    Some of the best classical improvisation I’ve ever heard. Astonishing! It makes me wonder how the great master such as Beethoven and Liszt improvised back in the day.

    c'est un original au caractère difficile, mais quelle patte ! quel imaginaire ! Être artiste c'est vivre son émotion à la faveur de ses propres prestation, tout en suscitant celle des autres : ici, c'est parfaitement réussi.
    PS: au delà de la forme classique qu'il adopte presque toujours, j'aurais beaucoup aimé l'entendre surfer sur un thème de jazz (par exemple, à la manière d'Errol GARNER sur le thème de Misty)
    he is an original with a difficult character, but what a touch! what imagination! To be an artist is to experience one's emotion thanks to one's own performance, while arousing that of others: here, it is perfectly successful.
    PS: beyond the classic form that he almost always adopts, I would have liked to hear him surf on a jazz theme (for example, in the manner of Errol GARNER, on the theme of Misty)

    fantastic! Great job! Definitely sounds like both Chopin and Liszt... down to some of the idiosyncratic chord progressions and arpeggios that both of them used.

    3:50 - 4:00 sounds like a Chopin scherzo
    Amazing. I know very few people who can improvise to this kind of level. Have you heard of Gabriela Montero?

    • @michieldpiano
      @michieldpiano  3 роки тому +1

      @MangoJC it is an old improvisation. Now my improvisations do not have any limits... Also I record repertoire. You can check my recordings here on youtube on my channel. According to musicologists my Schumann is the best among the living pianists. As far as I know I am still alive.

  • @rollzroice
    @rollzroice 11 років тому +1

    Quite late voting though - to support the request - for best composers Gershwin & Rachmaninoff.. anything between Rhapsody in Blue or American in Paris.. it'd be always great to listen to your impros

      @AlchemyAtLarge 10 років тому +3

      He most likely wont have a score, hence 'improvisation'

  • @adamtanner2950
    @adamtanner2950 12 років тому

    Can you permit me one request, I've asked soo many people to do this:
    My two favourite composers, Gershwin and Rachmaninoff. I've always wanted to hear Rhapsody in Blue in the style of Rachmaninoff! That would be AMAZING if you could do that!
