    I imagine this is exactly how Debussy imagined it should be played. She played this like it was a dear old friend. Sooo beautiful.

    A journey experience among the heart and the soul... Coming in and out from one to the other, constantly. Absolutely magic from the hands of this woman traveling through the notes as if this piece was her own life's experience.

    One of the finest, most expressive and emotive pianists I’ve ever heard. I started collecting her recordings in 1998, starting with her interpretation of the Chopin Nocturnes. I’ve been a pro player for 30 years and am always so excited to hear musicians like this that lift your spirit and take the music to another level.

  • @mattm4171

    Breathtaking. She's so connected to the experience, it was as beautiful as the music itself. Debussy is beaming with pride, wherever and whenever he is!

      "Newfound Awareness
      Through life many stumble, seeking empty titles
      Endless is the strife, spellbound by earthly glories
      Wallowing in filth and mire, saddled by ills
      Regret comes late, with reflection in the waning years
      Our lives are innately divine and were Heaven born
      The universe faced calamity, and nothing could be done
      To this earth we thus came, to await the Creator
      Heaven again becomes possible to any who
      shed their karma and are cleansed of sin
      God’s path is available to those not blinded
      by attachments to this world
      Atheism is backed by a feral thing
      Evolution is a dogma wicked and without base
      Man’s conduct today strays far from the Divine
      Many a view and belief prove to be obstacles
      How many can be saved?
      How many shall make it through?
      August 20, 2018
      ***
      Fade to Dust
      Most in this mortal world,
      did come for the Way
      Only to lose their purpose,
      entering this beguiling place
      For those who slumber still
      despite Dafa’s spread and suppression
      This life and all its treasures,
      shall fade to dust
      January 22, 2019
      ***
      The Divine Is Shown
      Their dance dispels karma’s dark clouds
      Their heavenly music awakens our true selves
      All this is the Creator’s grace bestowed
      Free yourself of modern thought and ways bizarre
      Recover the kindness and honesty you once knew
      Atheism and evolution are a cancer that mars the soul
      The ways of tradition lead to Heaven’s dais
      The Divine manifests for the rescue of our souls
      What you now sense and see are His designs
      Braving dark tides to mercifully save us
      I embrace the world through Shen Yun
      January 23, 2019

    She had my mother’s eyes. We would stay up till the early hours of the morning in beautiful quiet company, and as the sun’s rising rays would caress all of the world’s crevices she would play this. I would cry, oh how i would cry.

    Maria João, sou um conterrâneo, um primo ou sobrinho. Ouvi a peça a chorar. Das mil versões que já ouvi, esta é a minha preferida. Choro aos 45 anos como uma criança pela beleza do momento, mas sobretudo por relembrar com carinho como a Maria João foi minha inspiração quando aprendi piano. E choro porque desisti do piano, por razões da vida. Foi como um divórcio. Pior, foi como uma amputação. Ainda hoje sinto, como se de um braço ou uma perna se tratasse. Ainda toco, claro, mas raramente porque ainda me dói. A minha professora era Russa. Com ela apeendi coisas que não imaginava. Com ela aprendi desde sentar no piano (coisa que nenhum outro professor me houvera ensinado) a toda uma coreografia corporal para ajustar o meu corpo aos movimentos do piano de forma a produzir o melhor som utilizando cada articulação do corpo. Com ela aprendi a amar a Maria João. Em especial para estudar Mozart, Schubert ou Schumann era obrigatório ouvir Maria João. Espero um dia ainda conhecê-la pessoalmente e contar-lhe tudo isso, mas aqui fica o meu testemunho e o meu obrigado, porque momentos destes valem por toda uma vida. Obrigado.

    I've heard it said, and I could not agree more. that when a person understands life, they will plant a tree knowing that they will never live long enough to enjoy resting under it's boughs. But when you truly understand life you have left a gift for generations to peacefully contemplate life under the majestic tree you planted.
    Bravo Maria.

    Wow Maria. It feels like flower petals are floating through the breeze, never to touch the ground as the air lifts and settles. When most people play this, it feels like they are rushing the best parts and clunking the keys as hard as possible in the forte sections. You magically play the dynamics perfectly without changing the original rhythm and the piano sounds as if it is playing itself, you must truly caress the keys. Thank you for your gift.

    Soooo gefühlvoll hat es, glaube ich, noch niemand gespielt...als er selbst...😢❤

    Так поэтично и романтично звучит музыка Дебюсси в прекрасном исполнении пианистки.😊🎉

    Tive o imenso prazer de assistir a dois concertos da pianista portuguesa, no Teatro Castro Alves, em Salvador. Emocionante!
