Pieces such as this are so beautiful and for someone to express this emotion, in my opinion, as well as this, truely are unbelievable..... it just makes you remember how incredible Franz Lisz was to actually compose something which, without a doubt, touches everyones hearts
I never heard such a deep interpretation! From 1:30 min, he starts a great emotional crescendo where I can hear an ardent soft voice exactly with the initial D sharp . What to say about 3:01 min, ? A nostalgic moment, not too soft as most pianista play, but still with beautiful and profound cantabile.
this is seriously the best i have ever heard this beautiful piece played - percfect feel for the melody, and GREAT timing + dynamics ... as i listened to this, time just stopped for me, then time fast forwarded as the piece finished ... fantastic :D well done you :):)
You'd have to be pitch perfect to notice a mistake. I did hear one or two but perfection doesn't exist. But this performance has to be one of best i've ever heard.
Emotion wise yes this brings a whole different performance which I enjoyed. But the errors really doesn’t seem befit the best version. Without errors could be your best version(and would be even better). For mine imo is Arthur rubeinsteins. Truly phenomenal and imo the best version of liebestraum
@@kyroh-bf2tf Do you actually play the actual piano? It is very physically challenging. I believe that some pieces can really only be properly played by a man, or a woman with a very pronounced upper body strength. Liebestraume I could manage in my youth but Polonaise Heroique was a real punishment; my neck, arms, hands & shoulders would hurt after practice. I had to practice the sections separately & rarely played its entirety in one go. I've heard it played by female pianists but I never was ad impressed as when Horowitz & Rubenstein played it.
@@cynthiagonzalez658 It is not physically demanding people act as if the piano is a full workout you dont need ANY upper body strength to play the piano. it is all about your technique
@@kyroh-bf2tf The techniques demand strength. Have you actually played Polonaise in Aflat major? Have you seen how Rubenstein plays it? How his left hand pounds down in keys from three feet up & he almost stands up on the fortissimo parts? Boy, I think you're playing chopsticks only.
@@cynthiagonzalez658 And yet nobody plays the way Rubinstein does in that piece. If you understand how to use the weight of your entire body then strength is much less of an important factor. When you play completely loose, the strength is from momentum and weight and not brute strength. Of course sections here and there are the exception but someone with good skill can bypass most of their strength limitations.
To describe the feelings drawn out by Mr. Kissin from this one piece: passionate, sensual, delicate, and tender. Truly a "love dream," and Liszt must be applauding!
There are far more mistakes than this in Kissin's performance (if you were trying to show off your brilliant ear). Frankly, I couldn't care, because it hardly detracts at all from the heart felt and subtly passionate performance. Brilliant!
@SKAndland, You're totally right. One cannot account for petty little mistakes when someone plays with all their heart and soul. It doesn't change the fact that he really makes the instrument sing.
just finished watching the video of his concert in Tokyo, 1991, and he was much younger then. His interpretation then was already very nice, but a little bit shallow and technique-showing compared to his interpretation now. It is amazing to see how a great pianist grows and changes over time.
This is the best I've heard Kissen play in terms of feeling and expression. While he has always had an impressive command of the piano, I've always thought that finding the best interpretation has eluded him.
Just wanted to say I think that the company that keeps making people take down this video are completely, utterly stupid. Its BECAUSE of this video that I might actually go out and buy something recorded by this artist. DUH! KEUDER, thanks for posting! Lovely recording; this definitely proves that a "mistake" is most certainly tolerable, because of the overall interpretation and playing. Just magnificent.
why is it that when Evgeny Kissin plays a piece he always makes it seem twice as difficult and twice as beautiful?
Great pianists can do anything with even something as simple as the 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' melody.
Love it..excelso¡¡¡¡
Kissin is my favorite pianist. His musicality and use of rubato were superb here.
H s brilliant and an amazing musical prodigy
That is because he Kissin is gew from Russia!
Pieces such as this are so beautiful and for someone to express this emotion, in my opinion, as well as this, truely are unbelievable..... it just makes you remember how incredible Franz Lisz was to actually compose something which, without a doubt, touches everyones hearts
i know Im kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good place to stream new series online ?
Kissin is just an absolutely unbelievable musician. So amazing.
The melody was so Germanic, and the difficulty so Liszt, and the performance so sublime. Simply beautiful.
Kissin and Rubinstein's recording is the best..
Lang lang is better
This genius finds polyphony in every piece he plays... incredible...
Das ist so... schön. Ich habe keine Wörter, um das zu beschreiben! Er spielt diese Musik so, wie kann niemand auf die Erde, außer ihn spielen!

A nostalgic moment, not too soft as most pianista play, but still with beautiful and profound cantabile.
I think that, if played with this amount of passion and pure emotion, this piece can make anyone fall in utter love.
this is seriously the best i have ever heard this beautiful piece played - percfect feel for the melody, and GREAT timing + dynamics ... as i listened to this, time just stopped for me, then time fast forwarded as the piece finished ... fantastic :D well done you :):)
This was one of the first pieces I learned to play (obviously much simplified!) and hearing it again makes me really, really miss my piano :(
It’s been a decade, do you have a piano again? This piece is incredible and the ability to play a musical instrument is a gift from god ❤
And yet this performance is much better than most "perfect" ones out there.
I've watched a lot of renditions.. but this easily wipes the floor with anyone else. Easily.
Those slight mistakes are the jewels of a live performance. It really adds a human nature to the music. Everyone makes mistakes, even the pros.
I dont hear any mistakes
@@Ngaberkuda They left this comment 10 years ago they are not getting back to you lmao. There's a mistake at 1:41 for example
You'd have to be pitch perfect to notice a mistake. I did hear one or two but perfection doesn't exist. But this performance has to be one of best i've ever heard.
Amazing... His rubato and feel is just spot on!
Words can't possibly described just how beautiful this performance is! Marvelous!
The best version, Liszt could be proud of this.
Emotion wise yes this brings a whole different performance which I enjoyed. But the errors really doesn’t seem befit the best version. Without errors could be your best version(and would be even better). For mine imo is Arthur rubeinsteins. Truly phenomenal and imo the best version of liebestraum
Awesome, fabulous he played that!!
Nobody plays Liebestraume no.3 better than Evgeny Kissin
Well, I just came from Rubinstein, so......
Rubinstein for the W.
How about Kun-woo Paik from S Korea? ruclips.net/video/OELTYcgIORA/видео.html
Try Barenboim one. He made me cry
Van Cliburn does!
Maravilhoso! Saudades de quem nunca mais retornará pra mim. Belíssima interpretação!
the emotion this guy has wow
Beautifully interpreted, felt, and expressed.
The best performance ever! I’m learning it also , I want to play the same as you thoooo🥺❤️
I just love the feeling...
his emotions are so alive and you can see it so clearly it's amazing
Now, I'm fine tuning it for my recital this Saturday! It is so physically and emotionally demanding...but I love every second of it :D
the correct terms are technically and musically demanding

My favorite version
Beautiful..beautiful..beautiful..that's all I can say! I wish i can play like he did. Thank you for posting.
Great performance, he is one of the best pianists
I totally used that performance to enhace mine with that music. Congrats kissin
Liebestraum means "Love dream (a)". Liszt was right on xD. This is my favorite piece ever and Kissin's interpretation is my new favorite hehe.
Stunning
To describe the feelings drawn out by Mr. Kissin from this one piece: passionate, sensual, delicate, and tender. Truly a "love dream," and Liszt must be applauding!
Evertime I listen his music...I'll see sparkling sound.
He must have done this as an encore as flowers on the piano. Utter class
here´s the "ä" of Liebesträume
Très grande et belle dynamique émotive. Bravissimo Maestro Kissin.
MardkoMBR : je suis tout à fait d’accord !!!
I remember watching this video about 7 years ago, and since then, I dreamed of learning this piece.
In 14 years you could have if you put your mind to it! I hope you did :)
Esecuzione perfetta e tecnicamente la migliore eseguita che io abbia mai ascoltato. L' espressione e il tempo sono perfetti.Bravissimo.
learn it! I've never played a Liszt song in my life (mostly Debussy and Chopan) and his songs are so fun to play that you learn them in no time!
My favorite interpretation of my favorite piece from my favorite composer by my favorite pianist!
I can't even describe this... so beautiful
BRAVO!!! I got teary eyed there!!! *sniff sniff*
Evgeny plays the Liebestraume really wonderful, he is the best!!!
a master of the keys. Truly inspirational!
Think of the bass melody as the story or plot of the dream, and the treble arpeggios as the heartbeat of the dreamer.
Wow, by a lot, the best I ever heard!..!....
I might be in love with this man.
So mad they dont show his hands playing the second cadenza.. X(But yeah, so brilliant!
Favorite interpretation! 5 STARS!
he is the best on the whole planet!!!!!
Evgeny Kissin playing the piano softly, i had to watch this.
There are far more mistakes than this in Kissin's performance (if you were trying to show off your brilliant ear). Frankly, I couldn't care, because it hardly detracts at all from the heart felt and subtly passionate performance. Brilliant!
The error after the first cadenza was pretty obvious tbh but good regardless.
this song is so difficult to play (I´m learning it right now!!!) that I admire this guy... he plays it like if it were so easy!!!
God! If i played like this!!! Love it!!!
@SKAndland, You're totally right. One cannot account for petty little mistakes when someone plays with all their heart and soul. It doesn't change the fact that he really makes the instrument sing.
I really enjoy this music, the best.
oh! this is REALLY beautiful!
@howtoplayitsa Or if I could grow his hair cut, I would'nt even care to play the hole piece ;) love both...
my favorite piece of Lizt, thank for this excellent interpretation
Easily my favorite interpretation of this piece. I am usually not a huge fan of Kissin because he plays to fast for me, but he hit this right on!
just finished watching the video of his concert in Tokyo, 1991, and he was much younger then. His interpretation then was already very nice, but a little bit shallow and technique-showing compared to his interpretation now. It is amazing to see how a great pianist grows and changes over time.
It's very very beautiful! Felicitation for the pianist!!!...
1:22 is amazing
It's great comparing this version to the one he played when he was a teenager and listening to how his feelings toward this piece changed.
This is the best I've heard Kissen play in terms of feeling and expression. While he has always had an impressive command of the piano, I've always thought that finding the best interpretation has eluded him.
Tears start to fell as I listened to this beautiful interpretation, I like kissin interpretation the most.
I enjoyed his interpretation.
Bravissimo!!!!!!!!!!
simply wonderful !!!!!!!!!!!!
best best and best
one of the better, kissin dosent dissapoint
Grande interprete!!!!! Meraviglioso questo brano suonato così!!!
As someone currently learning this, I particularly like this version
Incredibly exciting, passionate rendition!
beautiful
WOOOHOOO this is the BEST!!!
magnifique !!!
when i grow up i wanna be him :D
always a magnificent performance.
Maravilhoso! Ele toca com a alma!
Best Liebestraume
Great song, great performance!
Well of course it's not a song - there is no one singing! It's music - instrumental music.
Thanks for the correction Devon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Es un verdadero genio y pianista. El mejor!!!❤
The only thing better than the music is his magnificent hair
É uma das interpretações mais brilhantes e sensível ao meu espírito, essa que vem das mãos e da alma de Evgeny Kissin. 🙏
parfaitement!
Замечательно, Женечка! Давно Вас не слышала, теперь уже так не сыграю, руки!
Thank you... this is so inspiring!!!
Yes, I "lieb" this too. I think this is the "best".
Just wanted to say I think that the company that keeps making people take down this video are completely, utterly stupid.

god i love this guy !
Love him!
もう10年以上こちらで聴いてますが、飽きません。
-- Empreint de nostalgie, comme des images d'enfance, peut-être dans la Datcha de l'Oncle Vania, à l'ombre de la Cerisaie. --
greatest pianist ever.
I played it when I was young. Sadly can't anymore.
magnifique!!!!!!!!!!!!vraiment magnifique!!!!!!!!cest le reve d'amour le plus joli dans le monde entier!!franchement bravo!!!!!!!!!
His only love is love to music.
That is why he can play it like true ˝love dreams˝.
