The incomparable Vladimir Ashkenazy! I still remember going to a rare concert at the Carnegie Hall one beautiful spring day in the '80. It was a transcendent experience and everyone in the packed Hall had glistening tears of joy. There are many great pianists but there is only one Vladimir Ashkenazy.
Amazingly I remember going to this concert. My mother taught at Essex Uni and was able to get tickets. I was only 16 then but the concert introduced me to the Beethoven piano sonatas which I have loved ever since; so much so I remember asking for the box set of the Barenbiom Beethoven sonatas for my 17th birthday!
I prefer this record of Ashkenazi to the other one of Baremboin in youtube because it sounds less round, less perfect, more rude, more agressive, in 1st movement. And it's a good contrast with 2nd.
I met Ashkenazy at a piano recital in Carmel, California over 30 years ago. His hands were out of synch with his diminutive size. His hands were the hands of a man a foot taller. It was a treat to shake his hand and thank him for keeping the MUSIC alive.
@@kakasvk As a pianist/composer my compositions are limited in technical spirit by the size of my hands. As it has been suggested, biology/anatomy dictates relative success. There are perfect swimmer bodies, perfect runner bodies, perfect rock climber bodies, and perfect musician bodies, especially hands and fingers. Ashkenazy is the exception to this rule. He hasn't the hand size of a Horowitz or Liszt or Lisitsa yet his mastery of the 88 keys is amazing. When I was still playing the music of others there were pieces I just could not play well due to having small hands. Off the top of my head I think of the third movement of the Moonlight. I mastered the easy first and second movements but the third was a huge challenge for me so I never played it well. This goes for other challenging compositions that favor large hands and long fingers.
@@GnomicMaster it's not really that super important to have big hands. Hand size is pretty overrated topic in piano world. Ashkenazy is far from only top level pianists in the world who have small hands. There are world class pianists who are reaching barely above octave. Yes, big hands give advantage over smaller hands especially for pieces that require big reaches, but there are always workarounds. Last resort being not playing omitting some pieces. On the other hand, smaller hands also give few advantages over big ones and big ones have their disadvantages too.
All you have to do is feel the music …..it’s there and it’s typical Beethoven …I think that’s why so many people and children respond to his music ……superb piano playing …..thank you for loading this ……what a phenomenal pianist
Whenever I hear the great musical wonder that was Beethoven played right, it sets my heart racing and my blood coursing through my veins. It fills me with courage, and never fails to move me. I love the man, and I love his music.
The slow movement beginning at 10:07 is profoundly beautiful! I listen to it over and over! It reaches to the depths of my soul! Bravo Beethoven and beautifully played here by Ashkenazy!
Two of my favorite interpreters of Beethoven, Wilhelm Kempf and Vladimir Ashkenazy. There are a great many fine musicians today globally but these two are my favorites.
@@retrovelcro True enough. Then again I am 70 so those are the two I grew up with. It's the same with Mozart's concertos. Growing up it was Alfred Brendl. Today I have to admit that Mitsuko Uchida brings such warmth and sensitivity to them. I still have a soft spot for Herr Brendl though.
Wilhelm Kempff Emil Gilels Radu Lupu Vladimir Ashkenazy Grigory Sokolov had More beautiful colorful piano sound for Beethoven than Pires Barenboim Arrau or Horowitz!! Dimitri Bashkirov her teacher Anastasia Virsaladze teach saying to Bashkirov the most important lesson is the love of beautiful colorful piano sound!!
I was a student at the university at the time and although not managing to get a ticket for the performance, was able to hang around in the lecture theatre throughout the afternoon rehearsal. Happy days.
Quand j'écoute ce morceau par Vladimir Ashkenazy cela me ravi me donne de la joie. La concentration extrême les doigts qui courent sur le clavier, chaque main jouant sa partition. Je mesure le travail l'engagement de l'interprète et tout ce qu'il met dans son expression de l'oeuvre lui redonnant vie et sens.
Необыкновенно вдумчивая работа пианиста. Помимо блестящей техники, огромный душевный труд. Каждую ноту пропустил через душу. Отсюда, если отчаяние -то безмерное, если ярость - то сокрушительная, если надежда, то последняя. И это усталая безнадежность умиротворения во второй части... Выдающееся исполнение !
However, Beethoven would have observed the demisemiquaver rhythm he wrote in the first few seconds of the piece and not tried to smooth out the tension of the dotted rhythm!!!!!!!
The thing that gets me the highest is the absolute singleness of purpose, the being in the moment. He' not even thinking of the next note, only the perfection of this one. Immersed in beauty, this becomes a prayer.
Then he is doing his job well. You've been captured under his spell, enthralled with each moment. However, I can assure you that Vladimir - like all musicians - is continually thinking ahead to the following notes. Failure to do so, would result in a loss of continuity which would break that spell. In fact, a pianist's fingers are often positioned ahead to the next keys, while the audience is still savoring the current notes. While enjoying such performances, we like to believe that our thoughts are directly tied to the artist's, but that is just a masterfully created illusion.
He seems to be playing this for Beethoven to him in honor of him. It has so much feeling behind his notes and his body that he is immersed in the psyche of what he feels Beethoven was in and had lived. So impressed as I have not heard of this man, having a limited exposure to classical music. Thank you You Tube for continuing these works of art for the people and Allegro films for presenting it.
This interpretation, suddenly make me felt this is a stormy. The chords are thunder and lightning , and then the melody line emerged just like heavy downfall... amazing!
@@waldektrill680 Спасибо большое! Намного чище. Не могу слышать, когда с ритма сбиваются. Вот тут лучше всех - начинается с патетической, но не одним куском.
Oh, to watch this performance is to experience again how I remember learning Beethoven growing up, listening to these true great pianists, such was Ashkenazy, Barenboim, Brendel, Gilels and indeed the legendary Arthur Schnabel, all of whom played in a bygone era that cannot, must not, be forgotten. Thank you so much for bringing back the memories!
В 10 лет я влюбилась в ,,Сурок,, Бетховена! И всю жизнь обожаю все Его произведения! СПАСИБО огромное Исполнителям! Эмиля Гилельса была у меня пластинка Ташкентского завода! !! Вот уж наслаждалась! Слушала постоянно!🙏🎶🎵🌈❤️🌹🌷
Incredible recording. Sounds like I could hear the vibration of the wires and sound board. This is the sound when I listen to my friend playing his piano.
Una interpretazione molto vicina a Beethoven e ai suoi pensieri. Bei colori e tanta Musica! Tanti auguri a Beethoven❣️ e complimenti ad Ashkenazy! Grazie 🙏
One of the most extraordinary versions played with extraordinary sensibility with exceptional touch of his hands. Nice meeting you Vladimir Ashkenazy !
La buona musica ha il potere di trasportare l'essere umano (e non solo ) su stati vibratori elevatissimi! Grazie al genio Beethoven e superba l'interpretazione di Ashkenazy.
Though Ashkenazy's continuous rhythmic quirks and manipulations can sometimes get on ones nerves - his performances are always inspired and full of spirituality. And in truth, even his constant tempo changes can be hypnotizing. These rhythmic gestures always are in the service of bringing out his well studied phrasing of these Beethoven works. I would say he is truly a masterful Beethoven interpreter.
Wow, such incredible technique AND emotion...thank-you for such an amazing career and the joy you continue to give to millions! Love the Beethoven concerto recordings too, just wonderful.
@@AsrielKujo My mom was Eileen Sanders. She performed in Town Hall and Carnegie Halls in NYC. She was a child prodigy and could recall so many great works many years later. Amazing.
In questa sonata sembra che l’autore chieda all’interprete: rendimi libero, Ashkenazy liberando dalle tenebre dell’animo quel fuoco d’amore contenuto nella sonata e mai acceso, è ora libero e consapevole di illuminare la sensibilità del pianeta per mezzo di questa meravigliosa interpretazione
I saw this said 2016 and I thought how can Ashkenazy still be so young. I saw him perform for the Louisville Orchestra many years ago. He became a conductor later. Then I scrolled down and saw this is from 1972. Now it all makes sense. His performance for us was one of the greatest I ever saw. This rendition of my favorite piece is magnificent.
I love how Ashkenazy expresses this piece. What a performance! There's something about this piano though. Maybe it's the recording, but I wonder if it was bumped a little hard when they brought onto that stage? Nah, I think it's the recording quality. I wish I could have been there.
Tengo especial apego a la Sonata nº 8, compuesta antes de su treintena y editada bajo el mote de "Pathétique", por apuntar el dolor que origina parejo alumbramiento. Desde la introducción, el grave marca la impronta de toda la sonata; cuyos silencios postreros contienen un poder expresivo que, a modo de voz en el dolor callada, realzan el tono inicial hasta encarnar la tristeza misma. Al decir de Swafford, «jamás se había escuchado un grave más grave en música que aquel que abre esta obra sobre la melancolía, la resignación y el desafío». En la interpretación lúcida de Ashkenazy, al modo de la llama que alumbra la oculta morada y la dispone al encuentro, sin mayor tregua ni turbación alguna y la deja poblar por un placer doliente. Paradoja del amor cuya inmediatez confunde pasión y dolor e impregna los seres y las cosas. Traza que el tiempo restituye en recuerdo ardiente.

Prodigy at piano. Also it’s insane how a human brain can come up with music like this. Long live Beethoven.
He's dead.
@@searchmeinyoutube he will never die :)

But Beethoven will outlive you and me and people centuries after us. His kind of music does not die, thus Beethoven lives on.

What a powerful piece. I listened to this piece for hours over and over when I was 11
Me too! At about the same age! Wow.
I'm listening to this version 2 minutes in and already I feel like my body is tingling with some strange sensation. The dynamics are so beautiful.
I hope I can be good enough to play this piece one day as it is one of my favourite pieces
«Какая глубина! Какая смелость и какая стройность! Ты,......, бог…»
what an amazing performance
