  • Aimi playing the first movement of Beethoven's Waldstein sonata at the 16th M&P's Tea concert, Nagoya, Japan. The recital was given on 25 October 2009, a month after her 14th birthday.
    Sorry about the poor colour quality of the facing camera. The original image is almost entirely pinky-rose (mis-set white spot), so we did the best we could to bring it round the colour wheel.

    Beautifully nuanced playing. I like how Aimi never seemed to lose sight of the "big picture" of the piece. Thanks for sharing this.

    How wonderful to stumble upon these beautiful quality and recent clips of Aimi performing my favorite Beethoven sonata! She has matured the performance about a year before this one - I think there is better concentration and more restraint in appropriate places, without compromising her unique sound or expressiveness. I hope I will be able to attend her Carnegie Hall performance!
    @FailedViolinist: I don't understand those comments either... Aimi's unique interpretative skill are her strength!.

    Watching the video if you have a sensibily that goes beyond the technique you can discover Aimi as a unique corp with the instrument and can be understood even without watching....She is wonderful and he gentle trait is unique. She is caressing the board and you can here the single note anyway without exasperate the technique as Master Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli used to do...Aimi express love this is the difference that makes her unique.

    @elrondsch/@fredricfranc - If the music is so important, but you don't like her manner of performance, then just shut your eyes. She's incredible, a prodigy, and they set their own rules, don't pay much attention to yours. You'd bitch if your manna was 15 minutes late, or you had to walk an extra 25 yards for it!

  • @holden4th
    @holden4th 6 років тому +1

    Some inconsistencies that she needs to work on to bring her playing up to scratch.
    balance between the left and right hands - the right drowns out the left at times and the L lacks real articulation
    Being able to effectively and slowly decrescendo (not loud one note then soft the next) which is so important in this sonata
    Softer hands - there's an element of bash here that reminds me of Lang Lang
    Yes, she was only 14 and hopefully her teachers will work on this.

    • @mareksobieraj5390

  • @elrondsch
    @elrondsch 13 років тому

    Played well... But I am in a huge opposition to this kind of "movementship" on stage. I prefer the Richter approach to it: total darkness in the hall and the only light is on the score(if there is one). No movement or face expression - there is nothing to see=) Music is not on your face or in your movements=) Its in the sound=)

  • @ershenlin1774
    @ershenlin1774 9 років тому +1

    Compare this with Serena Wang on "Beethoven Waldstein 1st mvt (8 years old)". Same music. Serena show no emotion at all whatsoever, and only minimal body movement until the end. Aimi displays great maturity and control here, and I don't mind her body movements. But her recent face-making in the Chopin competition is too much for me. The video shooting here was terrible, cannot even show her face clearly.

    Well played but too fast. This piece should time out at around 11 minutes. To rush it into no more than 9 minutes isn't "playing the piece as written," it's just showing off...and not in a good way.
