I would argue that from 38-44 is absolutely incredible, but not just because of his incredible balance and voicing in the soprano. He manages, without any mistake, to transfer to melody to the top of the left hand. To me, this is the most incredible, and it really shows his incredible dynamic range, balance, and voicing.

The music is sort of ridiculous kitsch (Tchaikovsky is generally not kitsch but in this case I don't know what else to call it) but it's the way to play it. You can't be careful with this apparent reach for ecstasy.

Plentnev is not only a great pianist, but a conductor as well. I have heard him even in strictly piano repertoire that he performs as "music", and not just a piece for piano. I say "Bravo!"

By far the most interesting pianist of his generation. He made the best ever recording of the Preludes. Same for the Scherzi

I went to so many Rubinstein concerts but never managed to see Horowitz. What a shame!

No one defines that music must stick to the original score.

A true virtuoso in every sense of the word. His interpretations of the Scriabin sonatas are the standard by which all others should be judged. May he Rest In Peace.

Yup. He makes it sing

WRONG NOTES ARE VALID AND GIVE RAW AND REAL EMOTION. NON-ROBOTIC.

i prefer the avant garde take of this. the pianists who are studied to death in only notes are just trick masters not pianists.

So humble, so good ... so missed.

are you willing to sell your channel?

bollocks to say only he can do it. Click bait arsehole

The Uehara recording is much better.

You can hear the many wrong notes almost every bar after 0:28. But it still sounds great. When I was in grade school and preparing for royal conservatory exams, my teacher explained to me this is way performing baroque or classical repertoire is more difficult than Romantic repertoire. You cannot hide wrong notes in Bach or Mozart's pieces, they will be glaringly obvious and you will hear the mistake long after it is made. You can mask wrong notes in Romantic repertoire.

Okay he got one wrong note at 0:54, one at 1:12, a couple at 2:33…the rest is good to me.

I guess I played it better...

Who am I to say anything bad about this guy

What wrong notes?

His sound has always been hard ! very far from Alfred Cortot or Walter Gieseking

Yes, the passion and feeling are definitely there, but technically the performance is a mess! As listeners, we have to ask ouselves, at what point do wrong notes interfere with an artist “conveying the meaning of the music”? I would prefer to hear a passion-filled performance with mistakes (and I’ve heard plenty of them) rather than a note-perfect performance that is ice cold, nevertheless I find that I can only disregard sloppy playing up to a certain point. Most of us tend to be more forgiving with virtuosos we love. Pletnev is magnificent but, passion aside, this was not one of his more brilliant performances.

I learned from Horowitz and Kenny G. that the essence of music is in pianissimo.

Fantastic.

Dinu Lipatti understood that Bach is not Chopin.

Pletnev is one of my favorite musicians…I love this performance!

A pathetic attempt at being funny while faking the playing of one of the best classical pianists in the world today.

Phenomenal playing!

It is a piece written by Monster Hands himself so, wrong notes are a basic result of having normal anatomy.

I don't hear wrong notes at all

М.Плетнев это современный Лист!!!

terrible performance. Passion without technique I can offer too. lol

I couldn't find any.

It's important to remember that the composer didn't write the wrong notes. He/she wrote the right notes. It's up to the performer to play the written notes. A few finger slips along the way are okay--but the composer didn't write them either. It's up to the performer to bring the music to life. If there are enough wrong notes, it's fair to ask who the composer was like when young Adelina Patti sang "Una voce poco fa" with so many additions that Rossini said, "Nice piece who wrote it?" This didn't slow Patti down. She went on to become the dominant soprano in the C19. George Bernard Shaw is very interesting in his music criticism on Patti.

I don't know why he's dropping notes. It's not like this is a difficult piece.

不少古典钢琴家每当弹错了就说那是爵士

When he does it, everyone is calling it a master piece. When I do it I get yelled at for hitting random keys.

Someone can play piano without wrong notes just as Gogol's Çiçikov can correctly read a book.

Bro skipped the tutorial and still slapped

Now we will have someone write this out and play it on a busy railway station, farming emoticons and subscriptions

Expression, passion, etc, in this piece does not depend upon acrobatic harpeggios or else. It is a matter of rhythm, dynamics and balance. Specially if those waste ornaments are out of tune...

I can't help thinking of Eric Morecombe "I played all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order."

thank you

The lad learned that even in the high world of virtuoso piano competitions, politic play a part. Should have toed the mark, then once established and well-off, he could have made waves.

There were wrong notes in there??

Как говорится, если была сыграна не та нота, то следующая определит, была ли она сыграна фальшиво

Beautiful

What this recording really needs is five more microphones.

🎹🖐👋👍

İt was not wrong

Nope you can't play the piano like hitting it all over the place with a stick.
