  • I thought I had put this video online a long time ago but I can't find it. So I'm (re?)posting it now, because it's a wonder. Who better than Yuja Wang is capable of this perfect blend of joyful vitality and crystalline precision, of rigor and exuberance?

    Absolutely astounding and extraordinary! The clarity! It’s simply fire- Yuga’s performance. She’s simply the greatest pianist of our age! My opinion, but I’m sure I’m not alone in believing this!

    One cannot find the words. A she-devil at work, an angel on fire, a marvel of perfection, and a striking beauty ... all in one.

    I enjoyed that. She has not much smaller hands than me and I noticed she did not do the octave left hand glissandi in the last part. I used to play through this as a teenager in the 1950s and I was always frustrated that I could not do those. It needs a gigantic hand to avoid ripping off skin. I think I would grind to a halt after two pages now. Yuja is fabulous.

    Excellent. She simplified the score at places and added notes from the orchestral too.

      That's what makes Yuja even more of a talent. She's able to think outside the box. Her role is to interpret the music, not recite it. She make her performances her own. Another pianist very gifted at this is Maria Joao Pires.

      Although I can't say she adds or subtracts notes to the score; however she interprets the score in a most magnificent way;

      @@JoeLinux2000 I agree except for the "outside the box": adding / substracting notes is very common, and rather easy because the original score (for orchestra) is particularly rich, it's easy (in the sense one do not have to invent/imagine the notes) to arrange it. A. Rubinstein did his own transcription of the piece, it's kind of the most different of all "Petrouchka for piano". Others added parts that are not at all in the "transcription"; the "" are because Stravinsky wanted the piece to be considered not as a transcription but as a piano piece, even if the making of it involves a transcription.
      This Semaine grasse is one of the most interesting I could listen to. My other favorite ones are Michel Beroff's and Pollini's one.

      Thank you for your interest. The transcription is by Stravinski himself. It was dedicated to Arthur Rubinstein.

      I too would like a better resolution. But it is not up to me. As for the score, it does not subtract anything from the image, and I dare to hope that it brings something to the listener!
