This is one of the most remarkable performances on piano ever put on record, right up there with Fleisher's Brahms Concertos with Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra. This is Pollini at the height of his powers in the mid 70's. His control over color and dynamic shadings is truly amazing.
This Pollini recording, and Richter's version, both leave me in amazement every time I hear them. Schubert himself would tremble at the power and control.
Well, Schubert couldn't play it. When he tried it out in one of his friends' meetings, he stopped half way through, and said in exasperation, "Well, the Devil can play the rest of it!"
@@fabiopaolobarbieri2286 Шуберт тогда, вероятно, читал с листа, без предварительных занятий. Думаю, если бы он хотел исполнить эту фантазию публично в концерте, то хорошенько бы позанимался и преодолел бы техническую трудность, на которой споткнулся в тот вечер. И остановился он не на полпути, а лишь в четвëртой части. То, что он преодолел трудности первых трëх частей, говорит о нëм как об опытном пианисте
The Adagio second section of the Wanderer Fantasie is the part of this piece that moves me the most. Adagios are always where Schubert displays his deeply haunting and profound sublimity. Maurizio Pollini's calm mastery is what makes this my favorite performance of Schubert's Wanderer Fantasie.
Pollini's performance of the allegro in particular inspired me to play. It was, moronically, the first piano piece I attempted to learn. I've heard many performances. This is the one that compels me.
It takes a really high grade of creativity to perform with such a perfect technique, as you said. Could you imagine Cortot worrying about how not to false a tone, if not miss completely some keys, while performing arpeggios from the 3rd tempo? Pollini could. This is creativity, in my opinion, since he could decide exactly how he wanted to play every note. Real musicians are every one who can play music at this level!! Your favorite musician, it's another affair...
I admit to know a little about Trifonov's, only some video on tube, and he didn't impress me. You know, tastes are tastes. I actually think that Pollini's rendition of Chopin's Etude is widely considered top level (it's not for ever, but it's a long time since), his Prokofiev 7th and Boulez 2nd sonata, some of Beethoven's sonatas... I don't have problems with different tastes, but one cannot pretend that Pollini will not be considered for his influence in the history of interpretation.
Thank you VERY much for that comment, because I discovered Katchen through it...heard his first notes of the "Wanderer" and think this is how Schubert should be played...
Ich habe dieses Werk von Schubert in meiner Jugend rauf und runter gehört, es ist so grossartig interpretiert von Mauzi Polli ❤
Bellisimo Pollini 🇲🇽. 🙏🎹😭
Superb. He makes the piano really sing.
Best performance ever heard. Pollini here is simply perfect.
Totally agree. Never bettered but there are some wonderful version s now.
For me no doubt one of the best performances of the Wanderer Fantasie!
Clarity, passionate commitment … Pollini brought this magnificent work by Schubert to the heights ! One of the great interpretations of Pollini !
20--------24. 🇲🇽👏👏🥇🎹 Diviino.
grazie maestro.. lei fa onore alla musica e all'-Italia. ..
Sublime

so good to see Friederich's Wanderer above the sea of fog associated to this gorgeous piece !
the greatest virtuoso I'd call him.

Simply outstanding 😍 brilliant performance!!! Also one of Schuberts best 👍

Absolutely marvellous performance by Pollini. If I had to recommend one recording of the many I've heard over the years, this would be it.
Recuerdo de infancia. ❤❤❤
The best performance ever. :-)
This interpretation is of course one of the best, his control of the sound ist absolutely incredible!
avec brendel et lipatti
His control of the sound is absolutely incredible, I agree, but the music is very boring and the playing mechanical.
What a great way to wake up!!!!
I'd rather say he is one of the greatest virtuosi of our time.
Maurizio Pollini, lothbury0, merci... trop beau
Mightily impressive, and not just technique-wise. Solid and subtle musicianship, too. Surely one of the great recordings of this extraordinary work.
From 8:37 till 9 :26 unreal beautiful and magnificent!
Thanks.
Thank you very much for posting!
Wunderschön! DANKE

qui est là à cause d'un manuel de français ? moi xD
Show Musik. Schwer zu spielen, aber keine emotion dahinter. Aus meiner Sicht...
Impossible to do better than this
hmm... I think Katchen has a better interpretation then pollini... however, not bad, but to "clean"...
Thank you VERY much for that comment, because I discovered Katchen through it...heard his first notes of the "Wanderer" and think this is how Schubert should be played...
It begins a fraction late. He has already started the first chord, and it sounds rushed. This arouses my displeasure
se cae a pedasos la cancion esta
This's rather good. I usually think Pollini is too fast.
+a54109 "Rather good"????... It's one of the best performances of this piece, absolutely!
Hanon Schubert.... Difficile e bruttino...
Per mio gusto meglio altre cose
