing. He's brilliant!
He said at the end of his daily practice, he records his playing and checks how it sounds. Mostly he isn't satisfied with his playing, but very often he meets the moment where he's perfectly satisfied, kind of 'ideal' sound in his mind, and he feels great joy. He said this is why he couldn't give up piano even though he feels like doing it sometimes. I'm not sure if every musician does that. But I guess this is one of his secrets.
And one more. He said he memorizes the score until he could write it himself. I'm not sure how much effort this needs and if it's normal in other pianists.
@@suyoungha1756 Thanks for your comment - that's interesting that he records his practicing. Another tip for those of us who play! I'd say it's normal for top performance level musicians to memorize their pieces. I do not think he should give up the piano!!! He's one of the best in the world at this point!! Perhaps practicing less than 12 hours a day might be an acceptable change!
@@suyoungha1756 to write the score down, is very good sign that he cares about the text, the score. If we consider how many hours he spends practicing, it is not a “big deal” for him to be able to write the score from memory. There are many memories recalled during performances, such as written already with the examples of such sports as tennis. Great comments btw
It's not surprising, given the caliber of pianists that have emerged from South Korea of late; their piano school rivals the Russian school. During the 2105 Chopin Competition, I noticed Seong Jin Cho probably missed a couple of notes (you could barely tell) during the entire competition. DG issued all his unedited Chopin rounds. Viva Yunchan Lim indeed!
He’s just too good !
By think way, I dont think it’s about the wrong notes but about the playing, the dynamics, the originality, the pedalling, the rhythm, voicing and many more things. For instance, Alfred Cortot was known for playing many wrong notes but he’s still one of the greatest pianist.
The wrong note actually somehow sounds good though! Only Yunchan Lim could do that XD
Lim Yunchan won the Prize of Best New Work, the Toccata Fanfare, by Sir Steven Hough
277 / 5 000
Beyond his technique, his work, his passion, the whole difference with Yunchan Lim is that he is the music, he does not only serve it better than anyone, he transmits the soul of each musical piece and also from the composer. it really is beyond anything..
thank you for your videos.
Au delà de sa technique , de son travail , de sa passion , toute la différence avec yunchan Lim est, qu'il est la musique , il ne fait pas que la servir mieux que quiconque , il transmet l'âme de chaque piéce musicale et aussi du compositeur . c'est vraiment au delà de tout. Merci pour vos vidéos.
Perfectly put.
THE FACE YOU MADE IN THE LAST FRAME AHAHAHAH. Looks like a pranktuber thumbnail 😭
Lol if this were me the video would end after one second
You're such a fan boy. Pfff!
So am I
Hi Piergiorgio Wilson! Could you please let it not be your last Yunchan video on your channel (as said in the description)? I am (and I believe the viewers as well are) craving Yunchan’s music and content!! :)
The description also says “FOR NOW”, idk if he seen this and changed it.
Please keep going to react to all the Yunchan's performances!!
yes pls
Mistake or no mistake, he is The creme de la creme of today's pianists. There will never be another!...............
How do you know
I agree with your comment about no unnecessary hand movements. He plays with great economy. I've been watching many Rach 3 performances and I noticed in Kissin's performance that his fingers fly like Medusa heads (not that it impeded his technique, of course).
kissins technique is basically flawless to the point that it doesn't matter what he does
same with people such as zimerman, katsaris or hamelin
Thank you for making this video! And please keep making more videos about him haha. I look forward to it...!
This kid is crazy, I’m almost jealous that he’s my age and play this good, though I’ve only played for about 5 years
you shouldn't be jealous... he gave up his entire childhood and life to play like this. Missed out on a lot.
@@zomb7138 that’s true, but it’s still very amazing and hopefully I can be that good
I already was impressed when Trifonov played all Liszt Etudes in one sitting but this kid is only 18yo
Well, Trifonov was 23 when he played it which are 5 years more and ofc much time to get better, but at the same time still so young
I'm surprised this video is not infinite
임윤찬 연주는 들을수록 경의롭습니다
그 어린 나이에 타국에서 쉴새없이 밤을 지새우며 경연을 펼친 콩쿠르 대회라는걸
감안 한다면 소름끼칠정도 놀라운 연주라는걸
알것입니다
영혼을 바친다는 심정으로 연주 했다고 했죠
공감합니다. 아름다움은 악보로부터가 아닌 그의 영혼에서
I didn't know he HAD played any wrong notes, but I don't care anyway. I happily listen to recordings by Schnabel and Gieseking!
Magnificent!
Yunchan LIm did make a mistake between 4:20-4:25 (he played a few wrong notes during a series of fast descending broken chords) when he was playing etude no.6 Vision. He noted the mistakes and resolved it quickly! Apart from this, his performance was nearly perfect! In my opinion, his performance of the complete 12 transcendantal etudes is the best live audio/video recorded performance! His Mazeppa, Feux Follets, Eroica, Wild Jagd are stunning!!
ua-cam.com/video/XzNYx7eWWN0/v-deo.html
Haha what a video! I love your idea, captions, and esp the last frame lol. Btw a reporter asked him a question like "How many hours do you practice?" And he actually answered like "Till I collapse. I lose track of time"
I mean I already knew he is not a human but ..
Hi Piergiorgio, I think you have an intense man-crush on Yunchan Lim. Admit it already!!
I like his playing so much that his etudes put me to sleep at night :)
@@PiergiorgioWilson Don't worry, Piergiorgio, it's normal to have a man-crush on somebody you admire and adore very much. I was in Forth Worth, Texas in June for two weeks to watch the semifinal and final rounds of the Van Cliburn Competitions and I watched Yunchan Lim's renditions with amazement and fascination. I attended the after-party after the awards ceremony and I met Yunchan face-to-face and shook hands with him, and took several photos of him with myself. My first gesture to him was a salute, and he saluted me back! He looked so dapper, crisp and debonair even after a whole day of serious practice and competitions. He was very polite, courteous and entertaining to his adoring fans like myself. I wanted to kiss him on the cheeks (lips? ☺) but I was too embarrassed. Yes, I have an intense man-crush on Yunchan as well! (And also to Marcel Tadakoro, Fred Gad Crema and Choni.)
When he was playing the Mozart my mind was racing because: I DISLIKE Mozart, but why do I love hearing it when he plays it??????
waiting for him to err. What a triviality
I noticed that Lim has relatively small hands, compared to most renowned pianists. Would you possibly explain how he could have mastered such notoriously difficult pieces with his small hands. It is beyond my understanding, but I am dying to know how aspiring pianists could overcome their physical limitation. BTW, it is so funny his plays are now analyzed under microscope. Bring more on. I enjoyed your videos.
Ask Yuja. She has smaller hands than Yunchan.
I dont agree that most renowned pianists have big hands, I think the symmetry of the hands and finger strength matter more. Pianists like Kissin, Hofmann, Martha Argerich, Ashkenazy, Sofronitsky, Gilels, etc. are known for their control on the piano and all mentioned can't reach an 11th.
it's funny how average male and above average female hand size is considered small for a concert pianist. really shows you how important hand size is
@@ryzikx agree
You are just proving how good
Yunchan is.
오! 윤찬 군의 영상이면 무조건 좋습니다. 한 달째 그가 남긴 모든 연주곡에서 헤어 나오지 못하고 있어요. 😅 재밌는 영상 만들어 주셔서 진심으로 감사합니다! 👍🏻🙏
Next video idea: if Yunchan makes a mistake in Rach 3, the video ends😂
HAHAHA yes please
This seems like when zeus challenge all titans
Heck, even Cortot's recordings are still GREAT, even though he misses 5% of the notes! Note perfection DOES NOT NECESSARILY make a good performance, and vice versa!
I'm saying that Yunchan Lim could have missed 5% of the notes, and STILL the performance of his Rach 3 would have been AWESOME!
@@peter5.056 ㅅㅍ
나는 현미경으로 잘못된 음표를 찾는 당신이 귀엽다 😍
I love the faces you make every time you realize his playing is ridiculous lol
I need part. 2
The way it ended made me laugh 🤣
실수 찾기를 가장한 윤찬 홍보 영상 같아요 ㅋㅋㅋ
Hi! I know you said this is gonna be your last Yunchan video, but we all know the truth. 😏Do you think you can make a video on what exactly made Yunchan's Rach 3 performance so out of this world? Like what unique techniques he's using, a more in-depth analysis. Or just why you think his version is the best. What makes him so special. I would love to hear your take on it. :)
How in the world does he last that long. I can barely get all the notes right within the first ten seconds. :')
Try this. It covers in pretty detail how he did it. ua-cam.com/video/DhUFLepewgA/v-deo.html
agreed
Still, if you measure a pianist simply by their note perfection, you're missing the point. Robots can play perfectly, but that doesn't make them musicians. ❤️💯
Yeah, so u entertained me somewhat.
But ur reaction was more enjoyable ^^
can’t wait to see u next video now lol
really cool to refreshing new classical music content
If I did such a challenge, the video would last 5 seconds
Loving your videos!!
I love your hair...!! Did you just wake up? Still very cute ;P
Some say the video is still going to this day. 😂
I heard exactly 2 wrong notes in his Cliburn Rack 3 performance, but they amount to nothing.
racH 3 stupid typo...
And exactly what does your statement prove?
Other than your own immaturity in expressing such a ridiculous statement.
Who bloody cares about two wrong notes?
Where did you hear them...back up the claim.
Then get yourself to the next Van Cliburn competition and show the judges, audience and world your ability to perform the work flawlessly.
In the meantime...GROW UP!
Such a narcissistic statement you have made.
Pathetic.
Its my kind of video 333
I think Ben Laude pointed out that in Yunchan's Rach 3 that he added bass notes alá Horowitz.
idunno why but this feels illegal
There's a mistake at the end of Wilde Jagd (the octave Leaps section) but it great he won the first prize and shows that competitions sometimes have well deserved prizes
i dont mind any more yunchan vids :)
I read somewhere that after the competition, in an interview, Yunchan said he was playing only 30% of his ability (!), saying he wasn't playing well, so...
Huh? How could he even demonstrate the other 70%?!
@@sfrobink Everything he played for the Cliburn competition, he played 2-3 years before already, lol, like when he was 15 - 16 years old. And, I believe that is why he doesn't smile much when he's awarded... ua-cam.com/video/HU2ts-s92ZU/v-deo.html
His teacher Sohn later clarified that it is very likely to mean Yunchan is not overall satisfied with his performances. Sohn said Yunchan actually told him he can't remember how good or bad his performance was during the competiton
most obvious mistake is during chasse-neige
5 etudes later omllll
I appreciate you watching the whole video! Thank you.
This seems cruel. Who cares if he makes a mistake?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍
W!A!H!T??? Whaaaattttt??? You CAN'T do that this to me!!!!!!! 😅 upload asap plz~~~ 🙏🙏🙏 😅
above all, love your voice.!!
I hope he can compose his own music piece in future😂 No fun just to play other people's musical work.
그걸 찾아내다니 ㅋㅋ
Oh~~! You fianlly found it! ha ha ha ㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅎㅎㅎ
Look for mistakes in one of the Top notch pianists? Pointless
can you do one like this for bruce liu's chopin competition
He did make a mistake in the second transcendental etude (2:29 in original video) even though you skipped like five etudes and found one in the eighth etude
His Wilde jagd has some wrong notes but that’s fine
Has a pretty dire chord which messed up
So miskey is very normal even for the master pianists? 미스키는 대가 피아니스트들에게서도 흔히 발견되나봐요? (음알못의 궁금증)
Yes yunchan is a rare kind
Piergiogio should make mistakes in the detection of mistakes, so that we can have a longer video.
You have no reason to be so handsome. I can't concentrateYou have no reason to be so handsome. I had a hard time concentrating, but I am concentrating because of YunChan.
Your voice sounds like music~
🤗🤗😍
Mistake??😘😘his own voices!!!
You could have gone 20 min or an hour on each piece.
The result would be the same.
does the channel have a discord server?
윤찬을 이걸로 끝낸다고??하하하. 설마 질투가 나서 그런건 아니지??? 잘생긴사람은 아름다운 음악을들려주는 임윤찬을 더 분석하고 영상으로 사랑해줘~ 내가못하는걸 당신은 할수있잖아~제발~더더더 들려주고 보여주세요~Thank!!!
Come on, the etudes where full of mistakes, but who cares.
뭔 12분 동안 실수 안했다는 말만 하냐 진짜 의미없는 영상이다ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
He may not play wrong notes but his general tone production is a bit meh.. He pushes way more than he needs to. I'll bet if you look at his chopping boards they'd be all cut up.
