You play this really well. I can almost visualise Mendelssohn sitting with you and nodding his approval. You certainly have mine. I try to play this piece and will certainly copy your wonderful interpretation.
Mendelssohn, more than any other composer I know of, regularely falls victim of unsensitive performances. THIS very strong and personal interpretation makes me think that his works sometimes need to be "unlocked" in order to show their true beauty and complexity. Careless and mediocre playing used to give Mendelssohn a much less than deserved appreciation, fitting to antisemitic bias. Some non western musicians, (I'm not speaking of this performer!), untainted by the european underrating, have often shown a better understanding than those with european background.
I agree with the notion that Mendelssohn was underrated, especially in music schools, where children’s music world is shaped. My piano teacher in StPetersburg considered Mendelssohn a second rate composer, who tried to tailor his compositions after Schubert! What nonsense! Because of that bias, my intro to his chamber music happened much much later in my life. Thanks teach!
You are so correct in making this observation. I think there is an inordinate amount of inverted snobbery over Mendelssohn's music.Some think anything post Beethoven - pre Holst is a load of rubbish and I am not one of them. His Songs w/w are superbly constructed. How he would have loved some of the modern pianos now available!
Very fine playing and perfect touch. However, for Mendelssohn, too much is made of unimportant details and the whole is a little too over-interpreted for my taste.
Funny, I find Mendelssohn to be one of the hardest composers to interpret. His art of composing is so low key and understated that it's hard to imagine that he was one of the greatest piano virtuosos of his time, as accomplished as Chopin and Liszt, (whose extravaganzes he somtimes caricatured on informal gatherings!). But he was a classisist and kept his poetry and emotions under tight control. The ambitious interpretor need to extract those from the Biedermayer tradition it fell victim of.
beautiful, thank you [:
Wonderful performance, great pianist.
Beautiful dialogue between singer and pianist.
I love the playfulness and energy of this piece, more so how you express this wonderful piece. There is so much music inside you.
