I feel so sad that he started making more mistakes at the end - not as a complaint, I just feel sorry for him that he's worked so hard to produce such a brilliant performance only to taint it near the end due to nerves.
I'm sad for him too... that said, in his misfortune, he consoles me for the wonderful mistakes I can make on this piece and on others 😁 His other performance was perfect and I thank him eternally for that.
@Anne I am well aware. Which is why I said it wasn't a complaint. I'm sure Lugansky himself would rather have had all of the notes right-any pianist strives for perfection.
@Андрей Бумецов And that is why my dad quit his career as a pianist.. He can't cope even with the minor mistakes he makes. The last performance he did was almost 20 years ago... Vladigerov Piano Concerto No.1, in Italy. He told me no one even knew who Vladigerov is and the audience didn't even care for the piece. He said this was the final blow for him and quit performing the next day. He told me that coping with mistakes is hard but accepting ignorant audience is even harder.
@Андрей Бумецов Totally agree, its so difficult to find pianists these days that can play with real passion, most of them sound very fake and forced and that's no the point of music at all, its so sad
@@alanpotter8680 I feel so sad for your dad that it takes so much patience and effort practice that difficult piece for audience and at the time end , nothing much difference is seen in audience after all 😢
You can see in his eyes at the end how he's remembering his 100% flawless performance in Japan manye years ago with sorrow.... I played this piece.... I know that pain of regret too well.... I never played this piece flawlessly from beginning to end, even in complete privacy. This was the last piece I ever played before I stopped practicing 5 years ago. a 15--year long piano education that made everyone around think I'm the next great thing... I traded it for a comfortable job at a bank, and a higher education in finance. There are rare moments when I remember what I used to do with my fingers and wonder where would I be if I never quit... but I'm 25, still young, maybe there is still time for me to remember the old days of glory, and maybe, if I work hard enough, I will play this piece as good as Lugansky played it in Japan in 90's....
bro, you're 25. stop whining and get back on the piano if that's what makes you happy. and i mean this in the nicest way possible. you may not be a concert pianist anymore, but you can sure as hell still play the pieces you want. and even start a vst channel. i'm 35 and just getting back into it after quitting at 16, when my highest achievement was maple leaf rag and claire de lune. so you can do it lol
why dont you still play? im studying psychology and that is where my future lies, however, i plan to play piano till i die. id love to play this piece one day, i don't need to be a concert pianist for this to happen. Do not fix yourself within the past of people's admiration of you and your piano skills. "A man without a vision for the future, always returns to his past"
Up until now.... I've never heard anypiece more perfect than this!! And...굉장히 dramatic하고 toxicity이 강해서 들어도 들어도 무한정 계속 듣고 싶어요 I really really really respect!!!!! (저는 원래 댓글을 달지 않습니다만...)
Just want to ask, Is this song hard? Because I’m going to learn it SOON {Probably tomorrow or tonight...} I’m looking at videos of this piece, so I can just calm down a bit... it looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOO hard! 😭 ( I’m copy and pasting this comment to videos that are playing this piece on RUclips so I could get more answers :D)
I’ve started learning it a week ago, you probably have too by now, but I’ll answer anyways: I’ve gotten to the third page and it’s honestly not as hard as it looks, I can play it perfectly at 80bpm, shouldn’t be a problem for you if you’ve got a solid repertoire
@Davide Nalini Hey! Thx for your reply! 😊😊😊 I actually only learned two pages... Anyways, thank you! I feel much better now, I get panicked when I learn a new song that looks PRETTY hard, since you told me,,, I think I’m fine! Thx so much!!!!❄️❄️❄️ I wish good luck for you! ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
@Davide Nalini ☺️☺️☺️☺️ yes.. you are very right, my parents tell me to practice everyday for at least 3 hours... I can’t really stand it, but they say that the more I practice, the more my piano improves. THX sooo much!!!! 😊😊😊😊😁😁😁😁
Lugansky is the king of this piece!
This performance might not be as clean as his other one on this channel, but it's still one of my favorites.
i totally agree with u
Indeed! I had heard _some_ Lugansky before, but this piece got bookmarked instantly (although the one with the prelude as well)

Rachmaninov unleashed a torrent of notes in this piece and Lugansky captures every one and creates an unforgettably passionate storm. Bravo, Nikolai!
I think no one can play this piece as great as Lugansky...
이기원 definitely
Lisitsa ? The Queen of Rachmaninoff
@@baraburas i hope it was a joke...
a good joke
baraburas no lugansky is far far better
No other Pianist understood Rachmaninoff better than MR LUGANSKY .....he is an early legend in our modern Time .
.... Vladimir Horowitz
Considering only
Pianist of pur time
Our
He was not happy at all and got so nervous playing after the minor mistakes . Sometimes perfectionists are their worst enemy , he is out of this world

No questions, he truly is the grand master of this piece. Before there was Black Metal, there was Rach. Moment Musicaux #4 :)
Darkthone were clearly influenced by Rach! haha
Jesus those clear dynamic distinctions are phenomenal.
Even one of the best pianist in the world struggle to play this piece, but the ability to recover the mistakes is truly impressive!
8 years later and still the best perfromer
lugansky set the bar so high with the other performance on this channel, that no other version sounds as amazing
Fantastic. He owns this piece.
Absolutely fantastic.
he is a true Russian
no, he from Ukraine
D A N D Y No difference in soul.
D A N D Y no he was born in moscow
Magnifique ! Brillant ! Subtile ! Je réécoute et revois avec plaisir.

Is he playing with an adidas trousers ? is he as slav as that ?
Fantastic!! Thank you. Adorable performance.

Saw him play in 2008. He looks a lot older now
Lmao 12 years passed ofcourse hes older now
time passes quickly
@@西宮硝子-k8l yes, but he only looked to be around 30 or 40, but now he looks closer to 60 or 70

루간스키는 진짜... 와.. 라는 말 밖에 안나오네
The Goat nobody plays like him op 16 n 4
seems like he was a bit nervous after a few mistakes... but listen to him in 2002 he is the best by far

Oh Wow 😳!
Самый лучший пианист в современности!!! Я всех пианистов сравнил он лучший !!!
По мне так это уж далеко не самое лучшее исполнение!
@@МаксимБогачев-ж9т quem é o melhor pra você?

Incredible ❤️.....
Tek kelimeyle: Muazzam.

Without 2:13 this is my prefer version of this piece, but not the perfetc one of Nikolai
Sublime...
There are 10 people who disliked this performance
16 now
i am here just for his "mistakes"
THE W GREATEST LUGANSKY&RAFFMANINOFF!
너무 좋다....
Just want to ask,
Is this song hard? Because I’m going to learn it SOON {Probably tomorrow or tonight...} I’m looking at videos of this piece, so I can just calm down a bit... it looks
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO hard! 😭 ( I’m copy and pasting this comment to videos that are playing this piece on RUclips so I could get more answers :D)
So if you guys see this comment a lot on this piece in RUclips, ITS NOT A SCAM.

Piano Master thanks, you too, also, remember that you can do anything (almost) with enough practice
@Davide Nalini ☺️☺️☺️☺️ yes.. you are very right, my parents tell me to practice everyday for at least 3 hours... I can’t really stand it, but they say that the more I practice, the more my piano improves. THX sooo much!!!! 😊😊😊😊😁😁😁😁
1:42 the famous karate chop technique 😂
not even rach could play this as well as lugansky
Kurton Pizdic steady on
Bet you Horowitz could if there was a damn recording of him
evidence?
U dont know
❤️
de fábula!
Wow, even masters make mistake!
qien te conose
На слуху только Мацуев других нет
Kinda reminds me of Vladimir Horowitz
Natalie
Lugansky is obviously better, insult to him
Has Horowitz played this piece?
This time he did not play every note rach wrote
Lugansky played this very well. But my favorite is Idil Biret’s. She plays like a wizard... Check her interpretation on RUclips.
:)
Reis yaslanmis
אני לא מבין מי מצליח לשמוע מוזיקה פה הוא פשוט מבפים את הפסנטר
Awesome but his other performance on youtube is slightly better.. also i prefer bits of lola astanovas in places
Lola can be only student for Lugansky
Увы. Но Луганский переоценён.
Мамка твоя переоцененa.
P.S. максимум цена ей 100 руб. в час, не более:)
отвратительное исполнение, типичный трафаретчик
Quem tem o melhor desempenho pra você?
Not that good.
But good in moments. So a lot to learn from him.
@@avid9530 Look at his other performance from like 13 years ago? That one is perfect imo
Lugansky played this a week ago in Moscow Philarmony, it was just out of world
