What a wonderful profile of our favourite pianist! We have been fortunate to see Jan perform live on five occasions, beginning when he was only 17, and will be flying from Canada to San Diego in January 2024 for his performance of Mozart's Piano Concerto #20. There aren't many artists we'd hop on a plane just to see, but Jan is simply amazing, and #20 is one of my favourite pieces. Can't wait!
Sadly, the 2-year renovation on the San Diego concert hall where Jan was scheduled to perform will not be completed in time for his concert, so it was canceled. We’ll just have to keep an eye out for our next opportunity to witness his amazing talents! 🎶🎼🎵🎹
You are amazing! Your professionalism and talent are truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing your incredible music with us. You are a great inspiration to so many of us! Warm regards!
I just shared his performance last night at Wigmore Hall. What a fantastic naturally focused pianist he is. We all shared the beautiful moment in the hall and it’s absolutely magical. It was like as if I’m standing in front of his paintings - varied personal colours, open space, nature, soul, innovative way of projecting layers of harmony, lineages between Preludes, etc …I can’t stop talking about it. it’s just mesmerising. Bravo and looking forward to the next celebration of his music.
What an inspiration! So talented, but what surprised me, so well-spoken. I could listen to him talk about music for hours. I hope to hear him live one day.
This young man is an old soul and his heart and mind in coherence is definitely illuminated..I'm so mesmerized watching and listening to his music and his interpretations of classical music..🙏🌟👍🇨🇦❤️
definitely one of my favourites, we're living in a golden time of youthful influx of talent. When last did you see so many breathtaking talents hit the world?
My friend and I saw Jan play with the Vancouver Symphony Feb 23. It was an amazing experience! The pieces spanned the whole spectrum of the human emotions and so masterfully communicated. It was mesmerizing. It was clear during the concert that he was giving 100% and he was enjoying it, just as he said during this interview. Thank you Jan!
We live right here in Vancouver, and SO wanted to attend that concert (Mozart Piano Concerto No. 21). But we had to be out of town, and couldn't make it. (Very frustrating, as we live right next door to the Orpheum Theatre!) We're making up for it by flying to San Diego this coming January for his performance of the Mozart Piano Concerto No.20 instead. Jan is indeed mesmerizing (we've seen him 5 times over the past 10 years). Can't wait for #6!!
@@RVgeekslucky you live right in Vancouver. I live in Edmonton and seems that he never plays a concert in Alberta these days. Maybe too close to home? Enjoy your concert experiences.
Frederick C. would be so proud of Jan, and the world is LUCKY to have him. Jan is a maniac on that piano, his fingers fly, he doesn't miss a note, he brings the composers to LIFE. Beethoven would be proud, as would be Amadeus.....Jan comes through brilliantly. 😍😍
It is so interesting what he says about his approach to classical music, that his parents are not musicians and that he nevertheless had a great affection for classical music. I believe that he is extremely intelligent, has a very keen perception and that these intense antennae enable him to be such a great artist. His great feeling and deep access to the composers, his technical ability for enormous virtuosity as well as his extremely deep understanding of the quiet and slow musical movements make him an exceptional musician. All in all, he must have an outstandingly good character, without which he would not have this versatility. I have never met such a young personality before. May God grant him a long and continued successful life
I just found him and I don`t like saying this but, he is greater than I will ever be. I am Not a musician but a painter. People like him makes me humble. I just found a new happy thing in my life. I am a fan. 💙
Verdaderamente eres un genio en la musica clasica y un ser muy espiritual. Felicitaciones Jan que Dios te cuide porque . haces feliz a las generaciones de mi edad y al mismo tiempo a la juventud que tiene el privilegio de gustar del piano y de la musica del gran Ludwig von Beethoven
Such an inspiration! I love how he made all the familiar classics alive in his way! His interpretation of Gaspard de la nuit os my new favorite.. Also in here I can find he’s such an honest sensitive soul..! Thanks for the program DW.
When I talk about Chopin, I usually say that I used to think that I didn't like Chopin. I was wrong. Actually, it was just that I hadn't yet listened to a performance that could move my feelings. Jan Lisiecki was the first one, and later, I came across another performer who could make me feel with Chopin. Of course, I don't understand anything about techniques and academic music, but in the end, aren't feelings what count in art?
I saw Jan play with the Seattle Symphony last night from the front row. Pure magic. I was in awe watching him play. Extremely talented and gifted person.☺️
Jan Lisiecki is such an inspiration to me as a young musician! I particularly love his interpretations of the Chopin Nocturnes and Mendelssohn's Rondo Capriccioso. I hope to see one of his concerts in the future!
Thank you! Didn’t you give this to us a few weeks ago?! It remains very, very interesting, and does not lose anything in the retelling. Mr Lisiecki is a remarkably wise young man. Many thanks, DW.
A lot of times I have no way of cracking into and appreciating a piece until I hear an interpretation that unlocks it for me. The Chopin scherzo in B minor never made any sense to me and just sounded like a bunch of noise until I heard Jan's snippet here. I'll have to go find a full recording and finally appreciate the work.
1:39. Interesting analysis. How I wish he would have added some more romantic perspectives on what makes music great other than the lifelong search for serenity and purity. What about the lamentations and consolations of the tormented soul? I do hope these darker qualities will come later on, especially if he's going to play full Chopin recitals 🙂
An artist's peers are not those of his own age but those of any age who share their own artistic realm, mindset and soul level. There are many qualitative worlds in this one world; the key to any particular world is one's soul quality. My words are for those who see and hear, as Christ said.
Hi! How are you? The rainy season in Korea/Seoul stopped for a while yesterday and today, and there was a heat wave all day. However, there is a weather forecast that the rainy season will start again tomorrow. I wish you good health and good things for the rest of the week. Thank you very much. **
He said it all that classical music is not for young audiences but for older audiences. So why would a young 27 year old guy want to cater to an old audience? All of his female fans will be old women. Yuck.
Him and I are about the same age and he definitely appeals to me. His talent gets me but I'm definitely attracted to his good looks and kind personality too. Haha.

His interview has convinced me that classical music remains safe in the hands of younger gen. of classical pianists. 🎉❤

Some people were born to play music. And it's grand. We are so lucky.

Thanks for your words! We're so glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Oh please Emperor’s is my favorite. I have followed Jan since boyhood.
Macht Spaß, zuzuhören und zuzusehen. Wie immer, eine tolle Musikauswahl und Dokumentation.
im from the city he’s from!! im going to see him next week, im so excited ^^
I am obsessed with him! he plays with soul. and he's beautiful

Thank you Jan for presenting your TRUE artistry to the world. 🙏🎹
A young Maestro 😊
Going to see him perform Chopin in Dallas in March. Thrilled!
Enjoy!

im so freaking jealous
@@carolruiz8279 it was awesome. Hopefully you will have same opportunity some day. 🙂

The music from the great masters flows from your fingers and through your soul.

Yes, we had already uploaded this video a few weeks ago. Now there is an improved version of it.
I hear him play at the age of 18 at Qualicum Beach, and bought one of his cd. Very great pianist.

Estupendo! Bravo!
Отлично! Приятно слышать разумную фразировку, как у солиста, так и у оркестра. Успехов!
a great and inspiring pianist.
Շնորհակալություն: Vielen dank!
Ein begnadeter junger Pianist. Habe ihn gerade in der Kölner Philharmonie mit Beethovens Klavierkonzert No 1 spielen gehört. Einfach phänomenal.
I`m jealous.
❤️🎹dziękuję
Muito lindo. Que maravilha ♥️💪
Donnerwetter ! Was für ein begnadeter Pianist ! Der hat noch viel vor sich - und wird im Laufe der Jahre ruhiger werden ... 😁 😌 😍
"Not changed for the times!" Amen.
Been obsessed and still obsessed

Hi! How are you?
The rainy season in Korea/Seoul stopped for a while yesterday and today, and there was a heat wave all day.
However, there is a weather forecast that the rainy season will start again tomorrow.
I wish you good health and good things for the rest of the week.
Thank you very much. **
Di I detect an "old soul " here ????? I think I DO !!😀😀
how he could produce so much sweat during that short time ?
Fabulous! I think apart from Lang Lang he's the most aggressive in his playing@
He seems lucky that he didn't have to go the route of piano competitions.
GET BUSY 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
SOS 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
