Sokolov played 3 encores that night after Brahms concerto no 2! Chopin prelude! Chopin etude the Ocean! Bach-Siloti prelude! Bach-Siloti prelude is missing because tv time run out the Finnish broadcasting company had to show the news 8:30(20:30)!
Ja. Level Rachmaninov. Wir haben sagenhafte Spitzenpianisten, so dankbar bin ich! Aber Sokolov und Rachmaninov, die sind einfach überirdisch, technisch sowieso und in Sachen Gestaltungskraft göttlich inspiriert. Wobei, ich lächele, Sokolov kommt es vor, daß er auch mal danebengreift, was ich bei anderen Spitzengrößen wie Langlang und so weiter so gut wie nie höre. Das tröstet mich, der ich Organist und Klavierspieler auf Ebene Lokalmathador war, lächel. Während ich schreibe, haut er grad eine der dramatischsten Stellen des ersten Satzes in die Tasten. Schweißtreibend. Beglückend. Brahms, das Kraftvolle extrem männlich hingehauen, das Feine und Träumerische maximal fein ausgespielt. Wow,, so mag ich es. Danke, danke, danke.
In my opinion Sokolov is the best pianist in the world I'm so glad he's still performing in 2022 and it's such an inspiration to listen to how he brings out the beauty of the piano like no other!
I had the privilege to watch this master at work, on the stage. I took a photo with him and everything, focused on stage but the nicest person on earth backstage. Such an experience
Unbelievable pianism! I could swear that, during the two Chopin encores, both solos, I could hear an orchestra accompanying him! I guess it was just his left hand, but... I can't explain it!
Sokolov played 3 encores that night! Chopin Prelude! Chopin Etude The Ocean! Bach-Siloti prelude in b minor! Bach-Siloti missing because TV-time run out! The Finnish Broadcasting Company had to show the News 8:30( 20:30) We the Finnish worshiped the Beast 666 in that night! 2/3=0,666 Sokolov's encores shown filmed! Really Shocking Stupid The Finnish Broadcasting Company!
Probably the best performance of Brams to me! Absolutely Monumental, captivating, emotionally and rationally balanced, with fantastic incompareable sound and truly musical genius touch!
Pretty sure he’s got Richter and Gilels beat-hands down-on this performance. Don’t think any performance I’ve heard (so far, during my 70 years on this planet) comes even close.
Every time I listen to Sokolov play this great Brahms creation, I am feeling and sensing Ludvig Van Beethoven playing it himself. Astounding! IS sokolov channeling Beethoven, or is Beethovens spirit right next to Sokolov and inspiring Sokolov with his ( Beethovens ) divine musical mind ? Sokolov is a musical PHENOMENON. Artists of his caliber come into physical manifestation only every 130 -200 years and leave humanity a legacy that ennobles ALL humans tenfold.
As with other Sokolov performances I've had the pleasure of listening to - beautiful, powerful and exciting. A work of musical art. Thank you for sharing.
Wenn man nur nach dieser unglaublich perfekten Brahms-Aufführung geht, ist Sokolow schon der bei weitem beste Pianist der heutigen Zeit! Es ist nicht zu glauben, wie wunderbar dieser Mann spielt - ein echtes Geschenk Gottes!
01:53 - I. Allegro non troppo 20:35 - II. Allegro appassionato 30:02 - III. Andante 42:16 - IV. Allegretto grazioso 54:55 - Chopin Prelude Op.28 No.4 in E minor 58:28 - Chopin Etude Op.25 No.12 in C minor
In 1977 I started attending the University of Alberta in Edmonton. That fall I attended the first of many performances of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra. The first performance featured Misha Dichter playing this concerto. The performance in this video is absolutely splendid and brings back many good memories.
Few pianists REALLY do the right hand solo thirds from the last movement convincingly. MAH, Zimmerman, Pollini arguably, and that's probably it, with Hamelin with the cleanest runs, as far as I can tell. But with Sokolov we get all the thirds with art. Nothing mechanical.
The orchestra with Saraste has so powerful sound! No need to talk about Sokolov, we all know him, this is with no doubts the best Brahms 2nd piano concerto ever😭
This is so far ahead of any other performance. Right from the first phrase, Sokolov shines. Romantic music is where Sokolov is truly himself. I’ve never heard another pianist able to play Brahms so beautiful, not to mention the incredible etude encore. Casually performs the op 25 no 12 etude in the most passionate and sonorous way. Bravo.
I have recently listened to about 10 performances of this concerto, all by great pianists. And there is something about this performance that really stands out as exceptional.
I agree. Such a sensitive pianist, but his technique and power are so assured, and brilliant for a Brahms reading. Congratulations on the recording quality and camera work! The orchestra and conductor were just as strong in support. I'll subscribe !
Thank you so much for posting this! I have been looking for just such an interpretation of this masterpiece! The remarkable thing about this piece (at least to me) is that Brahms seems to have worked a very delicate balance of the tempo (especially in the solo sections of the first movement). And the pianist needs to be cognizant of that. If he/she plays too fast where he/she needs to be playing slow, they will almost certainly run out of steam later on. Grigori Sokolov is the first pianist that I’ve seen who appears to have recognized this balance. The result speaks for itself……❤❤👏👏
Maravilloso! Que interpretacion tan majestuosa, me encanta, que sonido bello, nítido y expresivo. Desde hoy está interpretacion de Bramhs No. 2 será mi favorita. .
I love this wonderful Cooncerto of the Maestro Johannes Brahms. It's so Greatest, Maestuoso and make me remembery lovely father who is in God,'s Paradise.... Perhaps like greats friends... Great pianist, grateful Orquestra and an Great Conductor!!! Bravo!!! ❤🌹💐🌟🌟💫✨👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼
Enorme Sokolov! Tan apasionado es el primer allegro como el segundo! Destaca su fuerza expresiva, su lirismo inigualable... Pero, además, y esto es muy difícil, orquesta y director están a su altura! En resumen, sin duda, una de las mejores interpretaciones de este concierto sin par
The best Brahms concerto no 2 are Really=Sviatoslav Richter Edwin Fischer Grigory Sokolov( the best rhythmic vitalness! The best piano sound!) Van Cliburn! And the most beautiful version Stanislav Igolinski!!
I absolutely agree. He is not from this Planet!!! Sokolov is out of this world. Johannes Brahms were very pride of him. Bravo!!! ❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💫✨🌜🌞🌟✨
This man has a close relation With his instrument and his music-Russian school maximum weight and fingers and maximum risk -no nonsense.I adore.Not so much the conductor.Hé can beat time yes.his right arm is not very relaxed.this influences the sound always
Cuando escucho a brahms, recuerdo a un vecino que admiraba a bra brahms. Éramos fanáticos de la buena música; la mentablemente, ya no está en este mundo. Este tema se lo dedico a el. Seguro que lo está escuchando desde donde esté, en espíritu...
The thing i love about Sokolov is the very directness, and depth of sound. That is something he was born with i guess. would. Also his use of gravity, never stuck to the keyboard, which makes depth rather that strike from a shorter distance. Amazing ❤

@@RaineriHakkarainen Sokolov is certainly rhythmic, different from Richter but not better in my opinion. Those two are the best with this piece that I've heard. I'm glad to have both of them.

How does he get that striking but soft crystalline effect at 23:25? Una corda perhaps? Love the bigger than life expression and the creative tension between orch. and solo.
I can is a man unlike any!'t believe Sokolov in this .I've watched Sir Curzon in this over and over but Sokolov has a depth a sound .Seems like Radu Lupu never recorded this did he ever play it ?

El director hace una parte muy importante en la coordinación de los tiempos y el equilibrio del concierto. Saraste ( ? ) merece un reconocimiento especial. Por cierto, Borges por única vez menciona la música clasica en toda su obra, no es extraño ? Precisamente asistió a este concierto pero no mencionó al concertino, a la orquesta ni en dónde lo escuchó. Se entendió con Catarphilus en griego antiguo y olvido estos detalles y no al perro.

Dommage que quelques minimes accrocs se soient glissés dans ce remarquable enregistrement, qui nous permet de voir la maturité qu'avait déjà "notre" Sokolov de l'époque, qui nous montre combien il a encore muri dans ces dernières années ! A ne surtout pas manquer s'il passe dans nos régions...
Mr Sokolov is a marvellous pianist. Perhaps it’s my hearing, but the large orchestral forces sometimes obscure the piano’s sound. I prefer the Brahms concertos with a smaller orchestra and more transparency. Just a thought. And probably my ears.

For many years I have regarded the performace of this concerto by Emil Gilels and Fritz Reiner (Chicago Sym) as definitive Now there are two definitive perfromamces: Sokolov and Gilels.

For many years I have regarded the performace of this concerto by Emil Gilels and Fritz Reiner (Chicago Sym) as definitive Now there are two definitive perfromamces: Sokolov and Gilels.
And Richter
Finnland! 😇
Whatever is happening at 8:40 can't be healthy for the hands
1:53❤
No es de este mundo; está más allá de todo lo humano
Maravilloso concierto. La fuerza del piano, el director, la orquesta. Fascinación completa.
