This whole performance brought me tears I never thought I'd see a woman of colour play classical piano it gives me hope to continue my musical studies at Trinity college thank you so much thank you🥺🥺🥺🥺 I can't express how much this means to me as their have been many racist people who have thought bad of me practicing thank you Isata
I went to Trinity. I don't know why the colour of someone's skin should dictate what music they are allowed to play? White people play the blues don't they?
Nooo you must go on !! Think to the very very great black diva in the opera....there are many ....nowadays the first dancer in the Opera in Paris is a young beautiful and very kind black dancer ! Time are changing....it also depends on you ! No fear and go on !
Isata is a passionate player! It does bother me that people think of Clara Schumann as some sort of sideline composer. Her work has its own voice and makes its own statement. So many people think this about women composers. First of all her name is Clara Wieck. She married Robert Schumann and then added his name. He ought to have added hers. She was the pre-eminent pianist of her time and without her Brahms and her own husband would've not become who they were to become. I listen to the way Isata peforms her work and she really brings out something amazing and special in it-- that is to say the unique voice of Clara herself. (AT least from my POV)
I'm reading a Brahms bio right now, and that's why i ended up here. Everything you said matches the book....and much more. She had an impossible road, but she met every challenge. At times, she carried both Schumann and Brahms, relentlessly championing and performing their works, while being a single mom of 7 children, and composing her own works. Unbelievable.
Yes I am reading Clara Schumann by Steegman. Essentially her father didn't want her to marry Robert because Clara's career was stronger and he knew their marriage would put her in the background. She had already toured and met many famous composers in her teenage years. It was her who would play some of Robert's music in private settings to try to promote him. She also was incredibly strong during their marriage seeing as Robert had many mental health issues.
Oh. Tell me about it. She is. Clara, and Felix Mendelssohn's sister Fannie. Both were totally ignored for the most part during their time, and it was remarkably sad, TBH.
Thank you so much, Justin, for alerting us to that beautiful passage - very brief, but scintillating and so delicately nuanced! Isata is wonderful. ~ Michael
Amazing….. my bedtime music for this evening.. beautifully played and yes, l do believe Clara Schumann is very underrated…. A fabulous composer in a time women weren’t…sad….. her music is wonderful…..and played like this…SPECTACULAR….. bravo Isata…
Brava! This is my first hearing of ANY Clara Schumann work, and I don't know whether Isata's interpretation is influencing my perception, but I greatly look forward to hearing more of both! DOUBLE brava!! 😁🎼🎶💯❤
Fantastic, still listening, weeks later. What a discovery, its so emotional and touching. To be honest, it grabs me more than most of her (Clara Schuman's) husband's work...
From awe to pride to tears to fabulous awe, what a truly amazing human being to have this passionate, meticulously interpreted, story-telling music flow through her and touch us this way. Thank you for posting. Looking forward to more from her.
Watching and listening to this young girl so talented brings memories of similar feelings about young Martha Argerich. I didn't see the Argentinian pianist wearing white sneakers, but from there up are strong similarities, the same smooth technique and expressiveness. This is also the first time I hear some composition by Clara Schumann, and I find it very pleasant.
@@princelaugh-a-lot5551 It would make a lot of sense for her to have influence from both, as she greatly admired Chopin and not only did she and Robert have the same piano/composition teacher, Robert taught and helped her in her early stages of composing. While she certainly has a very individual voice and style, Chopin's and Robert's influence on her is undeniable
Great talent. I didn't know that piece. Who says that Clara Schumann was a sideline composer, none of it all. She was a great musician.. Tank you for uploading
Clara wasn't a "sideline" composer. She was a great child prodigy in piano and composing. She sacrificed her career to raise her family and take care of her husband - Robert Schumann -who was seriously ill and eventually died in an asylum. She went back to concertiizing and showcasing her husband's music after his death well into her late seventies. She wasn't a "sideline" composer. She is to be admired all these years later!
So sweet and smooth touch Like clouds moved gently By a gentle warm breeze of the wind Were colour is no issue Just beauty what I feel When I close my eyes No judgement All I hear Is a pearl playing And leave my heart In sweet tears

Playing music has nothing to do with your physical appearance, just close your eyes and listen.

From mine as well. 💜🎹💜
She was one of several preeminent pianists of her time. FTFY

ew cringe feminist comment hahahahaha. u mad???? keep crying hahahaha dumb feminist
The way she played the same phrase at the start twice but they sounded completely different. Amazing
This is sublime. Recently studied the Romantic period. Clara Schumann seems under-rated.
Oh. Tell me about it. She is. Clara, and Felix Mendelssohn's sister Fannie. Both were totally ignored for the most part during their time, and it was remarkably sad, TBH.
I really can’t get enough of those beautifully nuanced sections from 0:18 to 0:25
Absolutely beautiful and heartfelt. That sensitivity...is so lovely.

Not a piece I know, but wow! Such a talented musician, so expressive.
Amazing work of Clara Schumann, wonderful interpretation by Isata. Added to my playlist.
Amazing. She is one of tomorrow's piano superstars.
Tomorrow's.....? She is now.
@@jimcates2521 I'm delighted to hear that.
Haven't stopped listen to Classic FM since watching Isata and her incredible family on Christmas Day.
Beautiful, amazing, soul-shaking! I believe Clara Schumann Wieck would be impressed. Bravissima, maestra Isata 👏💖 !
Would be so incredible to be able to hear Clara play this piece...her own!
...und wie schön der langsame Mittelteil, ich krieg Gänsehaut... Tolles Stück, tolle Interpretation.
Look at her, she is LIVIN right now
Everything is beautiful here, the music, the musician, the passion. I love it.
I felt the notes of this piece resonate within. Clara Schumann's work is superbly played here by Isata Kanneh-Mason!
Восхитительно!! И технично и с душой, все так чистенько!!! Браво!
Divine! Incredible! Thank you! Such sensitivity and depth of feeling, wisdom, technical mastery-wonderful!
Amazing….. my bedtime music for this evening.. beautifully played and yes, l do believe Clara Schumann is very underrated…. A fabulous composer in a time women weren’t…sad….. her music is wonderful…..and played like this…SPECTACULAR….. bravo Isata…
Beautiful playing with elegance. This is what makes the piano so beautiful. Beautiful enough to make people shed tears of joy
A lovely practitioner of Clara Schumann works. excellent.
What exquisite music-making by a sensitive and gifted pianist! A worthy complement to the magical spiritual and artistic essence of Clara Schumann!
Amazing interpretation, technique, tone, musicality....this pianist is AMAZING!! I’m so glad UA-cam suggested this piece to me!
Brava! This is my first hearing of ANY Clara Schumann work, and I don't know whether Isata's interpretation is influencing my perception, but I greatly look forward to hearing more of both!
DOUBLE brava!! 😁🎼🎶💯❤
Gorgeous music, gorgeous playing.
You go girl! Magnificent!!!
Fantastic, still listening, weeks later. What a discovery, its so emotional and touching. To be honest, it grabs me more than most of her (Clara Schuman's) husband's work...
You are so right! She is very special It's like the music and her is united!
Superb!🥰❤
incredibly beautiful played
i love how she brought out the melody at 0:47

it's wonderful after 200 years to know Clara's music is still remembered and cherished...this young lady has a great career ahead of her....
She probably didn't sport dreadlocks either - but it wouldn't have been the Argentinean thing to do, I s'pose...
@@PeterBrodie These are braids not dreadlocks
toscanaremi, thanks for correcting me. I need to learn the difference between them!👍
wonderfully talented young woman
Ms. Isata you are a gift from Haven. Your expression and rubato are exquisite. Definitely something I want to hear often. Brava
Just beautiful..a wonderful pianist
Magnificento! (Bowing to the Queen)
Love me some Isata!
"Absolutely Love It".....🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿❗💪🏿
Got this on repeat! Beautiful and moving, thank you 👍
Gorgeous and expressive! making that piano sing. Bravo!
Very beautiful. It sounds like a combination of Schumann and Chopin.
And Mendelssohn! :)
It's not a combination of anything. It's Clara Schumann doing her thing
And Camille Saint-Saens.

nobody SAYS it but how often are her works programmed?

I saw her live yesterday... IT was magnificent ❤
So sweet and smooth touch
Like clouds moved gently
By a gentle warm breeze of the wind
Were colour is no issue
Just beauty what I feel
When I close my eyes
No judgement
All I hear
Is a pearl playing
And leave my heart
In sweet tears
Great expression! Fantastic performance :)
Mrs.Isata Wonder Woman!!!!!!💐💐💐💐💐💐💐🌷🌸🌻🎆

음색이 완전 담백하다
Refreshing
I like the sneakers! I say where what you need to wear to be comfortable.
Это прекрасно
Bravissima!
Came here after watching Heart Of The Keys, stayed for a suрerb рerformance!
Zo gevoelig gespeeld, wat een expressie ...schitterend!
와우..wow
So who influenced who?
Did Clara influence Robert or the other way around?
The logical answer is that both both influenced one another.
nice playing
that shoe....... mann
❤️❤️
Here thanks to the game Ben and Ed and it's a really chill soundtrack
Black Gurl Magic
She doesn’t look like Katherine Hepburn but she’s really playing this piece
all i can say is wwwwwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwww
Finally black classical pianist, not jazz
selamaleykum 7b
Even less famous to rare classical pieces written by a 19th century Romanticist classical musical era German woman.
Very imptessive.

These girls seem to play all the instruments, not sure which is which :-)! But they grew up, mummy should buy them ladies' shoes.
