hello everyone, I want to share with you my Symphonic Poem, Inspired by Prokofiev s Music, I hope you will enjoy it ua-cam.com/video/FtgOpfUirT4/v-deo.html
Masterful, amazing godess Martha Argerich plays in every sense of the word with the piano, the Orchestra and the composer. It always brings tears to my eyes. Maravillosoooooo!!!!!!!!!!
I keep returning to this amazing performance of a truly amazing piano concerto. I have collected more than 1,000 CDs of all the great classical masterworks but now defer to the computer where I can SEE and HEAR such glorious music as this. Martha Argerich - what a consummate performer!!!!!!!
Apart from the fact that every time I hear her play this (or anything by Prokoviev, or anything) I get chills, I am blown away by the way this particular concerto serves as an absolute display cabinet of all of Martha's technical skills, strength, touch, clarity, emotion, sensitivity to the orchestra, and on and on. This short work is art when done by her, and seems a bit less when done by others.
Yes, absolutely. Same thing for me when I hear a piece of Beethoven executed by her. You think notes are notes but no, she can add something more to it and it is not well understood what that something else is. She is just amazing.
And I agree as well. She collaborates so beautifully with the conductor, while other soloists can perform as if they were large, self-contained islands. And with her Magellanic approach, she manages to fashion entire continents out of the piano-which is already the “continent of the orchestra.”
How wonderful is to see her playing relaxed in public, at her maximum, playing as a child, expressing without fear.. Lovely performance! (both pianista and conductor) Chapeau!!
Sometime ago, I was in a speech with an soloist piano lady, and I saw "I like too much the first Prokofiev piano concert". She tried to correct me " The second?", "No, I really mean the first". She was surprised.
Most of my life I have been living outside of Russia, not much thinking about her. And only when I am listening to that masterpiece I feel homesick. I do not remember how that home looks like.
I am a traditionalist and always struggled to embrace this concerto when I heard other interpretations - until today. Prokofiev and Argerich together are powerful, are brilliant! I want more! I am speechless! I’m in awe!
Magnificent performance! Resplendent in the requisite sparkling, dynamic pianism. I do believe that Argerich was born to play Prokofiev. Maybe he envisioned her and her formidable KB gifts in a dream the night before he composed it.
She's truly amazing. And the way she interacts with the orchestra, like she knows their parts as well as her own - pretty damn good! (And who knew Billy Bob Thornton could conduct! )
I do not love everything Martha plays...her " too fast Mozart and work on the more intimate pieces of Chopin and Brahms are not to my liking...but what she does well: the Russians, Schumann, Schumann is sans pair. Her recordings and performances of the Chopin e minor concerto, the Ravel, the Beethoven 1st and 2nd are sans pair and the list could go on and on. As Eduardo Delgado says, "es única."
This is my first ever MARTHA ARGERICH clip. Prior to this, i was A Virgin. Now i am Totally Besotted! Such a Wonderful Performance, despite open-air venue, buzzing insects and coughing. I really Dig Ms Argerich's excellent performance and relaxed style here. I love Rabinovic's Goth Conducting, and how at the end, he's sweating profusely, but Ms.Argerich jumps up, gives him a peck on the cheek and saunters-off Fresh-As-A-Daisy! BRAVO MARTHA ARGERICH!!!!
+BRUCE MCINTOSH Ah ah I was at that concert, it's in the south of France, in august, that's why Mr Rabinovitch sweats a lot; and as for the cicadas they are truly insanely noisy, but when the music begins you forget them and you just enjoy. The Château de Florans is a magical setting for the piano festival, the only real annoying thing is the massive summer transit of rich and snobs who migrate from Paris posh districts to the Luberon for the occasion !
+Franck Wade And it looks like most of them were in the audience on this occasion. Is it just my imagination or was the audience looking bored and like this piece that was modernist about 100 years ago was too strange for them? Even if you don't like a piece of music, you've got to give some appreciation to the soloist and orchestra! Cochons!!
+Franck Wade The cicadas are one thing -- we were subjected to the croaking of consumptive frogs during a recent National Symphony Orchestra concert at Wolf Trap that was also accompanied by lots and lots of rain ...
Glorious! The first description that came to mind. When I was a young thing I had to let Prokoviev grow on me. He is now one of my favorites. And, Martha is perfect for this piece. Thank you for posting.
The rhapsodic, almost improvisational nature of this most excellent concerto suit Ms Argerich just fine. This, along with her extraordinary performance (also on UA-cam) of the Shostakovich No 1 concerto for piano (and trumpet) are as entertaining to watch as they are to listen. Though not technically quite as pristine as she can be, she captures the youthful exhuberance of this piece. The "2nd movement"..of sorts...is, IMO one of the composers loveliest, and most evocative scores. The harmonies border on jazz before the 10 minute mark, and that almost "spooky" section at 10:30 has been imitated by several film composers, as much of this entire concerto has. It might be odd to say, but I enjoy this concerto every bit as much as the No 3. In some ways, it is No 3's companion, as is Shostakovitch's kindler and gentler No 2 piano concerto (written for his infant son Maxim) is to the composer's first Piano concerto. This is also a VERY fine video, with audio that, through my recording studio Monitors is demonstration worthy in it's balance and musicality.
Like everything she plays, Martha plays with her soul. She shows a total oneness with the music and so makes it comprehensible to us mere mortals. Thank you.
Non il n'y a aucun mystère justement, vous avez raison, c'est toujours pareil, c'est brillant, confondant de virtuosité, mais ça reste à la surface, c'est creux. En bref c'est de l'esbroufe.
Of all music written bearing the modern sound is there anything that compares to the piano concertos of Prokofiev ? What could be better than that played by the greatest pianist ever recorded ?
Not True!! More colorful beautiful piano sound than Argerich=Wilhelm Kempff Emil Gilels Artur Rubinstein Radu Lupu Vladimir Ashkenazy! More powerful louder than Argerich=Mikhail Pletnev! The second loudest was Lazar Berman! More genius than Argerich=Sviatoslav Richter Solomon Cutner Grigory Sokolov Maurizio Pollini Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinski! Argerich not the best genius! Argerich not had the best piano sound! Argerich not the most Powerful! Argerich can not be the greatest!!
Ms. Argerich is a genius at the keyboard. She plays with great feeling and emotion. She has her critics, but believe me as a striving pianist in my youth, it takes a great deal of physical work to perform and make beautiful music. I rate her above Artur Rubenstein, who I heard live in the Hollywood Bowl in my youth, then at Redlands University where I was a piano major. If only it had been Argerich. Cheath
I am sure the audience, barring a few who accidentally stumbled into the festival tent, was quite aware of their priviledge. Argerich is a not exactly an unknown pianist and many many many people admire her and appreciate her genius. And I am sure many were thrilled to hear this relatively little played Prokofiev concerto. No disrespect.
Droga Martho, czas biegnie nieubłaganie do przodu. Wszyscy stajemy się dojrzalsi i coraz bardziej doświadczonymi muzykami. Jednak to co Pani tu prezentuje na You Tube z koncertu na żywo jest fenomenalne. Ponad czasowe. Gra Pani ten KONCERT w sposób nadzwyczajny. Żaden pianista/tka nie potrafił jeszcze nigdy dać temu dziełu tyle barw, spontanicznej narracji, tyle ciepła zarazem, tyle liryki i tyle, aż tyle temperamentu czasów współczesnych : XXI wieku. Tak, pianiści niestety nie potrafią dziś tak w sposób absolutnie unikalny, kreować ten arcy trudny technicznie i arcy genialnie napisany Koncert. Jest Pani najlepszym odtwórcą, a ściślej Stwórcą pierwszym i jedynym tego dzieła. Uważam Panią za grającą tutaj światową najcudowniejsza premierę Sergiusza Prokofieva !!!!!!!!!! Justyna Philipp, pianistka
An absolutely awesome performance. Surely amongst the greatest of pianists! And Prokofiev - such an innovative composer What a truly great combination!
* Prokofiev, Piano Concerto No 1 * ¡¡¡ CÓMO me GUSTA !!! Este concierto es MARAVILLA PURA FABULOSA !!!!!!! MARTHA. Una OBRA de ARTE esta representación del 2005 MGRACIAS x compartir ARTE
Esta maravillosa pieza no solo que me hizo llorar sino me llenó de sentimientos que uno desconoce que los tiene hasta que los descubra en cierto momento de su vida... Gracias
This is nothing, if you haven't heard Prokofiev's 2nd concerto, it is even more fiendishly difficult. Argerich herself won't touch it, I've heard. Prokofiev was a genius, he wrote this while still a student at the Conservatoire and he won the piano competition playing this - his own concerto. It was a case of "mud in your eye!" to most of the teachers who couldn't understand his modernist compositions.
@@slowpainful Check out Yuja Wang's performance of the Prokofiev 2nd. It will put you up into another world! Especially her playing of the 1st movement cadenza.
What a fascinating and unsettling piece of music. It sounds like what an alien who really wanted to sound like Tchaikovsky would compose. Even at this young age and musically inspired by a known master, Prokofiev just couldn't hide the fact that he was a true and original creative genius.
Liszt would not have worn or needed the hair clip. He had a personal djinn to rake back and hold his mane. He turned the performing orientation of the piano to side view so the audience could see it.
@mmoynan I know, I love this version, the sound is great, despite the light buzz in the background. You have not only made my day but also my whole month with Prokofiev
I listen to this repeatedly because of the remarkable microphonics which crisply capture elements of wit in both her performance and those of the distinct members of the orchestra that I've not heard in other very good recordings of this piece. Refrained motifs resonate from specific instruments with a clarity as startling as M A's gossamer, richly discordant undulations and sparks.
Fantastic. Argerich makes it all look so easy even as her hands - to borrow a phrase from Steven Leacock - "gallop off in all directions". Phenomenal technique, but never JUST technique, always musical, spontaneous, passionate. Who is playing now to even compare? I have grown to love the effervescent, youthful exuberance of this piece - which I find every bit as approachable as the 3rd. Check out that cascade of Russian bells that the piano starts at around 14:40, continuing right through the coda / final statement of the opening theme! I can't imagine how anyone could not enjoy this concerto's lyricism, frantic energy and playful antics - but this audience! It feels like everyone is sitting with their arms folded, saying, "what the hell is this?" Maybe someone forgot to tell them that it's OK to enjoy a concert and not be so solemn... I mean, Prokofiev, never exactly shy and retiring, basically wrote this piece to give the middle finger to his teachers at the Conservatory - it's kind of like a musical "go f--k yourselves"!
@@rozayoder3178 I'm a real fan of Trifonov as a multi-dimensional player, but even with his great tech accomplishments (and a huge industry marketing machine behind him also to be honest) - for me I don't believe he's quite in the same class yet. That's how unique Martha is.
Spectacular performance by an absolute amazing piamist, fantastic composition by a very young Prokofiev. A must see.
I'm sure even Prokofiev himself would have been fascinated by this performance. Amazing rendition of the style and musical intentions.
Colosal!!!!!
So Right You Are. Truly Magnificent Performance!
no me canso de escuchar a Martha Argerich y Rabinovitch la complementa estupendamente, que asociación musical más perfecta.
Cierto. Martha es muy especial.
Those little smiles from Martha melt my heart
16 years after this performance......still no one can touch her
Except Yuja Wang
@@wai701b6I totally disagree, although I do think Yuja is an excellent pianist. Argerich owns this piece.
Yuja Wang just did!
@@wai701b6 I respect Yuja totally but I don't think so at all 😅

I was deeply impressed by yhe conductor...bravo ...
Martha, eres grandiosa, interpretas a un gigante de la música contemporánea con la maestría de un genio musical!
the giant circles in the opening! like the planets moving! then to total Prokofiev piano freakout, i love this thing
Liszt himself is conducting!

Masterful, amazing godess Martha Argerich plays in every sense of the word with the piano, the Orchestra and the composer. It always brings tears to my eyes. Maravillosoooooo!!!!!!!!!!
Out of this world. Argerich is second to none and Rabinovich does an equally fantastic work with the orchestral part. Breathtakingly wonderful.
I keep returning to this amazing performance of a truly amazing piano concerto.
I have collected more than 1,000 CDs of all the great classical masterworks but now defer to the computer where I can SEE and HEAR such glorious music as this.
Martha Argerich - what a consummate performer!!!!!!!
Glory be. Prokofiev, Argeich, and Rabinovitch !! Superb
12:14 this is charm messing around with charm. Prokofiev
14:46 Then he's basking in molten mojo
Have to say there's a version out there that's superior to this. Sort of goes without saying though. Richter and Ancerl. Monsterous performance.
Apart from the fact that every time I hear her play this (or anything by Prokoviev, or anything) I get chills, I am blown away by the way this particular concerto serves as an absolute display cabinet of all of Martha's technical skills, strength, touch, clarity, emotion, sensitivity to the orchestra, and on and on.

You need to hear Gavrilin
or Floristán ones
@@JOHNDOE-fr2jw yes, the Floristán version gives more prominence to the piano in the opening bars, my preference.
How wonderful is to see her playing relaxed in public, at her maximum, playing as a child, expressing without fear.. Lovely performance! (both pianista and conductor) Chapeau!!
Sublime performance.
It makes me cry! Bravissimo!!! Dear Martha, you are amazing.
Phenomenal for anyone. For a 70-year-old, incredible. She never ceases to amaze and delight.
Sometime ago, I was in a speech with an soloist piano lady, and I saw "I like too much the first Prokofiev piano concert". She tried to correct me " The second?", "No, I really mean the first". She was surprised.
What a wonderful Piano Concerto! I've heard this concerto for the very first time and I love it!
Most of my life I have been living outside of Russia, not much thinking about her.
And only when I am listening to that masterpiece I feel homesick.
I do not remember how that home looks like.
This is one of my favorite piano concertos being played by one of my favorite pianists
Very discerning
She's specjalist of prokofiev
Absolutely fabulous performance
never a dull moment with Argerich !
I am a traditionalist and always struggled to embrace this concerto when I heard other interpretations - until today. Prokofiev and Argerich together are powerful, are brilliant! I want more! I am speechless! I’m in awe!
Really, the first time I heard it I thought it was amazing...maybe just stick with Mozart and Schubert and leave 20th Century music to others.
@@jonnieinbangkokwe're gatekeeping Prokofiev
The most brilliant, knowing and idiomatic performance I have ever heard or could hope for.I am sure that S.P. is delighted...
Damn I love and admire her so so much....
Soloist & conductor both dress like their generation -- hippies. I love it. Right on!
On the plane Richter now Argerich! Both play this in a breathtaking fashion! Why do I need more?
She born to play something like Tchaikovsky,Prokofiev.,Rachmaninov. Once in a life wanna hear her live performance.
Magnificent performance! Resplendent in the requisite sparkling, dynamic pianism. I do believe that Argerich was born to play Prokofiev.
Maybe he envisioned her and her formidable KB gifts in a dream the night before he composed it.
Stunning performances every time!!!!!
Leo
She's truly amazing. And the way she interacts with the orchestra, like she knows their parts as well as her own - pretty damn good!

She is a fabulous talent and has been her entire career. Great musician.

Probably the most fascinating about her. She is now 79 and remains as impressive as before. She hasn’t lost anything...

She is a "Master" musician, and has been for many years. This is another great performance of a very exciting and tuneful work by Prokofiev.

Refrained motifs resonate from specific instruments with a clarity as startling as M A's gossamer, richly discordant undulations and sparks.
