I’m committing these pieces to memory right now and I can tell you, they’re much more difficult pieces to play well than they sound. Zimmerman makes it sound easy. Beautiful job! I’m taking notes. I love the way he brings out the melody lines. Tempos are perfect. Nothing overdone. Simple and direct.
what I love about Schubert is that it is always about finding the most divine beautiful rather than showcasing the pianist's virtuosity. Authenticity, character and humility vs the ego.
@@therealrealludwigvanbeethoven I absolutely love Liszt, and he never modulates "easily", but rather in very complex, elegant, emotional and surprising ways.
I really cannot play piano, but muddled through this piece, and this passage, so often when I was younger. The lyricism and harmonies are so robust that you can play this Impromptu very poorly and the beauty still manages to come through... at least to the person playing :)
Kyle, I can't help noticing seeing you more and more on classical recordings video, and I was wondering if perhaps you had in idea to play more classical pieces on your channel ?
zimerman's playing makes me hear new possibilities in music i've heard for so long. something about his interpretations is so special and unique to me. i love that feeling
I love music, I love this channel, I love Schubert and I love Zimerman. I was reading the comments and remembered one of the most beautiful praises I've read from one composer to another. It's Liszt about Schubert, and I think it sums up what we all think: "Such is the spell of of your emotional world that it very nearly blinds us to the greatness of your craftsmanship." No words.
that is some amazingly amazing praise... and coming from Liszt... and it is so on point that its scary how well these geniuses understood the emotional plane
Bryan Ho I laughed so hard reading that. Fur Elise? Moonlight Sonata? Second & Third movement of Pathetique? The first movement of Sonata 31? Symphonies No. 3 and No. 9? Tempest 3rd movement? Waldstein 3rd movement? Apassionata 2nd movement? Violin Sonata No. 9?
There are those who would argue he does. Pathetique and Moonlight sonata are very melodic, but then again there is no right answer because this is all based on personal taste. For me personally, Chopin surpasses Beethoven AND Schubert when it comes to being endowed with the 'gift of melody' but I'm sure there are many who would disagree as well.
Beethoven dealt with elements other than melody mostly. Honestly, I'm not sure why one would cite Beethoven as an excellent example of a melodist - perhaps Brahms, with his brief motivic quips (though he might be pushing the label), or Rachmaninoff, with his sweeping harmonies, or Tchaikovsky, with his beautiful and original expressions.
WHen I was very young, and just starting piano lessons, one of my Dad's grad students, who was an amateur pianist, came over to our house and was playing the G-flat impromptu. he'd brought sheet music with him, and I remember being mesmerized by the gentle flow of the piece and the sight of the notes on the page. I didn't learn it myself until I was 19. I'm 48 now and the impromptus never get old. They remain some of my favorite pieces of music, especially the G-flat, C minor, and op. 142/1 from the other set. Zimerman's performance is terrific. I like that he doesn't play the C minor very fast; it gives the music space.
This is without question the finest performance of these much-played pieces I've ever heard. They go directly to the heart of Schubert's luminous spirit with a delicacy that shimmers while never losing sight of their drama. A thousand times thousand kudos, Mr. Zimerman, and to everyone involved in this wonderful recording.
Brilliant as always. Zimerman's timbre, voicing, dynamics, touch, always appropriate rubato, stylistic contrast, and incredible control and variability of articulation are the golden keys to his interpretation of this Schubert.
The way how schubert plays between the tonic and the related regions at the beginning is indeed outstanding. Further on, the play becomes more complex, but all begins with these ambiguities. The pianist is fabulous since he takes these harmonic changes into account in intensity, attack, speed, etc.
Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to synchronize these pieces to the sheet music, it adds an extra dimension to their appreciation in so many ways :)
Zimerman's swiftness in the First reminds us that the tempo is indeed Allegro. His articulation is crisp with impeccable voicing (0:24, 0:50, etc.); so refreshing.
I showed these to my non-classical friend so I could listen to th for the first time. I said he really liked them. Later he tried searching for this video again to have another listen. He came to me saying he couldn't find the video. He said he typed in "Impromp 2" for "Impromptu" ...
These Impromptu are literally masterpiece, Schubert is such as underrated composer. I usually only listen to Chopin, Liszt and Rach music and I discovered Schubert. I'm now listening to all of him symphonies and Impromptus
Thank you... for preparing this, and especially for that first phrase in your Intro. Even though there are giants of music... Schubert has a dimension that I have yet to find in any other composer and of course Zimmerman's interpretation honors that so thank to him as well!
Not able to get to a piano right now, but have played for years. I doubt you, and the others who post these score videos, understand just how valuable they are as a resource. And I know they're not the easiest videos to create, so, Thanks!
00:00 -- No.1, C minor. A set of variations on two themes, even though you'll notice that the second theme is based on the first, with more widely-spaced intervals. 09:06 -- No.2, E-flat major. The link between the first E-flat major and B minor themes is especially ingenious, and strangely obvious once you've spotted it: the second B minor theme is based rhythmically on the implied accents in the structure of the A section (1!231!231!2!3!1!23). 13:55 -- No.3, G-flat major. A study in muted and utterly compelling lyricism. 20:16 -- No.4, A-flat major. A dialogue between gently cascading arpeggios and murmuring chordal responses. The richly brooding middle section ventures into the major mode towards its conclusion, but dramatically reverts to the minor.
George Beckingham as does Horowitz whom I love to hear playing this. I much prefer it this speed. This is, after all, Romantic and should not be rushed through mechanically.
Zimerman has incredible hearing. Listen closely to how he perfectly timed the gradual fading of the G octaves with the beginning of the next note (B in the treble), in pianissimo, no less.
Fermata does not mean "Hold as long as you see fit" If you have a half note, you should hold for an extra quarter. So it's half the value added to the note. Concert Band/orchestral/voice are different. The meaning can even change per composer and time period. Hold as long as you see fit would definitely be a 21st or 20th century perspective.
Thank you so much for providing the music to follow along. This is way beyond my ability level, but my dad used to play these when I was small and I would sit under the piano to listen. The fourth impromptu is my favorite. I like being able to read the music visually as well as hear it.
Thanks for this. The third one is especially beautiful. Sounds almost Liszt-like (or perhaps I should say the introspective Liszt sounds almost Schubert-like in his approach at times).
Liszt's Liebestraum no.3 and Schuberts impromptu no.3 are quite similiar. Schubert's impromptu is a little simpler and repetitive in my opnion. Both beautiful.
why must it be played faster for it to be convincing? Zimmerman made every single element of the 3rd impromptu very clear, clearer than many other versions out there.
Such a beautiful melody... impromptu no 3. Like Liszt with Un Sospiro, and Chopin with Op10 no 3. ALL of Schuberts impromptus are beautiful, and rank as my favourite pieces in all solo pianoforte.
Schubert não cessa de surpreender-me por mais que eu conheça as suas obras. Espanto-me com o génio com que conseguiu encontrar a sua própria voz absolutamente original num tempo e num meio em que dominava a grandeza de Beethoven.
Impromptu No. 3 has occupied the last 6 months of my life. I will finally get my first piano lesson in a little over a week. Everything else I acquired from my group piano class as a music major. This piece, as beautiful as it may be, is a bear. If I had $1 for every time that I screwed up 15:28... anyway, I still can't play the B section (if you analyze this piece as ABA) to save my life, which is why whenever I run this piece I only run what I can play at tempo (that being the A section). Even though this piece is incredibly frustrating at times, I cannot help but get goosebumps even after playing it hundreds of times.
It doesn't seem it but it's relentless, your right hand just NEVER stops (except at the short fermata) and he floats around various keys so much. It's been in my rotation for a while too but I don't know that I've ever played it beginning to end satisfyingly enough to play it in front of others.
had a mystical experience the first time I heard the trio in A flat maj., also what made me think Schubert was leaping over the void touching the nerve of human loneliness
Me gusta mucho, por la profundidad del sonido (el piano es muy bueno) y los acordes bajos de la mano izquierda. ¡Además, la melodía es muy hermosa! Hay muchas "variaciones" sobre una misma. (Estoy hablando sobre la Impromptus 1)
If you notice carefully, Zimerman has a habit of humming while he plays a piece such as 7:45 or somewhere before. The same is with his performance of Ballade No.4. What an interesting habit
I’m committing these pieces to memory right now and I can tell you, they’re much more difficult pieces to play well than they sound. Zimmerman makes it sound easy. Beautiful job! I’m taking notes. I love the way he brings out the melody lines. Tempos are perfect. Nothing overdone. Simple and direct.
nice comment but Zimmerman kinda means "Room guy" which doesn't mean anything 😅. So it's Zimerman ;)
Zimmerman=Roomman
Zimerman=legend
the pros always make it sound easy... Zimermann never plays too fast or out of control. impeccable balance.
We don't realize how difficult it is to play well
what I love about Schubert is that it is always about finding the most divine beautiful rather than showcasing the pianist's virtuosity. Authenticity, character and humility vs the ego.
22:45 is by far my favorite part of the 4th impromptu. So. Much. Emotion.
Also really fun to play!
Reminds me a of the double tempo section of Chopin's nocturne op 48 no. 1
I love how effortlessly Schubert moves around to different keys. Wonderfull pieces of music. Great performance!
I don't think any composer was able to modulate through keys as easily as Schubert...Chopin being the only other one on his level.
@@brandonwarweg3622*Liszt as well.
@@therealrealludwigvanbeethoven I absolutely love Liszt, and he never modulates "easily", but rather in very complex, elegant, emotional and surprising ways.

Makes me cry 😭
it's a wonderful use of the major 7th. lots of interesting dissonance in this piece.
probably one of the most tender passages I've ever heard
also its played in a different key at 6:24
I really cannot play piano, but muddled through this piece, and this passage, so often when I was younger. The lyricism and harmonies are so robust that you can play this Impromptu very poorly and the beauty still manages to come through... at least to the person playing :)

The 3rd impromptu is one of the most beautiful things I have EVER heard. It reminds me of the ocean. NOT talking about Chopin's Op 25 No 12 Etude.

No other composer combines simplicity with profound beauty better than Schubert.
Beethoven?
He's close but doesn't have the same gift of melody as Schubert.
