Bro decided after an entire concerto and an encore to come back and drop the greatest ever recording of the Ocean Étude.
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!
Согласна. Он ЛУЧШИЙ
@@user-ps6gd2kw6f Richter and Gilels gone, but Sokolov filling those enormous shoes.
Как он молод на этом видео! Наш Гений❤❤❤❤❤
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
sokolov is out of this world
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……❤❤👏👏
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
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!
I absolutely agree. He's talent, greatest, sn true professional and with a great sensitivity!!!🙏🏼❤🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼6👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
His performance of this Piano Concerto is Unique!!! ❤🌹💐🙏🏼🌟✨💫
🤝
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!
This is an absolutely stunning performance by Sokolov and this wonderful orchestra.
The two encores showcase every facet of this most extraordinary pianist. Again, just stunning.
Anson… as always, thank you. So proud to be a subscriber to your most wonderful channel.
Probably the best performance of Brams to me! Absolutely Monumental, captivating, emotionally and rationally balanced, with fantastic incompareable sound and truly musical genius touch!
Yes only Zimerman Bernstein close to him of Horowitz Toscanini
And Richter Leisendorf; and Gilels Jochum
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.

17:32 the articulation here is otherworldly.
I'm most impressed by the trills at 19:53
Yes! It's the wrong articulation! Those notes are not to be struck evenly, it's un -musical if done so as done by the great pianost
preach bruv
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 !
L'anima
It is a wonderful performance comparable to Richter’s 1960’s rendition 1:01:01 1:01:01
Sokolov basically owns the Ocean etude after this encore.
Думаю, сам Брамс был бы восхищен и аплодировал бы стоя! Браво, дорогой Григорий, Вы- ярчайший представитель русской фортепианной школы! 🙏🙏
9:50 how is this humanly possible
10:03 too
Grigory Sokolov=THE TITAN OF THE PIANO!! THE GIANT OF THE PIANO!! Grigory Sokolov his Chopin piano concerto no 2!! Brahms piano concerto no 2!! Mozart piano concerto no 24!! Saint-Saens piano concerto no 2!!! AFTER Grigory Sokolov PLAYED THESE CONCERTOS THEN ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS ARE REALLY ONLY THE DUST ZEROS!!
The most amazing playing is 26:06-26:27( The Best beautiful piano playing ever by The GIANT OF THE PIANO Grigory Sokolov!! Grigory Sokolov The King of rhythmic Vital playing ever 42:53-43:02! Sokolov a class of his own!! NO-ONE Other pianists can not Be play that Part with rhythmic vitalness! Unbeatable vitalness! The Finnish Proffesor Erik Tawaststjerna ( The jury member in Tchaikovsky piano competition in 1970 1974! Erik Tawaststjerna The Sibelius biography writer) Tawastsjerna claiming once The 4th movement Brahms piano concerto no 2 is The weakest Part not.as Good as 1-3! Grigory Sokolov proves Tawaststjerna horrible wrong! 4th movement by Grigory Sokolov is the most amazing Part of Brahms piano concerto no 2!!!
Richter does it as well, a little less deliberately
@@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.
I imagined that old Brahms himself was the soloist! Sokolov is awesome!
Потрясаю запись и непревзойденная трактовка Брамса! Потрясающий ансамбль пианиста и оркестра! Браво, музыканты!
This performance is god like. He owns this piece
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.
I thought nothing better than Zimmerman/Karajan performing Brahms 2 couldn’t happen on earth. I was wrong…
Zimerman is the Robot with an ice cold piano sound! The best Brahms no 2 concerto are Really=Sviatoslav Richter with the Paris Orchestra with Lorin Maazel!! Grigory Sokolov the best rhythmic vitalness! Edwin Fischer from 1942! Van Cliburn from 1962 in Moscow!!
hearing this is for me like a master class. there is so much to learn from this interpretation
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.
Исполнение. Соколова. Всегда. Ярко. Его. Музыкальные. Находки всегда. Неожиданны. И. Логичны thank. You. Very. Much❤
он необыкновенный. и с годами не теряет искренности. редкое качество.
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
Brahms , concert , two , in B major , wonderful and marvellous ❤
最初から最後まで圧巻の演奏🎹
UA-camにuploadして下さりありがとうございます❤
Un Brahms un po’ dilatato nei tempi ma assolutamente intenso e fantasticamente interpretato! 🍀
Giants exist.. they are among us.
Funny words
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.
Maravilloso! Que interpretacion tan majestuosa, me encanta, que sonido bello, nítido y expresivo. Desde hoy está interpretacion de Bramhs No. 2 será mi favorita.
.
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.

Pocos son capaces de tanto fuego y tanta dulzura en una interpretacion. Maravilloso Sokolov.
Eine Sternstunde der Menschheit !
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...
Каждый. Его. Выход. На сцену - это. Событие в истории человечества
Simply the best. 🎉
most beautiful performance for brahms pc2
ГЕНИАЛЬНЫЙ СОКОЛОВ!!!!!!!!! BRAVISSIMO!!!!!!!!!
*Magistrale* est le seul mot qui vient à l'esprit pour qualifier l'interprétation de ce monument musical par M. Sokolov !👏
This. Is. Celebration. To. Be. Connected. To. Genies and G d. Himself
I had enjoyed wonderful versions of this Concerto, but really think the Sokolov’s one is unbeatable!…
Unbelievably good! Thanks so much for re-uploading!

ladies and gentlemen, not to alarm anyone, but an alien has visited us on earth 😧
Best comment so far😅 I woul also include the orchestra and the conductor😊
Someone should teach this alien how to interpret Brahms without banging
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!!
Nah. The only alien is Elon. Got two 🧠🧠 brains.
Maybe that Brazilian metal vocalist also... Got two sets of lungs 🫁🫁
I absolutely agree. He is not from this Planet!!! Sokolov is out of this world. Johannes Brahms were very pride of him. Bravo!!! ❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💫✨🌜🌞🌟✨
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...

CELESTIAL!
Es la versión que más me gusta de este concierto.
Каждый. Сегмент. И. Каждая. Нота. Великолепны
Hi to all 😄❤I love this version , thanks for uploading !!
Magnificent!
Absolutely Divine!
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.
Гений.....Лучший....
fabulous. He's really on fire!!
Omg! Superb.
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.
Vyborne Vynikajici. ❤
A new gold standard. IMO this ranks with Rudolph Serkin / George Szell.
Serkin had much better taste. Sokolov brings too much of himself into the music. If one likes his unusual choices it's fine. I usually do not
Лучше не бывает!!!!!!!
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 ?
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 ❤
The Chopin etude is stunning
@@paulmoon3347Sokolov played 3 encores after Brahms concerto no 2! Chopin prelude! Chopin etude the Ocean! And Bach-Siloti prelude! Why Bach-Siloti is missing because tv time run out the Finnish broadcasting company had to show the 8:30(20:30) clock news! No way we the Finnish stop our news! I followed the whole concert on Radio!
Absolutamente genial
Fantástico pianista este sokolov,es in E.t.😮😮❤

No es de este mundo; está más allá de todo lo humano
Maravilloso concierto. La fuerza del piano, el director, la orquesta. Fascinación completa.
THE GUY'S FACE 8:13 LMAO
🙄🙄🙄
hahaha
J.Brahms: "Poor pianists, I will destroy you and your miserable virtuoso fingers. Hahahahaha"
G.Sokolov: "Say it again"
J.Brahms: "Poor piani...
G.Sokolov: SLAP!!!!
Russians will always be the best pianists.👏👏👏👍👍👍
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...
Come se fosse "qualche piccolo intoppo" a fare la differenza
Sorry to proclaim my nekulturny but, I've NEVER heard of this guy.
Never heard this piece played before either.
Chopin himself would fall off his chair after these "out of this world" encores...
Mi preludio favorito. Magistral la interprtacion. 👋👋👋🇮🇷🇮🇷👋👋👋👋👋👋❤️
Exelente estudio. de çhopin. №1. ❤️🇮🇷😘

Immenso
Genio del sigllo. 19. 🇮🇷❤️😘

CRAZY

Just loses himself at 17:42...superhuman.
Finnland! 😇

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.
Only Marvellous??? Grigory Sokolov=THE TITAN OF THE PIANO!! THE GIANT OF THE PIANO!! Grigory Sokolov his Chopin piano concerto no 2!! Brahms piano concerto no 2! Mozart piano concerto no 24! Saint-Saens piano concerto no 2!! AFTER Grigory Sokolov PLAYED THESE CONCERTOS THEN ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS ARE REALLY ONLY DUST ZEROS!!! SOKOLOV VERSUS ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS 100-0!!!
Il "Maestro" Sokolov forse voleva intendere
At first glance, Gérard Depardieu at the piano! In all seriousness the only pianist that actually plays the d major run, right hand 4 octaves in the last movement: IN THIRDS, ONE HAND! (Which is not easy.)
Жерару. Депар д ь е. Далеко. До. Того. Подвига. Который. Совершил Григорий занимаясь на. Фортепиано
No one comes close.

Do you happen to have Sviatoslav Richter's live performance rendition ?
Sorry I don’t
Nice.
