1:45 - 2:45 some of the most beautiful lines ever written... calm before the storm. or perhaps the good times in life before the inevitable drama occurs
Muy bien! Muchos emonsiones ! Puedo escribir en ruso' Мне понравилось, столько чувств. Мне показалось, что не хватает верхнего голоса во второй части( аккордовой) Но так эмоционально сыгранно Bravo Yundi Li!!!
Thats my opinion so its totally subjective but i think its a bit too fast... wath its beautifull with nocturnes of Chopin is the bel canto style... and Chopin put so much things into it and if you play it too fast you cant play with all of that and his singing style. I dont say its really bad playing, i just says its not my favorite and yes Yundi li is a very very good pianist no doubt on that...
A profound level of understanding Chopin`s nocturne is his nocturne is NOT all for relaxing and romantic. Chopin`s nocturne has deep and rich emotion as well as tension. this Op48 No1 is one of the nocturne extremely express Chopin`s sorrow, love , and hate like his Ballade. Most people treat Chopin not fairly enough because they just can not understand him.
Hi SKubric, I absolutely agree with you and in addition to the rich emotion of sorrow, love and hate, this Op. 48 No. 1 also has a reflection components among the tension of the above complex emotions. Because of that, I completely agree with Etienne Delaunois that I prefer this piece to be played a bit slower than Yundi played. A slower speed allows that reflectionary emotion to sink in and to truly feel the sorrow, the love, and maybe the hate, deeply embedded in the melody.
Why the studio they use this Steinway...sound and voice it's not work for play anything... Studio it must to repair auction system all inside this Steinway hurry up
Not everyone has the "entertainment value" factored into their essence. It takes quite a person to strike a solid and heavy balance. Not saying I know who "Lang Lang" is, nor do I care. But I'll safely assume this is the case, as is typical of human life.
A fine performance until the "doppio movimento" section which is taken WAY too fast! This is a nocturne, not an etude - and "Doppio movimento" means "double substance, not double time. This is a failing of many younger artists. Compare this interpretation with that of Maria Joao Pires which is magical!
It's the recording silly. I do agree with some viewers here that perhaps Yundi played it too fast and not deliberate enough. Martha rules this piece, though the two Valentina's interpretations are also very captivating.
Yundi Li is on a different level than Lang Lang. It takes quite a pianist to win the Chopin competition. Lang Lang has done no such thing. Lang Lang lacks musical maturity.
I appreciate both Yundi Li and Lang Lang. There are indeed very different but unique in their own right. At first glance Lang Lang seems to just bang the piano but upon more listening he does play with thoughtout musicality, and his performance brings a sense of spirited excitement. Yundi Li on the other hand seems more delicate and restrained and his performance brings out a sublime lyricism. Both no doubt possess virtuosic technique and I guess it's up to individual preference whom one likes. As to winning a major international piano competition yes it is an honor and does say something about the winner in term of piano virtuosity. But it doesn't mean that a pianist who does not win (or participate in the case of Lang Lang and Yuja Wang) a major competition is "less" in some way. As the matter of fact a lot of the renowned pianists did not win a major piano competition and many of those who won over the years did not become well known concertizing pianists.
Lang Lang didn’t win the Chopin competition because he wasn’t even allowed to compete. Neither was Yuja Wang. They were so good that Gary Graffman didn’t allow them to waste their time with it. Because he knew their talent shouldn’t be wasted down to just being known as winners of the Chopin competition. He knew their careers could go farther beyond the competitions fame limitations and would you look. Lang Lang and Yuja Wang are far more internationally popular then Yundi Li. (No slack to him) he’s also great. Just not comparable to Lang Lang and Yuja.
+The Bride of Sevenless ?????? I think you might be a class-less lesbian... And if he is gay or tri-sexual??? what is it to you my dear??? Just curious...Joanne
Well dearie...don't want to sound ungracious...but what does it matter if he is gay or not...??? He certainly have achieved much more than our heterosexual men... On the other hand...i don't know you but your comment certainly shows distasteful signs of narrow-minded mentality... Are you that bitter my dear?...On the other hand...please be careful...remember what happened to Anita Bryant...(she got pied on National TV in the 70's for being such a closed minded little woman) Don't pull another Anita Bryant...
normally Yundi plays on the Hamburg Steinway, however, you can see by the square cheeks that this is a NY Steinway. I always like to say that any piano is only as good as its technician. I don't think the recording setup sounds very good, either. :(
Concert halls have excellent acoustics. So do top class recording studios. This studio is not very good, that's why the sound is bad. Even a good piano will sound mediocre with bad acoustics
Thats my opinion so its totally subjective but i think its a bit too fast... wath its beautifull with nocturnes of Chopin is the bel canto style... and Chopin put so much things into it and if you play it too fast you cant play with all of that and his singing style.

Beautiful performance by a true Chopin expert. Thanks Yundi Li for sharing your gift!
At home, in jeans, Lundi still the best interpretation of Chopin! ❤
l love your music so much l want you to come korea and play some good music for us l really like your chopin ♡♡♡
Ouch! Right at the peak. I've been there, keep going!
Beautiful Chopin playing.
1:45 - 2:45 some of the most beautiful lines ever written... calm before the storm. or perhaps the good times in life before the inevitable drama occurs
definition of art!!!
masterpiece
They are not even in the same category. Yundi is a brilliant pianist..
Eres el más maravilloso pianista del mundo 🎉😊
Thank you. Let me repeat. Thank you.
Let me repeat again. Thank.
Again and Again.
How can he play so sadly and perfectly?.. i 'm only shocked after watching..That's wonderful
beautifully done.
The only Chinese pianist that I like.
Maravilhoso pianista !!!!!!!!!!
good!
ユンディさんのショパンはこの曲はＣＤで聴いていますが見るのは初めてです。
I am crying.....
Muy bien! Muchos emonsiones ! Puedo escribir en ruso' Мне понравилось, столько чувств. Мне показалось, что не хватает верхнего голоса во второй части( аккордовой) Но так эмоционально сыгранно Bravo Yundi Li!!!
Clean.....with emotion....

4:03, should be strong or weak?
That’s an impossible question
A good pianist has to move himself first. Yundi Li did it.
3:09 Whelp there goes the buildup
Ketexon lmao
Agree!!! :)
The quality of work is disappointing when you consider the level of excellence Yundi Li has performed in other works.
lang"s personality is disgusting
li is much genuine
agreed

Arthur Rubinstein has the best interpretation of this piece
good
@DickKnowsBest me tooo make me sad sometime so beautiful chopin music check 72 no 1 awww
my words..
it's about the media
can someone help me. i cant breath when listening
steinway B
@DickKnowsBest yeahhh i love all chopin 4 ever
Big
is he crying?
good techinque! but some "dim. e piú rall." are not played as well (specially at the last of the 3rd movement.
This piece is not in movements. it is in 3 sections.
Bosendorfer?
No, NY Steinway model B-211.
Pretty shabby practise-room piano. Jangly and out of tune in spots. They should hve done better for this great artist.
I meant as musicians. Otherwise, they could both be from Jupiter, for all I care.
Too fast, on that high point
Define better! I mean: in this context. Not a broad meaningless philosophical definition!
A fine performance until the "doppio movimento" section which is taken WAY too fast! This is a nocturne, not an etude - and "Doppio movimento" means "double substance, not double time. This is a failing of many younger artists. Compare this interpretation with that of Maria Joao Pires which is magical!
i am a huge fan of Yundi but i think he truly messed up on this piece, it was too fast and a bit loose after 3:26, Valentina Lisitsa does it better
The emotion has been built up and try not to lose it before reach the piont. This is His style.
CHRIS CHAN This is an infinitely better performance of this piece by yundi ua-cam.com/video/ybBWb9IAWVE/v-deo.html
+CHRIS CHAN Lisitsa butchers the piece, but the performance Dean posted is indeed infinitely better. Rubinstein still plays it the best
james stordock Arrau's interpretation is also good
@@james1458256 Rubenstein is overrated.
趕收工？
i prefer rubinstein
It's the recording silly. I do agree with some viewers here that perhaps Yundi played it too fast and not deliberate enough. Martha rules this piece, though the two Valentina's interpretations are also very captivating.
what a abd play! i really prefere the lugansky one
Very well done, however I firmly believe Tamas Vasary's rendition is unserpassed maybe only by Chopin himself
This t-shirt and jeans suit this piece like an ox to a carriage.
i hope your kidding
lol.
no way, valentina lisitsa
Wayyyy too fast!
Yundi Li is on a different level than Lang Lang. It takes quite a pianist to win the Chopin competition. Lang Lang has done no such thing. Lang Lang lacks musical maturity.
Hahaha wtf?
Lang lang is so much better😂
This is so bad for lang lang
Yundi li is not..so good
He is normal good pianist
I appreciate both Yundi Li and Lang Lang. There are indeed very different but unique in their own right.

I don't like the sound of this piano!
It's probably the mics or the mic placement.
ian turner Indeed, a lot of factors may influence the recording =). Nothing like a live concert! :D
I think he is gay. BTW is he from Taiwan?
No, he is from China.
+The Bride of Sevenless ?????? I think you might be a class-less lesbian... And if he is gay or tri-sexual??? what is it to you my dear???
Just curious...Joanne
he comes from mainland china
Well dearie...don't want to sound ungracious...but what does it matter if he is gay or not...??? He certainly have achieved much more than our heterosexual men...
On the other hand...i don't know you but your comment certainly shows distasteful signs of narrow-minded mentality...

lol i saw you on an other video, you said the pianist luganski look gay
What butcher has build this piano? Awful sound.

Shame on him
Both Asian.
